The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Sony A7r II Pros: Price of used in 2021-2022 from entry level, but in the hand you have a hyper professional body; fantastic sensor, stabilized and backlit; medium-high iso noise (up to 2000) practically non-existent, which for a 42 mpx machine is not obvious; AF in line with the type of machine, remember that it was born for landscapes, architecture, still life et similia, you can not expect it to have a reactive AF like A7 III or A7R IV; much closer in settings to the A7 III than to the A7 II; build quality; silent shooting; thanks to the customizations you have the opportunity to sew it on; possibility to shoot in APSC mode and to use apsc optics on an FF body; charging via USB Cons: Very personal and for the price it has today I would call them only vices of Sony youth, but still: battery life, but not original cost very little and are super light; single slot, but it is very personal, not working on it for an amateur photo that does not stress the SD the single slot is not a big problem; Buffer, but as mentioned above it is not a machine for action; Single AF not very convincing; EVF dated, but usable without any problem. A big flaw, which unfortunately has only been solved with A7IV by Sony, is the sensor always discovered when the machine is turned off. Unfortunately, therefore, the sensor gets dirty very quickly Opinion: I find it hard to understand those who complain about heavy Raw, if you want lighter and more malleable files stay on rooms with less resolution! Surely such heavy files need a lot of GB of space and adequate hardware to process them, but these are things you should know when buying jewelry like this machine. The machine is amazing, usable everywhere, robust and well built, I use it mainly with a 20mm Tokina and with a 135mm Itorex with Minolta MD connection. The colors he returns with the latter are fabulous, warm and super pleasant. It obviously needs serious and well-built optics, 42mpx do not forgive with cheap or poorly assembled optics. The possibility, but like all mirrorless, of being able to pre-visualize the shot, even in BN, helps you to practically never make mistakes and to focus on your style or your moment. Do you want to shoot in BN and contract on the scene? you do. Do you want colors? you do. It's crazy! For those who want to learn photography in depth, this is an incredible machine that from all the possibilities, the more you know it and the more it returns incredible emotions. The AF is very respectable, if used with Sony or Zeiss lenses it is very precise and fast, obviously it is not an A9, but it was not born for this either. Perhaps the only weak point is the single AF. The ergonomics for me are fantastic, it will be that I have very thin and tapered hands, but to hold in my hand it is always perfect and well balanced. Even after hours of use, coming from a D7100 that after 10 minutes hurt the wrists, it does not even seem to have it in hand. The weight then, if compared to an SLR, is unparalleled. This machine with a fixed optics not too bulky becomes a jewel practically pocket-sized, something that for SLRs is unthinkable. Unbeatable value for money nowadays. On JPEGs I can not pronounce myself, I always use it in raw uncompressed and gives the best of itself, if you get a photo wrong here it is only the photographer's fault, the camera allows you to do everything. I always try to post-produce at a minimum and to have as much as possible the shot as I would already like it while shooting, but in case of error the RAW it produces allow you almost any correction. The fact that it then has 42mpx allows you to crop a lot and without seeing any drop in quality. It goes without saying that you crop from FF to APSC and shoot with a 20mm the ratio between the planes does not change, even if the lens becomes a 30mm, but doing so with a single lens you can afford more shots. The same goes for the crop phase in post production. If I went back, I would take her back with my eyes closed. The only thing that maybe will make me change it will be, when it has a much lower price than now, the new A7IV. Possibility also to make videos, obviously it is a photocentric and not videocentric camera, which means that it is a camera that also makes videos, not a camcorder that also takes photos as sony's A7S series can be, but in any case it does not disfigure even in those small souvenir videos that you want to do on some occasion. Charging via usb very useful. If you deactivate all the various aids such as HDR and the like, it is a machine that in Manual is great. Taking it to use it only in the car does not make much sense, but it is still a personal choice. It already has all the connectivity you need, such as WiFi, NFC and more, for many it can be a significant advantage. Raw to jpeg files weigh a lot and therefore allow you to make even very large prints. Overall it is from 9.5, for the 10 obviously the next ones are better and therefore it would be unfair to vote it with the maximum. Definitely super recommended, obviously if you have in mind what kind of photography you want to do sent on January 18, 2022 |
