nex-5n got IR remote sensor?

Both NEX-5 and NEX-5 have. but not for 3 ro C3.

Any shops I can get the 5N-D white set?
Don't seem to find any.

5N have significant improve on the sensor, which have very high ranking in Image quality and high ISO performance.
And the touch focusing is great for direct composing! the IQ on review seems better than NEX7!

The 7 is great with EVF, built-in flash, hot shoe and Tri-navi, while the size and weight and just slightly increased.
but the price is too much different for upgrade 5N and 7, since EVF is not my main concern.

Snapsort just dumps whatever specs the manufacturers list, useful for quick comparison but hardly a reliable method to judge IQ... dpreview better

lol yeah, 5N can even win over 7 in snapsort

Do leave your comments for me to improve ya.. shot with new NEX5N.. still not used to the new camera...

guys, anyone tried SLR Magic 28mm f2.8 for Sony Nex??

i read the review from the internet and its seem to have a lot positive review... and its cheap LOL!!!!

found this guy selling... http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2221842&hl=

I tested it before, and it's better than the 35mm f1,7 for the Nex mount.

But for me, so far, the best E-mount lens for prime lens is the Nokton 50mm f0.95 prime lens

Just that its fully manual focus, something which is not bad on the Nex for the focus peaking.

the price tag rape me inside out

but nokton and slr magic is the same company lol!!! just found out from mighty google. try type " www.slrmagic.com" and see where it leads u


ps: happy birthday

Which also happens to be 4x more expensive than what he mentioned. Heck, even the design itself looks good

Rumor has it that TAMRON Europe acknowledges the Sweep panorama issue and will issue a firmware fix by end of March.

On another note, went to Tanjung sepat with Friends, so more new pics in the gallery.


No photo taking for the next few days, as I have just sent my NEX-5 to Sony center KLCC for sensor cleaning. The lady mentioned that it should take 5 days or less and will call if it finishes sooner. It's generally RM20 for sensor cleaning after warranty but it can balloon up to RM150 depending on what dirt and gunk u've got on the sensor.

for that price i rather go for better brand lens + adapter!
Voigtlander Nokton 25mm f/0.95 MICRO 4/3 mount will be better option with similar price. Although got vignetting at corners but still better glass.
Even can just top up some to get Voigtlander 50mm 1.1 M mount or other zeiss and leica.

Thankiu thankiu.

Yeap, SLR Magic bought over Nokton..

I am waiting for someone to bring the Nokton in so I can organize a TT session, but so far, no luck.

However, the 28mm, I might be able to get my hands on one or two unit if anyone is indeed interested.

Lolz, yeap. Cost roughly bout 3k after HK price conversion. So that makes it, roughly, 7 times more expensive than the 28mm LOL

its Noktor not Nokton. Huge difference

Yeap. Sorry for the typo. Nokton is the one for the Leica mount one.. Voightlander Nokton..

Guys, I'm having problem on video playback using GOM and VLC where there are a lot of lines on the the moving object.

Any solution to this? I'm using Nex-5N.

Your video is interlaced, hence the scanned lines. To smooth out the lines, you need to turn on the deinterlacing mode on VLC, but this will require a lot of processing power.

Thanks to you Stringfellow. Problem solved!!

I always thought GOM or VLC default setting provide best performance....

A new 18-55 lens sold separately for rm700 isit worth to get it? i m currently using 16mm only...>.<
