I'd suggest none of the above and take a serious look at the Voigtländer 35mm f/1.2 Nokton III Asph ($1049.00). The idea would be to complement what you have with something you don't have, a fast ...

I'd charitably call it a sleeper with a curve... ; - )

+ 1 on the camera blur observation. One method of overcoming poor technique with an M rangefinder is practice, practice, practice... That you chose to start off with what at best is a difficult ...

Rather than continuing to spew nonsense, try google... "Raw files contain the information required to produce a viewable image from the camera's sensor data. The structure of raw files often ...

No. These are all simply data formats. The only difference with a RAW file is that it has more data and more extensive flags in the file header that different software use or don't use as intended...

I shoot jpg, almost exclusively with a Z7. Also have a a7ii. One difference between the Z and the a7xxx (in both jpg & RAW) is what is sometimes referred to as the highlight roll-off. The Sony ...

A traditional approach is usually something like a 28, 50, 90 or 21/24, 35, 75. The spacing between 35, 50 and 75 not that useful if you're looking at mainly family portraits. Since you have a 50 ...

That might be commendable if all Sony a#xxx bodies were equal. However when one takes a native E mount version of an M mount lens and gets different results on two a9x bodies with the same lens, ...

If you peruse his older articles you'll get an idea where he's coming from. Anyone testing an M mount lens on a Sony and uses that to give a definitive assessment of the lens is beyond clueless... ...

Thanks! I have a shimmed Kipon and unshimmed 7Artisans and Fotsay M to Z. The 7Artisans M - Z is a hair off the correct registration distance. Whatever works ; - )

That may be true on some Sony bodies, depending on the manufacturing tolerance for the particular body. For Z bodies, I haven't seen any hints of the kind of variations that one can get with Sony ...

Thanks! I suspect that both the M and E versions should work on the Z6.

All the fast lenses will vignette wide open, some more, others less. The 40mm Nokton was shot wide open so that may give you some idea. The 21mm was shot at f/5.6 or f/8 and the ooc jpg's contrast ...
