I have 2 primes the 35GM and the 85 DG DN. For the wide end I use a Sigma 16-28mm DG DN f/2.8 for a 3 lens compact kit with the above two. If I were forced to use a prime UWA/WA it would be either ...

The patch notes mention improved Eye AF. To those that have installed it successfully are you noticing an improvement there?

I can’t speak for Tamron as I don’t have any but with all three of my Sigma DG DN lenses this works just fine on my A7IV.

I don’t see it on the Sony US website yet. Still has the update pulled message so I presume some regions were quicker to get it up again if that’s the case. I’ll probably give it a week or so just ...

You've got quite the kit between the FF and M43 setup. 20G seems like a great all around lens and a nice compact size and lightweight. Sony does some impressive stuff when you look at the ...

Very nice combo. Yes the 85DN is fantastic. We're overlapping with the 35GM + 85DN. Both are incredible lenses. Maybe I'll consider a dedicated Ultra-Wide (20G) or Wide (24 GM) prime one day but ...

Have you decided on what you're ending up with? I wouldn't be surprised though if Sony go with an f/1.2 vs. f/1.4 aperture if they do a new GM II version of the 85mm. That would likely mean it ...

Those bags look pretty nice, will keep in mind if I pick up another one. Would be nice to be able to try locally but guessing it’s not possible other than ordering directly from them in Taiwan. The ...

I did get the FE 70-300 G once I migrated as it's the closest thing but there is a noticeable size and weight difference (see below). Tele glass is where M43 has the most benefit. I feel the Sony ...

I'm new to Sony mirrorless having switched from M43 but I just got the 35 GM f/1.4 and 85mm DG DN f/1.4 and both are spectacular lenses. I think pairing with your 24 GM would make an ideal 3 lens ...

Yes agree, many lenses don't exist on FF. For example the new Oly 40-150mm f/4 is a great range, high quality optics/build and light and small. It's an f/8 equivalent however and no one is going ...

Thanks, I was able to check out the 10L V2 at REI. I can fit the three zooms + either the 35mm or 85mm prime. If I have the 70-300 on the body I can even fit all 5 of my lenses by stacking the ...

Ha, totally relate. I was all set with just my 2 main 16-28mm + 28-70mm f/2.8 zooms given equiv. to f/1.4 in M43 for DOF which is all I thought I needed and here I am almost $3k in on just the two ...

You’re right the 50mm GM doesn’t look that large in the context of an f/1.2 lens. Especially next to the Canon RF version below. Still pretty heavy though but manageable. The thing is I’m so used ...

Thanks I hadn't heard of that brand before. Will look into it. For now I'm actually leaning towards not adding another bag. I have my existing sling and like you noted I'm likely to go out with 3 ...

Just looked it up and I had a thread about the OM-1 upgrade that I was contemplating that you responded with some helpful comments on too. Ultimately the A7IV Eye AF performed slightly better than ...

Thanks for the replies. Given I'm in NYC pretty easy for me to pick it up so I did so. Overall looks to be an amazing performer based on my very quick messing about. Nice rendering, fast focus and ...

Hi all - recently sold my M43 setup (which I had used for 10 years since the original OM-D E-M5 and actually liked a lot given portability) and got the A7IV. Since I value portability I got the ...

In short definitely a very nice device. Tried it with the 12-40 f2.8 and 40-150 f2.8 (which is fantastic but too large though I am tempted haha). Too bad they didn't; have the 40-150 f4 in stock ...

Thank you! She's 2 months today and doing great! Appreciate the input as-well. I'm not expecting a ton on IQ improvements, but I'll take any developments it offers. The E-M5 color shift was very ...
