  • I prefer to shim my adapters to the proper spec, I've only had to make one adapter thinner. My adapter  strategy is to adapt to EF for the longer registration mounts(F, OM, m42...) and to use...
  • What noise? I think you're seeing things, contrast is a bit on the low side, but is easy to add, maybe with a full size image you could see noise, but I don't see any at this size(large in gallery).
  • Replied in Seattle
  • Just this: http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr3-manufacturing-problem-is-cause-for-the-nex-7-successor-launch-delay/
  • Looks like your options are:  Leave it as is,  Get it fixed, it could cost as much as its worth, or if you can find someone to do it for you(I'm willing to, but you'd have to pay shipping both...
  • I doubt Canon is too worried about mirrorless taking over, and you can be sure they will be R&Ding their little butts off, only they know what their plans are. My...
  • Replied in Try this!
    If you do as the above picture demonstrates, you should be able to mount the lens & set the aperture and see the iris move to match the setting, there will be no need to use the lock ring...
  • Did you even take the time to see what images he's uploaded to his gallery? I don't think he has a problem seeing compositions, infact I wouldn't be surprised if his portfolio is orders of...
  • The live view ISO boost tends to obliterate fine detail on what you are trying to focus on and is what the peaking system uses to generate the contrast measurements and then apply the color...
  • Replied in Which NEX?
    If I had to buy a NEX today, it would be the 6, the evf is very handy in bright situations.
  • As stated, there is no reason to use the "A" setting on FD lenses. On FD lenses(sadly not nFD) you can push the aperture lever on the back of the lens till it clicks into its locked position, the...
  • I can recommend my OM 21/3.5 MC its well regarded as sharp across the frame on a FF sensor, so it's as futur proof as a lens will get, it has great color, and coma is well controlled, its my go to...
  • Sony wouldn't call it FF, and its mount would have to be different to accommodate the SB'S elements, and I don't see Sony making a whole new mount vs just making a FF sensor NEX. Adding a SB to a...
  • But the more often you use that blower, the less often you'll have to touch the sensor, every time you touch the sensor(pack) you risk smudges, or worse... scratches, the longer the dust sits on...
  • First of all I think your shutter speed is the most important setting to get right, blur from camera movement = a trash shot, where as a sharp shot that missed focus or has too thin of a DOF is...
  • I tend to think of lens character much like the character of wine, spirit, or even food, they all have similar ingredient's but its the little things that make a difference...
  • It sounds like a corrupt codec/driver... But within different programs that should have their own driver, strange, is it the pc SD card, or camera...Have you tried a different pc? Different SD...
  • Wow, how lazy photographers have become, how did we survive with manual focus lenses?:) Anyways, to the OP, the best workaround is to either use manual focus or turn off the camera till you plan to...
  • Replied in Minolta love
    Google Minolta STF http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minolta_STF_135mm_f/2.8_T4.5_lens Originally produced by Minolta, and currently produced by Sony, the STF 135mm f/2.8 [T4.5] is a photographic...
  • You can also shoot raw and that works just fine for me.
