Jim explains why we need a larger Sony E-mount camera

SAR reader Jim sent me this image and text:

Hi Andrea, As a full time photographer, making my living from Sony cameras I am delighted with Sony’s recent strides forwards with the a9 and a7r mk3 cameras. But I can still only use them on a tripod. For hand held work that lasts any length of time I am stuck with the a99mk2.

So here is my dream Sony full frame camera.

I do not mind if it has the sensor and processor from the a9 or the a7rmk3, both are more good enough to make a living from. What is important is that the right hand grip is moved 5-7mm away from the lens mount so that larger hands may fit in the gap whilst using GM lenses….

Just my 10 cents worth. Best regards and keep up the stellar work, Jim

It’s not the first time we hear Sony owners complain about this. The grip of course helps a bit but folks with large hands still feel uncomfortable.
