  • Good to see companies sharing the knowledge a little. Means only good things for the consumers.

  • curious why the 70-200mm hasn't been updated yet.

    would the 70-200mm + 2x teleconverter be a better setup than simply a slower 70-400mm?

  • the 115 sounds like a step down from the 110? Whats going on with the exclusion of 1080p?

  • thanks again, interesting idea with the usb power block.I picked up the camera again today (indoors) uncharged since the weekends cold. And the battery now shows like 60% charge, so I'm guessing...
  • Thanks so much for the detailed information. I had a basic understanding of Mah and Watt Hours, but your insight into the temperatures vs voltage was really interesting.I guess deep down, I knew it...
  • well bigger and softer. Personally for me the NEX7 eyecup didn't block out enough light coming from the sides. This might be better.
  • Created question RX1 Battery Life?
    I got my RX1 last week and hadn't had much of a chance to use it, but I did today, and to be fair its cold out 22F. I used my fully charged RX100 battery in it, but I got like 20 shots before it...
  • I just dug up the model number, I think it was the Mju II from 1997, it had a 35mm f2.8 lens (I realise that is not f2), so I guess its all about the aperture?

    Perhaps just tolerance for what was...

  • Question about old compact Film 35mm cameras. I remember when I was a little lad, my dad had a 35mm Olympus Film Camera. I think it was part of the Mju series.

    The pictures were always pretty...

  • Replied in Amazon: Nov 26th
    I was notified on Wed last week (by amazon) that mine would arrive on Nov 26th (today). I was also contacted directly by their Camera Con-siege department on Friday to confirm delivery would need...
  • meh, personally if it'll get me 99% of the quality at 60% of the cost, Its a good thing.

    It means one very important thing, I'm not worried about it being stolen or smashed, and I relax and just...

  • according to the PR it does exist: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/indepth/tamron/news/new-tamron-sp-24-70mm-zoom-nikon-canon-and-sony

    wonder if it has the quiet motor and the Image Stabilisation though

  • too funny. But heart goes out to the fallen lenses. Painful to watch.

  • is the HSM available on the Sony mount?

  • If the NEX7 had an OVF and Full Frame Sensor. There is little else I would want from a Camera (ever).

  • No offense, but this will sound a little harsh.... I'm not sure what you expected.The specs have been known for some time, the manual is available online. If you were aware of what it...
  • Replied in well..
    I think the hope is that they follow the community and read about complaints here and on other forums. But realistically I would put more faith in contacting those who have Sony's ear. People like...
  • Yeah, I'd not heard anything about the compatibility changes, but its a welcome change. I've got the 35mm preordered. Hoping it comes before my RX1. Still not sure if I want the RX1 (stupid lack of...
  • Anyone notice a change to the Manual Focusing Responsiveness on the Zeiss24mm? I used to find it really sluggish, where I would have to turn and turn to even notice any change on screen. Since the...
