Dpreview review of the Sony ZV-1 Mark II: “a vlogging camera with excellent video that thrives in auto modes”

Share

Dpreview tested the Sony ZV-1 Mark II and concluded

The video-centric Sony ZV-1 Mark II has excellent rolling shutter, industry-leading autofocus and a very nice selfie-friendly zoom lens, but runs into issues with short battery life and flat out-of-camera audio. The camera thrives in auto modes, making it best suited for users seeking a simple-to-use camera.

LEAKED! Lightweight Sigma 500mm f/5.6 E-mount lens will be announced on February 21

Share

The image on top show the new 500mm f/5.6 Full Frame E-mount lens that will be announced on February 21. The additional info I got says:

  • lightweight lens
  • very fast AF on Sony A1
  • very low chromatic aberration
  • Coming for Sony E and Leica L mount cameras

I am working to get info about the price that surely will be MUCH lower of that of the expensive Sony 400mm GM (Click here) and Sony 600mm GM (Click here). And my guess it’s that will cost $1,500-$2000 less than the current Sigma 500mm f/4.0 for Canon/Nikon.
