Anyone tried Canon L lenses with NEX before? drool.gif

QUOTE(geek8585 @ Nov 28 2012, 10:04 AM)
honestly speaking... i tested on nex lens lineup... don't have any single lens can satisfied the hunger of 24.3mpx except the SEL24F18CZ...
at normal size you wont see the difference, zoom in and you will shock with the result... the upcoming 35F18 and 1018F4 still not sure about the result...

but if really want to go for 7, zeiss lens is a must... else get some manual focus prime...  smile.gif

hope it helps... YNWA  icon_rolleyes.gif

Even though I'm a lady but my bargaining skills have always been poor. For sure the salesman will have 101 excuses which will convince me to give in to them. Yes, I'm aware that the tripod is not good.

But seriously, do we need class 10 for Nex 6? Which is better? Memory Stick or SD Card?
*
ms is better but expensive. if u take a lot of continuous shots, get the sandisk extreme 45mb/s. superb.

you should ask the salesman for package a dont want sd card how much. 8gb may not be enough esp if u are planning to take 1080 50p video. i'm using sandisk extreme 32gb. less than rm100 bought from best bargain at sim lim square singapore.


Added on November 28, 2012, 8:51 pmi thought the best price so far is from studio zaloon or dy divine? did u ask there to compare?

sel16f28 max is f2.8.... u need those old manual lens or cctv lens for max bokeh effect. look for sevenor in this forums. he is selling a lot, tried his before very nice but u must be prepared to manual focus. i might be getting a canon fd 50mm f1.4 to try again... cant bring myself to buy sel50f18 for almost same price as canon ef 50mm f1.4 ......

Besides being an adapter for alpha lens, it also turns your NEX auto focus to phase detection type, which focuses much faster especially for moving subjects.

And no, its only compatible with alpha mount lens.

i thought 5r and 6 has phase detection af built in already with standard e series lens?

You can also find the NEX-EF autofocus adaptor on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Autofocus-Adapter-...=item3a7b8de913

less than RM1k smile.gif

For plain adapters, it will just allow you to mount the lens that all, no aperture control and only manual focus. I've used it before with Canon EF 50mm 1.8, in fact letting go the adapter now as I don't have any more Canon EF lens.



QUOTE(crazeoneeighteen @ Dec 4 2012, 09:39 AM)
AF won't work on those adaptor as they are just plain adaptor.You can find lots of alternative to fotodiox at Garage sales,Zaloon,Lelong......
You need Metabones or Techmart AF adaptor.Last I checked YL Camera has a unit of Metabones and cost around 1.5k.

Guys, do you know is 35mm f1.8 already selling in malaysia? My friend told me the curve Sony center selling 35mm f1.8 for NEX RM899.

I suspect that is for A-Mount.

Think you'll need an adapter and you'll lose the autofocus capability.

I saw someone selling the SEL55210 - maybe a better fit for the NEX?
