Jean: “Is this where people share sony related links with you? If so, here’s a little video I shot day after I got my RX100m4. Really enjoy this camera. All shot on RX100m4 in HFR 250fps and 4K 24fps. P.S. Youtube compression really kills the image quality in high motion areas (water…) Original is MUCH better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zXvpqF-mj4”

LOL! Destiny is making fun on the people who is patiently waiting since May(!) to get their Batis lens. For a couple of hours BHphoto changed the expected availability date to 2099! (Spotted at Reddit).
Fun aside there is some small good news to report. Early preorders from BHphoto and Adorama shipped last week according to multiple SAR readers. And there is one single lens in Stock now at [shoplink 40770 ebay]eBay US[/shoplink]. and at [shoplink 40769 ebay]eBay Germany[/shoplink].

Diglloyd tested the 85mm Batis and writes:

It’s really wonderful to have such quality in a small and light kit. The design choice of f/1.8 is absolutely fine (I would even have preferred f/2, just to nudge up the quality slightly and nudge down the size). Particularly for this type of shooting, I’ll take f/1.8 any day over the bulk and weight of f/1.4.

If you want to suck out all the dust inside your camera than you really have to buy the new Fujin Mark II! The cleaner looks like a lens and comes in Canon EF or Nikon F-mount which you can easily use on a Sony via any adapter. You can buy it on eBay [shoplink 40741 ebay]here (eBay Alex-Tokyo)[/shoplink], [shoplink 40743 ebay]here (eBay Alex-Tokyo)[/shoplink] and [shoplink 40744 ebay]here (eBay Alex-Tokyo Nikon version)[/shoplink]. And the Nikon mount version on Amazon (Click here).

PetaPixel epxlains how it works:

Inside the Fujin is a high-speed electric fan that produces 2.7 times more airflow than the first generation Fujin lens vacuum, changing the air inside your camera 6 times every second.There are special electrostatic filters that are designed to be inserted in the front of the lens. These attract the dust, dirt, and sand particles as they flow out of the camera chamber.

The Lens-vacuum-cleaner is powered by simple AAA batteries and there is a simple on off button on the lens to activate it. There are four videos posted by Fujin on Youtube to see how it works. More pictures below.

Order options:
Fujin mark II cleaner on eBay [shoplink 40741 ebay]Canon mount at Alex-Tokyo)[/shoplink], [shoplink 40743 ebay]Canon mount at[/shoplink] and [shoplink 40744 ebay]Nikon mount at Alex-Tokyo[/shoplink]. Nikon mount version on Amazon (Click here).

Alex: “I just received my ​Di700A+Air1 kit this saturday. 20 minutes in to the session, the hot shoe broke. The fitting with the provided bracket is loose and, the woble of the flash with a diffuser and on a tripod was enough to break it. I was very disappointed with the plastic hotshoe and its weak design. I even went to check my i40 and for my surprise, the hotshoe was also plastic although the website describes a metal hotshoe as a key feature. ​Here you can see the pictures: http://www.marchetti.fot.br/clientes/nissin/​
The plastic hotshoe is too weak for such a big unit, specially considering that it was conceived to be used of camera.
I hope they provide me with a hot shoe piece to replace it. So far my emails came back. The hk email address does not exist an the japan email address returned the email with the photo attached. I big deception and awful begining to Nissin´s so expected flash line :-/”

Cineasy sent me that press text for their new Video Button Enhancement product for the new Sony A7rII, As7II and A7II cameras. You can buy the button on eBay in [shoplink 40657 ebay]Black color (Click here)[/shoplink] or [shoplink 40658 ebay]Red color (Click here)[/shoplink].

PRESS TEXT:

We now have new models for the Sony A7SII/A7RII/A7II Cameras. We have two colors for this new model, Red & Black. It also has a more sleek, stylish design.

The Sony A7S is one of the best video cameras in the market. The Sony A6000 is one of the best selling crop sensor cameras in the market. The new line of A7SII/RII models promise even better video quality and more features. But all of these cameras have a challenge when using the video feature. The video record button is too small, awkwardly placed and slightly recessed. This makes it very difficult to activate without much fumbling around. You usually have to remove your eyes from the viewfinder to even locate the button. All this searching and fumbling around can cause shaky footage or missing the action all together.
Cineasy have come up with a low cost solution called the Cineasy Touch Button Enhancement. The Cineasy Touch installs in just minutes and offers a much more intuitive and responsive experience. It provides a larger point of contact which can easily be found without removing your eye from the view finder. It simply attaches to the neck strap eyelet nearest the video button with the included screw. The nylon resin material is resistant to vibration which minimizes the risk of bumping and accidentally engaging the video button.

Current models for the A7S, A7R, A7, A7SII, A7RII, A7II and A6000 can be purchased directly from http://www.cineasytouch.com or on [shoplink 40657 ebay]Ebay (search for cineasy touch)[/shoplink]. For more info please watch the video at: https://vimeo.com/128038653.