 | Tokina Firin 20mm f/2 FE AF Pros: Incredible flare resistance, bright, super price for use, thread, colors Cons: Bulk and autofocus Opinion: Exceptional optics!!! The only flaw can be the bulk when it is to be carried in the backpack (but it is very subjective as a thing), attached to the car does not even seem to have mounted it. Bought used at 450 € just out, the guy had lost the hood and so the super low price, and it is worth them all! Why choose the 20 instead of the 24? 4mm more on FF are many and the angle of view does not seem but changes a lot. I chose this one with AF instead of the manual because, even if in the landscapes it is practically useless, in the particular portraits made with the 20mm the autofocus has always been a hand. Autofocus perfect for photography but too noisy in video, you really hear a lot and sometimes a little slow in photos with AF-C. Vote? 9/10, if in a version two removed the noise of the autofocus would be from 10 and praise sent on December 21, 2021 |
 | Sigma SD Quattro Pros: RAW FILES!!!! The somewhat peculiar and very modern shape, the material of the body, the 30mm 1.4 sigma in kit but like all those of the art series, the comfort of interchangeable lenses and of course the FOVEON. If you have never tried this sensor do so, if you love photography try it, the sigma adapter that allows you to use SA lenses on sony mirrorless Cons: The fact that the SA attack is an end in itself, given that Sima has developed the L attack with the Leica etc, the cost of the new high (relative, if you have a thousand euros to spend do it with your eyes closed to keep as a second body), some write EVF and screen and can also stay there because it is very painful, but you pass it over quietly. Definitely the choice of proprietary software at the expense of a serious collaboration with Adobe with Lightroom Opinion: I was born in the era of the beginning of digital and my first car as a child was a coolpix in the early 2000s, but I also shot with my dad's films and reflexes. I found it by the way looking for more on Subito.it, I did two days of in-depth searches in the various blogs to see if it was worth the thought try and in the end I decided that the only way to understand its features was to buy it. Taken on Amazon because of the convenience of the return and I kept it a week. I also have an A7iii, before I had a D7100, I tried hyper bright fixed optics, poor and cheap zooms, both nikon and sony, but it was all so aseptic. Yes ok fantastic photos, incredible file workability etc etc, but the photo had no character, it didn't convey an emotion, it was just an image with a subject or a landscape inside. I was basically looking for the picture for a long time like foveon does without knowing the Foveon. That's why I tell you you have to buy it, you have to try it and try to look for the photos. It doesn't make 50-photo-per-second bursts, it doesn't have a viewfinder that finds a bird flying two kilometers away like Sony, it doesn't recognize your face in a quarter of a second like the Canon R5, but the question you really have to ask yourself is: do I need all this? Do you take only birdlife, formula 1, children running in parks and other situations where the AF of mirrorless obviously becomes essential? Don't you ever take a picture to treat her after years and relive the moment? After you take 30 pictures of the cat in 4 seconds what do you have left? This camera makes you understand the time, makes you think about the value of things thanks to only 200 battery shots, makes it clear that 50 photos are not needed (not on all occasions obviously) but 1-2 shots taken well and that transmit emotions. Balance of white from mediumformed, to iso 100 take photos that you did not think possible, INCREDIBLE colors, RAW files are a painting not a simple photo, all possible color yields, highlights and incredible material sensation and all this for "only" 1000€ including lens f/1.4. Of course it's not all gold this machine and the problems are varied: 9 focus points and an AF that could certainly be at least at the minimum acceptable levels like a nikon d7100 (and if you used it you know that we are talking about a very normal APSC of 4-500€), an attack that was not SA but one that can be used with a larger optical fleet, the program to process RAW that ONLY on an i9-9900k processor is fluid (and I write that processor because I have it) on a last type i5 forget to process photos, the price as I said but that is very personal, if it was at 700€ body with optics it would be to buy with your eyes closed. I made it only for the price that for my pockets, for a second body machine, is to be considered high for an object that does only a few things but does them excellently, I will certainly take a Sigma DP2 Quattro as a second body that costs much less although with a fixed optics and much more transportable having the same sensor and characteristics. CONCLUSIONS: Try it, you will love it. But remember, don't look on this iso machine over 200, it's like asking to rate a monkey for its swimming skills sent on March 26, 2021 |
