Sony A7rV review by CameraLabs

Share

Sony A7rV store links:
In US at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FocusCamera, BeachCamera, Buydig.
In EU at Fotokoch, Amazon EU, FotoErhardt, Calumet DE, WexUK. ParkCameras UK.
In Australia at CameraPro, Camerahouse, Sony.

CameraLabs finalized his A7rV review and concluded:

By becoming more practical for long exposures, macro photography and pixel-shift composites, the R V broadens its appeal, while also giving you the flexibility of a tilt and flip screen, the joy of the most detailed viewfinder around, the bonus of 8k video and Sony’s most cunning AF system to date. I can definitely recommend it, but whether it’s worth the extra thousand? Only you can say.

First worldwide review of AstrHori 12mm F2.8

Share

SonyAlphaBlog reviewed the new lens and concluded:

The AstrHori 12mm F2.8 Fisheye (259$ / 349 euros) is a very good Full frame fisheye lens. Its is build like a tank , its ergonomic are very good (nice click aperture ring and well dampened focusing ring).

Its performance are very good overall with very good sharpness on the entire field as of F8, very good color rendition, nice background blur, very good resitance to flare. Its only weaknesses are the sharpness in the corners between F2.8 to F5.6 being only good on 61Mpix, and the sunstars that could be better defined

All three new Astrhori lens preorders:
AstrHori 12mm F2.8 Full-Frame Fisheye Lens at Amazon US, Amazon CA, Amazon DE, Amazon UK, Pergear.
AstrHori 18mm F8 Full-Frame Wide-Angle shift Lens at Amazon US, Amazon CA, Amazon DE, Amazon UK, Pergear.

RUMOR: New Sony 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II will be announced at the CP+ show in February

Share

An usually reliable source told me that there is a a very good chance that Sony will introduce the new 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II at the CP+ show in February. It’s terrific news considering how tremendously good the new 24-70mm GM II is. Expect the lens to be lighter, smaller and optically improved over the predecessor!

In summary: Sony will soon announce these two new FE lenses:

  • 20-70mm f/4.0 G
  • 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II
