sony_cfexpress_tough_g_128gb

Pros: Reliable, robust, guaranteed speed.

Cons: nobody

Opinion: I've been using them for a long time now, the Sony G-Tough CFexpress since I had the Canon R5, while the SDs have been on the Sony G-Tough pretty much since I've been on the market. Never had a problem, always had great performance, for me they are the best boards that are on the market, for robustness, speed and reliability. I often hear that CFexpress costs too much, just compare them to the best SDs around, to realize that the price difference is not as big as you think. I recommend them with your eyes closed, you will not be disappointed. No burst problems on canon R5, or on the now sold Sony a9-II, on the latter of course with 2 Sony G-Tough 64Gb SDs. I personally use the 128Gb cut, not making videos for me is the best option.

sony_fe1-4xSony FE 1.4x

Pros: Flawless construction, size, weight, tropicalization.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I use it exclusively with the 100-400 on Sony A7-III when I need more range, the quality it returns is almost the same as smooth, with the only exception for the loss of brightness but it is obvious, the weight the compactness the fact of being tropicalized are all Plus! The price is a little high is true, but it is fully reflected in what it offers so I would say more than justified, never in any of the brands I have owned over the years I have found the features i have found on this little gem, is it a saviolinata? it is but for true merits established in the field, which in my opinion are worth more than a thousand laboratory tests. I certainly recommend it to anyone who needs more scope with their goals.

sony_fe100-400ossSony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS

Pros: Light, crisp, MAF accuracy, minimum MAF distance, MAF speed, no AC, Excellent even with TC 1, 4X (in my case), tropicalized.

Cons: Nobody so far

Opinion: I own it recently but I'm already ready to give my judgement on this wonderful telephoto lens. We Start from the construction that I find not at all Plasticose, but made from excellent materials, the lens hood is plastic or plastic material however robust, I think it was conceived so to make it as light as possible, under this point of view Sony has made Center, the hood itself frontally has a good rubber ring, so that if you need to lean the optics upside down will be protected by the same, there is also a window to handle any filters. The responsiveness and accuracy of the MAF is amazing, no mistake a shot, coupled with my A7III has allowed me to do avifauna seriously with the system mirrorless and with results for me excellent. Excellent the minimum distance of MAF that allows very close shooting of the subjects, totally devoid of AC. It Has a clutch ring for very useful zooming which you can loosen or tighten as needed. The fact of being a zoom makes it really versatile, is multifaceted with 2 TC designed precisely for this tele in addition to the 70-200, I personally have multiplied with the TC 1, 4X to avoid making it excessively dark, I think is the best compromise. The quality from multiplied is almost identical, but allowing to shoot more distant subjects that would not be smooth in range, I recommend without a doubt even in sports, will not disappoint your expectations I am sure.

sony_fe24-105_f4ossSony FE 24-105mm f/4 G OSS

Pros: Build quality, image quality, Fast and quiet AF, excellent range of focal lengths.

Cons: Wide Zoom Stroke.

Opinion: I took this lens in anticipation of a trip, for which my 24-70 would have been a bit short. I feared for the image quality, given the excellent copy of my 24-70 really a razor, but in the end I have to say that I was very happy with this 24-105, the sharpness is excellent here too, the weight is not excessive, The stabilizer works fine and is in good Substance a great handyman on my A7-III. The blur is very pleasant, sharp angle to corner, surely I have not regretted the change, I recommend it to anyone who wants a zoom from the excellent performance without spending excessively, surely not disappoint.

samyang_14Samyang 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC Aspherical

Pros: Sharpness, price, colors.

Cons: The filters...

Opinion: I know the Samyang optics, I also use them in Fuji with extreme satisfaction, have very affordable costs and return really good images. So switched to Sony, I decided again to buy one, I needed an ultra-bright corner for night photos, the choice fell on this 14mm. I'm very happy, I appreciate the sharpness and colors that returns, I own it for a very short time but I'm sure I will not have to change my positive review.

sony_fe85_f1-8Sony FE 85mm f/1.8

Pros: Price, sharpness, colours, tropicalization, dedicated key configurable.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I start by saying that it is worth every cent maybe even more, we are faced with a small masterpiece of Sony home in fact, is lightweight fast and accurate, with excellent colors and sharpness, the blurred despite it is an F1,8 is really nice. The construction appears solid and with good quality materials, excellent key for the block of the MAF. The color rendition is great, accustomed to the colors Fuji I can say that this does not disfigure at all. Also excellent with the Eye-AF follows that it is a marvel even in conditions of light not optimal. I repeat for what it costs you can not really attribute flaws, indeed...

