Keeping it short and sweet, I’ve been out and about a few days lately with a few different lenses, the 75-150mm f/3.5 E, the 36-72 f/3.5 E, the 105mm f/2.8 Ai-s Micro, and the 50mm f/1.4 Nikkor S-Auto. All four are good in different ways, no doubt about that. Let’s just have a picture-centered post today, shall we? (P.S. Some of the shots in here from the 75-150mm may make it into the review, just so I don’t get called out in the future for a double post!)
All the following taken with the NEX-7:

I really wish I could have captured this before the deadline on the silhouette project co-hosted by SeeingSpotsPhoto and Nick Exposed. Oh well. Maybe next time. 🙂

That’ll be it for this set guys and gals, thanks for dropping by. So far I’m loving the 3-D pop an f/1.4 lens provides, the close-focus abilities of a 1:.88 macro (via extension tube) never ceases to amaze me, and the slight versatility of a 2x zoom are nice whenever I get tired of “zooming with my feet”. 🙂 Regardless, I still love my primes more. To each their own.
Hope you liked this set, and if so, be sure to get on my follow list not only for instant updates on future posts, but to also be on my favorite-people-in-the-world list. Have a great day everyone. 😀
