![]() | Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Pros: Image Quality, Focal Range, 2.8 Fixed Cons: At the moment none Opinion: An almost one-of-a-kind lens, light and compact that starting from 20mm allows you to leave even the wide-angle lens at home. For many genres it could be the only lens to carry around, possibly flanked only by a telephoto lens, if necessary. Excellent image quality, quiet and precise autofocus, nice blur at 40mm, plus the close focusing distance allows you to get creative. With the fixed 2.8 it adapts very well to indoor situations with low light and night photography. It's become the lens that I always keep attached to my camera. On the A74 I can use it in apsc with the simple press of a button, reaching 60mm equivalent. Maybe if you look closely in some situations you can detect a slight vignetting or a slight distortion, but overall nothing particularly noticeable and that cannot be solved with a click. sent on November 02, 2023 |
![]() | Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD Pros: Allows you to exit with only one lens, sharpness, size Cons: Blurry good, but not always great Opinion: I bought this lens to combine with the A7C for a family trip, not being able to bring too many goals. I must say that I was very satisfied and I find that the combination is very successful. The lens is very sharp and the images it returns are always detailed and with pleasant colors. Of course it had had 4 mm more at the bottom it would have been the maximum, but probably it would not have been the same size. For the use to which it is intended I would say that it is perfectly fine. In situations of complicated backgrounds, such as branches and leaves, the blur is slightly "nervous", but always pleasant. This lens goes beyond the idea of the usual all-rounder that is often seen as a great compromise at the expense of quality. In this case the quality is always perceptible and the lens can also be used in many situations where a handyman is not necessarily needed. If you are not too demanding it can very well replace many fixed and especially many zooms with more limited excursion. As far as I am concerned, I would say that he is promoted with flying colors. sent on November 10, 2022 |
![]() | Sony A7C Pros: Image quality, autofocus, battery life, compact and lightweight Cons: Ergonomics a bit 'penalized by compactness, EVF not exceptional but still well usable Opinion: It's a camera I've owned for a couple of months and it's giving me a lot of satisfaction. It is true that compromises have been made to have compact dimensions, but it is thanks to this that I now always carry it with me without too many problems and gives me many more opportunities to shoot. The compromises then do not concern the image quality and the autofocus which are the two most important features. It produces fantastic images in both jpeg and raw, with always well-balanced colors and great dynamic range. Shooting in jpeg you need to find your favorite adjustments and pay attention to the white balance in particular situations, but this applies to any camera. The autofocus is definitely a strong point, fast and precise. If you let her do it, she never misses a shot, I don't know how she does it, but she always guesses the right focus (as long as we remember to activate the eye-af). If you want to have maximum control nothing could be easier with real time tracking and touchpad. The joystick is missing, but really on this camera it would be almost superfluous. The keys are all programmable and so I can have what I need always at hand. In M mode, adjusting the times/apertures with the rear wheel is just a matter of habit. The EVF viewfinder is not top-in-class, but still fully usable. Looking at the viewfinder with the right eye, I find it very convenient that it is placed on the left instead of in the center. In the hand the A7C gives the feeling of very solid construction. Finally a note on the battery that lasts a lot. I promote it with flying colors and recommend it to anyone who wants a camera to always have in tow. The A7C is almost a compact, but if necessary it can become a semi-professional machine with image quality and AF at the top. I can use it for Sunday outings in the family with the 28-60 of the kit (also excellent with the obvious limitations) or with the small 35/2.8, but I can attach any other optics for more demanding outings. In summary, it is a camera that, although with some limitations in ergonomics, allows you to really do everything and with great quality. I do not see it as suitable for intense professional use, where ergonomics can often be even more important than image quality alone. Final mark 10- sent on February 17, 2022 |
