Here we have two new video tests from Sony Artisans Patrick Murphey Racey and Manny Ortiz

Sony A7RII vs Nikon D800 Portrait Shootout

Todd Vorenkamp tested the Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 G Master Lens at Monticello Motor Club:

The FE 100-400 is not a super-heavy lens; it is lighter than the Canon of the same focal length, but after an entire day of shooting and 8,000 images (thanks to the 20 fps performance of the a9), my arms were definitely feeling it.

Cory Rice tested the Sony FE 12-24mm f/4 G Lens in NYC:

On the streets of New York, the autofocus performed quietly and smoothly. The wide range of the lens allowed me to squeeze a considerable amount of space into the frame when shooting on cramped sidewalks. The tradeoff for this convenience was perspective distortion, especially pronounced when my model was human.

Shawn C. Steiner tested the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens in the Berry Fields:

The latest G Master lens is one of Sony’s best zooms, with practically no visible aberrations and with outstanding sharpness. That isn’t the only thing a lens needs though; it needs to feel good in the hand and be a pleasure to operate. Overall, the lens’s external design is very good. It matches up with existing GM optics, with its rubberized zoom and focus rings, as well as the physical focus hold and AF/MF switch on the side of the barrel. One thing that struck me was just how short the throw of the zoom ring is, which isn’t necessarily a problem, and probably only came up because of my experience with cinema-quality zooms.

Phillip Reeve is working on a very precise and in deep rolling review of the new .

“I am still in the process of learning to know the lens but I have performed most of my testing and it is safe to say that the Voigtlander 2/65 APO is one of the very best E-mount lenses on the market right now. Sharpness is exceptional, as is the degree of CA correction and build quality. Bokeh is very good in most but not all scenarios. The only average aspect of the Voigtlander is the flare resistance. All this makes it a great general purpose lens, I would see it less as a dedicated macro lens. So far I think it is well worth the price and weight.”

The lens is now in Stock at BHphoto, Amazon and Adorama. In Europe at Photo-Porst-Neuwied
