Sony 50mm F/1.8 review at Enthusiastphotoblog.
I wasn’t suppose to share this but since they announced it anyway (just in time for NAB), you’ve got to check out this new ground-breaking camera from Sony – the A8s!!! It’s got almost 100MP and shoots 10k (YES 10K) video and 12k photos. It’s basically a medium format mirrorless photo/video camera. It’s ridiculously pricey but I think the stats speak for themselves. I got a chance to test it out a month ago and the camera is a DREAM. I think they’re taking pre-orders now, so if you want to get it, get it!!

The Sony A9 is the first camera aiming to win over professional Canon/Nikon photographers. Photogearnews shared a short interview with one of the Canon pro’s that made the big switch:
We spoke to wildlife photographer and cameraman, Luke Massey, about his camera kit, his work and how he made the jump from shooting with a Canon EOS 1DX Mark II to the Sony A9.

Philip: “I recently bought a little light for hiking with, a Zebralight H600Fd Mk IV. I think I remember you saying you hike too, so check it out. It looks great. I’ll write a review at some point, but upon trying out certain things I noticed a really weird finding! Adobe Lightroom, when you measure a grey card, gives a COMPLETELY different reading to Phase One Capture One software. http://photochirp.com/2018/02/20/lightroom-capture-one-white-balance-zebralight-h600fd-mk-iv/ I wrote about it here a bit. The post is a bit of a mess, and I’m just throwing ideas around at the moment, but if you scroll down you’ll see a photograph where it shows the different colour temperatures. Do you have both programs installed, and did you know this? I also tried shooting JPGs and comparing photographs, and Phase One Capture One matches the camera’s colours the best. I prefer the menus of lightroom so I’m not trying to push capture one as a program to use, but I just wondered if you had similar results? I don’t know if it does this with Canon cameras too, but adobe’s colours are way off.”
