I currently have just the 16-50 for my a6000 having sold my Sony 35mm 1.8. I need a macro lens so I can scan film. I have an old Canon FD 70-210 F4 macro but its very soft in corners. The only macro option thats decently priced is the Sony 30mm 3.5 macro. The other option would be to get one of the Sigma DN lenses like the 30mm 2.8 or the 30mm 1.4 and get extension tubes, that way I get both the macro lens and back a decent general purpose lens.
What I dont know is how the sharpness of the Sigmas will hold up across the frame to the Sony when being used as a macro with the tubes. I've read that macro lenses tend to be better quality for the money but I have little experience with them
