The EOS R closes the shutter when you remove the lens, protecting the sensor during that time that there is no lens on the camera.

The a900 was not mirrorless. It was a DSLR. The a99 SLT shot compressed raw files only but the a99 Mark II shoots and records uncompressed raw files.

Not everyone has dedicated their life to capturing the ultimate photograph of a black cat eating licorice in a coal bin at midnight.

Go on ebay and find a clean used copy of the Minolta 100mm f2.8 Macro, either the RS (restyled) version or the final D version. The D version is the same thing as the Sony 100mm f2.8 Macro. I have ...

Nikon fifties are all great-even the cheap ones, aren't they? I don't understand looking around for an unproven lens to fill a gap that doesn't really exist. If you want something BETTER than Nikon...

You probably can't go wrong with almost any system camera made today by anyone. People are yelling about the Canon D6 II, but how bad can it be? Not very bad. There is something awesome for...

Sony NEX cameras used a brand-new mount, the e mount. It has evolved into e plus fe for full frame.

Not for everyone. Professional video shooters have been using EVFs for decades. I though I would hate it, coming from Minolta, whose OVFs were superb. Now, being on my 3rd SLT, I wouldn't want to...

I wouldn't worry about a UPC number. Just go to Ebay and search "Minolta AF 35-105 f3.5-4.5 Macro" and a bunch of them should pop up. You've already had one, so you already know what you're ...

Wouldn't you be better off with the Sony 70-200 f2.8 G Master?

I wonder how this compares with the Tamron 70-300 that's been around for a few years-the one with the alphabet soup name. That's been a viable contender for many who don't need or aren't willing to...

I think they may be shooting ar 2.8 to show what it can do wide open, which is good, although I tend to agree with you. The crowd not sharp completely, but just enough to know they're people and...

We're talking about every cell phone made. Every camera. So what about all the cell phones in everyone's POCKET?

Just what every phone needs: MORE cameras installed with junk optics. I'd be happy with ONE camera in my phone with a decent lens. Nope. Not going to happen. More cameras. More apps that...

Most of our meddling in other countries' problems has been with the purpose of capitalizing their natural resources, as opposed to helping their people. Afghanistan is all about neodymium,...

Even if you mount the "world's finest cinematic" lens to the front of this thing, you're STILL shooting into the image path of it through the crap that passes for optics on your phone. Yes, we get...

I agree, but what do we do? How do we stop climate change? How do we loosen the grip on power wielded by the fossil fuel industry? So far, the best changes are happening at a local level, city by...

Yeah, especially a manual focus lens. Not much of a bargain.

@ entoman : A Sony a99 II would.

In what way is Canon ahead of Sony in Japan in the mirrorless market?
