    Sony Sigma MC-11 on A7

    Yes, it looks like A7 has pdaf, not like my A7r. Sigma has the compatibility list but there is no Canon lenses listed: https://www.sigma-global.com/en/support/download/SIGMA_MC_11_lens_en.pdf https://www.sigma-global.com/en/support/download/SIGMA_MC-11_camera_en.pdf This post says same...

    Sony Sigma MC-11 on A7

    Yes, there is no phase detection on the original A7/A7R/A7S so it is af by contrast. I remember cheaper Canon 70-300mm was ok to use but it depends on the lens. I tried the Canon lenses on Sigma FP/Leica SL2 also and the experience was similar. I used the Canon 135mm f2 in mf as the af was...

    GAS Considering a new system. Maybe Sony.

    I am using A7CR as my P&S with Minolta/Sony 24-105 3.5-4.5 lens+LA-EA5 adapter, not sharpest zoom, but smaller than 24-105 f4 FE lens. It fits in my winter jacket pocket. 28-60 is a small lens, but there is not much space btw the grip and the lens and it nearly tears my fingers when I open the...

    Manual Lens f1.2; Adapted vintage or New Tech?

    Nice comparison of fast 50mm m mount lenses: https://phillipreeve.net/blog/comparison-super-fast-50mm-m-mount-lenses/ I have the OM 55mm, nice size, but not the best 50/55mm. Bastian also reviewed the EF Canon 50mm 1.2 and was saying FD version might be better with its floating elements which...

    Compact Compact 1" 5-10x zooms

    The price of new models is the reason I have not upgraded from RX100 VI as prices increased with each generation but then newer RX10/100 are the only 1" camera with pdf. Initially it was maybe $300+ camera... My first RX100 lens mechanism broke down and the repair cost was close to getting used...

    Compact Compact 1" 5-10x zooms

    RX100 VII has the best af with pdf, followed by Panasonic, then Canon cameras. I like the reach of ZS100/200 esp in good light as the slow lens doesn't matter. One of the best IQ with reach was Canon G3X, but af was very slow and never got updated... G5X has the fastest lens, but again low...

    Sony Dear Sony...

    I understand it why you want the R3 update as a R3 owner. I guess I wasn't clear. Sony is pushing the A7R IV/V sensor tech which is used as Medium Format 100MP also, but the slow speed of sensor reading is causing rolling shutter problems with these cameras. As you say Sony could have updated...

    Sony Dear Sony...

    The readout speed of A7R IV is on the slow side if you are shooting e-shutter. I don't know A7RV changed that or not... I saw that also in other camera reviews eg Leica, Sigma FP that use the same 60MP sensor: How fast is the Sony a7RIV silent shutter? - the last word How fast is the Sony a7RIII...

    Manual Lens f1.2; Adapted vintage or New Tech?

    From my experience Chinese manufacturers are still lacking the coatings of Japanese/German lenses which is a good or a bad thing depending on your shooting. So they put them closer to the old lenses. However some of the new lenses have better performance on the digital sensors. Also...

    Leica Q3 - 60mp

    I love tilt screeens, hate the fixed ones... Finally Leica caught up with other camera sensors and pdaf but I guess the lens is too big to af quickly, similar to RX1R II. Overgaard have the review with other Leica camera photos.... I like Jono's review as he is the official Leica tester (he...
