If anyone in the continental US was interested in purchasing my Series-E zoom lenses that I have extensively reviewed, I now have listed all three on eBay. This is the site that I have done literally all of my used lens transactions, both buying and selling. I have yet to run into any real problems, as the buyer protection policy is superb for deterring scammers. I enjoyed all three lenses in varying degrees, but the two telephoto zooms in particular were optically superb. The only reason I’m selling the entire set is that I am a prime guy, and have faster prime lenses that cover all these focal lengths. Here are some links if interested:
Nikon 36-72mm f/3.5 Series-E (Review)- (UPDATE: SOLD)
Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 Series-E (Review)- (UPDATE: SOLD)
Nikon 70-210mm f/4 Series-E (Review)- (UPDATE: SOLD)
Have a great week guys and gals, looking forward to writing my weekend update already. 
Hi Matt, thank you very much for your informative articles. I use the NEX 5N and I am drawn to the the NEX7 or 6 as a second body. What selection of primes would you consider to be ideal for these cameras? Thanks
Hey Peter, glad you’re getting useful info here.
If I had to choose three essential primes for my style of shooting on the NEX-7, it’d have to be the Nikon 105mm f/1.8 AI-s, the Nikon 180mm f/2.8 AI-s ED (if you love telephotos), and a close tie between the Sony 35mm f/1.8 OSS and Nikon 50mm f/1.8 Series-E.
However, if you were speaking of only autofocus lenses, my ideal set would probably be the 35mm f/1.8 OSS and 50mm f/1.8 OSS. I would say also an 85mm f/1.8, but it unfortunately doesn’t exist yet. Instead, Sony just announced an overpriced (subjective, of course) 20mm pancake.
Hi Matt,
Your prompt reply is very much appreciated. The Sony OSS lenses are tempting but I think I will first try my hand with a Nikon 50mm and use the focus peaking which I have found very helpful. I tend to use the DMF mode quite a lot. So far I only have the kit lens and the 55-210 zoom.
Great! It’s a good and cheap lens, that Series-E. It’s worth every penny.
