  1. Thanks for the review! I sold my 5d mkii two days ago and ordered the a7 last night. How do you like the 28-70 lens? (not sure if you have it) I'd like to have at least one AF lens and that one can be had fairly cheap. I see people taking the rear baffles out of the sigma 30mm 2.8 to make it work on a full frame...but there's still the issue of having to fix the vignette in spot. I guess not a big deal but the 28-70 would be more versatile. 

     

    Yo welcome to the world of versatility, not sure if i have replied you this question. 

     

    The 28-70 would be a general lens not a bad lens you can use them for travel, all the AF for Sony lenses i presume are good as well. It's a good range to consider using for travel purposes.

     

    Anwyays quick update for me, I sold off my 35mm f/1.4 from Voigt, couldn't bare with distortion so badly, I opted the Loxia 50mm f/2, 

    gotta say its as sharp as a Leica lens not kidding for a cheaper price range, so far so happy, can't wait to test out the lens when i'm in Brisbane next week. 

     

    Till then! cheers! 

  2. Anyone shooting the Sony A7? I want the full frame but I never take my 5d2 out anymore due to the size and weight.

     

    All my photos posted here are with the Sony A7 + Voigtlander 35mm f/1.4 

     

    The A7 is bloody light and for the price of full frame, i dont know but to me its the cheapest full frame body you can find for a retail price, got mine after A7II release which makes price lowered. Happy with it. More money for designer stuff at the same time owning the camera.

     

    Yeah I used to own 5DMarkII didn't find it practical even to use as travel, had to hung around body and knocking people around afraid someone might just rob me by cutting off my strap, and its bloody heavy after one day usage. I find it tough shooting in street where its so obvious everyone be pissed at you for shooting them. 

     

    The A7 is pretty much stealthy its like the Leica M240 *Sorry, personal opinion* , i love how this small camera can do almost everything but the shutter's abit noisy. So street wise you gotta be smarter a little hah! 

     

    For choices of lens, this year is good year, where Sony will be releasing more AF lenses, likewise how market complained about lack of lenses. But if you don't mind you can just get some cheap adapter and pair with every lens but manual focus it yourself and if you have extra money get the metabones adapter. 

     

     

    Everything is my personal opinion about this camera and from my knowledge of shooting. I don't really research about technicalities of how a camera color and whatsoeever!
