Well, that's why I bought those R lenses - because they don't clash with my M lenses. To be honest, although the M lenses are really good fun to use on the NEX, and except for the real wides the results are fine; I'd much rather use them on an M9. Just like I'd much rather use the R lenses on a Leica solution (here's hoping).

Thanks for the kind words - it was a pretty morning and hard to go wrong - but the R lenses really are good to use on the NEX - handle nicely, and easy to focus. . . . . more to the point, unlike my previous excursions into using the 'wrong' lenses with adapters, these are NOT irritating!

I admit I have looked a bit for used 28-90s...but I would only buy if I get a very good deal.
Because in the end I hope for AF lenses if Leica comes with a solution/mirrorless camera.

Re: Couple more from Paris...

João: Great captures, both of them! :thumbs: The Backlighting in #1 works very well imho and gives a very special sentiment to this one, #2: perfect casting and timing result in remarkable tension - and a superb composition for both. Like them very much. Nice PP also. :salute:

João - both of the Paris shots above are wonderful but I especially like your processing on the metro shot. Wonderful color.

Thank you all for the kind comments.

PP is done with Lr3 + Nik Siver Efex or Nik Color Efex.

Uwe: ISO on metro shot was 500 I think (I am not at home).

I think the noise reduction apllied is Ok for web, but I might need a different approach for bigger sizes.

Lens was the kit 18-55 (the only one I have), and it was tricky to adjust all of the distortion corrections.

I have a CCTv 35 f1.7 on order (to cheap to pass on!).

But I am still conflicted to invest or not in lens for the NEX, and if I do, if I go NEX E-Mount or RF primes or legacy lens (canon FD, etc).

OTOH the little NEX has shown me that the sensor in my Oly E3 is very very dated...which is a shame since the Zuiko lenses I have (specially the 7-14 and 12-60) are quite nice optically and very rugged.

WBR,

All the shots posted are really excellent IMO - so much so that I have ordered a 5n with kit lens, a used 16/2.8 along with adapters for my Leica M, R and Nikon lenses - I'm having a hard time awaiting their arrival.

I guess thanks are in order to all the image posters:ROTFL:

christmas decorations

Wyf picked up some new ornaments for the tree the other day. Etched red glass balls. Thought they looked neat with the window light hitting them.

Tamron 28-75@f/5.6/75mm on a 5N from about 2 feet. Background color variation was by choice, nothing the camera did weird.
