I think there's a seal at the mount point, but they're not properly weather sealed anywhere else in the lens - I wouldn't take them out in heavy rain.  However saying that I've used many of those ...

The Sony 35/1.8 has numerous advantages - better MFD, sharper close focusing, faster linear AF, breathing compensation support, 30fps and weather sealing. It's somewhat unloved largely due to it's ...

I've had several copies of both these lenses.  I eventually gave up buying the Samyang as I couldn't replicate the excellent first copy I had (and sold for the Sigma!).  Samyang copy variation is ...

EyeAF works with CDAF as well, doesn't it?  I assume EyeAF uses AI to determine the boundary of the eye - I guess/suspect earlier models used CV and later models use ML inference (but perhaps they ...

Portrait/street photographers might beg to differ.  There's a reason that EyeAF is a very popular and widely used AF option, not EyelashAF :) Seriously though, if the subject of your photograph is ...

If they made it with EFCS or no shutter, single card slot, same EVF etc, it would still have all the drawbacks of the A7Cii/A7CR - it would still be a hobby/amateur camera vs a professional one.

I doubt an A1C would make much commercial sense - it would be too expensive/niche/low volume to be worthwhile, with too many compromises over an A1 or A9iii and not enough difference to an A7CR. Wh ...

Very subjective of course, but I preferred the Sigma.  I got some really beautiful shots with the Sigma - both lenses are typical of their respective company's rendering styles, so it's down to ...

Wow, that's stunning!  (Bird and photo!)

Very happy for you.  Doesn't mean other people/cameras don't have problems.  I've shot tens of thousands of EyeAF shots on various Sony bodies over the past couple of years, I'm very familiar with ...

Yup I liked the A7iv but gave up on it because even on the latest firmware it was regularly focusing on eyelashes.  Hope they fixed this for the A7Cii. There was a theory floated that it was a ...

The A7c is a more modern camera than the A7iii - it has realtime tracking AF and video EyeAF, both of which are huge improvements for street/family shooting.  It's also meaningfully ...

The Sigma 35/1.2 is a really special lens - the output for me is like no other 35. - absolutely beautiful separation, bokeh and rendering.  I had so many amazing shots from that lens, it's so easy ...

Based on what?

I looked into this a while back - It's interesting that there are dozens of reviews for this body and some say yes and some say no! The only reviews/posts I've seen that actually do tests/a bit of ...

Funny I'm considering the same choice myself at the moment.  I've had most of the A7 and A7R models and the A7C.  I sold the A7C with the mind of getting the A7Cii but the new model is imho overly ...

Where did you find that information from?

Just to be clear, you have to use a fast prime, *wide open*, with a fast shutter speed. All you have to do to avoid this is to stop down a small amount, or use an ND filter in such a situation, ...

How does having a small camera make a lens harder to hold? I used this lens with the A7C at sports events, it was absolutely fine.  Easier than the Sigma 100-400 as it comes with a tripod mount ...

It's great that bigger media outfits are saying this so directly, as well as Canon potentially opening up RF mount, Sony will have to change their attitude towards supporting existing products ...
