You can adapt that lens but as others stated it's APS-C. You will have to shoot in crop mode and sacrifice resolution. Here's a sample I did with a7 + Tokina 11-16mm setup: https://flic.kr/p/L1YG8K ...

Your 2470GM can "almost" cover the 35 and 85. I'd take that one lens solution and stop worrying about changing lens etc. Enjoy your trip, cheers.

I think extending your reach to 600mm is better option than upgrading to an FF body for a wildlife photo op. Just my opinion, get the 100-400mm instead. on the other hand, 100-400 are specialized ...

Samyang 35mm f1.4 with the Sony 85mm 1.8 is the best combo optically. Only gripe is the size of Samyang 35/1.4. But there will be room for Samyang 24/2.8 in the future if you want ultra ...

out of topic: do anyone know the fps AF calculation for a7III? is it the same 60fps?

or keep waiting till one camera suffice your needs. Who know they may add those on next releases.

Get a dedicated macro lens for your needs.

Will you be shooting extensively/seriously with Macro? or you just want to try Macro photography?

f2.8 + a good tripod

Will only work on leveled surface. Few degrees off it will tip.

I'd say get it to pair with your 28-70. Not only you get a sharper 50mm you also get an f1.8 where the "full frame magic" happens. You will have access to low light and DOF type of photography. ...

Excellent choice! That would be line up too if I get to redo it again. Cheers

Get the native FE85/1.8 and call it a day. Stop worrying about getting a lens you don't own and "adapting" it. I don't see any logic there TBH. FE85/1.8 is already pretty good for the money.

Check, size is decent It is too specialized, I'd take 16-35/4 lesser volume than 2.8 and metal build too. 35/1.4 is on the huge side, assuming you're going mirrorless for lesser volume, then I ...

no news here, FE85 is no slouch! Even made the gear of the year for one of DPR's editor. If I get to change my lens lineup FE85 is top on the list

I've been purposely avoiding my local camera stores since the release of a7III. Reason: I don't want to have a "Hon, I accidentally swipe my card.. Whoops!" scenario. :-D The 2nd gens didn't really ...

I think there will be a new 35mm and Sony will drop an FE35F2 And the question remains, where's the 1.8? :-D

Eye AF is a custom button you set to, make sure you hold it to lock on the eyes. Only good for static objects for a7 and a7ii. Sophisticated Eye-AF are on the 3rd gen.

Sorry to hear, sucks that it happened to you. Was curious now, can't the shutter be closed when we try to un-mount any lens? Not a pro here.. there is probably a good reason why shutter is always ...

Hate to break it to you but the bokeh of 28mm F2 is not that good IMHO. It's wide angle and you have to shoot small subject at min focus to get that good background separation. If you wan't bokeh ...
