It looks to me like with the A73, Sony has moved the color needle even further towards Canon color, away from Nikon color.   I like that very much, even that I prefer Nikon cameras over Canon for ...

Important issues to address. Gary Friedman - a Sony mirrorless fanatic and amazing educator - demonstrates in his videos that the Sony autofocus points focus only on either all vertical or all ...

Pay attention as to whether any of the AF points are cross type.  Sony has no cross type AF points at all.

This raises a good question: how will they adapt their lenses which mostly are mechanical aperture arm, right?

I have often wondered whether this was possible. Do you have to buy a copy of Windows too? Or can you run the update just using Parallels?

Thanks for telling the story.   I wonder what is so hard for them to get right?   I will test my 24-105mm carefully upon return, now that I understand what problems are possible (e.g. works ok up ...

It never dawned on me to visit their site with the lens and have them do it while I was present.  Never realized it was an option. Glad to hear this worked out so well for you.

I called them to discuss it and then used the online order form at the link on this page. https://www.sigmaphoto.com/service-support/

Excellent points in these last few posts, you have me rethinking my decision to ship it out to Sigma.    What happens in a year when I suspect that it needs to have the focus adjustment touched ...

Yep, sorry that I overlooked this question initially.  You have the option of just sending in the lens and getting it calibrated, without a camera body, or you can also send in a camera body for ...

Thanks for letting me know, this is very encouraging.

This is fantastic information, I will save it of course :-) I do my own MFA on my Nikons using the "dot-tune" method but I do not have the time currently to investigate or deploy the more powerful ...

Sigma USA has a lens calibration service.   I'm curious to know whether they can improve on the results achieved with the 24-70 lens as shipped.  Have any of you tried it?

I'm considering paying Sigma's $100 fee to get my 24-105mm calibrated in their shop to my D750.   Have any of you tried this service?  Did you get results that you are happy with?

Good point here, but in low light focusing stopped down can cause problems.   I love that my Sony A7iii has AF with amazing capabilities but invoking them is often vastly more tenuous than using a ...

It is working now!   How spooky is that.   There must have been a background update associated with that June 26, 2018.  Either that or one of my open apps was blocking it from working?   Will ...

You are correct that https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207972 shows A7iii as supported.  Effective date June 26, 2018. But https://support.apple.com/en-us/ht207972 does not show it.   Effective ...

Not sure what "support" means but as of this morning the Finder still does not show the photograph  of the raw when in icon mode.   Instead it shows a generic icon.   It does show the photograph ...

The bulk of the weight savings in APSC can come from the crop factor.   EG 85mm lens becomes 128mm.    50mm becomes 75mm.

Give away the razor and charge more for the blades. A73 is a really good value (presuming it settles down and behaves as I expect).   Lenses are a premium.
