Wow, incredible footage - I never thought you'd get such clean output from the nx1000.

What sort of an adapter do you need for the tamron lens? How does that lens compare with the 50-200mm?

I use this adaptor: Adaptall 2 - NX:

http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Tamron-AD2-Adaptall-II-Lens-to-Samsung-NX1-NX210-NX200-NX10-NX5-Camera-Adapter-/271948792609?hash=item3f51694321:g:cwIAAOSwD0lUfICW

I sold my 50-200mm because I found it almost impossible to use manual focus in the macro range and the auto-focus in macro was poor, also maximum magnification is less than the Tamron's that I use.

The Tamron adaptall 2 80-210 (103A) is a bargain, I pair this up with the 28-70 (44A) which also has good macro capability. These are both very sharp lenses from about f5.6-16 up but accurate focus is essential.

Cheers.
