Hi Shel, glad to hear the new DSLR is OK.
The A50/1.7 is very little like the M version.
More plastic, which is mostly evident in the feel
of the aperture ring.
Focus feel is OK and image quality is very good.
On the D where you adjust aperture from the body
it's a very pleasant lens to use.
If you plan to adjust aperture manually you''ll
be happier with the M version.
