Sigma releases new firmware 1.01 for the MC-11 adapter

Share

SigmaMC11

Sigma released a new 1.01 firmware update for the MC-11 autofocus adpater. You can download it here: sigma-global.com/download/en/information.html. Those are the improvements:

It has improved the following phenomenon that occurs when lenses that are not compatible with the MC-11 are attached and no light is emitted on the MC-11’s LED lamp.
● It does not operate properly on continuous shooting mode.
● In the case of some lenses that incorporate an OS function, when the camera’s power is turned off, it does not respond to any operation for a certain period of time.
● When open aperture is not selected for shooting, the aperture does not return to fully open.
※ Improvements may not be visible with some products.
※ The phenomenon that the diaphragm closes when the camera’s power is turned off is due to the characteristic of the camera and is considered to specification.

Thanks MWB!

The MC-11 can be bought at Amazon US, BHphoto, Amazon DE and Wex UK.

Meyer Optik Goerlitz will launch a third E-mount Trioplan lens in 2017

Share

Trioplan

It’s quite impressive and unexpected to see that Meyer Optik raised over $600.000 !!!!!!!!! on Kickstarter to finance their latest 50mm f/2.9 Trioplan lens development. The campagn was that successfull that they updated their rewards list by adding a third new Trioplan lens:

Restoring the Trioplan lens line means that all good things come in threes. Our major 2017 lens announcement will be the third and final Trioplan in our line-up.

The lens is surely to come with native E-mount too.

Sony A68 US gets an over two month shipment delay! New product release roadmap delayed too because of the Kumamoto damage?

Share

A68

Yesterday many US stores suddenly changed the Sony A68 shipping date from May 19 to August 4 (See at Amazon and BHphoto). A source told me that this is due the Kumamoto sensor production stop. Because of that Sony had to postpone the A68 launch by two and a half months. He said the full camera release and shipment roadmap has been overhauled with some of the future new products that will be launched later than expected.

The past years Sony regularly announced new products in June. But at that stage I don’t know if the some or all of the announcements will be delayed….
