And my post had nothing to do with yours, I was simply responding the the original post which seemed to solicit opinions on the "first attempt HDR" photo.  My first tries at many things are often...

Yep, that's terrible.  Keep shooting.

If you already have a viewfinder, the IQ from the 5N, 5R and 6 should be nearly identical, it's simply the form factor/handling/wi-fi/improved AF to consider. I'd save the money and buy a used 5N...

Fixed amount of light spread out over a much smaller surface area (with a reducer) = more light per pixel

Boy this comment thread is full of people who THINK they know what they are talking about but really have no idea.

Just because there is an additional glass element doesn't mean it acts the same...

This little adapter could end up being a very BIG thing for the NEX E-Mount system.  It's really about who the primary buyers will be, those who have a big stockpile of Canon EF lenses (lots of...

Whats the name of the App?  I assume it's available on the 5r too.  Does the app do the stacking and processing?

Great Bokeh there.  I've been holding onto my Grandpa's Minolta MC lenses that I inherited for almost 10 years now, and just recently began using them on a NEX (not mine but a good friends and I...

I think you guys are getting to the point where you are talking about using a bazooka when all that's needed is a knife, this guy is just starting out.

In addition to what D Cox said, you could also rotate the object somewhat so that the face and hand of the doll are somewhat closer to the plane of focus.

I haven't had a chance to do a full workout of my Fotodiox MC/MD to NEX adapter, but it is very solid, and has a tripod attachment for only $20.  Early tests look good so far.

As he says, if you are turning the aperture ring and not seeing the blades "stop down" or "stop up", then you've got sticky aperture blades or a worse issue to work on

"quality" is subjective and means different things to different people.  AVCHD 1920x1080 is the highest resolution quality selection, utilizing the largest amount of pixels.  What type of lenses,...

I've got 4 or 5 dust spots that I start to see around f/11 in real world pictures, looks like I need to do some sensor cleaning myself.

A NEX isn't an SLR.  Trying to perfectly replicate an slr in a nex body is foolish and misses the ponit.

I'd say the fourth is best, but I don't like overly unnatural colorations.

The purpose of this image was a headshot, what lens, aperture and focal length were you shooting at, etc...?

Curious about this, what makes it lackluster?

The megapixels of the sensor are irrelevant (well, at this resolution they are). What happens when you take video, whether it's a 24MP sensor, 16MP sensor, etc... is that the camera downscales the...

My opinion on KR, when he's speaking about verifiable facts, he has some useful things to say and some parts of his gear/lens reviews can be useful.  It's when he portrays his subjective opinions...
