Tried seeds but they never seem to work. We purchased from hereI really like the idea of a wild flower bed. The councils here have some roundabouts planted with them and they look absolutely lovely. I've tried letting tubs lay an see what grows but so far it's not been a great success so we'll have to at least invest in some seeds.
Starting to question selling the 55mm 1.8 now. Had it out again and the sharpness is just on another level (probably won't show as well on here).

IMO it's the overall best 50-ish lens.
It hits the right balance between IQ, AF, size and aperture. The only downside really for me is the price
I have been led to believe it always arrives in 3 days and they have the bestest customer service. All the folks who say otherwise and all bad reports of them not replying and simply refusing to help are all lying.Talking of buying grey, still waiting for that lens from e-infinity paid for on May 4. No sign of it having reached UK yet and no update from e-infin.
Forget all the 'moral' preaching elsewhere, this inefficiency is the best argument against buying grey...
For the sake of £50 no thanks.Ever considered buying grey?

That's what I picked up from the reviews.E-infin have awful levels of service when something goes slightly wrong.
Panamoz are much better in this regard.

Hence I used panamoz for my last purchase.
Plus they "almost" matched the E-infinity price.

I knew this going in too. Bought the A9, 70-200, and 200-600 off Panamoz and they were fast and flawless. As you say, not much more than e-infin but with the benefit of 3 years warranty. The single item I went for at e-infin was the 16-35 - and they have been awful. And ironically it's the lens I need most atm

Try and cancel with them first.Anyone had to cancel an order with e-infin? Thinking of doing this if I don't get a confirmed tracking number by Tuesday. My instinct is to do this through raising a claim through PayPal - any thoughts?

No idea but the first port of call should always be the merchant rather than starting a dispute. If you start too many disputes paypal will start questioning your motives so its best to use them wisely.Anyone had to cancel an order with e-infin?

To be fair, I've only bought a Panasonic 100-400 from e-infinity and a Sony 200-600 from panamoz.
I've had no issues with either company, but used panamoz for my Sony lens due to the improved warranty situation both in extended term, and the more favourable reviews when something did go wrong.
Grey, I've used Digital rev and camera in the post and both were perfect.
I know there's the moral question but in my defense I've only bought stuff which was scarce in the UK.
E-Infinity always have sent me a photo of the item before they are ready to ship it.No, what's that then?

Hey chaps, I'm a Sony A7 owner (as of a few days ago) and picked up a new 50mm f1.8 to compliment it yesterday.
I was wondering if anyone could help me with auto focus on the A7. On my Sony a6000 I usually have it in AF-C and Wide. That works for most shots but when it doesn't the Centre button does a AF-S Centre auto focus and I then re-frame like I used to with my DSLR. This combination covers most of my shooting.
I can't seem to replicate this with the A7. The button for Center is set to "Standard" on the a6000 but the A7 doesn't seem to have that option. I shoot both in aperture priority most of the time. Any ideas?
I got my second copy of 50mm f1.8 yesterday, I still find it accurate. But not fast.Not sure, sorry. @woof woof has a A7 and might be able to help.
How are you finding focussing with the 50 f1.8? My experience wasn't good, but hopefully yours is better.
I took some portraits for a family earlier.
First paying job with people involved since the 5th of March
Almost feels like a little step towards normality.
First time out in the park for nearly two months a couple of days ago, did me the world of good.
I've just done the same this morning, I was almost nervous!
To be honest I was, probably just because I haven’t done any people stuff since the last wedding we were able to do.
Was fine by the time I got there though. Really cheered me up to be honest it was great to be back doing “real work” again.
They were a nice wee family too and gave me a good chance to shoot a lot with my 135GM as well. Got some photos that I was really happy with.
yeah and I half knew the family so it was good fun! I used 85mm all the time. To be honest a 135 would’ve been far more suitable.

It's a big step back from the a6000 and 50mm (OSS) combo for AF.
