Off the top of the head, there are these: (1) Full Frame E-Mount FE PZ 28-135mm F4 G OSS LensModel: SELP28135G (2) Full Frame E-Mount FE ...

Bear in mind that a chunk of the price difference above (probably about half) would be attributable to tbe difference between Australian GST (10%) and Romanian VAT (which I believe is 19%).

Thanks for the heads up, Brian. It does beg the question as to whether any other Sony OSS lenses will also require (or benefit from) a firmware update to work with the a7Rv. If so, this may just be ...

Yes. The other relatively recent models that doesn't have the Mode lock button is the a7C. Whereas both the a9 and a9ii do have it. I don't think Sony have ever offered an official explanation (if ...

The lock button on the Mode dial is not new. The a7Riii, which was released five years ago, has it. The a7Riv and a1 have it. So do various other models. It's notably absent from the a7iii and a7iv ...

Yes, absolutely. That depends on how you set up the camera WRT what is being written to which card. If you set it up to write simultaneously to both cards then yes, the buffer clearing speed will ...

A lot depends on how you work. Besides which, the adequacy of screen resolution is somewhat subjective. What works for one person may be a deal-breaker for another. That said, I used an a7iii as my ...

It's also worth noting that the Sony FE 70-200 f2.8 GM II is 7.87 inches and 37 ounces --- so quite a bit lighter than the Nikon. The Sony is also nicely balanced (not to forward heavy). When you ...

You may have simply misspoken in the above statement, so perhaps it goes without saying:-  you need to zoom in with the lens zoom ring, not with the lens focus ring.

Lossless RAW will give you smaller file sizes and will avoid the possible (but rare) compression artifacts that sometimes appear in lossy compressed RAW files. When the artifacts appear in lossy ...

While the tech could be adapted, it appears that the aspect ratio of the sensor described above, despite being described as "full frame" is optimized for 16:9 images.

If used in a stills...

Me too. It's how I've worked for many years in all sorts of situations (including desert, snow, seashore and more) --- many times it's too windy, dusty or moist to be changing lenses frequently ...

Andrea from SAR is creating drama from nothing --- which, in itself, is nothing new. His core mission is not to inform (as such) but to drive clicks. Period. All the same (equally baseless, ...

I don't think Sony has "changed direction" as such. Quite the contrary. They appear to be pursuing their vision with a vengeance while broadening the scope of their offerings as their market ...

From the OP: Maybe you should take your own advice about reading it. Charming. Thanks for that. FYI, if you are entitled to express your "educated" opinions, others are equally entitled to express ...

You mention landscape, portraits and wildlife, which generally don't have a great deal of overlap in relation to lens choices. Landscape is typically on the wide FL end and shot stopped down for ...

Not really. Wildlife shots in most situations call for telephoto focal lengths well beyond 105mm. Some types of landscape shots call for FOV a fair bit wider than 24mm. Few serious portrait ...

I don't see anyone telling you that "resolution doesn't count". What people are telling you is that resolution isn't THE ONLY THING that counts. Big difference. So big, and so obvious that it is ...

Yes - it's hard to see how a 24.2MP camera could be characterised as "overtaking" a 33MP camera, notwithstanding a marginal/incremental edge in some of its other specs. Lots of things (burst rates ...

Only if you define IQ as resolution in MP, without regard to focus accuracy, motion blur, DR or any other attributes that may impact the actual result. We don't yet know whether the a7Rv will offer ...
