Me and my friend tried something stupid yesterday. ND500 + ND400 + CPL => 19 Stops... we get pitch black picture regardless of the shutter speed blush.gif

Anyone knows the maximum stops we can stack with ND Filters?

On LCW ND500 => 9 Stops. I manage to get 4 seconds on very hot day.

hey there alpha-rians..

i read that sony alpha SLT a55 got reduce the 30% of light from entering the sensor..

is it that obvious? cuz i also read some where that at ISO 100(even in low light conditions),the image is likely the same as the canon 550D..

yeah the canon got a slightly smaller sensor btw

so wut do guys hav to say about this?

thanks in advance smile.gif
*
translucent mirror design will reflects 30% of light to the AF sensor on top and 70% of light will travel into the image sensor.....
no more mirror movement within the camera and that means no more vibration and faster FPS can achieve....

want to ask.

Curious

Might be stupic to u all

Beginner here.
Nikon lenses got VR (Vibration Reduction)

Sony/Minolta lenses got such things?

if i have a VR lenses but join with Nex using converter, VR helps?

if i got A55, want to get a 50mm lenses, nikon ppl will say VR lenses nice, but Sony lenses, what am i looking it for a ADDing Point lenses?
*
normal alpha body got built in SSS (Super Steady Shot)... tat's the reason why the lenses do not hv stabilizer....

for NEX it uses OSS (Optical Steady Shot) in the lens.... hence not stabilizer on the camera body....

if u mount VR/IS lense on NEX it won't gif u the stabilizing effect.....

Wanna ask my kitlens gear slips and wonder izzit worth it to repair it or go buy a kitlens replacement which i thinking of either Sony DT AF 16-105mm or Tamron AF 17-50mm which both also around the same amount. Which 1 is better, anyone using it?

How i wish i can buy Sony Carl Zeiss 16-80m  cry.gif  cry.gif  cry.gif

it really depends on u.... whether constant aperture f/2.8 is more important to u or the longer focal length...

I have to say though, the bokeh isn't quite as clean as the Samyang's... it has a terrible case of brightline bokeh.

guys, any one of you using octopus battery for ur a55 or a33? does it have any compatible issue? i emailed one of the seller for this battery, he also not dare to gurantee it. He said that Sony makes their product in such a way that you are forced to buy original Sony accessories.Sony users are always facing difficulties with third party accessories. In the end, they will go back to buy original sony products. Even for Sony DVDplayer, always find it very hard to read "pirated" DVDs, this is the problemwith Sony products.  rclxub.gif  whistling.gif

i received my 3rd party battery from hk..it does come out the message 'does not compatible with this model' occasionaly .. after take out battery, put it back and switch on, the message gone  rclxub.gif .... but really inconvenience  doh.gif ..  blush.gif and who know this way wont solve the problem in certain emergency hour ?  rclxub.gif guess the original battery is the way sad.gif  sweat.gif

octopus is good fr wat i heard fr a fren who is using a55.... as good as sony fr wat he said.... i still hvn't receive the batt i bot for my a33... will let u know if it's reliable later....
