Red Eye reduction 220 ex and G7: Does the 220 EX reduce red eye in photos taken with the G7?
1496828
I just came back from a vacation and shot over 1000 photographs using a G9 and the 220ex. I did not notice any red eyes in my photographs during evening photographs. I used the flash on all my shots, to fill in and they all came out great.

Most DX lenses are "G" designated and missing the aperture ring. This adapter does not carry any data from the lens to the camera. It also has no mechanical connection. Therefore, most DX lenses will be stuck at the smallest aperture and photos would be severely underexposed. With this adapter, you must focus and set your exposure manually. If your lens has an aperture ring and focus ring, this well-built adapter works fabulously. With focus peaking, manually focusing is a pretty quick and easy task. Keep in mind, the exif data will be missing info like aperture setting.

Appears to work with both. The key to this question is lies in the fact that the adapter has both a Red Dot and a White Dot. It should be compatible with both types of lenses.

I own both. Definitely no adapter needed. 70-400g & G2 lenses are full-size A mount, not E mount. Adapter is only needed to adapt A mount lenses to smaller NEX or E mount.a77m2 & 70-400G2 are a Terrific combination.Best of luck!

I have the original version on a NEX-7. I haven't noticed any purple fringing (chromatic aberration), nor have I gone looking for it. So no comments on that aspect. That aside, to answer your direct question, both the NEX-7 and the A6000 have APS-C size sensors, and E (not FE) lens mounts, so there should be no question that either the original version or the updated version will attach physically, and will have a large enough image circle to fully cover the sensor on either camera.

The G15's fast lens can get an equivalent image in one-third of the ambient light, based on the G12's f/2.8 lens versus the G15's f/1.8 lens. The G15 has an additional 2 megapixels on its sensor, which would result in a slight improvement in image quality. That said, for your application, you're unlikely to notice a major improvement in image quality except for cases where you are shooting in low light and not using the flash. Also be aware that unlike the G12, the G15 does not have the flip-out/tilting rear display panel. That's actually the reason I bought the G15, because there is no chance that I'll snap it off. The built in display also reduces the depth of the camera body slightly. If you want the tilt-out display, then last year's G1X model would be your current upgrade path from the G12. I don't know if next year's model will feature the return of the tilt-out display; some buyers obviously like it, and some don't.

This convertor does NOT have the additional contacts of the Canon or the Tamron Pro convertors. Therefore the camera does not "know" it's there. If your camera is designed to cut off AF beyond F5.6, and 1.4x makes it effectively slower than 5.6, the camera will try to AF, and it may or may not succeed, depending on light, colors, contrast, etc. Your EXIF will not report the adjusted specs.

Not at all. They are meant to reduce the amount of red in the whites of your eye.

WOW, YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS . . . THANKS FOR HEADS UP ABOUT EXR , (caps lock), i was about to spring for it with the reduced price. I can't afford it at the moment anyway; well, let's say another mistake would be disastrous for me, I've just GOT to figure out how to lighten those shadows on th hx1, Portraits are IMPOSSIBLE when eyes turn black as coals. Sony should be ashamed. The earlier Fuji's did such a great job with color . . . not as SHARP OR QUICK AS X1 THOUGH. BUT I take pics (not real professional, but essential, and dull eyes are, well, really really dull. Kills the pic really.) I MUST SOLVE THIS! Enjoying talking wth you. ANy other scoops would appreciated. WOW, YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS . . . THANKS FOR HEADS UP ABOUT EXR , (caps lock), i was about to spring for it with the reduced price.

Yes, without a doubt. I'd guess about twenty five percent smaller. The image quality is about on par with the 12-60, but it focuses slower, unless you get the second edition of the 14-54. Good luck.

yes, with the LA-EA4 and LA-EA3 adapters. the more expensive LA-EA4 with faster autofocus. when i bought my A7r, there was a promotion where i got that $350 USD adapter for only $5 US

Did you buy the LZ7? Does it really eliminate red eyes for blue-eyed people in photos?

Hi Nemeth, at the end of the HS30EXR fixed lens has a 58mm thread... You just need to screw any lenses of the kit, you can even use those lenses with other cameras just use one of diameter adapters that come with the kit. This kit is perfect for HS20EXR and HS30EXR. I hope have helped you, sorry my english. Hugs.

Yes. I use a Helder 1.7x converter I found at B&H; Photo. Works well but I use a long lens brace because it feels like it strains the camera without it. More info in my Amazon review of the camera.

Just to see what would happen, I actually shook my G7 up and down while taking a photo and it turned out very good. The only drawback is when using a good bit of zoom and then the photo does get blurry sometimes.

I am using a LA-DC58k adapter with la-dc58k lens on a G12. It works fine, but honestly, it's more trouble than it's worth. The regular lens on the G12 really does 99% of what you would ever need.

No. You can adjust many things manually - ISO. Exposure etc. the flash has two red eye reduction modes.
