Sandisk 128 GB sandisk cards not working when used in Slot 1 on Sony A7III and A7rIII cameras

Share

On Reddit A7III and A7rIII owners reported a major bug. The Sandisk 128GB card is not working when you use them on Slot Number 1. IThe problem only appears with the 128GB card version and only with Sandisk.

Hendrixj92 pointed out:

I contacted Sony. After a quick explanation of the issue, the rep found other reports of this happening. It appears to be a firmware issue with 128gb cards. They are working on it.

I am sure Sony will soon fix this via FW update.

Zeiss Batis 40mm f/2 CF Review at ePhotozine: “has the sparkle that gives that emotional element”

Share

ePhotozine posted their full Zeiss Batis 40mm f/2 CF Review:

Quality, lack of compromise and elegance of design. These are the things that characterise the new lens, one which I have found very exciting to use. It also does not fall into the trap of being clinically sharp without having that indefinable character. It manages to be crisp and clean in terms of its images, but they also have the sparkle that gives that emotional element. Sometimes this is referred to as “pixie dust”, the magical extra ingredient that makes great lenses.

Thus the new Zeiss Batis 40mm f/2 CF lens justifies its price tag and it has that extra quality that makes it an Editor’s Choice.

The new Zeiss Batis lens is available for preorder at Adorama and BHphoto.

New “Sky Enhancer” for Luminar is coming as a free update on November 1, 2018

Share

Skylum announced the release of the new Sky Enhancer feature (full announcement article here). It’s going to be released as a free Luminar update on November 1. If you plan to buy Luminar use our code “SAR” to get a $10 discount.

About AI Sky Enhancer:

This filter was created for photographers who would rather focus on creating photos, and have neither the time or inclination to spend hours correcting their images.

By moving a single slider you can add depth, definition, and detail to the sky without exposing unwanted artifacts or affecting any other aspect of the image.

No one wants boring skies in their photos, and restoring and improving the sky is one of the most important things while creating a masterpiece. We’ve done our best to make this process as simple as it can be –  the new AI Sky Enhancer creates no halos, automatically detects the edges of the sky and recognizes the sky even inside other objects such as bridges.

Offer Availability:

The new and advanced AI Sky Enhancer Filter is going to be added to Luminar on November 1, 2018 in advance of Luminar Libraries.

Pricing:

  • New users can purchase Luminar 2018 for $59 USD ($49 with “SAR” coupon code)

  • Current users of Luminar 2018 may update for free

  • Current users of Luminar 2017 may upgrade for $49 USD ($39 with “SAR” coupon code)
