I just found an A 50/1.7 for $45. I'm not positive, but if I'm not

they've been going for a bit more than that lately on eBay.
yeah, that's right
Of course, if I had it, it would be my 3rd 50mm prime lens between my
K 50/1.4
and my M 50/2. Is the A 50/1.7 good enough to justify having yet
another 50mm
at that price?
depends how much you value the A setting; between my A 50/1.7 and my M
50/1.4 the former is on the camera half the time and the latter hasn't
been on the camera in months (it may go on the GH1 because
auto-aperture doesn't make a difference when adapted to M 4/3)
Well, as much as I couldn't afford to, I went ahead and bought the
thing. I guess I won't know how much I value having the A setting on it
until I use it. I'm guessing I'll like it, though, since I won't have to
remember to stop down between shots with it. That'll be nice.
