it takes lesser key strokes for me to type Sony than it is to type Nikon, hence, lesser strain on keyboard.

Nikon appears earlier in the dictionary than Sony.

both equally have 2 syllabus.

Nikon is still readable even if its spelt backwards, Sony still can be read, just a lot harder.

*larikkkkkkkkkkkkkkk*

dont have to headache over such numbers if you're not much of a technical guy. having hands on shooting is just as good a learning tool..

lwliam, im loving the wides-ness of the 28mm... but it doesnt appear to be as sharp as the 50mm....

hmm, not sure bout that, but normally at that angle, when shot from a distance, the sharpness is still tolerable...

even with close ups, its sharp enough for me. this is taken with mt 28mm

focusing screen is a screen that is placed above the mirror and below the OVF, effectively right in between the mirror and OVF.

one of them is a type of split screen, its purpose is used mainly in manual focusing, where there is usually a split screen, u turn the focusing ring until the image on both sides of the screen lines up and is in focus. u can see this mostly in older day slrs where AF capable lenses and bodies are still very young.


Added on June 24, 2010, 7:25 pmon FF alphas, you can easily swap different screens for different usages, for example, like the one i mentioned above.

so far, i know of sony provided focusing screens are G, L and M types
