That one crop at F3.5? Yeah really wow..I think I must reduced my F from 1.4 to probably 2.8 or 4 too haha
One think I dun like about 50MM after using it for few days + the added adapter is the focal lenght permanently >50mm & wth the adapter probably 80MM? That's already any auto max zoom lens liao compare wth my existing 18-55 kit lens and if wanna shoot food picture, I need to sit further away from my food..  QUOTE(Ah hao @ Feb 27 2012, 12:10 PM) Added on February 27, 2012, 12:13 pmand when pixel peeping, its surprise me as well, fxxk off for those expensive e mount lens  100% crop, without editing  |

Yeap I also placed an order of an ext tube for MD dy..Hopefully getting it within 3 wks time
QUOTE(Ah hao @ Feb 27 2012, 02:41 PM) suddenly remind of a thing call extension tube, it can shorten the minimum focus distance. but how well the effect i don know, nvr try b4 u try it then tell me the effect  Added on February 27, 2012, 5:02 pmLooks better than the kit lens provided by NEX liao lor haha. For me I think it's good. Probbly it's my noob skill haha QUOTE(zstan @ Feb 27 2012, 04:58 PM) the bokeh is horrible though. This post has been edited by stimix: Feb 27 2012, 05:02 PM |

For those going manual, this is a good long winded interesting article.. I spent almost 3 hrs digesting it while watching dramas haha
http://aggregate.org/DIT/OLDLENS/ I hope I will not be like this :QUOTE Old manual focus lenses are highly addictive. The first time you pick one up, the mechanical quality hits home. Then you turn the focus ring. Wow! That sure felt good. Unbelievably smooth. Then you make the really big mistake. Thinking manual focus is cool, you try turning the manual focus ring on your favorite auto-focus lens. What the H*LL was that? Sloppy. Plastic. Yuck! The next thing you know, you've got a dozen old M42 lenses sitting next to you.... It's called LBA: Lens Buying Addiction. |

So raynox better than Extension tube
.. Thinking of getting one. I luv macro but the result kenot even get close to fansoptian.. QUOTE(zstan @ Feb 28 2012, 09:03 AM) The adapter won't affect the crop factor. But with extension tubes you lose your ability to focus to infinity and the IQ may lose out to using Raynox. |
