I thought I was interested in DF, but I don't。I found the new D610 has everything I want and the new A7 has everything I want.

It is very sad to know Alpha mount dSLRs have lost their third place in Japan, no not too. I stopped buying their dSLRs after A77, a camera giving me too much noise. On the other hand, I bought an Nex 5n, 5r, 6 and 3n in 2013 simply for me to bring my gear down under water with the launch of some be...

Thanks David for the input. I got my Sigma 35 1.4 on D800 and this lens is phonemically sharp. The colour is however very weird. I now permanently mount Sigma 35 on my D800 as a standard lens. I did not buy D7100 because my fellow shooters ditch it shortly after telling me about the noise issue. I k...

I was about to talk about the crazy price of 500 F4 which was a dream lens to me and the dream was broken by the price. However I also observe that inexpensive lenses can also be very good and recent good examples are Canon 40mm f2.8 stm, Sigma 30 f2.8, 19 f2.8. Even the Sony 35f1.8DT, 50 f1.8, 85 f...

Thanks for all the responds. I was always in a doubt, after seething the charming growth of M43 and Fujifilm mirrorless market, why Sony put himself in such an embarrassing condition by launching numerous camera bodies with only a handful of quality lenses, especially comparing to the primes made by...

I was rambling about the shortage and lack of quality prime lenses from Sony. This local dealer told me that it is too costly to manufacture a lens. He quoted 135 stf as an example that Sony may have to pay much more money than we pay in the shop. That is why some lenses cease production. I cannot u...

coupled with an extension tube or close up, 30 mm can do super macro

Samyang 14mm f2.8

18-35 is so good and the only..thing it does not have is in lens IS....so will be great to be used on Pentax/Sony bodies. BTW the 16-50 f2.8 is a very sharp lens after all

After reading DxO review, I called many local dealers ...that A3000 is selling at only 400 USD

I am also puzzled by the Nikon way of handling auto ISO....Canon has a better way and now comes A7

Is there a A mount version of Sigma 18-35 which is an exceptional lens in optical quality.

I have had Minolta 85 for years and years....thought it was the sharpest 85 ever maded. ZA version is better

Bought the lens for two days....amazed by its,,craftsmanship, even better than my...Nikon G, Canon L, ..Sony... and there comes the sharpness
