85mm size comparison between the new Sigma, Sony GM and my favorite Sony f/1.8

Share


via CameraSize

Here is the size comparison between the three 85mm FE lenses. In that case I have no doubt the smaller Sony f/1.8 FE lens is the best choice unless you really need that tiny faster aperture. The GM is the bokeh king while the Sigma is the sharper than the GM. But I think the Sigma is really way too big for my taste :)
I do own the 85mm f/1.8 and it’s super for my hiking trips (light and sharp). Get it!

Casey: “My name is Casey Cavanaugh and I run the YouTube channel, GxAce. I have just uploaded a short film that was shot entirely through the viewfinder of a Hasselblad 500cm with the Sony A7sI.  I thought it might be something that your readers would find interesting as it shows just how good the original A7s can be even now.  It was shot using the Atomos Shogun for the 4k as well.
I would love for you to take a look if you have the time.  It’s a little over 3 minutes.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNeGkjaGtY8“

A fake A6700 spec list is going around the web

Share

I got this image last week but I didn’t post it because I know with 100% certainty this is fake. But some sites posted exactly theses specs and readers asked my opinion on this. So here is my opinion: It is fake as you can see from the image showing the FF sensor inside the body. Moreover I know the source of this image and I know it has a long history of sharing such fake spec lists.

–

The only 80% reliable info I got so far is that the new APS-C High End camera will be Sony’s next announcement (and before the A7sIII). And it will have the EVF in the center and NOT be the A6500 successor but a new kind of model. It’s unclear when it will be announced although one single and usually reliable source told me he heard Sony has one more announcement before Christmas. But I got no other confirmation to back this up and it might be that this one source may be mislead by Sony…
