Sony 16-50mm f/2.8 lens reviewed by Kurtmunger.

We didn?t talk a lot about the new A-mount 16-50mm f/2.8 lens. So let?s take a deep look at the lens by reading the latest review from our friend Kurt Munger (Click here). He tested the lens on the probably last ever made Sony DSRL with optical viewfinder?the A580. He posted many interesting detailed test about the lens. I am not going to disclose here all his findings but in short he writes: ?Probably the best quality of this lens is the nice contrast and resolution at F/2.8-4.? In fact, there isn?t a reason to stop it down further if sharpness is your main concern, depth of field of course is another matter.? Low-light hand-held shooters will love this lens.? Other nice optical qualities include low light fall-off, no coma, and manageable distortion at longer focal lengths?.

Good work Sony?.we now need more of these kind of new high quality lenses!

While Sony has hard times to ship the A77+16-50mm lens kit it?s a bit easier to find the A77 body and lens in Stock as separate items. The lens is in Stock almost everywhere:
In USA-Canada at Amazon, Sonystore, Adorama, BHphoto, and Sony CA (Click on shop names to visit the lens search page)
In Europe at Amazon DE, Sony DE, Amazon UK, Amazon FR, Sony FR, Sony NL and Sony IT.
In Asia at Digitalrev and Amazon JP.

Of course this is a limited list of stores I check almost daily. Can?t really check every little store of the world :) Feel free to complete the list by adding your links to the comment section!
