Cineasy sent me that press text for their new Video Button Enhancement product for the new Sony A7rII, As7II and A7II cameras. You can buy the button on eBay in [shoplink 40657 ebay]Black color (Click here)[/shoplink] or [shoplink 40658 ebay]Red color (Click here)[/shoplink].

PRESS TEXT:

We now have new models for the Sony A7SII/A7RII/A7II Cameras. We have two colors for this new model, Red & Black. It also has a more sleek, stylish design.

The Sony A7S is one of the best video cameras in the market. The Sony A6000 is one of the best selling crop sensor cameras in the market. The new line of A7SII/RII models promise even better video quality and more features. But all of these cameras have a challenge when using the video feature. The video record button is too small, awkwardly placed and slightly recessed. This makes it very difficult to activate without much fumbling around. You usually have to remove your eyes from the viewfinder to even locate the button. All this searching and fumbling around can cause shaky footage or missing the action all together.
Cineasy have come up with a low cost solution called the Cineasy Touch Button Enhancement. The Cineasy Touch installs in just minutes and offers a much more intuitive and responsive experience. It provides a larger point of contact which can easily be found without removing your eye from the view finder. It simply attaches to the neck strap eyelet nearest the video button with the included screw. The nylon resin material is resistant to vibration which minimizes the risk of bumping and accidentally engaging the video button.

Current models for the A7S, A7R, A7, A7SII, A7RII, A7II and A6000 can be purchased directly from http://www.cineasytouch.com or on [shoplink 40657 ebay]Ebay (search for cineasy touch)[/shoplink]. For more info please watch the video at: https://vimeo.com/128038653.

Chris (video on top): “OFF THE BEATEN TRACK – Episode 2 – The land of the Maasai.
I’m very excited to launch the second episode of OFF THE BEATEN TRACK. In this second episode we travelled to the Masai Mara to find out how Kenyans were protecting their natural environment. Watch it in fullscreen with Headphones if you can. Hope you’ll enjoy it and share it around!

Sony just released the new 1.10 firmware update for the Sony A7rII. You can download it here
Windows: sony.com.sg/support/download/607881/product/ilce-7rm2.
Mac: sony.com.sg/support/download/607899/product/ilce-7rm2

But don’t be too excited yet as the promised 14 Bit RAW feature has yet NOT been included in that version: The benefits of this update are:

1. Improved a symptom to rarely become front focus depend on shooting scene.
2. Decreased chroma noise when long exposure NR is set off.
3. Improved Hi continuous shooting speed when using with the flash.

P.S.: Thanks Idros for sharing!

This morning Samyang (named Rokinon in US and Wallimes in EU) announced two new APS-C E-mount lenses. But I just learned through their site that there are actually Cine and Non Cine versions of each lens. And the very first 21mm f/1.4 image samples can be seen at the spanish DSLRmagazine site (shot on X-mount version). For now only the “non-cine” versions can be preordered at BH or Amazon:

Samyang press text:

This is a good day for APS-C E-mount camera owners. We just got two new lenses from Samyang (Rokinon). The 50mm f/1.2 and 21mm f/1.4! Both are manual focusing lenses and I have o doubt they will be of very good optical quality (as usual with Rokinon). Here are the full specs of the lenses and preorder links to BHphoto:
