This is a handheld indoor shot. Body is Sony SLT-A55 and steadyshot is on. I just tested very wide apertures from F1.8 to F2.8 in both lenses.
Sony 50 is better than Minolta 50 only in the first shot where Minolta is set to F1.4 and Sony is F1.8 and this is only normal. Minolta is also known to be soft in F1.4 anyway.
However Minolta beats Sony when its stopped even to F1.7. In the second comparison Minolta is at F1.7 and Sony is at F1.8 yet, Minolta is still much sharper.
And it stays sharper in the following comparisons when both lenses were stopped to F2 and F2.8.
Minolta 50 1.4 also produces more punchy colors in comparison to Sony 50mm 1.8. If you zoom into especially reds in the flowers and also check blue background, I'm sure you'll also agree. [Review by Sinan Ozturk]
