Got this on pre-order. It is noticeably better than the Sony GM equivalent, which I owned at the time before I sold.

The newer model is better. Presumably some cameras will actually be persistently able to connect to the web and upload, rather than requiring a fiddly manual connection process. If this is so (or...

I don't think it would be terribly productive to try to rationalize the Sony menu systems - or the inconsistency among the cameras and versions. Essentially, their menu system suffers from some ...

I found the update to be as significant a change as going from the A9 Mark I to the A9 Mark II. Which is to say, I didn't notice any difference. Ba dump bump.

I have found it a difference-maker. If I were choosing between 35mm primes, I'd likely be choosing between an f/1.8 versus the Sigma 1.2, as anything in the f/1.4 range will be very significantly ...

I owned both at the same time. Now just own the 135 (because I have a different 85mm that is excellent and much lighter and cheaper). I actually owned 3 85mm arts at different times. Sharpness is ...

I hadn't really thought of it this way before, but my behavior of late is to sell my Sony lens when a new Sigma native Sony equivalent comes out. Just did that with the 24-70 f/2.8 and the 35...

The "rendering" argument has been used variously with surpassed lenses over the years. The problem with it is that it means different things to different people. Some notice color temperature...

Sigma's 35mm f/1.2 (available on Sony e-mount and the L-mount Alliance system) is in the same league, it appears, as this 85 1.2.

I don't think Sony will be the provider of the crazy-class of...

The version downloadable on the Sony site appears to be 12.0.0.322. Can anyone indicate where they got the newer version? Thanks!

Having moved mostly from Canon, I find that with the A92 and the A7R4 the colors are slightly better on skin tones than the A9 (own all still). However, I find that Sony is less consistent. ...

I owned two copies of this lens and rented another prior to that. Simultaneously, for a time at least, had the Canon 500mm F/4 II as well. I found consistently that the Sigma lenses were about 99 ...

They updated this crop lens to a full frame version, but in the process, they lost 1/3 of a stop and had to shorten the zoom range to 24-35. It is the 24-35 f/2. It is a shockingly sharp lens for ...

I have a significant Canon lens collection, and it's been working great on my two Sony bodies with the Sigma MC-11 adapter. Before that it was working great on the Panasonic new full frame body. ...

I strongly advise buying a used 5d4. Or a 5dsr. They are quite cheap now (especially 5dsr) in the used market, and as a result, if you want to move to another body when something comes out in ...

Had a similar experience with a different water situation. Was taking pictures from above a waterfall. The drone (Phantom 4) was fixing its location by looking down with a camera and attempting to ...

Owned both, as well as the Canon 35 f/1.4 L II (not all at the same time). Wound up settling on the Tamron 1.8 because it was 95 percent as good as the others, and the VC can in really handy, ...

Had the 3442 for a number of years. Loved its weight. Then I eventually figured out that it was terrible for stabilization. Serious torsional movement (left to right vibration). It was mostly due ...

Used prices have gone down roughly $400 since the A92 was announced. You may or may not see any price movement on the new ones, but I do expect the retailers to start throwing in more junk to give ...
