After the filter, you still can put the lens cap off, no worry. 49mm filter will fit the kit lens

how about Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D, since it slow focus, better I go for manual focus  tongue.gif  rclxms.gif


Added on May 25, 2012, 5:39 pmHave a great offer for Carl Zeiss 50mm F2.8 German "Macro" Lens,, will it be nice to get it?

Nope, the price still acceptable...
Wondering will it as good as SEL50F18 for portrait or not? Any idea?

Hi jimmy, undoubt SEL50F18 is a really sharp lens n auto focus still acceptable for me... For me I will choose something there is less compatible issue with my nex..

If u going to choose CZ u will loss the autofocus lor (unless u get a costly adapter)... For me CZ is just the same as Leica lens, they have something which couldn't find in other lens.. Maybe the structure or design of that lens which Sony manufactured lens cannot on par with.. Pro and cons.. For me I very noob in manual focus will go for SEL50F18 for sure...

Now funding for a macro lens.. Any idea on SEL30M35?

Oh by the way, there is a good deal to share in pc expo mid valley.. Nex5n-d+extra battery+tripod+pouch+8gb memory card+sony extend warranty=2799...

Only available in white n silver.. Super limited unit.. I think might sold out ad...

Yeah...since you said that auto focus bit slow, I prefer to manual focus as it can get more bokeh effect with MF (I think so hmm.gif )

I pm you as i received a seller offer me on SEL30F35 too, might be you can leave a msg to him too

I bought my nex5n , kit lens with extra battery, pouch, 8gb SD and extend 2 yrs warranty with RM2599 in pc fair last dec, wondering how come the price still that high with nex7 and nex f3 out already
*
Thanks for your sharing n im considering.. Hey u mentioned the CZ lens with ACCEPTABLE PRICE.. Did u buy a secondhand unit? Rmbr to ask for condition and age of item..

In my opinion la, each of nex model target different market.. Who will utilize the 24mp of nex7? And I think F3 is a replacement of C3, ppl still rumour around it will lost touch screen.. Maybe there is some additional function n better outlook such as grip.. In technical specification wise, I think they will still differentiate it btw 3 n 5.. Correct me if I'm wrong.. Just comment on what I read n feel...
Personally think 5n can last me for at least 3yrs la.. Cos I don't really like bulky body like SLR, still I like a picture quality.. Nex do the best for me !

Is this the czj lens? Anyway personally i would go for sel lens then czj. For me, what cz is best at is their t* coatings. Yes optically czj might be really good but the cz colors just isnt there (no multicoat i think). Couple with the fact that you lose af and needed to get a good adapter, i dont think any upside in optical quality (not the the sel lens is a slouch either) is worth more than the diff in price and af loss.
Besides, if the sel lens is slow, switch it over to mf and you can stilll use peaking.
2 cents.

Really sharp?

I heard it has poor corner sharpness when wide open compared to the counterpart Sigma 30mm at wide open.

Hmm pro n cons la.. E mount lens can't really ask for too much compare to Slr lens.. Overally I'm satisfied with it, at least the object I focus is quite details.. For the corner sharpness, I can't explain much.. Some of my photos do hv this issue but some don't hv..

Ok, let me make it clearer.. A Sony made e mount lens.. For me, the corner blur issue is random, which I can't explained when will sharp n when will blur..

Went to try out the 5n n f3 today... Guess I can't used this camera I find it difficult to do the setting. I never compare it with my dslr but I was thinking of something at least as easy to set as my s90 but was kinda of disappointed after trying.
*
i was at the same position with u at that moment, but after sometimes i feel nex setting is quite ok...
ofcos most of the dslr comes with dial on top, just twist will do... nex need to touch screen n slowly select...
pro and cons larr

After few study, I prefer stay with SEL50F18 and Sigma 19mm lens, it provide better IQ with Nex5n.

I still vote for NEX5n for the touch screen function as it only applied on Nex5N rclxm9.gif
*
high 5... touch screen rox... thumbup.gif
agree with jimmy, SEL lens always hv better IQ compare with sigma... picture quality wise, maybe sigma will be a lil bit better...
after i back from a trip, i personally feel the 18-55mm lens is important cos of the OSS, 16mm great for me to shoot marina bay laser show with tripod at night rclxm9.gif SEL30M35 not only shoot for food and macros, i use to walk and snap... suprising, the result is kinda miracle for me... will upload pics soon...

now fund for SEL50F18 or perhaps... ready for the next update of nex7 shocking.gif
