It remains a pretty good lens. However, the AF performance is unusable.

Thanks for the review. That lens seems like a good value.
Did you try the adapter with SSM lenses?
Do you think that the automatic aperture is worth having the adapter?

There's not real value-add on the NEX-5 I think. The display does basically provide a depth-of-field preview but without the viewfinder darkening present in DSLRs.
The AF behavior is much better with the 30/2.8 and 18-55/3.5-5.6 (Alpha) - but it's still not great. I didn't test the 70-300 SSM.
