I agree. It costs the same as the humongous Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DN E-mount and likely the latter won't perform any better. We have to compare apples to apples.

I'm very happy with my Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN but the Sony 14/1.8 GM + 20/1.8 G set is a faster alternative.


And the 14/1.8 and 24/1.4 faster yet That's what I am going with.

Question to all: I pre-ordered this new GM, and I rarely pre-order. I used my paypal balance and was immediately charged. I thought one isn't typically charged till shipment. Thoughts? It is because I used paypal not a CC?
