Shopper conversation with Joao M. on July 04, 2016

Joao M.
Hi! i'm Joao, how are you?
Any questions on the Canon lens bundle?
What size case do I need for the canon 85mm lens?
Joao M.
let me find you a few options
this lens is only 3" by 2.8"
so a bag or pouch would be fine
like this one, for example:
what size pouch? I saw Adorama have their own lens pouches. What size pouch would be the one?
Joao M.
this one is (4.9" long/3.75"diameter)
it'd be perfect
If I want the lens case which one would be the right one?
Joao M.
that Ape Case you're looking at would work great
the other cases may be a little big for that lens
What about the Adorama Slinger cases?
Joao M.
let me check
one like this one
Also, I would like a case for the Canon 1.4
and for the canon 1.8
Joao M.
ok
I would like a hard case not a soft case. Like the Adorama slinger for both the 85mm and the 50mm
Joao M.
oh alright
or the ape case you sent me a link to.
Joao M.
the Ape Case would be the best option
the slingers are soft too
the Ape Cases are hard
or did you mean an Adorama case like this one?
yeah. I meant like these. Which would be better for the 85mm and the 50mm the slinger or the ape?
Joao M.
They are both made of the same materials, so both would do the same job really
I see. Are they the same size?
Joao M.
but the Adorama Slinger is a bit cheaper
yes, same size
both hold a lens up to 6"
Also, I want to buy a clear B+W filter for the 85mm lens and also a lens cap for the filter. Which ones would you recommend?
What is the difference between :
Joao M.
let me find you a good b&w filter for that lens
that one is the better one
it has a protective coating
Water will bead up faster
coating also has certain anti-reflective properties that help prevent against ghosting & internal flaring
are you there?
yes
Joao M.
the coating also makes it easier to clean the filter
This one is slimmer than the other one so my question is what cap can I put on it?
Since it's so slim which cap will work for it?
Joao M.
right, it is slimmer
let me find you a cap for it
this one would work
Thanks.
Joao M.
you're welcome!
Did you want to order those today?
Yes. I just finished adding it all to my cart.
Joao M.
ok great! you can go ahead and check out, stay with me on the chat please and let me know when the order is complete?
I just wanna make sure there are no issues with the ordering
one moment
Joao M.
ok
Sony 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS E-Mount NEX Camera Lens, Black
I would like a lens case for this one as well. Which case would I need
Joao M.
alright
let me look one up
and also for Sony 50mm and sony 16mm
Joao M.
ok
looks like that same Adorama Slinger case would fit those lenses as well
The small one?
Joao M.
yes
What about the larger Sony 55-210?
Joao M.
the one that can fit up to 6"
So the small one would also work for it?
Joao M.
do you have a link for that specific Sony 55-210?
if it is, then yes that same 6" Case would work
SKU: ISO55210EB MFR: SEL55210/B
Joao M.
got it thanks
Joao M.
that one's dimensions are 2.5 x 2.3"
so yea, the same small 6" case would be fine
Great. I'm ordering now.
Joao M.
awesome!
let me know when the order is complete please :-)

Joao M.
