Hi Bill,
Keep in mind that Sony has two Alpha lens to NEX adapters of their own which both work in auto focus. Version #1 is very slow but works. In the Sony Alpha lens line for the APS-C and full frame DSLR cameras Sony has 30mm, 50mm and 100mm macro lenses all of which are F/2.8 lenses. All of these lenses are highly rated and Nauticam already has a port and gear combo for the 30mm macro with adapter. I would expect that requests for a 100 macro port and gear for NEX with adapter have looked at by now.
Adapters for a number of DSLR and SLR lens brands are made for NEXhem. and I would not expect to see ports and gears for many of them.
A much smaller style 8mm fisheye which is all manual for NEX was announced for March from Samyang/Rokinon. This same lens style is made in 7.5 for M43 cameras now and gets very good reviews. Problem is that it would need both focus and aperture gears for full control.
