  • It looks like a fun lens, but then again I like crazy projects and designs. I wouldn't buy it though. I have to admit I'm part of the "I'd rather buy full frame"-crowd here. I can see uses for this...

  • If it performs well, this could be huge. Pricing needs to be right though if they want to take a chunk out of Canikons lens sales...

  • So the only thing that gets updated on the NEX-7 is compensation support for the 16-50 power zoom? Or did I read it wrong?

  • So even the 35mm does poorly on the NEX-7? I don't know what Sony did with that camera to create this problem... The 35mm is not very wide, and still it doesn't work well. I just hope that the...
  • So, different opinions on the G28 apparently. But I have heard from others that the performance of the G28 on particularly the NEX-7 was not stellar, especially with regards to purple fringing in...
  • Yes, I was out this weekend and it wasn't hugely cold, but maybe -8 C which is enough for me to want gloves for most of the time. Especially when standing still with the camera on a tripod (it was...
  • I use the G45 and the G90 on the NEX-7 with great results, really amazing sharpness and detail. I would also be interested in knowing how the G28 performs on the NEX-7, I'm thinking about investing...
  • Yep, I had the stickers and the seal, and battery packed separately.But this is a matter of store-policy, right? I know that some stores in the US have been criticised for selling returns as new...
  • That is awesome, I will do that next time I use the camera. I usually don't use auto-ISO, but rather pick an ISO depending on time of day and type of shot, and use it for several (or many) shots....
  • Buy a 46mm third-party screw-in lens hood, I did that for my lens. It cost me a couple of dollars on eBay, so the cost is negligible, I would just have preferred to have a bayonet-mount hood like...
  • I don't understand why really, since the 19mm comes with a pretty decent hood, which doesn't fit the 30mm for some reason... I would rather have a hood than a bag really, I only use the bag for...
  • I have noticed the same thing with my 50 f1,8, it almost never goes down all the way to f1,8, rather it stays on f2,0. It's not that good since most of the time I don't use auto-ISO, but rather ISO...
  • Spot-focus helps a little, but not as much as I would like. I could try face-recognition I guess. The thing that i find most disturbing about these focus-issues is that I found my Panasonic GF1 to...
  • I have the NEX-7, and I have the same problem with most of my lenses... Especially the 50mm f1,8 is very eager to focus on the background instead of the foreground which is incredibly annoying...
  • Yes of course, it's always difficult to know whether the lens is worth the money for me personally. But the fact that you are happy with the lens is comforting. I guess I just have to decide...
  • Yes, I remember your review, it was the main one I read. You seem to still be happy with the lens? Sometimes initial impressions can be very good, but after a while other aspects surface that are...
  • And I would be very interested in general user experiences with the 10-18 f4. I have read available reviews and they feel quite positive, but I have read very few user experiences. Is the lens...
  • Yes, an affordable 12mm would be great. I really enjoy using both the 19mm and the 30mm, they give a lot of bang for the buck to say the least. But the 19mm is not an ideal focal-length, it's not...
  • I agree with you, it's always good to check the alternatives outside your own brand-bubble. And considering the amount of large-sensor compacts and mirrorless cameras that are hitting the market...
  • I have the Minolta Rokkor 135mm f3,5, and for the price I don't find anything to complain about. It is slightly soft wide open, but the images sharpen up nicely in post-processing. I got the lens...
