The first pict was invited shoot. The second and third was taken at a small event last Sunday, at Jaya Mall.
There was folks using reflector, so I make use of it and fire my flash (on camera) with diffuser (stofen) towards it. Not best method, still learning. Cant say teach or otherwise :v The area we shoot has plenty of natural light.
Post processing for the last one, i reduced saturation of the girl behind.
All shot with a6000 + Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 D

Exact same pose lolz.
Yeap that's me, with Nikon and Tokina lenses.

Oh it was you. Add me on FB :v ~

Spam for today, experimental UWA for portraiture at 16mm, f/2.8
Didnt fix the distortion though.

Graduated from kitlens, but I still love my SELP1650, especially during travels.

Anyhow, here is today's spam, with a6000 + Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 dx ii.
More experimentation with ultrawide.

I think I did post it there, lolz...

Yes, both are taken by Tokina 11-16mm. The bokeh wasnt smooth or even-lighted, probably needs a different approach with background then.

Shooting RAW with SELP1650 actually requires a lot of processing, that made me often shoot in jpeg only. But it is a great versatile lens to travel around, I still love it.

Some new spams from recent shot, critiques always welcomed:

a6000 + Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8

a6000 + Minolta 75-300mm f4.5-5.6

Dramatic Hair concept, 7 composite images

Not expert but I guess still can reply :v

You will need a powered adapter for many of the A lenses so the aperture can be controlled. So far Sony's own LA-EA2/4 adapters are great option. Full manual lens then any would fine.
As for downside, besides it makes NEX less compact, some of the lenses have no lens profile in exif and on-cam correction didnt work (maybe the lenses I used were too old + third party, which could happen on A body anyway), nothing too big I guess.
Havent able to compare the focusing speed difference though.

Just realized the A lenses have the aperture lever like Nikon lenses, but less protruding and tad bit difficult to touch and turn it.


Earlier this year a rumour says will not have, and now might have. Still excited to see it though!


Some spams & hams today:

Wanted to ask, any trigger/receiver set is compatible with Sony HVL F43M flashes? Looking for no TTL trigger solutions though.

A few spams here:

a6000 + Sigma 30mm f/2.8 EX DN

asd-02380 by bdrc, on Flickr

a6000 + Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 DX ii
The barrel distortion on this lens seems acceptable across all rage, applying fix didnt change much, so I leave it as is. Perspective warp persists because ultrawide.

asd-02729 by bdrc, on Flickr

Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 :v
You may want to look at Samyang's wideangle too, if you dont mind MF.
Still SEL 10-18 is lightest and most compact.


Shoot from a6000 + Tokina 11-16:

Thanks~
Yes it is dslr lens, for A mount. I got LA-EA2 adapter for A mount lenses, may or may not suit your style :v
Bought it during KLPF for 1.85k new, ver.2

The reason I picked this over 10-18 is because of f2.8, and very well controlled distortion. Depends on your requirement again.
10-18 is very good for travel and light weight. Heard it's usable in FE as well, at 13mm. Plus OSS.

Still a6000+Tokina 11-16 lens:
