Very good but bokeh highlights are a weakness.
Yes but I have yet to see a nice bokeh below 50mm.

In the Sony section it'll be a full format test I think.

85mm F2.8 will be in FF section? I hope it's also in APSC section. Most people own APSC cameras -- not full frame.

I didn't say that it'll be the 85/2.8.

Klaus,



Nice review but just something to add on this lens...



The 30mm f/2.8 DT Macro actually has full-time manual focus override like an SSM lens. While it won't support a camera's DMF menu feature (or AF/MF button) because of the SAM motor, you CAN override the focus manually at any time. There's apparently a clutch in there somewhere.



Shocking, I know, but it behaves just like the Tamron 60mm f/2 Macro and not like the other SAM lenses.

Thanks for this useful note on both the Sony 30mm and Tamron 60mm macros.
