Focus here was on the formast flowers at the top. It locked at the first attempt but like I said in my post yesterday it's not the quickest system on the market. The Nex-5N is also a superb camera. The sensor is very very good but I prefer the Tri-Navi of the Nex-7. Bokeh is also very good, just look at the images from my previous posts.

08/04/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.81102
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/2.2 Exposure Time: 1/4000 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • SEL 50 f1.8 • Nex-5N
08/03/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8I'm really amazed at the results I'm getting from this lens. I have to admit that focus lock is not that fast. The latest m4/3 systems are faster but when it locks it locks. I've got some images here that show that and I'm going to posting quite a bit of them in the coming days.
For those of you not interested in this system, sorry, but I'm sure some of you may like to see some images from this combination. 1203
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/2.2 Exposure Time: 1/3200 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • SEL 50 f1.8 • Nex-5N
08/02/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8 + Nik SFXIIThis was converted using Nik SFXII. Well captured by the SEL 50 f1.8 and that Nik software is hard to beat. Really worth the money. Lots of detail in those leaves and I like the tones produced by SFXII. 2015
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/1.8 Exposure Time: 1/640 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8 • Nik • SFXII.
08/01/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8Checking focaus and bokeh again. It really cougght this plant swaying, again. Tried this twice in succession and succeeded both times. Bokeh looks good again and the white flowers at the bootom were not overexposed. The more I use the Nex system, the more I like it. 1319
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/1.8 Exposure Time: 1/400 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/31/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8Another bokeh shot. Looks good to me. Nailed focus too as the plant was actually swaying in the wind. I've now set focus on the Nex to DMF. That allows me to tune fine focus manually after the system thinks it's locked focus. Tried it a few times when I was testing the lens and seems to work quite well. I think I'll keep it on this setting from now on. 1056
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/1.8 Exposure Time: 1/400 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/30/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8Detail looks good and the leaves are really that green. BTW, the flower looks not quite white for the simple reason it wasn't. It was pale lilac in colour which actually does show in the image. Really impressed so far. 1049
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/3.5 Exposure Time: 1/250 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/29/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8Looking for some bokeh shots and some more backgroud separation images.
I don't know about you, but this lens delivers. This is only the 3rd or 4th lens I have tested that gives the 3D impression to the image. More of those to come later. The rose in the foreground really does stand out against the background. Sharp too, and the colours are true to how they were. 1159
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/1.8 Exposure Time: 1/1600 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/28/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8I like the rendition this lens gives me. Not unlike the CV lenses which is a good thing. Again the exposure was correct and focus was spot on. All these images were hand held and more snapshots than anything else. I was expecting a lot more missed focused shot than I had. Again a plus point for this lens. 1201
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/3.5 Exposure Time: 1/3200 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/27/12  Sonjy SEL 50 f1.8I really didn't know what expect after my few test shots around the house. I actually thought I had a Monday lens, where everything goes wrong.
I was really impressed by the images after an afternoon outing to the local arboretum. It nailed the focus with this one and the colours and micro contrast fit the bill too. 1292
NEX-5N Focal Length: 50 mm Aperture: f/3.5 Exposure Time: 1/4000 sec ISO: 200 • Sony • Nex-5N • SEL 50 f1.8
07/26/12  Sony SEL 50 f1.8I bought this lens on a whim after seeming some really nice images from it.
After trying to find the time to go out with it, I took the time last weekend and put all other obligations aside. After testing the lens around the house I was a bit dismayed by the quality I was getting. The mistake I did was not using the supplied hood. A tip for all users of this lens. Always use the hood with it. It really made a difference to the images. More to come from this lens in the next few days. 1212
