Description
Samyang USB Lens Station for Sony E mount. This allows you to update the firmware of your lens, change the manual focus speed/sensitivity and for more advanced users, make adjustments to the autofocus. Unless you know what you are doing I would avoid that one! The main use is for the firmware upgrade, which can make a significant improvement to the auto focus speed and accuracy if your lens has older firmware on it. Samyang have done a great job of addressing some of the minor niggles with their lenses, but unless you update the firmware you can't take advantage of these improvements. It's difficult to justify the purchase of the dock for a minute or two of usage to do the firmware, which is why I thought I would buy one and rent it out to recoup my costs and help others who don't want to buy one for a single use either! Works with the following Sony E Mount Lenses. AF 14mm F2.8 FE AF 18mm F2.8 FE AF 24mm F1.8 FE AF 24mm F2.8 FE AF 24-70 F2.8 FE AF 35mm F1.4 FE AF 35mm F1.8 FE AF 35mm F2.8 FE AF 45mm F1.8 FE AF 50mm F1.4 FE AF 50mm F1.4 FE MK2 AF 75mm F1.8 FE AF 85mm F1.4 FE Check if you need the firmware before borrowing this, the firmware of the lens will be visible from the menus on your Sony camera or on the EXIF info of your images. Included is the Lens Station, a usb cable and a small hard case to keep them safe in the post. The daily rental price is for local rental where shipping is not needed. The weekly rental price includes postage to you (UK only), however you will need to pay the shipping back to me. This will cost £4 for second class recorded delivery with Royal Mail. You can ship it however you want, but it must be tracked and have insurance to cover it's cost (which second class recorded does). Thanks Dave

Dave was an absolute gem helping me out, even downloaded the firmware for me and did the update while I waited in my car, what a gentleman.
