Great price for Sony's own moderately fast wide angle prime for E-mount full frame cameras. Not the top of line f/1.4 GM, but definitely worth it at this price.

This is a $750 lens that's commonly on sale elsewhere for $650, but not $500...

International, but otherwise not sure why it's priced the way it is. Nothing indicates it to be used or factory damaged.

Good Deal?

Weird that it's nowhere to be found (new, at that equivalent price) at the Amazon.co.uk site...

It's grey market, so that means no USA warranty. But still a great price!

Ah, that would explain it. That's a trade-off I'm comfortable with considering the price.

I have the 85, so it's great to hear they're in the same league. I'm still waffling on the old 50/1.8... I've heard very meh things, but it's also so cheap.

Yeah I don't understand what shenanigans are going on, but it's been on the US site wavering between $490 and $510 for a few days. I just got it in the mail today and it's definitely a brand new lens.

For context (yes I know there's no time machine).

I was able to get the warrantied US version of lens at $535 with an .edu address from adorama a year ago.

Beautiful lens that pretty much lives on my camera.
