Unless u like serious vignetting or square crop shots tried a few shots on nex 5n no thanks...

Vignetting is never a problem...and when you crop the image you will generally have a larger angle of view than with the smaller sensor.... You are doing the same thing in reverse when you use the smaller sensor with a ff lens ...its still a different angle of view than what the lens was originally intended for...I think all of you still know how to crop and edit no???

Agree of the angle of view part. Not so agree on the "same thing in reverse when you use the smaller sensor with a FF lens", correct me if i'm wrong. U use a smaller part of the sensor when you crop, vs using part of the FF lens on a crop sensor. You lose resolution when you crop. Certainly if one decides to use a m43 lens on a nex body and do post cropping for every shot, that's fine and that's what I mentioned "unless one likes vignetting or square crop shots". I personally don't like that much vignetting, if I want it, i would add it afterwards.

Interesting lens, Omd has this magnify evf to assist on manual focus. Does the evf magnify works with this lens as well ?
