Zeiss removed all camera teasers

Share

Zeiss removed their two camera teased from their official Weixin account. I repeat that this is the OFFICIAL Zeiss account so it’s quite strange they are doing that.

I hope this camera doesn’t “disappear” like their 40mmf /2.0 Batis leaked we leaked nearly 2 months ago!

Portraits with the Sony 400mm 2.8 GM | Breakdown with Miguel Quiles

Share

400mm f/2.8 FE preorder at BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet.de and ParkCamera.

Miguel Quiles did use the new Sony 400mm 2.8 GM lens to shoot portraits. At Petapixel he reported the results of the test:

“Whether I was shooting from really far away to be able to get full-body shots or I was shooting up close to get those tight portraits, the focus was rock solid.
If you are a working professional photographer and you want to have portraits that look different than the lion’s share of the competition that’s out there, I’m going to consider getting something like the 400mm f/2.8 G Master lens,”
