Seriously? That is true of practically every notable camera that comes out from whatever brand. Why does someone always have to post nonsense accusations like this.

There are reports online, not yet carefully verified, that there are AF issues with the Sony FE version of the Sigma Art 135mm f1.8 in low light, whereas the Canon version with the MC-11 adapter...

You mention "vendors on Amazon."  Third party vendors on amazon different dramatically in reputability.  On amazon, I generally only buy from amazon, unless its a well known vendor (like ...

Actually in the shots above there are strong difference in DR -- look at the windows, and the yellow vs white (thus presumably blown out) lamp shade.  I assume the shots that don't have blown out ...

I went with the Laowa 15mm f2 zero-d as my astro nightscape lens.  The Loxia 21mm is also wonderful (and a fabulous landscape prime in general) but the wider field of the 15mm works better for me ...

I don't think they are the lenses he feels are most likely as much as they are the lenses he would most like.

Cropping before or after isn't the issue. There is no difference in the image between cropping in camera or in post. The issue for perspective distortion (for example, an overly big nose on a...

ZeBebito - That is only true if you frame the shot as a 28mm shot and then stand still while flicking the digital zoom on. It is not true if you change your distance to subject, reframing to match...

The absolutely worst contest rules I've seen. Way to annoy your customers.

Interestingly the road isn't really a leading line.

I quite like 4, and 7 isn't bad. 10 is the oddball out for me.

I actually own the f4 zoom and Laowa.  I take landscapes much more often than astro, so for me, I do get weight savings all the times I'm out knowing I'm not taking astro shots.  I only take both ...

I've been interested in the camera since its first announced, but it is going to be hard to swallow what is likely to be the high price in light of issues like the low battery life and overly...

Grumpy much? The basics of the ZX1 was announced months ago; this is a follow up. Likewise, it is also already known that the Q2 is going to be announced in about a week (March 6 if I remember...

Pretty smooth background bokeh on those closeup shots

There are some examples on the fredmiranda forum showing clearly reduced/elimination of moire in fine detail when pixel peeping.

The second level of magnification.  Personally, I've never found focus peaking to be of much use.  With the highest magnification level through the viewfinder, it is usually easy to see when you ...

@milkod2001 I wish that were true, but in fact, there are significant and relevant hardware differences at the sensor/chip level between the A9 and the 3 series, so in fact, there is a legitimate...

I have this sinking (read: wallet draining) feeling this means that my A7riii is going to end up being replaced by an A7riv.

That is my take too.  If you go with Sony, you will be happiest with Sony lenses. The Sony 24-105 f4 is well reviewed, but I wouldn't want to have to use an f/4 lens indoors all the time.  I love ...
