I did add a no name  “grip” to mine like a small rig. It does have a wood hand grip like what small rig puts on some other cameras nut not on their A7C version. Seems t fit quite well. Never tried ...

At 24-70 f/2.8 I think the one missing feature is OSS like the new Canon RF has. Not sure what can be done about the weight though. Canon did not accomplish anything special there that I can tell ...

I got the 50 G. I own the 24/1.4 GM and it size is ok and quality is excellent. For 40 I still have a Zeus’s Batis 40mm f/2 CF, it’s bigger than I would like but also excellent. My FE 50/1.2 GM is ...

I talked with Canon support about this and I was informed that the battery that comes with the camera body is the only one covered under warranty for like 3 months. All other Canon batteries you ...

I was surprised to learn today that Sony has a $50 price reduction in place for the newish G series of there small lenses tailored for the A7C. Had been looking to buy one. My local brick and ...

Well I bought a used a7c about three weeks ago and knew the a7 IV was on the way but it did not stop me. An a7c II is at least 1-1.5 years away and more than $1000 more than I paid for my used ...

I like your math. I hope I get one in 8 weeks. I’m fortunate enough to be able to get the V2 in my hands and then decide. Have a 1.4x teleconverter that I bought with the 100-400 before the ...

This is where you need a well designed strap for the hand grip that gives you a way to create torque. A grip without it is much harder to use.

Ok, I am a fan of cameras with a battery grip, integrated or as an add on. Have owned several Series 1 Canon bodies that had these but have also bought an add on one for every DSLR and mirrorless ...

For portraits I should have been more specific that I’m talking about it in a event context like a wedding or at sporting events. I For regular portraits I use both the 85mm f/1.4 GM and the 135mm ...

Totally agree that you don’t need a 50/1.2 to get great photos at 50mm. What is my personal issue is the lack of a 50mm that is not designed to be weather resistant with fast focus and basically ...

I currently own 70-200/2.8 v1, 100-400, and 200-600 so if I go after the new v2 and fork out the extra money for the upgrade I was just wondering if money could be saved by combining the usage of ...

I own both Canon and Sony and I’m ok with the R5 price. The A1 maybe overpriced when compared to it,

While it may impact the price to produce it I really believe this has zero effect on the final market place price. I think very few end users would pay more the $100 for this.

Thank you all for your replies. I guess my take away from Gerald was not completely correct. I guess sometimes I hear what I want and not what he really might have said. I currently own the ...

I've been comparing the Canon RF 50/1.2L and the Sony 50/1.2 GM and optically or IQ wise they are very similar IMHO. This is using an EOS R5 and an Alpha 1 so the sensors are similar resolution. ...

I have owned both but used them on very different cameras. I used to use my EF 50/1.2L on my 5D Mark III and Mark IV. When I thought I was moving away from Canon for my full kit I sold it. That ...

So I know everyone here has seen most of the reviews that claim the new 70-200/2.8 OSS GM II is super sharp and fast focusing. One key comment (at least for me) was one made by Gerald Undone that ...

I know the EVF is not perfect but its the same size and resolution as the one on my Fuji X-E3 that is also 24 Mpixels so I have adapted fine. I bought the A7C to replace that camera. I have a ...
