The guy I bought it from was using it on his NEX5n, with an adapter.

Thanks Laurentiu! I think I prefer the B&W too, now, but it seems most prefer colour. Ahh well, thank goodness for differences eh?

Those lenses are super sharp!! If you like the 55/1.8 then you will LOVE the 50/1.4!!!

Is that the FA you mean? I've been lusting after it for a while, but more than that, the DA*55mm f/1.4 :) The K55 is a sublimation :)
