If you are completely crazy about fast lenses that you should take a look on this. The Photographer Aldo Navoni used the [shoplink 6323 ebay]De Oude Delft 50mm f/0.75[/shoplink] (!) on the Sony NEX-5. It might be worth t take a look on his Flickr page (Click here). I don’t know if there is any faster lens on earth you can use on a NEX!!!
You can get the lens on [shoplink 6323 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. But damn expensive!!!!

Wow…looks like crap. I guess there is such a thing as too wide open lol..
$2500 for a crap ??
yeah, I agree. Alles naar de klote.
U can just use a gausian blur and get the same result :D. Really crappy.
Never mind the price – the Ebay ad says it weighs 2.2kg!!! That’s a big chunk of glass…
Use lensbaby instead, although the aperture is not wide enough, but save two thousand to buy a Fullframe body. lol
tooOO wide not good ah..
I think we need to see some low-light “night action shots” with this setup to really see what it can do 😉 This is certainly only a special effects lens in bright light. I could imagine Stanley Kubrick using this (I think he had all kinds of weird, innovative ways to shoot movies).

Quote from the page:
“(Left) Specially machined aperture plate to accommodate the Zeiss 50mm, f/0.7 lens. (Right) The specially machined aperture plate in position in the specially machined camera body housing, both designed to accommodate the modified super-fast lens. Kubrick refused to settle for a standard high-speed lens and the addition of artificial light because he wanted to re-create the natural patina and mood of stately houses illuminated solely by candlelight, as they were during the period of the film’s story.”
