Re: very best wides for nex 5n......


I am very confused by this thread.

Some great and bad examples from same lens on 5N.

On the pictures of the ZM 25mm it looks like the lens ins\'t focused at infinity on 5N. Is there any chance that with your particular adapter it isn\'t actually reaching focus at infinity? I am trying to figure out why some seem very happy with ZM 25mm and others not so much. Is it really a problem with AA filter interaction? Or is there a chance it is a less than ideal adapter at play here?

I have the same confusion about the 21mm lenses. I couldn\'t drawn any definitive conclusion from this thread Is there any concensus here?

Here is what I do know:

Everyone loves the ZM 18mm

Everyone likes CV 15mm f4.5 or at least feel it is great value for money - Mine arrives Tuesday

Everyone likes IQ of 28mm G lens but no one likes adapter focus

Everyone likes Leica\'s, but only a minority feel they are worth the high price or have the money

Here is what I think I learned:

CV 28\'s not for me - low contrast
CV 20mm in Nikon mount may be a good choice in 20-21mm range, but doesn\'t have the total potential of rangefinder lenses
ZM 28 may be a safer bet than ZM 25 but that is not crystal clear
There is a choice between sharpness and color shift you may need to make at 21mm rangefinder lenses.

Am I close top right on these?
