Guys, I have a 16GB Pendrive class 10 SDHC which performs noticeably slower than the free Sony 8GB class 4 SDHC on my Nex-5N.

Because of that, I assume Pendrive is a lousy brand.

I'm planning to get a new 16GB or 32GB SD card. Sony is expensive, which brand would you all recommend?
*
If SD cards, look no further than the Sandisk extreme pro series..

Cost roughly bout 200+ for the 16gb one, but well worth the speed XD

Is it really cheap over there compare to M'sia? When I was there, I dun find their electronics to be cheap except their food haha. furthermore, how about the waranty? covering International or just Taiwan...unless you're like string fellow a frequent Taiwan travellers  biggrin.gif

Not always 100% cheaper but sometimes overseas, you can somewhat get a better offer compared to what you are getting here, without the warranty, of course.

Seen some better offers for some camera in overseas than the local price here, anyways.

No leh, Tamron one cost more than Sony's LOL.

Seriously.

QUOTE(ngcmn @ Feb 12 2012, 11:06 PM)
how much does it cost ar?? wonder wan invest on A mount or E mount better...
*
Should be around the A-mount's price.

Well, get A-mount also same, since it's manual focus..

Only you can recycle it and use it with your a-mount if u have an adapter for your NEX.

If you own an alpha Camera, then yea. Might as well go A-mount.

If not, get the E-mount one should be the same. Smaller size summore.

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!!!! laugh.gif

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 tongue.gif

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

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.

QUOTE(Dreamworks @ Feb 16 2012, 10:27 PM)
Which also happens to be 4x more expensive than what he mentioned. Heck, even the design itself looks good laugh.gif

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

Once he firm his best price dy, very hard 2 get discount..

But he's service, superb la.

That's bloody cheap, actually.

NEX-7 body goes for RM4499, while the SEL18200 normally retails from 2100 ~ 2300. In other words, the lens will cost only RM1400.


Added on February 20, 2012, 12:23 pm

MTF charts compared to their FF 50/2.8 EX is great on paper. Can't wait to see some actual shots with this lens. For it's price, it's a really sweet deal. Considering the 2.8 aperture, it's not really a huge issue when you factor in the price and size.
*
Well, wait a little more and you can get your hands on it. though personally, i am quite skeptical of Sigma's quality..

Word is, both 30/2.8 and 19/2.8 were originally designed for their DP2 Merril P&S. We can expect good stuff to come from it. Do note that the final design for the DP2 merril has a different optical construction... 7 elements compared to 6.

In any case, more 3rd party NEX lenses the better.
*
Agreed.

But frankly, NEX has alot of options of lens to choose from, if you don't mind losing the AF and using MF with some other lens instead smile.gif

LA-EA2 is HUGE!!! Totally took away the point of having a nex system... you probably better off with A77 & SAL1650 combo... Also LA-EA2 is not that cheap too... unless you have a CZ or G lens lying around, then yes, LA-EA2 seems like a good idea...
*
For me, the LA-EA2 is worth it if you want to increase the IQ of the camera, but decreasing its portability.

So, if you want a powerful camera that is compact enough 4 you, then the LA-EA2 seemed to be a bad idea.

But if you don't mind, it sounds like a good idea.

Btw - ZSTAN stated an accurate point. 1650 ssm is not sold separately without the 77 kit.
