I think Canon and Nikon are also cheaper in price because they sell more lenses so they can lower their profit margin. Also the none "L" canon lenses don't impress me much. Sigma do offer lower...

I think they both are too high for average consumers but they are priced perfectly for their quality.Since I bought my next I got LBA and through my research I found the 50mm to be the easiest to...

The camera were sat at the very edge of the table. After uploading the pictures I realized that the SEL35F18 had the hood reversed on the lens so it gave a title up on the camera. The Pentax didn't...

I didn't know about the advantage of the landscape prints so the chart was printed out as Portrait on a 8x10.

I used a ceiling fan with 4 cfl lights that are probably 60 watt each on a 8 feet high ceiling. Also had the kitchen lights on which was behind the wall where I tapes the chart to.Chart was printed...

All shot at f1.4 with Lens Turbo. I just started shooting pictures at the start of this year so still very shy when using my camera in public. Also I am slow at focusing and mostly bad at it so...

I think the lens got set to A instead if the M and was stuck wide open. I will shoot some more tomorrow.There is enough room in the lens turbo that the rear protruding rear element clears it with...

It shows with both the Pentax-m 50mm and the m42 50mm.I just took off the UV filter I had and it's not there anymore. I will leave it off and see if it shows up tomorrow.

There are blue dots in the pictures when shooting at a light. I can see it in Live View. Also there are Brown bars in my Live View sometimes when the shutter is slow but it doesn't show in the...

Here are some simple tests with the Pk to Nex turbo lens. M42 to PK adapter from Pentax  Here is the M42 adapter on the PK to Nex Turbo Lens  First I like to say this was a quick hand held test I...

I have a Pentax made M42 to PK adapter. It works really well with my M42 50mm. If the lens turbo has the same K mount as the ME I think it will work fine and I hope it does.This m42 adapter used...

True, but in China nothing produced there are kept in secret unless each part is made at a different factory and then assembled in the USA. I'm pretty sure they changed a little of Brain...

I think it's a gimmick but a step in the right direction. Hoping the next gen will be as fast as SLT.I can say that PDAF is slightly faster but not fast enough to track my kids running at me. I use...
