Hi folks!
![]() In this tread I will show som pictures taken with my Sony NEX-5N, which I bought because I needed something to play with. For more seriouse work (I do mostly landscapes) I use my Nikon D300s, but I usually have one or two "fool-around"-cameras on the side to play with as well. The reason I bought into the NEX-system is its ability to make use of old Legacy-glass which I like very much. More about this later, when my adapters are coming in through the mail. For today, just this one shot here from near where I live, in Fredrikstad in the South of Norway. ![]() Taken just some hours ago - some heavy clouds coming down the river, and it rained about halve an hour later. Enjoy! ----------------- Edited: Just another "make" of the above. ![]() Walter_S

Hi!
Another small series today, mostly to show the difference in angle between th 18-55mm Kit-lens and the 16mm f/2.8, pluss the attachments-lens Sony NEX Ultra Wide Converter VCL-ECU1. http://store.sony.ca/webapp/wcs/stor...Number=VCLECU1 ![]() A coastal scene, shot at 44mm with the standard kit-lens ![]() Same scene @ 18mm - standard kit-lens ![]() Same scene, but now with 16mm f/2.8 ![]() Same scene, with 16mm f/2.8 + the Ultra Wide Converter ![]() Still sthe same scene, but now with some tilt to the camera to show more of the foreground. In this slightly tilting-down posistion the UWC distorted the sides quite a bit, so that I had to change the perspective some. Best regards, Walter Last edited by Walter_S; Apr 25, 2012 at 7:03 AM. |

Thanks, rpmarques - so, may be you will enjoy the next one as well?
![]() Which is a blend of the Black & White picture in post #4 - and the color one below. The blend is 60% B&W and 40% Color. With that blend I tried to create a mood that is more in line with these old wooden buildings in the Old Town of Fredrikstad. ![]() Original color one - but it is not very exciting, and I actually prefer the B&W and the above 60%blend. I'll try to keep'em coming...if anyone is interested, that is! ![]() Last edited by Walter_S; Apr 27, 2012 at 4:15 PM. |

And the wood anemone or windflower (I think it's called in the US) is blooming in big colonies amongst the birchwood and oaktrees. The NEX 5N is such a joy to use when photographing flowers with its tiltable LCD-screen!
![]() Low camerapositions are a joy with the NEX-5N. With Sony 16mm. Some (or in fact, most...) lens-reviews have this 16mm down to be a bit on "the soft side". I don't think this is visible unless you are a pixel-peeper... ![]() The evening sun is casting long shadows. 18-55mm kitlens ![]() Nice light for such a flower. 18-55mm kitlens ![]() Some "fallen giants" on the ground. Oak trees in different stages of decay. Taken with a "Legacy Glass"-lens. Old, manual Vivitar "Auto Wide Angle" 35mm f/2.8 (made by Tokina) on Big_Is M42-NEX adapter. Vivitar has 42-mount. ![]() Just a closer look. Taken with my old and manual Vivitar 35mm f/2.8 on NEX-adapter by Big_Is Bye folks! ![]() Last edited by Walter_S; May 1, 2012 at 2:39 PM. |
