Kolarivision took a look inside the Sony A7cR and this is their conclusion: According to our lead camera technician, the Sony A7CR can be rated as a 3/10 in terms of difficulty, with one being the least difficult and ten being the most.
At the NABshow Viltrox displayed the 135mm f/1. 8 FE autofocus lens. They still did not disclose the exact release date and pricing of the lens. But here you can see the lens mounted on the Sony A7cR.
500mm f/5. 6 at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FotoErhardt, Calumet, WexUK. SonyAlphaBlog tested the Sigma 500mm lens and concluded: The Sigma 500mm F5. 6 DG DN Sports (3200 euros) is an excellent lens and a very good news for animal shooters.
Laowa 10mm f/2.8 at BHphoto, Adorama, Venusoptics, FotoErhardt, Fotokoch, WexUK. A very unique and cool lens from Laowa!
Generation Z is buying the Fujifilm X100VI and other Fujifilm cameras because of the look but also mainly because of the built-in film styles. I do believe Sony could match or ever beat Fuji on this playground.
The Sony A1 still holds up well against the Nikon Z9 even if it’s an older camera. Now we can all wonder what the upcoming Sony A1II will be able to do ;)
The lens is available at Amazon and BHphoto. SonyAlphaBlog concluded: The Viltrox 27mm F1. 2 (600 euros) is another gem from Viltrox. Its unusual focal length (40mm equivalent) is a bit narrower than a 23mm (=35mm equivalent).
500mm f/5.6 at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FotoErhardt, Calumet, WexUK. Matt Granger’s new setup guide is now available for preorder at Learn.mattgranger.com.
Bill Claff from PhotonsToPhotos measured the Sony A9III dynamic range and there are quite some surprising aspects: Except of the Base ISO 100 and the ISO 8000 the A9III is more or less on par with the previous A9II in terms of dynamic range performance It also beats the Nikon Z8 at any ISO except…
Sony A9III at BHphoto. Amazon. Adorama. FotoErhardt. ThePhoBlographer reviewed the A9III and focused particularly on the Flash photography aspect: By far, the Sony a9 III is the single best camera that Sony has made thus far.
Above you can watch Matt Granger’s review of the new Sony A9III. And ThePhoBlographer reports about a “Sony a9 III Secret Setting You Need to Know About”: It’s called Flash Timing Setting — and it’s something others haven’t talked about.

ZV-E1 at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama. We always show too little love for Sony’s ZV series. So let’s share some positive feedback from Philip Bloom ;)
Recently Sony updated the Creator’s APP and there are some nice improvements. See video on top! Sony will release a firmware update for many new Alpha cameras so that they will have full support for the APP!
CineD put the Sony A9III to rigorous testing and the conclusion is quite a surprise: The Sony Alpha 9 III displays fantastic results in our lab test. Rolling shutter by the very nature of the global shutter design is non-existent (effectively 0ms) – the best we have and will ever see for full-frame sensors. It…

It’s clear from his test that the lossless compressed RAW option is the way to go if you want to clear the buffer as fast as it gets. While compress RAW will give you the possibility to shoot more frames but buffer clearing takes much longer.

Our reader Edde Burgess got his new Sony A9III and used his old and slow Sandisk 8GB 30MB/s SD card to see how long i would take to clear the buffer: I jumped on the front porch and shot a bird at the feeder on Hi+ 248 photos that took 6 minutes 15 seconds to…
Image of the Viltrox 135mm f/1.8 FE LAB lens Viltrox will release three new autotofocus E-mount lenses in the next couple of months: AF135mm F1.8 LAB AF56mm F1.7 AF40mm F2.5 The images below are shot with the new 135mm FE lens which will be also their first “LAB” branded lens.

Opticallimits tested the lens and concluded: Overall, it’s an attractive package with evolutionary progress in image quality and revolutionized macro capability … but it’s also extensive for what it is. Still, highly recommended!
Dpreview tested the Sony ZV-1 Mark II and concluded The video-centric Sony ZV-1 Mark II has excellent rolling shutter, industry-leading autofocus and a very nice selfie-friendly zoom lens, but runs into issues with short battery life and flat out-of-camera audio.
Sony A9III at BHphoto. Amazon. Adorama. FotoErhardt. Fotokoch. Calumet. WexUK. Just like Gerald Undone also Dan Watson was surprised to see that the A9III image quality is actually really good!

PcMag reviewed the A9III and concluded: The camera is tuned for speed, both in terms of performance and capture rate, with 120fps Raw drive and an autofocus system that’s a little more advanced than that from Canon or Nikon.
At last also Amazon confirmed the A9III preorders will ship out on February 8th. Store links: Sony A9III at BHphoto. Amazon. Adorama. FotoErhardt. Fotokoch. Calumet. WexUK. Sony 300mm at BHphoto.

PCmag reviewed the lens anc concluded: The Sony FE 300mm F2. 8 GM OSS telephoto lens backs its lofty price with a rare combination of superlative picture quality and quick focus in an exceptionally light frame.
In my opinion Tony made a fair assessment. And as we learned from Gerald Undone there seems to be enough flexibility to improve the IQ even further in post production. In the era of pixel peepers we sometimes forget that Image Quality is now super on basically any new camera you buy. The real difference…
BI collected a couple of youtubers reaction on the new Sony FX6/FX3/FX30 firmware announcement (original article here). And now I am going to share my own key thoughts: Getting the FX30/FX3 firmware update in September can only mean one thing: Sony felt the pressure from the community to develop consistent new firmware updates. But they…

Click on images to see it: 2) No more artifacts! Everything is straight…

I think most of the people still underestimate the power of the Sony A9III when it comes to video. So I am happy to see that Jeven Dovey posted this video today where he clearly made this point. What he did not mention is that you don’t have any issues anymore with many classic video…
Gerald Undone did a Sony A9III image test and actually discovered a way to gain Dynamic Range: It appears the Sony A9III has a different more “RAW” noise level (in video) than other Sony cameras like the Sony A7IV.

Dpreview tested the A9III and certified what I told you first here on SAR 2-3 days after the Sony A9III announcement (see my videos about this here and here).

It’s stunning how photo realistic the images have become! I now tested the new features and applied some Provia styles to create images you can hardly distinguish from real photos!