sony_zeiss24-70_f4Sony FE 24-70mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario Tessar T*

Pros: Quality of materials, sharpness, colours, tropicalization, stabilization

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I have this lens from 1 month more or less, I have to say unlike the negative reviews, which I think is a very good lens. Sharp, with superb colors, light, stabilized, weather sealed, I made several photographs even at 24mm where someone said to be unusable even! Well I'm the exact opposite, there is the distortion to 24 mm is true but solvable with a click. The overall quality in my specimen is excellent sharpness included, paid €900 new, I can only feel satisfied. I use it with great satisfaction on my A7-III the Af is accurate and fast as well as silent, if I have to find a flaw frankly at the moment I do not find.

samyang_8fisheye_f2-8_iiSamyang 8mm f/2.8 UMC Fisheye II

Pros: Cost, very compact and sturdy, bright and large angle of field.

Cons: No view quality/price.

Opinion: I have this lens for a few months now, I never wanted to hear about the optical fish, well I had to reconsider... this little Samyang stunned me, you get great photographs with an impressive angle of field, the quality Image is very good and is also very bright, is not excluded a test even at night, I'm really happy, the distortion on the ML is visible in real time both in the viewfinder and in the display, this helps a lot in the process of shooting, excellent really and happy to have it buys is the only Samyang optics of my kit currently in use on my Fujifilm T-20 and H-1 ML.

fujifilm_x-t20Fujifilm X-T20

Pros: Rugged body, lightweight, touchscreen with AF touch, X Trans III sensor, ISO seal, ready to use JPG ...

Cons: Battery life is low, but just buy a pair compatible, so it's not a real counter.

Opinion: I came from many reflexes possessed over the years and various brands, the last was the Canon 5D Mark III ... I was undecided between the Sony a6300 and the T20, finally I chose Fuji, to have a superior optical drive, though Pretty expensive, but since the first thing I was looking for in my first ML was the QI ... rnAlso I like most users, I wanted to rationalize the kit, to have a camera that would allow me not to get tired at the end of the day ... i am fortunate to have small hands say Nipponico style, so for me the size problem of the T20 does not exist, it is a really good mirrorless, lightweight compact and discreet, I personally bought the "silver" version gives it no doubt A very vintage style that I like very much.rn I took it to the 18-55 optics from the indisputable quality, in fact I think the latter, already great for many of everyday uses, the sensor quality is really high, they go out File a lot Detailed with many shades on the colors, forNot to mention the choice of the Emulation of the various Fuji films, for many who, like I used them in the golden times of photography, are a must have, jpg files that come out almost never need adjustments, Various menus are very intuitive and customizable, the car holds the ISO that is a beauty, the autofocus is very fast and includes up to 325 points af, just like the older sister from which it comes, the T2 from which it also inherited the sensor As well as the af module. The lack of the joystick (which some complain about) for the selection of af points is easy to navigate, customizing one of the 4 arrows of the directional keys, activating the function and moving the point af through the 4 directional buttons without ever loosening it 'Eye from the viewfinder, facial eye recognition mode works very well, the video compartment is great not at T2 level, however, the latter has more options for video professionals, they are very sodDefeated of the choice made and I do not regret having abandoned a car like the 5D Mark III for this little Fuji. From a very satisfied user I can not recommend it, but remember to handle it with your own hands before buying it, it is not suitable for all hands, although the handgrip is for sale for a few euros, which also solves this problem for those with hands great.

canon_5d3Canon 5D Mark III

Pros: AF lightning speed and precise handling high ISO awesome, sealing and strength, dual memory card slots.

Cons: To date, none.

