the la ea2 and sdeadyshot

16-50 is the Alpha lens from the Sony A77. It works well with the FS700 so I think maybe it will work fine with the EA50. NO Steadyshot. The Sony Alpha cameras have Steadyshot stabilisation in the camera body not the lens. The lens is f2.8 constant aperture but when using autofocus the lens will be fixed at f3.5.

Hi

The iris is not 100% smooth like an e-mount lens. It will move in small steps and can make a noise when adjusted quickly. The e-mount lenses in comparison are very smooth on the iris and very quiet in operation. The 16-50 Alpha lens is very quick with the phase detection autofocus of the EA2 adapter but sometimes the focus transition doesn't looks as nice and as smooth as the e-mount kit lens focus transitions. Also remember not having the Steadyshot built into the 16-50 lens makes it not as smooth to shoot with for hand-held work. Sharpness? The lens is very sharp so no complaints there.
