Emin Kuliyev created this funny solution to avoid 8k overheating with the Sony A1

Share

Emin sent me those images with the following text:

I’m Photographer from New York https://www.facebook.com/emin.kuliyev.54/
I just mount a Portable Handheld 14$ Fan by rubber pieces
and keep the temperature on Sony A1 cold till my camera battery died (I shoot 8K)
it was a little bit warm on the bottom but colder than usual (without the fan and without shooting 8K)

Not a beautiful solution…but it works :)

In a second message he told me this:

I have updated yesterday and increase shooting time from 30 min (4K120) (this is a maximum (as dpreview report) to shoot 77min (i have added a second fan and use a flash bracket to hold it)
I know nobody will shoot continuously 77 min (maybe some interview) 
but this 77 min allows me to shoot almost all day long with small breaks (I’m improve shooting time 2.5 times) for 25$
4K120 mode will burn your fully charged battery for 30 min of shooting that’s why i use a power bank to charge my battery

Tokina new products road map 2021-2022: Updated

Jul 2, 2021

Dear customers. Thank you all for supporting Tokina brand.

Kenko Tokina Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan) has released the updated version of the Tokina new products road map 2021-2022. Facing unstable global supply of the materials and electronic components Tokina continues developing new products to respond to the growing market demands. The release features detailed product line-up for 2021 with updated release dates followed by extensive 3 years road map.

Since the last update in June 2020 Tokina released atx-i 11-20mm F2.8 CF wide angle zoom lens, completely new prime lenses atx-m 23mm F1.4 X and atx-m 33mm F1.4 X for Fujifilm X-mount and SZX SUPER TELE 400mm F8 Reflex MF mirror lens for 7 mount systems.

In 2021 Tokina plans to release 6 prime lenses for Sony-E Mount (APS-C) and Fujifilm-X mount. Also new SUPER TELE 500mm F8 Reflex MF mirror lens with universal mount system will be released in winter 2021.

For 2022, Tokina is developing more wide angle prime and wide angle zoom lenses.

We are doing our best to introduce our new products to the market as soon as possible and hope you will find your favorite among them. Thank you for your patience.

Notes: The release schedule is tentative. Product design may be changed without preliminary notification.

I hope this A7rV image will become true in 2022 :)

Share

One day this image might become true! A new A7rV is expected to be released in 2022. And we know Sony officially listed a new 102MP FF sensor. I know 99% of you don’t need 102MP images. But I like the idea that you have a big freedom in cropping. On my mountain trips I can take my 50mm FE lens and still crop a 100mm or 200mm image with decent resolution!
