1) Adam: “I thought you might like to see a personal short film I just finished that was shot on an NEX-5 using the Lensbaby Tilt Transformer and Nikon 50mm f/1.4.
I’ve uploaded it Vimeo and Youtube (I personally find the quality of video often looks better on Vimeo but many more people seem to visit Youtube)

A little bit of info on my site:

I’ll be adding more details to my site on the set-up I used in the coming weeks. Just got to find some time I guess… sigh.
Anyway… I hope you like it. Would love you get some feedback.” Editor’s note: you can see the embedded video on top!

I give 9/10 because of that beautiful girl. The music is annoying and the sequence of dressing up is too much detailed. Good luck with your next movie.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the music as well. But given the quality of movie I am super-impressed that it was shot on a NEX!
+1
I was impressed with the effectiveness of the lensbaby. Good job. I am leaning more and more toward getting one, having also just seen a live demo of one a couple of days ago.
Thanks for the feedback. I know the music is not everyone’s cup of tea…
The NEX has it’s limitations but if you work with them in mind you can get around them. Biggest issue I had was that there is not manual control over gain when shooting video. While it’s not a “pro” camera, Sony have done an impressive job with the NEX.
Onto the next project…
What is the song title and artist? Brilliant track and film btw!!!
Track is by Domanwitz, currently unreleased. More of his work here: http://www.soundcloud.com/domanwitz
Thanks for sharing!
Heh, it usually is spelled Tidbits. O
Great video!
In USA it is, not in the rest of the world.

Am I the only one who has noticed the headline saying Sony Titbits and not Sony Tidbits?
hehe, probably most of the visitors are thinking photography, not tits 🙂
June 22nd? do u know something we dont know?
how do you get the colours ? it looks sort of cross processed, nice.
@sgts – Film was graded using Apple Color.
I give the video 2 thumbs up, but the music gets 2 thumbs down. Overall I thought it was really good and the fact that it was recorded using the Nex 5 just shows the range this camera has.
Good morning everyone 🙂 8th May, 52days to go! a77
coz its correctly spelt titbits, cheers 4 info
great, great short..
if only we had manual contrls, nex would be there causing some big troubles to all canon competition..
Yes, Sony can compete with Canon and Panasonic only if Sony adds more manual controls like manual shutter speed in Movie Mode to both NEX and Alpha cameras.
Rad song(was expecting something bad because of the comments haha) and video!
Great video Adam. Demonstrates the nice capabilities of the NEX paired with a Lensbaby. Can’t wait to buy the lens and pair it with the A77!
I’d love the music by the way, amazing!
