For general shooting on a crop sensor camera, my favorite lens is around a 35mm. That's a really comfortable all around lens for anything from landscapes to portraits. The Sony 16-50 looks like a great choice for around $550, it's f2.8 constant which is very doable in low light situations and the focal range will work great with anything from landscape shots to portraits.
Hope that helps. |
Thanks!
Are you talking about the SAL1650? That's for Alpha cameras. The only 16-50 for E-mounts is the new SELP1650 which is a compact motorized zoom, and the kit lens for the NEX-7. It's got f/3.5-5.6
