>>4257186that was a bad copy of the 40mm. the first one i had was very sharp. part of the reason i ditched sony was the stupid quality variation between lenses became more apparent as time went on.
>random 50mm f1.8 is visibly sharper than random 55mm f1.8, keep neither>buy 40mm f2.5, is good>trade for another lens>buy another later>its not so good, almost like nothing is ever in focus>buy 85mm f1.8, return and buy it again because first copy has way more CA than reviews and is noticeably soft>go through 2x20mm f1.8s over decentering>etcalso, i think the ibis or the autofocus motor might have started to gradually die at that point. it did fall in a lake and come to me with a lot of body damage. usable for $600.
