This is meant to be another rolling review.I just received Metabones Speed Booster for Canon EF lenses on Sony NEX (E-mount). This piece of equipment caused quite some upheaval in the last few weeks, after the official announcement. It won't make much sense to write about the creators and technology behind, everything is described quite…
For a long time now, I wanted to try some of those "Super-Tele" lenses on a tinny NEX 7.By making this brief test, I realized once again, that everything is about compromises. Especially in photography, when it comes to the equipment.So, if you just want to know - which lens is better... don't read further.Here…
YES IT DOES!!! I feel safe enough now to say - Yes - RAWs from Sony NEX 7 with a firmware 1.01 are noticeably affected with a software corrections.Already in a previous article - http://www.verybiglobo.com/?p=55, I showed many proofs, but suddenly I found and bought NEX 7 with a previous firmware and compared both NEX…
I am starting to loose patience, waiting for SEL 3518 to become available in the Czech Republic. I know, it is very small market, but first samples were delivered to USA almost a month ago, and I believe at least few samples should come here too.Why I am so eager to get SEL 3518 in…
Some time ago, when I was testing Sony SEL 1018, I wanted to include few Canon EF lenses in a comparison too.Using a Metabones - Canon EF to Sony E mount Smart adapter version I, I realized on a few takes, a noticeable amount of the green casting in the edges.I didn't pay much attention…
The weather where I am is so bad, that I can't finish my testing yet.But after spending some time with SEL 1018, mounted mostly on NEX 7, I think I am ready to come with personal opinion.Following few web forums, I can see quite opposite impressions from a different users. There are quite a few,…
It's been almost 7 moths, since I got Metabones Smart adapter for EF lenses on NEX bodies. I have version I, meanwhile Metabones released version II, which with a latest firmware, allow even AF. (reported to be rather slow)However, I didn't use it too much. Mainly because, there are lot of those old legacy lenses…
Nonsense? Probably.But somehow I managed to have both lenses.So, let me start this part of the review differently than previous ones.No, I wouldn't recommend anyone to use this Nikkor on the NEX body instead of SEL 1018 f4 OSS. There could be only one reason to suggest or even think about it - a huge…
Sigma 19 f2.8 EX DN is one of my most used lenses on NEX 7. I am quite picky when it comes to wide angle but this little lens is so good that I simply trust it.How does SEL 1018 f4 OSS compare with Sigma? Well, there are few things to note before I show…
After initial impressions about SEL 1018 f4 OSS, which were rather positive, I decided to compare it with SEL 16 f2.8 plain as well as with mounted VCL-ECU1 0.75 wide angle adapter.The reason is to see, If I need to keep SEL 16 or not.I have to say, that I was never really happy with…
