Won't that adaptor cost you a stop? I think it will. |
Not sure exactly what you're saying. |
The adaptor adds distance between the lens and the film plane or sensors, whatever the case may be. That affects DOF. |
check you u2u. Sorry Diane for the highjack. |
Please continue --- I enjoy the conversation as I learn from it. Also, I like that photo! |
The adapter maintains the same distance the lens would have had on the DSLR. DSLR sensors are further back into the camera than mirrorless, because
of the mirror. The adapter is designed to put the lens back to the same distance on the nex, thereby not having any effect on dof.
Diane, I'm sure you have noticed how close to the lens mount the sensor is in your nex 6.

I have an old nikon 105mm macro lens that's the best lens I have ever owned. I would like to use it on my canon dslr with an adaptor. These adaptors
vary greatly in price. What brand and model would you guys suggest?
Diane, I am not clear about the adjusted processing nex7 does in the camera. You mean it will darken the light areas and lighten the shadows if you
that is your intention?
PS I was a Nikon guy during the SLR days, I'm a Canon person during the DSLR era. I just think their sensors produce truer colors. Although everything
can be changed in photoshop so it matters little.

Interesting post processing on that 2nd image Diane. I think I like it. Just need to be with it a bit longer.
PS I'll gladly relieve you of those heavy lenses. I can only imagine what a burden they must be.  |
Thanks Igor,
Just for comparison, here is that image straight out of the camera --- mainly played with the contrast to bring out more detail. One of the things
I really like about the Nex6 is that it has a setting that exposes for several different points so what might be totally black unless one used a ND
filter, is exposed along with the bright areas.
And since you are a Nikon person, my Canon stuff would do you no good.   |

Here is a challenge for you if you want to monkey around.
The latest craze is HDR photography.
If you search on the web there are some great software packages that will do this for you or you can play with photo stacking in Photoshop
HDR, takes 2 or 3 shots with under exposed, overeposed images and then layer them. It will give you the bright areas and the dark areas with plenty
of detail.

Thanks for that website --- I will spend some time with it. I have an HDR program that I have played with--- too often with results that are quite
overdone! I am learning.
Since I don't have more than one exposure, I might change the exposure on copies and see what I can do. However, I have found that it is never as
good without the originals being at different exposures.
Here is one that I liked that I took earlier this year. It was done in the program I have, but in a setting called fused.
Again, after a quick look at that site, I need to spend more time with it and learn more---always so much to learn.
THANKS
