    Price doesn't always determine how good a product

    This lens does everything they claim it does! Quiet, responsive, edge to edge sharpness and for what you will probably use this lens for, more than meets the need. Especially for the price. 1.8 is about a stop and a half faster than the 1.4 in real life terms. Most times you don't need it. It's one of Sony's better values. Buy it while you can. They always find a reason to get you to buy the new lens when what you have is perfectly good.
