And that is where my argument came from... looking at images. If you need RAWs, ask the person who posted them.

But, "EOS" to Canon is what "Alpha" is to Sony. EOS versus EOS-M... same family. Everybody in the family doesn't need to be an exact replica of the other. And that also includes EF to EF-S...

Pathetic attempt at running around in circles. But I'm glad you repeated what I have said a few times in this thread. So, one more time won't hurt: Both, A-mount and E-mount cameras belong to Sony...

Well, let us then discuss EVERY possible combination, and find out the optimal solution, instead of a moving target.

Russell, These images are not a good candidate to see banding since you're not really lifting any shadows but it is still influencing patterns (most visible in darker areas, around nose, for...

And both mounts were "Sony Alpha". That is a fact. Now, Sony has introduced an E-mount that is no longer a "NEX", also a "Sony Alpha". And has had "NEX" which are video cameras. So, if anything,...

For most part, yes. Actually, the C3 did a pretty good job at ISO 3200 for that particular image. I do note a slight change in color between ISO 3200 and ISO 800+push, visible in the lower left...

There are couple of options that work reasonably well but perhaps more for telephoto reach than for ultra wide angle. Sony DH1758 and Sony HG1758 are two examples. These are high quality optics...

No, as I mentioned earlier, all E-mount models were identified as an Alpha (the alpha logo is merely indicative of that). The SLTs did have model designation starting with an A (a carryover from...

And Sony may not wish to use "NEX" for photography models anymore, hence Sony Alpha NEX-7 may be replaced by Sony Alpha A7. Would you have been happier with, Sony Alpha 7? Yes, it is very...

You missed the point: They did. And for it, they obviously chose to use a designation for the family name "Alpha", instead of using mount as an identifier which you wanted.

I would normally use the post adjustment within limits, 2 stops at the most. If noise is an issue, the idea should be to expose (even slightly) to the right at any ISO. The benefit with shooting at...

Well, you do like "banding together", so I'm not surprised. If you love it, so be it. I preferred to speak with the images, and let people be there own judge. Save your frustrations for occasions...

No. "RX" belongs to "Cybershot" division. It is Alpha division that brings out A and E mount cameras. Whether you detested a NEX being always marketed as Alpha NEX is a different issue, and a...

The point wasn't that one looked fantastic. The point was that one had "hidden features". Is banding a nice thing to have? Don't be frustrated. If you want an honest debate, try not to be so...

All NEX cameras have been marketed since inception as Alpha NEX. The designation "NEX" may now be going away (and probably now reserved only for video camera). However, other than that one image...

APS-c is here to stay. Based on latest rumor, it does appear that Sony may be expanding into 7-series with FF sensor, but 3 and 5, possibly 6, series will surely have APS-c. The LA-EA2 wouldn't...

These accessory lenses are different in purpose. They don't have apertures, they simply change the field of view of the lens they are mounted on. For example, the 0.45x ultra wide converter, if...

OTOH, I see Sony trying to consolidate naming convention under their Alpha brand. And the best time to judge it will be when official announcements are made, for all models (not bits and pieces per...

Do note that BOTH were websized JPEGs. Why is it worse for the one that was being sold unconditionally (and as having an edge) previously? I worked with files provided and used to make a point. So,...
