Sony 35mm f/1.8 DT SAM ( SAL-35F18 ) with LA-EA2 on NEX-6

Just wondering if anyone has tried this lens on the 6 ?, I am after a faster lens to use inside (at present I use a Minolta 28mm f/2.8 on the adapter)
The SEL35 f/1.8 version here in NZ is double the price and has I already have the LA-EA2 is it worth going for it.
Thanks

Re: Focus peaking with LA-EA2 and the Playmemories wifi app

I was wrong, using the LA-EA2 on the Tamron 200-500 f/5-6.3 I can use focus peaking using M and DMF, and even adding the Kiron 2x tele converter into the mix I can use M and focus peaking (not sure why I did not get this first time) Also I can use focus peaking on my Minolta 28 f/2.8 and 50 f/1.4 an...

LA-EA2 with teleconverter

I have a KIRON AF TELE-CONVERTER 2X Mx-AF (MC7) and wonder if it can be used.
I thought I read somewhere that tele-converters can not be used on the LA-EA2 ?
So before I attach it can anyone give some advice
The Kiron has 8 pins (same as the lens side of the LA-EA2).
Thanks

Re: wide angle for nex6

Picked up the nex6 today, will put the wide angle on hold for a while to see how the 16-50 performs. Intresting to use a evf again after having owned the minolta dimage7.

New 85/2.8

I'll probably buy one. I will check to see whether is autofocuses on my 2X Teleplus. 170mm f/5.6 is a good 2X combo.
