Sony The NEX Image thread

[BBW]

Many thanks to all for your recent additions. I have been a bit slow on catching up on all the threads. I am so glad to see so many new photos on this thread!

Dan (AKA Country Parson) - wonderful flowers!

If you don't mind clicking a link, I posted a few with the NEX-5 and 35mm 1.7 CCTV lens (purchased with the help of Don) in my mirrorless cameras gallery:

I really love this lens and plan to post a lot more I shot with it when I have time. I've always resisted Lensbabies but now I'm thinking I might really like one.

Damn sharp images!! Superb!!

 

[Country Parson]

Simon, great images with the CV lenses on the NEX. What adapter do you use?

 

[BBW]

Simon, Janis and Andy - you are all making it more and more difficult for me to withstand the draw of the NEX5! Superb color - and black and white! Wow. I'm getting an itchy trigger finger.

Simon, when you have a chance please stop by and give us an "official" unofficial intro in the Welcomes and Introductions forum, so we can give you the secret SC handshake.

That will all disappear when the X100 lands on your doorstep!!

Thanks for the kudos, they are appreciated!

Dan,
I bought NEX early so there was not a lot of suppliers for the adaptors which I ended up getting from Russia. It is marked "Pixee L(M)-NEX" if that's any help. They seem OK (I have 2), and like all adaptors, they allow focus slightly beyond infinity, which is a nuisance, but with the live view, who cares?


Here's a few more from the last couple of days:

Wild Lily

The wild Lilies are coming up in our woods, which are in the Uwharrie mountains region of North Carolina. I look forward to them every Spring. Here are some samples taken with the NEX5 and a 60mm Nikon macro lens.

Ooooh yes! Very nice. I love the little bug on the petal in the 1st image!! Image 3 is really nice and tranquil.

They are lovely, Dan and I can only imagine walking along through the forest and being met by one - or more - as though they were planted by someone long, long ago for that moment.

Are they fragrant - they must be, I'd think.

My favorite is your middle one. Something about its bloom looking upward and the darker, richer greens..with just enough in focus to give this lilly its place on the forest floor. Wonderful spring light!

BBW, Your comment on the middle one gives me an idea. Thanks.

Thanks Andy,
I stood there over 30 minutes until she walked in the scene.
I'm going to process it again and repost later....

Perfect in pink, Don. You're ahead of us up here in New York in so many ways.
