Survives Nex5 & Hexanon 200mm/4


SONY Nex5 old APS-C camera has been left untouched for relatively long time. Inconvenience in the situation of daylight condition, invisible back monitor was the reason, but it's portability is undeniable, far smaller and lighter than any smartphones. The lack of EVF should be compensated at any rate, isolating the back monitor from external strong light invasion is the way. In addition, watching back monitor directly has good advantage to see focusing condition, better than EVF. A suitable loupe for this purpose was found out the other day, Hakuba's production, not so expensive but no Diopter control.
Relatively easy modification made it possible to carry out the destination, magnifying meniscus lens has put 15 mm backward in order to compensate my own Diopter minus 3.
Bloom starting flower was shot by Nex 5 with Minolta Macro-Rokkor 50/3.5 without specific inconvenience in the daytime use.

Free time makes me bid on some cheap price tag, Hexanon 200/4 lens came to me at 980 yen, appearance perfect but mold was scattered everywhere inside. Disassembling lens elements thoroughly and cleaning all of the surfaces applying black coating on all the element's external edge surfaces, I did full maintenance until obtaining 98% performance capability. Front element is perfect but rear one has weakness only on the rear surface of the most posterior element, small mold removed mark but this defect does not effect on it's resolution.
