Originally posted by Mikesul It is a tough decision. I also planned to sell my DA*55. I have the new D FA 50 f1.4 and it is as good ad everyone says but I decided to keep the DA*55 because it is so much more portable. I may eventually relent and let it go but for now I have two outstanding 1.4 fiftyish lenses which I can use in different situations. Maybe too much luxury!
Well, if you don't *have* to sell them, they end up building up. Yes I love the portability of the DA*55, but with A50 1.2 and Revuenon 55-1.2 here on hand too.....it's not really very compelling to keep them all.
No need to decide immediately anyway here, think I will hoard for a bit longer. There's something just very natural about the DA*55 images that I do love.
