NEX-5 with Minolta Rokkor MC 58mm f/1.2

G.K. mounted the ultra fast Minolta Rokkor MC 58mm f/1.2 on the Sony NEX-5 and here are some of the results. The resulting 87mm equivalent focal lenght and the very shallow depth of field makes the Rokkor 58/1.2 a perfect portrait lens.

    Hello, I have a NEX-5, a La-LE1 and a 50mm f/1.7 lens Minolta Maxxum and they taste great.
    I would like to help. Is there any function that enables the camera auto-focus lens that, because when I use the camera, she turns manual.

    Thanks.

    @ken. Do u mean any lens with built in motors or just Sony SAM and SSM lenses? I was hoping Zeiss would do a E mount series and help Sony with their crappy native lenses.

How To Install OpenMemories AppStore

OpenMemories App Shown on Camera's Application Tab DHI Enterprises shows us how to install a third party application for Sony Cameras which support the PlayMemories Camera Apps. The third party OpenMemories AppStore can now be installed using the same method shown. WARNING from the OpenMemories AppStore developer: Is it safe? This is an experiment in a very early stage. All information has been found through reverse engineering. Even though everything worked fine for our developers, it could cause harm to your hardware. If you break your camera, you get to keep both pieces. We won't take any responsibility. However, this seems to be safer than tampering with your camera firmware directly.

Use Medium Format Lenses with Sony A7 Cameras

Image
Sony A7 ii with a Mamiya 645 80mm f/1.9 lens via Kipon Baveyes Focal Reducer. Here is a review of the Kipon Baveyes medium format lens focal reducer adapter for Sony A7 cameras.  This adapter has a lens element that concentrates the medium format image circle down to the size of a 24x36mm sensor of the Sony A7 cameras with a 0.7x factor.  The 80mm lens above has an equivalent focal length of 56mm.  The concentrated light also gives us one stop of extra light.  The f/1.9 is an equivalent f/1.36, a very fast medium format lens. This a manual focus lens adapter. Kipon Baveyes Medium Format Lens Focal Reducer Review by @mattiasburling Read the complete review at gunpowdervideo.com . Thanks @mattiasburling !
