I like exact focus and I shoot a lot of people (think of street photography). I was shooting photos at a 4th grade science fair this past week and I ended up with zero photos with sharp eyes when I...

Your doubts may be correct if flicks' photo is accurate:

That would certainly be more like what I expected to ensure G quality.

I really like the size of this lens. I do not like using manual focus (or DMF) with the Sigma because it's just not smooth and easy. I haven't decided whether I'll keep my Sigma 30 or not, but...

Thanks for that review. I'll probably buy the app, but I also do enough international travel where I don't use my iPhone that I am thinking of spending $60 - $80 to get a little GPS tracker that I...

Just because one camera in the NEX system grew on the update doesn't mean that all hope is lost for the present sizes. I love the size and functionality of my 5N, but there are things about the 7...

I just put both of mine (and the wide angle adapter) on Craigslist. I haven't used either lens in months so even if this isn't a G lens then I am not losing anything. But if it is, then I...

I look at the roadmap and there is mention of a wide angle zoom and a standard zoom and a high magnification zoom (3 lenses) all showing up before the G lens (and I think the high magnification...

There must be something wrong with the voting system when the winning entry is only a 3.1 out of 5.

If it is really a G lens then it won't give up image quality and it will likely give up affordability. ;) I suspect it won't be a G lens.

Panasonic has a 14-42mm X pancake zoom, so this lens won't be unique. I just have trouble believing the new lens will be a G at a pancake size.

I have a nice B+W UV filter on my Zeiss 24 now. I had previous filter on it when it first came. I had some suntan lotion on my hands and accidentally touched the end of my lens and smeared the...

Good glass is worth the investment, but why would you limit yourself to just native glass?

Rich, you do recognize that there are a lot of people who shoot street photography who want a mobile system like the NEX series . . . and many of us have no interest in landscape shooting. I get...

The first image does not look very sharp at all. I am guessing that the kit lens ca do much better. Or perhaps this was shot too closely to the flowers?

I am not a fan of the artificial frames being electronically applied to images, but that's a minor quibble. I think you have nice compositions here and these are great images from the 18-200 to...

The scene (as shot by the Zeiss 24 since it's wider): dpr://galleries/4887423230/photos/1982203 I don't shoot these kinds of shots and have no interest in landscape photos. But it seemed like...

To be fair, I don't think those of us who want faster lenses are upset when the price reflects the faster lenses; that's to be expected. But I also think most of the "faster lens" people are also...
