Hi there /p/, its not often I come to you for advice, so I hope you'll spare the time to help a fellow pro out.Today I purchased a TONY K1-D Single Lens Reflex camera. As shown in the attached photo, it currently has a kit 50mm f/1.4 TONY Prime.Although this lens is excellent, and definitely gives Canon/Nikon and run for their money - I'm more interested in shooting Sporting events, such as Egg & Spoon races for a Local Newspaper.What are my options for a TELEPHOTO Lens, that come with the TONY L mount?EXIF data available.

STUPID. It's a TOMY camera, try that in your google search. There is tons of very nice old glass for that thing.
Leica makes a Tri-Elmar 21/24/28 in TOMY L mount that's worth taking a look at, if you don't mind the f/4 maximum aperture.
>>186986so you also cant read. just stop posting, martin.
Quick search on TOMYs website produced a wide range of glass to suit your spec.100-300mm f/2.8 TOMY L APS - £182.99
>>187011I highly recommend this lens. Sharp as a tack even wide open at all focal lengths.
>>186998Shut up brandfag. TONY, TOMY what's the difference? It's like Nee-kon, Ny-kon.
>>187059Except that Nee-cone is the actual, correct pronunciation...
>>187059one is about how you spell it, when its RIGHT IN THE PICTURE. the other is how pronunciation changes when a name goes to different countries.
>>187063If I heard someone say "NEE-CONE" instead of "NY-CON" I would punch them in the dick.
>>187074Then stay away from Japan.
>>187074if i hear another pompus american faggot say "Ny-Con" instead of pronouncing it "nih-con" I'll rattle them round the side of the head with a zenit.
>>187084roflsorry but it's nigh-con in americaif you want to complain you can go to war and get crushed
>>187087I'm American and I say knee-con. Suck it.
Be a little more weaboo, ignorant fuckers. It's a japanese company and its name is pronounced Nee-con. Not ny-con or nee-cone, although the latter is closer to the right pronounciation. ITS NEE-CON, LEARN YOUR GOD'S NAME, NEECONFAGS
>>187090then you're wrong
>>187092it's nee-kon everywhere else in the worldin north america, it's nigh-kon
then let's fucking start calling Sony SOE-NEYE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOsDFBgFiQssearch for any Nikon commercial online, it's>> NIGH KONin fucking north america, got it fuckers?
>>187094Sony; you flip it twice, slice it once and what do you get? ANUS.
Okay, and cause this is the UK, Imma call you Wanker, cause it's the fucking UK, got it?
>>187111lool butthurt
I've heard the correct way given as "knee-con" and "knee-cone." Which is it?
>>187121knee-con
"ni" as in "nit" and then "kon" as in "converter".
>>187121holy shit>> NIGH KON in WESTERN HEMISPHERE>> NEE KON IN EASTERN HEMISPHERE
AMERICA ÜBER ALLES!!!!!
>>187129>> NIGH KON in WESTERN HEMISPHERE>> NEE KON IN EASTERN HEMISPHEREthe US is not a hemisphere, everyone south and north of your borders call it Nee Kon.
in japanese its actually knee-cone but the second n is more in the back of the throat, not like how americans say it. the o is a long o sound.
>>187133As we've been saying, knee-kon, not kone
>>187121>>187126>>187123>>187090>>187092>>187084>>187063Hey mother fuckers, why the hell would they pronounce it "nigh-con" in the commercials if that wasn't the correct pronunciation?There are only two rational explanations1. It's fucking nigh-con2. The correct pronunciation is different in separate parts of the world.
>>187131those same ads run in canada and the dubbed versions in spanish say nighkon you goddamn retard
for the 3945848393 time>> NIGH KON in WESTERN HEMISPHERE>> NEE KON IN EASTERN HEMISPHERE
>>187134but con/kon doesnt tell people that its a long o sound unless you specifically tell them so. that would be pronounced with a short o sound.
>>187136Fuck your ads, people who know better know better.
>>187136bastardizing americans gg
>>187126I hear it said that way in the UK all the time.

>>187169If you're gonna be weaboo about it, at least use the write syllabary??? ni-ko-n.
>>187179If you're going to type in English, at least use proper spelling and grammar.
This thread needs a big fat SAGE.
>>187181rofl, get it? fat sage
>>187105Sonyfag PS3SUX
>>187189wheres butterboy?
>>187251\o been thinking about posting myITS FOR THE PROsbecause that demolishes this TOMY crap...
>>187179Nikon - the original name was Nippon Kogaku, meaning "Japanese Optical".if it's japanese word than there is no reason to use katakanayou failed at weeabooing
>>187272you've failed at sage
kay-none?
ITT WE ARE SO FUCKING PROUD OF OUR LANGUAGE WE BASTARDIZE THE NAMES OF THE THINGS WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE THE NAME OF
>>187345I love you for saying the truth.
>>187345you fucking retardsnikon has been established in NA for decadesyou think if they really wanted us to neekon they would have made it so since the beginingfucking retards
>>187406They don't care so long as we buy Nikon (nee-con) products. Probably people mispronounced it and they figured brand recognition under a mispronunciation was better than trying to educate everyone in switching from "nye-con" to "nee-con."
I say Nigh-kon but I also say Nee-kkor.
This whole thread is retarded.No wonder Martin started it.
>>187087lol, like you guys crushed the iraqi's ;Dalso, its can-non...get it right FFS
You guys still going over this Nikon thing? I just posted it as a joke.
