Wondeful shots all! The NEX platform seems to be suited to all types of photography, judging from the varied pics posted on this thread.
photoomaha, love your style of shooting! That dodgeball pic on #525 is stunning with all the diagonals running all over the composition, really nice! Also like your B&W treatment with your son's portrait, excellent!
sebboh, excellent pics with the 40Cron & 35Lux. Really like the look of the 35Lux on that shot of your daughter.
mawz, really nice architecture shot.
Jim, I've been following your post with the NEX7 and all your lenses, excellent pics throughout the thread.
Alan, very nice sharp shots with the FD lenses.
I'm still on the fence if I should keep my E-mount lenses particularly my Sony 24 1.8 since I already have a RX1, but the upcoming NEX7(n) could be interesting enough to keep me interested, especially if it could work better with wide angle M lenses.
A few pics taken last year with my NEX7 during a vacation in Tokyo.
First 3 shots 24 1.8, last 50 1.8OSS. Not sure if these Sony lenses qualify for this alt thread?
Joe,
Thank You.The Summaron never disappoints.Its the only lens that allows me to shut down the shadows / exposure while still leaving enough light in the center of the image.....It's hard to explain, maybe it's the"Leica glow" that every one talks about.
Jim
Lovely rose shot Jim, a better version of this from last July [edit - of course I mean that yours is the better version!], I think I lit it with my phone! Canon FDn 50/1.4:
Thanks for the feedback on my photos, appreciated.
alan_m, regarding the kit lens, its exceeded my expectations. Find it very usable.
So i decided to keep it, and use it.
Have the kit lens, a Tokina 90mm 2.5, and a Canon FDn 50 1.4 i received yesterday.
I need a good wide angle for landscapes. I will wait for the zeiss 12mm, then decide between that and the Sony 10-18 . Just check the reviews first.
Here is some pictures i took today with the 50mm i got yesterday.
Very happy with the sharpness, and handling.
Jim, the minimalist rose works for me, really liking it.
Taran, hot girl on a boat, good pose. good shot!
I was stuck indoors today and rehashed a few of my photos from the Yosemite backcountry last year. First is CV 15, new conversion. Second is CV 40/1.4, new conversion. Last is one I had not processed yet, also with the CV 40/1.4.
I've been following this thread for awhile, some really awesome and diverse work presented here, very inspirational. I've been using a Ricoh GXR and M-mount glass for awhile now. There's been not a peep from them regarding updates I've been hoping for, so I picked up a pre-owned NEX-6 to try out. So far I'm liking everything about it except the adapter situation, I'm returning my second dud now. Here are a few taken with the CV 15/4.5.
@Highfive - are you really a novice? Your (great) shots have a very assured, experienced look to them! And the FDn 50/1.4 is a fine lens also, though mine (and the great FDn 28/2.8) has been retired with extreme prejudice recently by FDn 35/2, my do-everything focal length on NEX/APS-C, for now! :-) Have a FDn 24/2.8 on the way; I'll see if it can compete.
One of those days when an ugly patch of semi-waste ground with nothing to photograph on first glance turns up a few shots with a bit of effort. FDn 35/2 + NEX-5 (yes, the old one!):
Yes, i am pretty new to this. I went to Australia in September for a month.
So 4 day before i left i got the idea it would be pretty handy with a camera to take some pictures from the trip.
Read some reviews, and ended up with the nex5n. Perfect size, and the IQ looked brilliant.
When i got home i was kind of hooked. Been shooting ever since
That 35/2 looks very nice, like the character and bokeh. Lovely creative shots!
i'm afraid i haven't gotten out much lately.
