Because of high demand, we anticipate being unable to fulfill all customer orders with our first allocation. Product supply from Sony is very limited. Your place in line will be maintained and your credit card will not be charged until the product is shipped.

I got word from store owners that Sony will ship them a new Stock starting from mid-late September.

Twan: “I have a request for A7RII owners with a 85mm G-Master lens. I have a very strange issue. I have a a7Rii and when i put de 85mm G-Master on my camera, with camera off but battery in the camera, it will NOT autofocus on a subject beyond 30 feet AND I am not able to MANUAL focus beyond 30 feet, belive it or not…
This is fixed by removing the battery from the camera and put it back in, then the lens on the camera does autofocus and manual focus to infinity again.
Can someone check if he/she has the same problem so I know I need to take the lens in for repairs.
