Comments about Sony Sony 135mm f/1.8 Sonnar T* a (alpha) Mount Digital SLR Telephoto Lens with Hood, by Carl Zeiss.:

I rented one of these lenses a few times and it gave me everything I wanted in sharpness and unsharpness. It delivers strong images outdoors and in the studio. The background in portrait shots is just a set of soft blurs with the lens wide open, no matter what kind of junk is back there. Fun!

Comments about Sony Sony 135mm f/1.8 Sonnar T* a (alpha) Mount Digital SLR Telephoto Lens with Hood, by Carl Zeiss.:

Sony's Zeiss Sonnar 135mm/1.8 lens is sharp and fast. It's simply a beautiful lens. When paired with the built-in sensor stabilization in the Sony a900 and a700 cameras it's perfect for hand-held low light photography. Not only is this lens faster than Canon and Nikon lenses in this focal length, it's sharper and built like a Swiss-watch.
