Testing Tokina 11-16 and LA-EA2 and SAL35F18 on a Sunset

The Tokina can work with the LA-EA2 set-up but it seems to have some issue when used at slow shutter, some shots seems to be blown (overexposed). I do not know whether this is cause by the lens or firmware issue. The SAL35F18 work very well with the AF, however the freedom of focusing is rather limited.

A sample each from the sunset test outing (edited ).

LA-EA2 works with the Tokina 11-16 : Aperture and Autofocus

Finally, I upgraded my adapter to the LA-EA2. I cannot stand the fact that I cannot get to fully utilize the Tokina. Manage to trade in the LA-EA1 for RM200 at YL Camera Pudu. Surprisingly, the LA-EA2 is also cheap by RM10 there. This is a by far the best trade in camera shop in KL. I have asked around and none would like to trade in my LA-EA1. Only this shop would, and they are quite transparent since they have website with prices of the items they sale. They have wide range of camera items too. I would recommend them. However, they gave a low offer for my adapter.

Immediately tested the LA-EA2 and Tokina 11-16 aperture and walla!

 Who said this purple shining guy at Bukit Bintang, KL didn't budge.
