The 50/2 design, in my opinion, is the one 50 that shows the most dramatic improvement optically from the M to A models. In fact, I would tend to suggest the A 50/2 as a very cost effective and (as gfen has suggested) very portable little normal lens. (If I wrote for Consumer Reports - <g>, I'd make the A 50/2 a "Best Buy"...) Fred
