Thanks Quentin, appreciated but nature does its bit and I just get to push the button. There does seem to be an issue with some Sony lenses with the 7's sensor out resolving them, but the long fast lenses just love that sensor...and so do I.Danny, I can't believe what you are doing with the NEX-7 and Canon lenses. Great bird shots. likewise Mike and hiepphotog at the other end of the distance spectrum., Ustein, everyone, great work.
Thanks Danny. The Sony 16mm with and without converter gives just a trace of magenta in the far corners, but I don't worry about it (it usually gets cropped out). The lens and the combination are pretty sharp across a lot of the image.. .. . Keith, love that low perspective and that wide look. Nice work on that and I've always wondered about those converters, so great to see thanks . . ..
Danny.
Hi Mike, lovely! I wonder why I spent the money for a Noctilux if images like this can be done with a $32 lens. Wow!Thanks to a tip from Vivek, I picked up a CCTV 35mm f1.7 lens ($32 on ebay!) with NEX adapter. This lens is fun/quirky to use at f1.7. There is some magenta shift in the corners, and anything outside the center of the image is quite blurry at f1.7, but you can get some really fun shots.
Here are some samples from a stormy day at the beach:
Mike, Lovely images! The credit for the suggestion should go to Hot http://forum.getdpi.com/forum/sony/34246-nex7-fujian-35mm-1-7-a.html
I do not own that lens at all.
