Thank you so much for your thoughts and advice. Much appreciated. I will re-read it a view times and and think it over.
F1.8 x 1.6 (crop factor) = 2.9
Sony: f/1.8 * 1.5= 2.8
There is your stop of light difference for the zooms between formats!
For a zoom, especially the longer ones, f/2.8 (equivalent) is good enough for me.
I'm in situations where action is occurring in low light, so primes also come into play to get the ss to stop action and keep the noise down -- ie, our 35 f2 IS
therefore, I have interest in the new f1.4 sigmas but also that 32 f1.4 that you sent back
if you can get it to work, you may have the best value proposition Crop - > FF equalizer on this forum and this site
Ideally i would save up for the successor of the A7III + lenses without spilling money on incremental upgrades. However, i need that A6400 AF right now. My daughters won't pause their lives because daddy is saving up for a new camera. You can't do this 3 years over again.
been there, done that, but 3 months is not 3 years and taking pause between now and the end of the year to thoroughly consider the options like the three new sigmas for the m6ii
M50 is better than M100 for AF, but still it chooses the wrong eye or the borders of the subject in stead of the eye or front of the subject too often. Actually, the M50 sets the bar higher for my AF-wishes. It was good. Great improvement. But now i want better.
I've been a high action sports shooter for 15 years -- I haven't been interested in the m series until the m6ii
please keep us apprised
I will wait for the good and detailed reviews of the A6600. And i need to take a look at how these C-modes actually work to evaluate how important it is to have 3 in stead of 1.
yes, give yourself time to study during the 3 months
the deals will be there in late Nov/Dec
my guess is that the m6ii with DPP and the new 1.4 sigmas will get my business
