@Make shipped out of China with DHL, not sure what you are talking about

I wanted to buy a chink fish-eye but they're so expensive and I am not brave enough to invest the money blindly

@Tribit DHL express charges 20€ for doing import custom duties for you and if you want to do them by yourself it's 40€

It's been the autistic way of measuring a lens in image quality for many many decades.
I only have one lens that manages it, and it's not a wide angle.

Dhl are top tier jews

just live in america

In finland they will do customs with very shady text message

Buy a used Samyang (Rokinon) fisheye with Nikon mount instead

And make u pay extra

then I need a Nikon -> NEX adapter?

Yes

but they're also 100 bucks +

You can do it yourself but it will still cost extra

Here if you order outside EU it is strongly adviced not to use DHL so I just said you should check for your own country also

Also since I bought that camera, I'm taking photos of everything, so I will probably buy a better camera soon anyway since it's starting to become a nice timesink. Not sure if I want to invest big amounts in sony E platform

But it doesn't have any electronic transmission, so it doesn't matter if it's adapted though it being Nikon mount means you can sell it much easier when you realize that fisheye is a terrible meme

@fedora yeah it costs 40€ if you do it yourself and 20€ if dhl does it

Which camera did you buy?

A second-hand Alpha 5100

@Tribit when did you make your order? This is fairly new thing came out thi may

It was like 250$ with incl. lens

2 y/o

If you **truly** outgrow that in less than 2 years (excluding need for viewfinder), I'll send you my nex 7

@Make April and this fairly new thing still means fuck all @Shrimpf bought his phone two weeks ago and got it last week

"DHL From China $ 17.00 It takes around 3-6 days to get the parcel after the order is shipped out."

I didn't mean "soon" to buy a new one

but let's just take those two years: If I'm going to drop the platform in 2 years, why would I invest high amounts in additional accessories?

@Tribit Not in every EU country yet maybe but you can read it here through google translate: https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=fi&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=fi&ie=UTF-8&u=https%3A%2F%2Fyle.fi%2Faihe%2Fartikkeli%2F2016%2F04%2F12%2Fmiksi-dhln-viestissa-ei-kerrota-etta-asiakas-voi-tehda-tullauksen-itse-maksutta&edit-text=&act=url

" Following the above interview, several King's viewers / readers were contacted by email, email, and comments below.

The viewers reported that making the customs clearance itself will soon be no longer free of charge: it will pay 40 euros from May.

Yes, you read correctly, self-service costs 40 euros and DHL's customs clearance is about half less.

DHL calls the fee as a "delivery service fee" and says it is common in the express courier sector. No payment can be avoided: "

@Tribit fedora can also confirm this

@porco since we're no longer on the topic or chink lenses let's take it to <#189467888657235970>

sure

What a shit article kek

"I got custom fees once and DHL increased the pricing of custom fees" that must mean every package must be hit with custom fees <:thonk:288060975775612929>

no

I had no fees whatsoever

DHL automatically does it for all packages

Came in fast as fuck

you need to pay 20€ for it and 40€ if you want to do it for yourself

Nope
