Nex 5 lens alternative


Don't forget September Photokina, where there are rumours of a CZ E-mount lens being unveiled.
 

Aiya. I would say, get the brandless 25mm f1.4 and a RJ c to nex from chiif for $80. Slr magic is another alternative. In fact slr magic more expensive compared to other brandless CCTV lens. Do a search in eBay to get good deals.

But u say got dust and hair leh haha
 

Actually doesn't affect IQ at all. Quite ok leh. Worth trying. Believe me.

Or maybe the more expensive pentax 25mm f1.4. Owned the pentax and brandless CCTV lens before. Both got different style of effect. I go search for the pictures. Maybe can post and u guys decide which is better.
 

Yes.. using Alpha 100 Infrared modified version :cool:

Bro I had mod a Nex5 into IR... Check with Bro Fatigue...")

It can be use as a normal cam as well as an IR cam... Check with him for more detail...") ;)
 

There was a prob with the payment confirmation page.

It states a security risk?

Anyone encountered the same issue?

Hi there, I am new to the forum and just bought nex5 dual lens kit. Does it mean if the rumors are true they will work with autofocus ?

Honestly all these talks are just speculations. Many is just second guessing that af on adapters will work after patches, that will only work for alpha lens with ssm.

I will think that we shouldn't put too much hope for that la . Just hope they come out with e mount lens line up ;p

Chances are yes, but only if the lenses are SSM (like the new Sigma or Tamron lenses).

I received my CCTV lens today! Just did a quick test, the build is solid and there is no hair or dust inside. :bsmilie:
The bokeh at f1.7 is nice!
