Anyone have direct experience with the Sony A Mount 70-400 II zoom on the A7RII? I have read reports that it does not work at all in Lock On AF-C mode with the LA-EA3 Adaptor, but that it does work in that mode using the LA-EA4 adaptor and Contrast Detect AF (no Phase Detect AF), though not great.
Thanks.
I own the A7r2 and the 70-400G2 and LAEA3 adapter and have been using them with excellent results.
The AF is quick and accurate but no tracking is possible.
The AF-C only works in either single shot or low speed continuous modes, not in the 5fps high speed mode.
I have not tried the contrast detection option at all.
As I said, results are excellent but, at 2 fps, and without tracking, it is not a sports camera. Although, I was quite happily shooting surfers.
It is, naturally, a different experience than the 15fps I get from my NX1.
