My new Voigtlander 15mm Heliar (M-mount) was just delivered and it is KILLING me that my M-NEX adapter didn't arrive! I'll post some shots once I get the adapter.

Has anybody tried a Leica 28mm Elmarit ASPH on a NEX? I feel like the focal length and (incredibly) small size would make for an amazing combination.


Haven't used that one specifically, but I owned the type III 28 and currently own an Elmarit 24 ASPH. Given my experience with those, I'd say your supposition is right on target.

Philber, that's truly a lovely shot. I do think that the nex is only limited by the glass available. I have both the 16 and the 18-55 for mine. I also use my nikon & zeiss glass on it with better results but honesly, sometimes I just want to use AF. So it would be nice to have better lenses. I don't hate the 16mm lens though. It's fine. Not great. I like the 18-55 better but the 16 acts like many 16mm...sharp in the center, not on the edges. I find that it behaves better when shooting in

Nice shots, Permagrin (love the handle, by the way). I finally got my F to E adapter, so I'm anxious to give the Nikon 35/1.4 a whirl on it. Nice to see someone else is having good experiences with it.

Thank you very much for the tips. I'll be sure to keep them in mind.

I thought about the Voigtlander lenses though I haven't done my research yet. I'm very interested in the Canon series of lenses (L and standard) but I'm not aware of any adapter for Canon lenses, but Voigtlander and Zeiss lenses seem interesting.

My budget is very low - so much so that it'll take me a month or two to be able to afford the NEX itself. So if I were to invest in Zeiss or Voigtlander, it's most likely going to be Voigtlander. This is the alternative thread so I'll stay alternative here, but I've also got the Canon system to think about (and whether or not I may be better off investing in a full-on SLR instead).

Either way, thank you very much for your help. I truly appreciate it.

Experimenting with a Tilt adapter on my recently arrived NEX-5 for a few moments today.
I think it's going to take a little while to work out a good system to use this combination effectively and purposefully. It is a bit challenging to see what is happening on a little 3" LCD. With the ZF 50/1.4 (at f2.0):

I actually very much like the 35 on the nex5. I keep it with that kit instead of my nikon kit. lol

Andrew am I correct your Voigtlander 12mm is the M mount and not the SL (F mount) version?

What adapter do you use?

I have three adapters in the M-Emount. I shimmed two of them to reach infinity, the third is very close. I will be putting them up for sale today as I have a GH2 arriving.

My 12mm is the screw mount with an M adapter on it. I went with the screw mount so that I could attach filters to it.

Let me know if you are looking for adapters, as I have a bunch...

For those who may be interested in how NEX's size would be when attaching ZF lens. Image of NEX with ZF35 + Novoflex, sitting next to ZF21 + D700

Hmm, both the ZM 18mm and ZM 25mm are on my local CL board at pretty good prices...

Cool shots, sebboh, but you have some pretty noticeable spots you may want to clone out (or get a sensor/lens cleaning)...

yeah, old shot. i noticed those right after i uploaded and was too lazy to reupload after cloning them out. some of the others had a few too, i just noticed those in time. i do seem to be getting quite a bit of dust on my sensor with the NEX. does anybody have any suggestions for cheap and safe sensor cleaning solutions? in the past i've either had someone else clean it for me or never needed to clean the sensor (yay olympus).

Rumors has it that the Zeiss lens for NEX will be a 24/1.7. I hope its image quality is at least an equal to ZM25.

A few from the ZM25 and NEX5 combo.

These are excellent, wyan! Not just technically speaking, either - fascinating subjects also.

Although I love using Nikkor's on the NEX-5, images from Zeiss lenses like your ZM25 are really tempting me to look in that direction.

Wyan - +1 to mnscott. Great photos. Did you use cornerfix, or you have not had the need for it with ZM25 ?
