I have never heard a single report of a failure in terms of the AF-system, but thousands reports how great the AF works  ! He was also the only guy which totaly talked down the 70-200GM, in the ...

This is what an 18k combo can do?? really??

Testing AF speed with the A7r3 and the 105/4.0, and the combo works great! Setting was: AF-C with field area in the middle.

my lens is not affected and has zero focus shift, just for info.

You are right, if i put a flash on my a7r3, the live view turns off, but i can set it to on again, and now it stays on, so not a big deal for me.

great first post, congrates!

I got my lens today and everthing works perfect. I can easy handhold 1/15sec. at 105mm with great result. Lensfirmware is 0.1

touchfocus disables AF-C and lock the focus, a klick on the joystick and AF-C works again.

Nikon was the first with SLR´s, and will be the last with DSLR´s, it´s a nice POV, isn´t it.

thiis picture is very flat and lifelkess, compared to your 180/2,8 nikkor pictures!

Pre AF on, works the same way!

Do you have pictures from you as a child, if yes, i bet all are made without AF:)

Have you tried to disable all lens corrections in the camera? The vignetting controll could be the reason for this effect! I have had exactly the same effect, interstingly, my vertical pictures ...

no problems for me, works without any troubles. Win 7 pro

disortion is a con, otherwise a stunning lens! here is a testreview http://www.photozone.de/sonyalphaff/1032-zeissbatis85f18

he have a lot of panning like movements in his video, mostly with the 70-200 GM. For this kind of movements ibis mode 2 works best, it looks like he was in mode 1.

My file naming works, so no firmware for me.

Your 55/1,8 sucks, thats the point!

A7r ii was testet with the 55/1,8, A7r iii with the 85/1,8. Not exactly the same IMO.

Very nice pictures, but on my 4k display the pictures are so tiny, it´s not fun to watch them!
