lwliam: Nooooo!~ They stink, stonk, stank the entire mile, ugh. but your shots almost made them seem tolerable, lol. I guess the 2470 would have been the ideal lens for travel if using a FF huh?

lwliam: just to check with you. would 1635 or 2470 serve you better during travel? wat i'd like to know is, how many percent was shot with 1118 and also 2470 during your trip?

While we're on the topic of lenses, I'd like to check with you guys because this is what I feel about premium F2.8 lenses eg CZ1635, 2470, 70200G.
While their output is somewhat better than non-premium lenses, I think that their weight detracts the photographer a bit. Furthermore, they cost an arm and a leg too. Some may say it is a matter of getting used to it but I think that having lenses which are lighter will let the photographer concentrate on the shooting than being bogged down by a heavy lens. Anyone here feels that way? |

QUOTE(shootkk @ Sep 21 2010, 11:30 AM) The weight is a real consideration for me. I mean of course the IQ of the Zeiss lenses are better but I'm opting more for primes which will come close. Of course you can't really get the laser sharpness, micro contrast and the Zeiss colors but primes weighs a lot less and far more easier to lug around. The primes costs less too. Heck even the new Zeiss 24mm f2 will cost less than the existing Zeiss zooms! Yes, that's what I'm talking about. In fact, I reckon that the CZ24 and 85 on a FF would be an amazing pair, though they cost more than one 2470 though. That's the reason I have a 20mm prime (this will have to do for the moment until can find the funds to get the Zeiss 24mm f2) plus the 50mm prime. These 2 lenses can replace the 24-70mm and they weigh less put together than a single 24-70! Plus I have the option to go down all the way to f1.4 on the 50mm I'm looking to get the 85mm f2.8 SAM too. That's another lightweight lens that can stay in the bag all the time.

Confirmed AF with NEX adapter?! This news is intense!
Is the aperture settings for video recording On-The-Go or Set-Then-Record anyway? One concern - would Sony forsake screw drive lenses with new bodies moving forward? SAM/SSM seems like their roadmap for product development recently. |
