While I was searching for a new lens on eBay I found a [shoplink 5973 ebay]Japanese store[/shoplink] selling the Voigtländer 25mm f/0.95 along the MicroFourThirds to NEX adapter. The whole set costs you $1,450.00 which is not so expensive. Click the link to see the auction: [shoplink 5973 ebay]Nokton 25mm for NEX[/shoplink]. The lens will vignette quite a bit but if you want a better f/0.95 lens the only option is the $10,495.00 cheap [shoplink 5974 ebay]Leica 50mm f/0.95[/shoplink] :(

New Sony A55 review and superdeals at Adorama
[shoplink 3617]

Techradar (Click here) tested the Sony A55: “It would be very easy to dismiss this novel design as a gimmick, but for certain photographers it will provide a real advantage. Image quality is similar to contemporary conventional SLR cameras, but the size and weight of the A55 is much reduced, making this camera ideal for those who travel extensively, or just wish their SLR was a bit smaller and lighter.” A bit strange that the verdict sounds good but the final rating is 3/5 stars only. I checked the ratings from other cameras. The Nikon D7000 got three stars and the Pentax K-5 four stars. Both cameras do share the same A55 sensor but it looks like the Pentax K-5 can squeeze out the best image quality from the sensor.
