Sony FE 20mm f/1.8 G

Pros: Definition, colour rendering, coma tightness

Cons: Focus breathing

Opinion: Used mainly for astrophotography and occasionally for landscaping, it gave me the impression of being very valid. Definition and resistance to flare and reference aberrations. The only thing to report is a very marked zoom effect during focusing, particularly noticeable at the minimum focusing distance. Used on A7C it is well balanced and with excellent portability.

Sony A7C

Pros: AF, Colors, Sensor, Weight, Operating Speed, Construction

Cons: Shutter, Flash, a single C key, Intrusive Picture Styles on color tones

Opinion: First Sony camera, then understandable initial bewilderment in the menus, solved in a short time. Alas, there are several headaches left for the setting of the picture style, whose colors do not satisfy me in the in-camera JPEGs (I tinked a week abundantly, I'm still not satisfied, I'll try with picture profiles). Once I set up MyMenu and Menu Fn I reached a more than satisfactory operating speed, even with the relatively few function keys (to overcome the problem I use the rec key as "C2"). AF nn misses a beat, even with child moving indoors with little light, and the tracking is extremely effective on the eyes, hooks practically always. The quality of the images amazed me with ISO 12800 usable for A4 prints where the noise is not noticed or almost, with the Dynamic Range Optimizer function very effective (to be a function on highlights works in an exemplary way), and with the level of detail in general. The zoned light meter on high contrasts tends to overexpose by 1 or 2 thirds of a stop, but with zebra + exp correction ring everything is arranged "on the fly" and always brings home excellent results. Note a bit 'out of tune is the white balance in some cases (especially sunset / sunrise and blue and gold times) in which it is not very precise in standard but you have to set priority to white. The touch screen makes up for the lack of joystic, indeed, I find it much more effective and intuitive and personally I do not miss the touch on the menus that govern more than well with rings and multicontrollers. Reference operating autonomy, with a battery you practically make a complete tourist day. I have joined it for now at 24-105mm and 20mm f/1.8 taking advantage of the double cashback, in addition to the excellent optics in the kit. Price a little too high, but with the compactness / performance ratio I went to replace 2 machines and practically 2 lens parks with only 1.
