if you shoot with jpeg models from NEX-5N onwards are much better due to the lens auto-correction inside the camera.
-
as long as the sensor is cropped (which NEX is), you'll have to consider the crop factor. only exception is using the metabones speed booster adapter.
52.5-105mm (normal to short telephoto) is not...

I've heard lots of good things about this lens, but unfortunately with the size & weight (750g) I don't think it's a good fit to adapt on NEX.
The heaviest/largest I've tried adapting was the...

There's the Minolta MD 35-70 f/3.5 if you want to go manual focus. In the long run though I think getting LA-EA2 is worth it for practical purposes, and legacy lenses aren't any cheaper than old...

While Keit's point is valid, I do want to point that stabilization isn't exactly vital to shoot with.
I bought old A-mount lenses new, and there are 3 reasons for me to get them:
1. faster focus
2....

I was reading online that it's best to shoot with portrait creative style & -3 contrast -3 sharpness to allow more room for post processing & color gradation (what does that...

thanks! it's a joy playing with 'em old lenses

I've been playing around with some old AF lenses on NEX via the LA-EA2 adapter, and found two zooms I thought that fit well with tiny NEX bodies. They are family to the legendary Minolta 70-210mm...

Hi folks I'm trying to familiarize myself with shooting videos, and was wondering how my camera settings may affect.
So say I want a shallow DOF, I should set a large aperture before hitting the...

or just buy a second-handed/refurbished NEX-5 for less than $200 plus the case - same price as the Olympus TG-1. AND you have a nice back up body!
I attach the cheap 16mm on mine for diving. It'll...

Placed 42nd in the challenge.

Not necessarily my all-time favorite (tens of thousands of photos to review from), but one that I took recently that I liked

I've gorillapods, ultrapods, and $10 junk tripods in the past without a problem, but I would like to get a real tripod now as my need for it is increasing. There are so many tripods out on the...

I don't really know how to do curve adjustment...any good tutorials?

I noticed this piece of wire among my lens element recently - seemed like it peeled off from the multiple rings. It hasn't caused any degradation in image quality, although I do use an APS-C camera...

I bought a used one beginning of this yr and it has flashed at least 1,000 times and nothing wrong with it so far - maybe a bit weaker at times when I use it simultaneously for pics. Hope it stays...

oh WOW! those reflectors with handles are exactly what I need - just bought it! I haven't played with reflectors enough yet to tell people what to do, so these would certainly help. I think I'll be...

Thanks Lebowski! And good eye - I actually brightened the pictures in post-processing, so the overexposure was intentional (just my taste). I also did a bit of shadow lifting, and that does cause...

I took a couple portraits the other day but was short on time so had to do them during the morning, and the sun is very bright where I am. So I tried to overcome possible harsh shadows with a...
