QUOTE(lwliam @ Oct 7 2010, 08:43 PM) on my 11mm, there will be some part of the filter holder visible. turned to about 12-13mm, it will be gone. or there is a thinner series from Cokin, but im guessing that it will be more expensive Thanks William for the suggestion.

QUOTE(iamKiet @ Oct 7 2010, 07:33 PM) I don't think so,if it's f42 replacement,it should be around the same price as current f42,just like what albnok mentioned. There are plenty of photokina2010 photos in google before getting any of the filter system, make sure your lense can take in the filter in the first place Don't know what model,looks like a f42 replacement for me. Any UWA users here can suggest me a filter system for landscape? For example Cokin P system? Or Tian Ya perhaps? Do the filter holders cause vignetting on UWA lenses? Thanks for the info,I am FUTURE new learner in UWA  |

QUOTE(Newbieeeeee @ Oct 7 2010, 10:29 PM) oh i see.. So sal lenses = manual focus? No motor? it is not manual focus, but the gears are driven by a motor from the camera body instead of motor from inside the lens as found in a SAM lens.so, because of this, SAL lenses on NEX adapters cannot be auto focused as the adapters does not have any screw drive to spin the SAL lenses' gears. But with SAM and SSM lenses, the adapter can relay the information into the lens to tell it how to focus This post has been edited by lwliam: Oct 7 2010, 10:35 PM |

errr... i thought SAL refers to Sony's Alpha Lense mount?
SAM means it has a kind of internal focus motor so all SAM is a SAL lense, but not all SAL is SAM equipped |
