Thread: Show what your adapted lens looks like on your NEX camera

Jinkies. That's an expensive adapter. I'll stick with my $15 rainbow one. Back to the drawing board. But thanks for the tip.

You can also order a cheap adapter with tripod mount. I ordered this one for instance. Be aware that the tripod mount may not be exactly parallel to the camera base, it's not in my case with and it's not even a small deviation. But of course you can adjust the tripod to get the camera horizontal again.

Late one Friday night I hit "Make an Offer" for this Zeiss pre-war 50 1.5, the next morning I realized I had bought it. Did not realize at the time that adapters for this lens are rather pricey. Luckily I found an adapter cannibalized from a Kiev camera for $60. Could not be happier now. Love, love love the OOF rendition and ergonomics.

Zemosabe, Your Sonar seem excelent!
What is his cost? Recently I have an offer for Jupiter 3 for about 130$... I dont know if it is reasonable price, when my 2 Jupiters 8 cost about 25$ each...

Mattithjah - Based on a quick ebay search $130 looks like a decent price for a good copy in excellent condition. I spent $200 on my Zeiss plus $60 for the adapter. I might go with the L39 version of Jupiter 3 if I had it to do over again.

I suppose I need to get a nice camera to take pictures of my other nice camera

Vivitar serie 1 70 - 210 mm by Komine - too heavy


Tokina SD 70-210mm


Canon FD 50 mm f1.8


Jupiter 8 50/2 - a sweet lens

Been lurking for a while but wanted to get involved. Here is my 5n with pentax k mount 55mm f1.8
