Absolutely, but this ‘mount conversion release’ can still be used as an indication that the 400 and 600 mm lenses are more important than the 300 mm lens which didn’t even get this mount...

@panther fan
The longer form of my argument adds that the trend appeared to have been that 1x0-300 mm f/2.8 zooms were replacing the 300 mm f/2.8 primes. Similar to how the 70/80-200 mm f/2.8 zooms...

That is the first new 300 mm f/2.8 design in 14 years by any manufacturer (and the first for Sony in 21 years, excluding smaller updates like improved coatings), if we go by year of the actual lens...

It’s for those who keep switching frequently between a wide-angle zoom and a standard zoom (in particular outdoors where you have carry everything and where you cannot really put something down...

Panasonic?

Yes, these development announcements are all about marketing and PR. They have similarities with teasers but are less elaborate.

It is essentially an announcement that they have been developing said lens (for some while now) but are not quite there to announce a shipping date yet. But that announcement is usually just a few...

Via third-party apps, you can.

Yes, we have even known the Sony 'model numbers' for the sensors used in iPhones. Apple has been using Sony sensors since the iPhone 4s in 2011. The first four iPhone models used sensors from...

It depends on how powerful the authoritarian government is. I would not be surprised if this feature is not rolled out in China. But some small authoritarian African country won’t be able to...

Well, f/1.5 and 1/2.7” is about a 6.6x crop factor or f/10 equivalent f-stop on a 65 mm equivalent focal length. That’s a good stop faster than if you crop the main camera on the iPhone 14 Pro to...

Can’t you just buy the subscription using a different account from them?

Yes, any bit depth may contain any amount of dynamic range. But if you store something with a bit depth below the dynamic range, you loose information and this can show up visually as stepping.

I 2009, Leica sold a (no AF, no VR, no TC) 560 mm f/4 for €16’300 as part of its APO-Telyt-R Module system. What that is in todays Euros, I leave as an exercise to the reader (maybe add 25%). ...

What one is risking is depreciation.

Yeah, sure because nobody ever tried shooting backlit subjects with other competitive mirrorless cameras.
