A Nex-5N and a Nex-3, leave the kit zoom on one, have 2 lenses available for the other (16mm with ultrawide adapter and a Nikon 100mm lens with appropriate  adapter).  Usually one will know in...

Lovely photos.  (Last time I was in YOUR Cambridge was in 1976, with a little Kodak Instamatic that was in the process of giving up the ghost).

Wonderful pictures!

I often use old Nikon manual focus lenses, especially for particular purposes -- such as taking photos at concerts and taking pictures of flowers (and other close-ups).  I have been quite happy...

My travel set is the 18-55 kit zoom, the 16mm (with the ultra-wide attachment permanently attached, for all practical purposes), and an Nikon 100mm f/2.8 lens w. cheap adapter.  For urban tourism...

Arigatou gozaimasu -- wish I could be there to take my own photos....

I think the price for Nikon's shortish telephoto manual lenses has gone up quite a bit recently. But this was quite a bargain when I bought my copy (I couldn't afford this lens back when I first...

I have a couple of Rainbow Imaging Nikon-to-Nex adapters -- the first one I got seems a bit solider.  I only have manual Nikon lenses, so I didn't need a version with a pseudo-aperture ring.

Nice picture! I don't have a Nex7, but I do have a Nikon 100mm Series E lens to use with my Nex3 and Nex5n -- and find it quite indispensable when wants to travel light, yet still have a longer...

For my recent trip to Rome, I tokk a Nex 3 (with kit lens) and a Nex-5N (which alternately hosted the 16mm + ultra-wide adapter and a Nikon 100mm + its adapter).  That really was all I felt I needed.

I worried about that -- but I didn't have any problem in real life use.Shot with my Nikon 35-70 Another shot using the 35-70 (with some cropping)

I have all sorts of old Nikon manual lenses I love (and use) -- most important of these are 35-70mm macro AIS, 80-200mm AIS and 100mm Series E (quite small and light). Also have a lovely 35mm F.2...

Your Nikon 105 micro shots are gorgeous!

If one WERE to get the LA_EA1, what are some of the easiest to manually focus (and affordable but good) A-mount lenses to think about getting?

Where were these taken?

Many of us just leave the focus light off permanently.  ;~}

Sounds like a keeper -- this compares well with the 80-200 f/4.0 AI-s -- this is a bit lighter and focuses closer than the 8-200.  Oh well, I'm (very) happy with what I have. ;~}

I got one of these: Ape Case AC540BL Envoy Standard Messenger Camera Case (Blue) On a recent trip to Rome, I took along a Nex-3, a Nex-5, the 18-55 zoom, the 16+UWA, a Nikon 35+adapter and a...

I deal with this by using a manual focus lens, with my Nex set on shutter priority.  So, I can adjust the aperture manually, and adjust the shutter speed via the camera control -- and (within...
