I would like to have a WATE for sure but I just can't get to the pricing. Now with all this, looks like I'll never get one. Lol

I would have to sell or trade the Cv 15 and reluctantly my Loxia 21. Than I'm still short 1500 dollars. Stupid me I helped make the WATE famous years ago. Lol


Hi Guy,

Some of us decided not to get the Sony FE 16-35mm and bought the WATE instead. We saved ourselves the roulette of not getting a good FE 16-35, didn't purchase the Loxia 21mm, didn't purchase the CV 15mm III, and won't purchase the Batis 18mm. Ultimately we saved the headaches of also gettng a good Loxia 21mm, a good CV15mm III, and a good Batis 18mm. So, we saved on the merry-go-round of trying to get good copies and may well have paid less or only a bit more than those that purchased and decided to keep several of the mentioned Sony, Zeiss, and CV lenses. Plus we have benefitted from having a smaller and lighter package in a single lens.
