Now i got about 5 pcs of 50mm legacy prime lenses from ebay.
It is like gambling to bid on ebay!

My next target will be Voigtlander Nokton 35mm or 40mm F1.4!!!

I got a friend who lost some package due to eBay le. That's why nvr tot of getting it via eBay. Haha.

Unfortunately I was unable to buy one. Those selling at RM150 ~ RM160 very fast kena sapu by forumers, and the rest RM200 firm You can check back V1/V2 NEX topic, got people managed to attach but it's a tight fit.

These pics are all very very nice indeed! How I wish I can snap something like this... Me still got lots to learn.

Hehe, can recommend 1 or 2 good Minolta lenses for macro? By the way, your copy is the older variant with 55mm thread or the newer batch?

Just get my nex-5 to kick start the hobby. nice to meet all the sifu-sifu here

hey guys, is B+W XS-PRO Nano 010 UV MRC 49mm selling at rm120 worth it? cant find any price to compare

i wonder wat filter should i get for my kit lens leh?? any suggestions here sifu?? its kinda for everyday shoot 1..

yeah me too.. now eyeing for a cheap Marumi DHG lens protect & maybe another Marumi for CPL filter also.

Seems not many LYN traders carrying 49mm CPL filter though.

of course worth it if its genuine
but try before you buy, the xs-pro has a slim mount and your lens cap may not fit too well, easily popping out
thats why i prefer the f-pro series

i always shoot landscape with Aperture mode f8 - f16 ... actually im lucky to stay here in borneo .. can get beautiful sunset almost everyday ..

tq bro .. i still learning .. shooting everyday .. hehe ..
i read at fredmiranda forum .. minolta md 35-70 f3.5 is a good macro lens .. but not 1:1 mag ratio .. btw i not into macro .. but im interested with carl zeiss flektogon 35 2.4 also with macro option ..

What I did is to get a step up ring 49-52mm. I share the filter for my other 52mm lens. Means you should probably think ahead which other lens you want to get and what size it would be first.

I'm using F16 to F22 on the kit, cause i like all the max depth i can get , and it blacks out the objects in the foreground.



BTW.. The SEL18200 price increase is real.

i'm still thinking upgrade my NEX-5 to 5N or 7.
Arghh.... tough decision.....!

NEX5 to NEX5N = Waja 1.5 to Waja 1.6
NEX5 to NEX7 = Waja 1.5 to BMW M3

i hope u understand

Thanks for the recommendations, gonna check out reviews about these 2 lenses as well as some price scouting on eBay.

N8 can take brilliant outdoor pics, but is otherwise disastrous indoors

Added on February 15, 2012, 8:36 pm5N is definitely not same level (Waja) as the older 5 lar since it houses the same sensor as 7, just less megapixels.

are u sure the different is only the megapixels.....

Snapsort listed these as NEX7 advantages against NEX5N:

Has a viewfinder
Much higher true resolution
Continuous video focus
Has an external mic jack
Better image quality
More dynamic range
Built-in flash
Better color depth

Seems negligible though

yeah daytime even better than IXUS 300HS compact but night shooting - disaster haha
