Yes! The Seagull SYK-5!!! Do not get the wrong SYK-3!
But it might not work with all Flashgun, eg. YN560.
I tested with YN468, it triggered in the M mode perfectly.

photo coming in the next post....

hi there, just wanna ask a noob question, raynox 250 is attached to the lens, so we need a step up ring or step down ring to fix to the raynox 250? so, the raynox macro effect will be better on 200mm instead of 55mm?

Thank for the offering, why you want to sale it since it is so nice to use?Can it fix with 18-55mm lens? or need to use adapter on it?

If this seagull works well indoor and out doors, I'm running out of my door to get one.
Do let us know how it handle the NEX preflash.

i was told the seagull might not work perfectly under hot sun.
but i never tested it myself.

The perfect solutions is Optical Trigger + radio transmitter!

so,bulk order for the optical trigger?

just buy from studio zaloon uncle chin or any other shop u can get locally, no need bulk buy lar!
at least u can bring your cam to test any of the flahgun there!
i check the price is not much higher than order online! and it's risk for missing parcel and defected unit.

Thinking to get the 30mm F3,5 macro lens..The cheapest I can get right now RM930..Uncle Chin can offer below RM900 kah haha

since not much of choice at this moment for E mount lenses, you may get this for AF macro and also day time prime lens.
i tested it quite ok for AF! and 30mm is good for APSC.

just my sharing before you get a 30mm macro

yes, i have read that also.
If u read till the end, he did mentioned:
"If you do not have a good 28mm, then the trade-off is more difficult. How much will it cost to find a good enough manual 28mm? With the risk of being disapointed each time you buy an old lens. With the new Sony SEL30M35 you are certain you won’t be disappointed considering the available reviews."

that's why i mentioned it might good for AF and daylight use.

Likedat better wait for my upcoming Sigma 70-210 zoom-macro haha..and probably coupled wth Raynox? But worry old lenses contrast & sharpness will not be as good as new AF lenses

This is how the Seagull SYK-5 look like:


Here can see it sync correctly with ignoring the preflash!

It's a tight fit on the 49mm E-mount. Raynox specs the minimum mount size at 52mm. It'll be easier to attach with a 49-52 step-up.

Tamron SP90 + +10 filter + Raynox = Awesome.

Tamron SP90 + +10 filter + Raynox = Fringing and CAs to the end of the world yo!

/fixed

But in all seriousness, the lens will probably touch the subject! Don't think my insects like being treated that way, not to mention the difficulties that come with lighting.

Guys,
Any news of the 50 f1.8 OSS lens in KL?
Aiming for this lens right now....

Should be coming soon.

Hmnn Wth teh raynox on the SP90 also having CA/fringing? That what I hate about the +10 filter..VERY obvious CA or yellowish fringing..Spoil the photo

Nola...if you put Raynox and filter then you will have obvious fringing...

Raynox on its own is good...
