A bunch of Nikkor legacy primes - what to keep (to use with Sony APS-C), what to sell?
#6
Quote:Just an outsider question: with autofocus adapters won't Nikon lenses function similar to native sony lenses ? or am I wrong ?
 

It seems they don't: the first available reviews of the Nikon-Sony adapters are revealing lots of problems. This might be something due to the fact that they are new products, but it can be also due to the fact that the Nikon F-mount is more complex to deal with. Sigma, for instance, clearly stated that they won't be making a MC-11 adapter for the Nikon world.

 

Back to my perspective, if I'm using a fast prime I don't need autofocusing: it means I have plenty of time to play, I have a static subject and thus focus peaking will do.
