That adaptor does not allow your lens to auto-focus.

It supports Minolta AF lenses (Alpha mount) but not Minolta SR/MC/MD lenses.

sifus,

this is not about the camera ..want to ask about the memory card used with the camera.. i read a couple of posting prior.. but no mention what would be a good card.. of course one can generalise the best is the highest in class i.e. SD class 10/ SDXC.. nevertheless any specific brand recommended? or i read somewhere there mentioned that memory stick is better? any thoughts? thanks..

If shoot a lot of videos and hires raw it's better to get class 10 as writing and transfer speed faster lo.Otherwise normal class 4 is ok,i think kua.

For 720p video, class 4 is more than enough. Class 4 will give you min. 4MB/s write speed, and that is way above the bitrate for 720p video.
For 5N, I think the max video bitrate is about 28Mbit/s, which is still below Class 4 minimum write speed smile.gif so it is enough even for 5N.

Please correct me if wrong. smile.gif

Not exactly nex camera,using 2 cameras one was 7d while the other my humble 550d.
Was transferring 2 16gb worth of footage,one on class 4 and then another with class 10.As far as I remembered class 4 takes more or less 15 mins while class 10 is around 7 mins or so.Same goes when formatting both cards as class 4 just lag but I'm not saying class 4 is unusable.All this happens I forgot to bring the back-up class 10 sdcard during one of my video shoot. I'm not gonna measurebate what's on paper just some practical experience I had before.If you deem class 4 is enough so be it.I'm cool with it.

of course, if you're talking about transfering definitely class 10 will be faster and take less time.

if not willing to wait or really need to transfer a lot, then go for class 10 or even high speed memory stick but just have to pay $$$ smile.gif can't have best of everything...

I have class 4 and class 6 SDHCs and did benchmark before, as you can see class 6 definitely can read/write faster at higher cost $$

Maybe someone can test their class 10 and share for comparison sake. At 12Mb/s vs 18Mb/s read speed, we can easily understand why it takes longer to copy from fully loaded 32GB class 4 vs class 6 or 10.

A quick question:

in low light condition, will manual lens 50mm f1.8 better than kit lens for taking a sharp pic?

If using kit lens i will use function like handheld twilight.
