a7R II

I 2nd this. Buy an old Sony Nex or Fuji mirrorless and slap a vintage Nikon or Canon MF lens on it from the 70s-80s via a $9 adapter. When i bought my A7Rii new a decade ago, I didn't have the money for the 1st party lenses available and so I exclusively used Fujica and Minolta SR mount lenses for t

No. Frankly I prefer the colour I've seen from the recent Sonys to that from the Canons. I find Canon is always biasing warm, while the better Sonys just have a healthy colour, without being biased. There was an era of Sony where colour was iffy, the a7rii in particular, but that was 11 years ago no

I have an MD 50mm f/1.2 and its plenty sharp when used on my Sony a7R II: https://flic.kr/p/2njCnmj

I have beaten this drum to death by now but I went A7R2 -> Z7II w/Viltrox E-Z for about 4 months. Mid June sold the Z7II for a Z8. I shared your sentiment for disdain towards spending a metric ton just to shoot decent FPS on Sony, not to mention CFe A vs B. Ultimately it was a mix of that, having to

Je te comprends. Je suis passé de MFT (Olympus) à FF (Sony), puis retour à MFT (Panasonic) pour la compacité, et là je suis en APSC (Fuji) qui est je trouve un bon compromis qualité/encombrement (mais j'ai énormément hésité à revenir vers Sony). Le passage d'Olympus à Sony a apporté énormément pour

Using the magnify button to punch in for focus helps, One of the benefits of mirrorless is you can get cheap adapters and very cheap quality lenses. I use my E-PL1 with old Prakita/Pentacon lenses, Have not spent more than £30 on a lens, 28mm 2.8, 50mm 1.8 and 135mm 2.8. Its a cost effective way to

I had several film scanners in the past - among them a Nikon Coolscan 8000, a Reflecta MF5000 and last but definitely not least an Imacon Flextight 646 (good old times around 2010, when professionals sold their equipment dirt cheap, because they all switched from film to digital). I sold the Imacon,

You can tell by the responses... It's a very personal thing. I will disagree with people saying the x100 is simply better for street. The M240 will only ever miss a shot if you fuck it up. In my book, that makes it perfect for street. It's all you. I've been on the M240 for years. Other cameras come

The Sony A7RII and Leica SL were released the same year, 2015. The Leica SL has a maximum DR of ~13.1 stops at ISO 50, vs 13.3 for the A7RII. This is very competitive at low ISO. The trouble arises once you get out of the low ISO band and into the "we actually take pictures here" region -- ISO 400 t

If I want to travel light I use the Voigtlander 12, 15, 35mm (with Canon 50 and Leica 90mm). They are all small and pocketable even with a Sony A7RII, just need bigger pockets, there is also a Voigtlander 25mm that would be a small combo, if you are lucky you should be able to get one with an adapte
