Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 definitely worth a look.
-
The high-resolution R-series Sony cameras have never made for compelling video cameras. If you do a lot of videography, then you should look elsewhere. That's not really new -- Sony offers other...
-
Also, as long as we're talking about rumors, isn't there a 50mm f/1.4 GM on the rumor list, too?
-
The only one that interests me on that list is the 85 f/1.2 GM. Sony has been knocking it out of the park with the recent GM primes, and I'd love to add the new 85 to my kit. But then that's it... ...
-
From my perspective, that's just about the perfect travel kit. The Sony 35 f/1.4 is the one lens that is nearly always in my bag. It's an extremely versatile prime, it's a joy to shoot, and I ...

As a 15-year veteran of photojournalism, you obviously know what all that gear is capable of (and what it's not), and why you accumulated and have come to love those primes. I'm just here to say ...
-
[snip] Just a heads up that with the 14 Pro, Apple changed it to 24mm (equivalent), and I feel like I notice every bit of that 2mm difference. And of course 26mm was already down from 28mm, which ...

It's $1,549 from 6th Ave -- that's $350 off the list price. Still a decent discount for grey market gear, but not $600. And as the other comment noted, you're giving up a pretty hefty warranty ...
-
Yup, sounds like the perfect use case for a Ricoh GRIII(X). I used the Ricoh GRIII (essentially the same camera with different focal length) for a few years, and it's a little beast of a camera. ...

@Fairlane: I'm not arguing that $1,099 is a deal, although it is about what I would have expected from Sony here. I just think a slower, variable aperture kit lens with less range and fewer...
-
@Fairlane: I think brand wars are silly, and I'm no Sony apologist, but this is a strange comparison. The Panasonic 20-60 has a variable aperture, and it drops to f/5.6 at the long end. Also, that...
-
At the risk of going off topic, I'd recommend putting it towards that 35mm GM (assuming a 35mm prime is something you'll use). It's such a good lens -- the only one I own that I can't imagine ...
-
Indeed, and the price is much more attractive than the rumors suggested. I also don't mind that digital correction is part of the design, although if that does bother you, then this lens looks to ...
-
Well here are the details (and a photo of the lens) a bit early, thanks to SAR, but really thanks to a DPR error. Price is $1,099, which is much better than the rumors suggested. EDIT: It also ...
-
I'll put in another vote for the a7c. I added one to my kit recently, and I really enjoy it for everyday/candid/family use. The real-time tracking AF in particular has been a bit of a ...
-
Some folks will look at that picture and say "you have a problem." Other folks will look at that picture and say "it's a pretty good start." I can relate to the people in the second group :) For ...
-
I would be strongly inclined to take both lenses. In fact, the Sony 24-105 and Sony 35mm f/1.4 is a two-lens combination I carry often, and it's really quite versatile. The 24-105 is my go-to ...
-
The Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 is a fantastic lens, and used copies can be had for around $1,000.
-
Lots of assumptions and broad generalizations here, but no point in going down the rabbit hole. I think we're largely on the same page. To be clear, I'm not arguing against the 20-70. I love that ...
-
This is my initial hang-up, too. I've no problem spending money on great lenses (for me, it's typically been the GM primes), but $1,700 for an f/4 zoom is a big ask. I know that's what a new ...