Opinion: Using Canon SLR for years now but this is my first FF, in fact, come from the 7D, the control layout very similar to the latter, I did find right the first time, holding in his hand he has a wonderful sense of strength, the 'AF of the 7D I found it very good, this is even another planet, does not miss a beat, fast hook that is a pleasure and not give more, many AF modes this make life easier for the photographer for every need, the 61 points then are a boon, the side steps also function flawlessly, even at high ISO quality astounded me, you can really take high-quality photos with very little available light, I think I can say without a doubt that Canon This reflex has really made the center, a camera suitable for everyone, including sports photographers and photo hunting, the flurry of 6fps is more than enough, it is certainly not the machine gun of the 1D IV, but I 6fps enough, it is true that do not have the crop factor of the APS-C so someone storcerà nose on this point, but the machine also allows crop very driven, so for me it is also excellent in this regard. I did a quick test video, again the 5D Mark III has left me open-mouthed, clean and smooth video, possibility of increasing the ISO at will with a final quality of the video absurd! I do not regret the purchase at all, that I would do it with my eyes closed, I recommend it to everyone from landscapers to fotonaturalisti, no doubt you will be surprised by this amazing reflex.

canon_50_f1-4Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Pros: Sharpest, lightweight and discreet, very bright, fast and quiet AF.

Cons: Lack of the hood as standard.

Opinion: Great lens for street reportage on FF, as well as for portraits. The objective is particularly small and light, good wide open, but closing a little becomes a real razor, great colors that gives the AF is accurate and silent, the 8 aperture blades give a good blurred, The cost is not very high, so I would recommend it highly to anyone in preference to younger brother is to build quality for optical quality, for AF, really slow and noisy that of 1, 8. The only drawback is the lens hood is not supplied, then that must be purchased separately, however, strongly recommend the purchase of the latter.

canon_17-40Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0 L USM

Pros: Sealed, AF, Construction, Sharpness, Value for money, resistance to flare.

Cons: Noticeable distortion at 17mm easily corrected, soft corners on FF especially.

Opinion: I have this lens for a short time, but now I have appreciated the qualities, resistance to flare is excellent, as well as the sharpness, it is true that the edges become soft, but just close the aperture a bit and the problem disappears. I purchased it for my 5D Mark II as a handyman, although the range of focal lengths is not particularly foam are enthusiastic, but especially for the landscape, the colors that returns are superb, the AF is lightning equal to that of 16 - 35 II, the cost is much lower than the latter, but it is not quality, of course, if you need an aperture of f/2.8 to force the choice falls on the 16-35. For the rest has nothing to envy to the latter. It is also lightweight, it is a pleasure to use even for a whole day!

sigma_85_f1-4Sigma 85mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM

Pros: Sharpness, Bokeh excellent, affordable price compared to offers!

Cons: AF is not lightning but precise, suffers from purple fringing to f / 2.8 out of stark contrasts.

Opinion: So much glass! 77mm in diameter are felt in terms of weight, nevertheless remains very manageable, already superlative sharpness wide open at f / 1.4. The construction is superb, I do not mind even the finish. Bokeh creamy and smooth, a joy to behold, processing PP is reduced to a few simple steps, because the lens gives excellent shots (at least on my 7D) From taken into account and not cheap, is supplied with a lens for two versions, simple extension for FF and APS-C, although the extension becomes cumbersome, I have not ever used it so far and the pictures seem good even so! Given the cost of the competition and the quality of this Sigma lens gives, I feel fully satisfied! Really recommended!

canon_30dCanon 30D

Pros: Lightweight, durable, excellent dynamic range, excellent even at high ISO

Cons: small screen, AF is not always accurate.

Opinion: I had and used the 30D for several years, with the 30D I made some memorable shots, the AF was good, not like my current 7D, but it was efficient, the shots that I got with the 30D needed a few touches and were ready, thanks to the density of small sensor that was really great. It is definitely one of the best Canon APS-C that you can still find on the used market for a few hundred euro, suitable for a start!

canon_7dCanon 7D

Pros: AF precise and lightning-fast course with the right optics, excellent dynamic range and resolution, 8 fps, full HD video, in my opinion the best APS-C Canon has ever offered, and at a very advantageous price!

Cons: Certainly improved the performance at high ISO, which still remains manageable until 3200.

Opinion: I replaced my 30D with the 7D, well the leap has been truly remarkable, a burst really fast, just looking for without having to spend but inflated figures for my pocket! 18 megapixels (which allows very large prints) and the crop factor of 1.6 X are great for photo hunting, I tested the 7D for the macro and also in this field is quite remarkable, with right lenses eg. 8-16 sigma or 10-22 canon is also wonderful for landscape, recently I'm using for portraiture with a sigma 85 f / 1.4 (which replaced the excellent Canon 85 f / 1.8) the results are truly excellent ! I can say without a doubt that this 7D widely covers the needs of any user, even PRO, in the field of Canon APS-C in my opinion has no equal.
