We got two big news: First, Chris and Jordan left TheCameraStore to work for Dpreview (Full article here). Second, their first review for Dpreview is for the new Sony A7III:
Sony A7III in USA at Adorama, BHphoto, Amazon, BestBuy, FocusCamera, BuyDig.
Sony a7III in Europe at Amazon DE, Calumet Germany, Amazon UK, ParkCameras UK, WexUK, Amazon FR, Amazon IT, Amazon ES.
Since yesterday the new Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 FE lens can be preordered here:
In the US at BHphoto, BuyDig and Adorama for $799.
in the EU at WexUK, Fotokoch for 829 Euro or 699 pounds.
CameraSize added the new Tamron 28-75mm FE lens on their size comparison database. As you can see the 28-75mm is much more compact than the GM lens. But the trade off is you loose 4mm at the wide end.
The new Tamron lens has the potential to be a hotseller. So let’s see how many of our readers will actually buy it:
