Carl Zeiss 24mm f/1.7 for NEX E mount system

[AndyWest]

I have had a good look round the net but I can't find the info i'm after. Does anyone know if the upcoming Carl Zeiss 24mm f/1.7 for NEX will be AF or MF? I'm praying for AF but it wouldn't be the end of the world if it's MF but i already have a 25mm f/4 Voigtlander which is super sharp. Would be nice to have the f/1.7 though.

Also any idea/estimates on price? I recon it's going to be at least £850! eeek!!

Bump back to top. This lens has apparently been seen on a Video cam on the net somewhere so it shouldn't be long before release.

Anyone got news?

I saw a photo somewhere and it looked like AF. I remember thinking, hmm, perhaps I shouldn't have got shot of the NEX-5 so quick.

can't imagine it being anything other than AF capable with the option of MF if you prefer.
