He's an overly affectionate cat. Which is great for getting him to throw himself on the ground and pump out the cuteness vibes.

Some cats have a way of doing that.

I just bought the 1.7 but I am also about to buy the 1.4.
Your samples just killed me..awesome!
Have you tried the 1.7 to compare them ?

Just received my KAR-NEX adapter from K&F Concept today. Very well made, tight tolerances, and focus to infinity and no further. A few samples from my NEX-6.

Nice shots Tony, like 'em all! Last one is captivating through its simplicity and choice of depth of field.

Thanks Ad. I haven't seen much on this lens, and it has a nice feel on both the NEX and OMD.

LOL! Thanks.

Nice! The samples posted here alerted me to this lens. I picked up one with fungus for cheap. The few initial shots look real good. Can't wait to clean it and see what it can really do.
