Does the NEX actually allow the picture to be taken with a faster f/stop or is it virtual. IE is the picture when developed F1.8 or does it say F1.4?

It physically boosts the light by one stop, there is nothing "virtual" about it.

Hi, I have an A58 and the beer can lens works perfectly in auto mode. Hope this helps... I am not sure about the mount on the Nex though !!!

That's a good question. So I checked it out with my Nikon D600 to see what happens. It turns out that the effective f-stop does change through the full magnification range. I set the aperture to f-2.8 at infinity and then focused up close on a small object. The camera was set to Aperture Mode so mechanically, the aperture was fixed the whole time. The effective f-stop was reduced to f-4.8 at 1:1 magnification. This result is expected due to the drop off in light at this high magnification. Hope this helps.

Hi Justin, on the nex-7 it's between the 24 and the kit zoom at f4. Therefore very good, but the 24 is a special piece of glass

All the NEX models have NO built in image stabilization. Stabilization is built into the E-mount lenses.

You'll get a better f stop down to 2.8 which is essentially when taking pictures

No. You have to use the manual focus. I do not think this is an issue because the NEX has focus peaking where it highlights the areas that are in focus.

Sorry, it only works with Nikons NEF RAW files. If you convert it to a TIFF file you could use about 80% of what Capture NX2 has to offer.

I don't know if this works with this camera or not. If it is an NEX mount then yes. However you need to know that you will not have any f-stop control. All the electronic things won't work as this is just a dummy adapter, there are not electronic fittings. If that doesn't matter to you then that's okay. If you want f-stop control I'd find a different adapter for some of the older manual lenses where you can adjust the f-stop by using the f-stop ring on the lens.

if you want a "faster" lens that takes pictures in lower light, you need something like the 35mm f1.8 to achieve this. When the f-stop is opened wider ( for example 1.8 is wider than 3.5), you will allow more light in, allowing you to take pictures at a faster shutter speed depending on what your ISO is set at.

it is ever so slight, and less than some other cameras i have used.. it also depends on the f stop setting you are using.. there is a delayed flash setting that will also lengthen that time.

Its pretty fast, not in burst setting its about a sec. I never use auto though because ever since watching the videos online its pretty easy making better pictures using the other settings.

it is pretty fast in Program mode, but incredibly slow in the mode that takes a 4 second video before taking the still picture. Avoid that mode like the plague.

My question with the FS8 is does it have a red-eye removal after the picture is taken on the camera? My other cameras have this but I don't think this one does. Can anyone please advise me? Thanks......

It has a High speed burst mode setting [10.5 shots per second] (within manual setting) however the quality is compromised and locked at 2304x1728 and cannot be changed. As you take more pictures the shooting may slow down. There also is the standard continuous shooting mode [3.9 shots per second] (within auto). Essentially the same as above goes for this mode even though it is slower, you will be able to take pictures at a better resolution.

Hi Evelyn, I purchased the VF4 from Amazon for my new EP5 camera,and as I far I know its a plug and play device, but it only works when your eye is in proximity to it eg looking through it, and then switches from screen to viewer otherwise the screen is on when the camera is initially turned on, hope this helps.
