While I agree with Bill, that all things equal, it's preferable to have a new first party lens to retain all the benefits of a modern camera body, I don't share his cynical view of lens adapters and use of third party lenses. :)
I've PK to e-mount and NikonF to e-mount adapters for the NEX-7 and 5. In fact just within the hour I purchased a Super Takumar 300/4 for use with it and now will need an M42 to e-mount adapter. :))) It'll be very specialized use, always tripod mounted and generally pointing up. I've read there may be a red fringe issue that can be corrected in post, and sample images I've seen are quite good. There's a whole sub-culture of NEX, 4/3, and Fuji users that are producing wonderful images with legacy lenses. Not everyone eschews them. How was your trip to BC, Bill?
