I am not trying to discourage you - just trying to tell it like I see it. Some of the Rokinon stuff is pretty damned sharp - but all of the sharp lenses are going to be manual focus and some have very, very weird distortion (quality of the optics isn't so great). You will see a LOT of sharp primes - obviously primes are easier to engineer than zooms, because the lens only has to do one focal length. If you find something for a steal, give it a go. Just be careful and definitely pick up an adapter for each lens you have, you really don't want to be threading those things all the time - the shavings on the crappy adapters is ridiculous.
