Sony/Minolta 50 f1.4 in A mount - use with an adapter and it'll AF for you too. The rendering is lovely, although it suffers a bit of coma and isn't especially sharp.

Are you getting on to the size of the Sony 55mm f1.8 once the adapter is fitted? That's the problem with the Rokkors and Zuikos etc, once you add the adapter they're the size of a Sony AF f1.8.

Possibly a touch smaller, but otherwise yes. It's lighter than the 55 because of the plastic body.

Nice shots. I’ve always admired your Mark1 Escort. Very tasteful restoration.

Thank you Stephen. I'm actually a little uncomfortable with it because it looks too unreal, like something AI might have created, although it isn't generated.

It’s lighter and less contrasty than I would process it but in my opinion it suits the scene perfectly. A bit ethereal if that’s the right word.

I'm still considering a 24mm f/1.4 and wondering if that Aurora AF 24mm F1.4 will be worth a look? I've seen some samples from their 35mm f/1.4 and they look good, so that's encouraging. I'm guessing the price will be in the £450+ region? I can get the Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 GM for £669 and rather than a stepping motor it has a Direct Drive SSM motor. The price seems not too far apart.
