Just reading up on the Leica tri elmar lenses.

Will be cool if there will be such line up for rx2. I think if they come with tri focal length, they will fit a niche market compared to the current 35mm f2 which is losing ground to a7 due to less flexibility. (Cost as well,cam plus evf is damn high)


Haha just a wild thought

Hi all

Trying to fig out this "issue" i encountered last night.

Was walking around with my family are Vivocity link way to Sentosa - I would said lightning was dim but not dark. Using 35mm F2.8 - was I looking into the View finder I find that the feedback was out of sync and slow. I try to switch the resolution from high to normal and its still the same...wondering anyone here encounter the same "issue"?

Also is there anyway to lock the setting, there a few time when I took the camera out out my bag and discover the wheel was accident pressed and ISO set to 50!

 

[ZoomZ]

Wow. If this is a perfectly aligned set, this is the best price ever for a 35mm Summilux FLE! Brand new is always out of stocks and retail price is more than $7k!

Just saw 3-4 sets of the Sony semi hard LCD protector at Sim Lim. Think stocks are healthy now.

I am using Martin Fields which covers the whole screen perfectly and no gaps between the screen and the protector, which i prefer more. If you wish to get the semi hard now, grab one at Sim Lim Sony - $25 each.

Think they have 1 last set of the 35mm f2.8 FE as well. No stocks almost the whole Singapore for this superb lens, grab fast! Selling at RRP at $1,069.

The sony semi screen protector is available at sony bugis. I bought one yesterday.

You can lock the ISO wheel in the menu

Crap... I think that Sales guy I talked to was a clueless idiot then... He basically just looked at that shelf which had the F20M flash on the back and told me out of stock

Nothing new . . . once I asked one of the twits to unlock the display peg so I could buy a 67mm lens cap (there were several on the peg), and he told me they had no stock.

Another time I asked if they had the FDA-EV1S in stock and the idiot went to check, then came back and proudly handed me an OVF.

The other day I went in looking for a strap with split O-rings and the smarta$$ told me to try 5th floor Orchard Ion (which is a carpark).

Worst was a couple of years ago when I went there and asked for a NEX-7 (most places had no stock at the time), and the salesman asked, "What kind of product is that, sir?"

Actually, no, the worst was when I went there hoping to test the Zeiss 24mm f/1.8 for NEX, and found that they had only a dummy lens! "It's the exact appearance, size and weight of the real thing, sir," said the salesperson. Hey, how it looks is all that matters if you don't give a $hit about IQ… ;p

The semi hard protector should be $19 and not $25
