Sony a900 and Hasselblad lens adaptor
Received it today. (Fotodiox, $45, Hasselblad "V" lens adaptor to
Minolta/Sony A-mount). Initial tests are good, however, the intelligent preview of the Sony a900 does not work (get an error message). Too bad as the intelligent preview is a great way to check and adjust exposure before committing to shots. TTL metering works fine of course with the stop down on the lens. Hand held shots are clumsy with the CF lens as the aperture control is right handed on the lens. No big deal as I'll be using this mainly on the tripod. Focusing is not easy (with the 80 f/2.8). Need to go shoot some real subjects. -- -- r.p.e.35mm user resource: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpe35mmur.htm -- r.p.d.slr-systems: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpdslrsysur.htm -- [SI] gallery & rulz: http://www.pbase.com/shootin -- e-meil: Remove FreeLunch. -- usenet posts from gmail.com and googlemail.com are filtered out. |
