NEX series lenses HELP

[Lunaticsamurai]

Can anyone tell me what lenses i can use on the NEX series camera's with a convertor, i am looking at macro.

I read an earlier thread on here about the Sony Nex and apparently you can use any lenes on the market with the right adaptor!!

I did think that but was unsure.

I am not looking for anything with bells and whistles just a nice lens for macro, manual focus or auto doesn't matter.

So if i can go for any lens what would be a good macro with 1:1 or higher (5:1)
I dont really know what my budget is at the moment, just looking at options.

Get a Telplus Macro Teleconverter and a cheapy fast 50mm (matching mounts of course) and you'll be away.

With the right adapter would this be ok?

Yep, you can get adapters for most systems, but you do have to watch more modern systems using Autofocus as non of that will work when fitted to your NEX.

Mine is an Olympus OM setup - Zuiko 50mm f1.8 (£20 or so), Teleplus OP MC7 Macro Adapter and then the OM-m4/3 (in your case NEX) adapter. All manual focus of course, but suprisingly good results. (I've had supposedly good quality teleconverters before and they've all been naff)
