I've checked it many times with my friends.

If someone has only f5.6, you gain nothing, as good digicams have often f2.0-2.8 lenses... > 3) continuous AF? Does it have it? Most of modern, hi-end digicams have it, I don't know how effective that is though... > 4) EVF sucks True. > 5) the lens seems very good and optimised for the small sensor They are often optimised, althought Sony F828 shows excessive amount of CA, so that's not as good... -- Best Regards Sylwek
