    How to trigger AR7II wirelessly & remotely when shooting tethered?

    This seems to be the perfect solution, I don't know why Sony themselves have not provided it. Could anyone please confirm if this can do Liveview with Sony CaptureRemote Or Capture One?

    GM Lenses

    How do you find transitioning from Phase Arca (I assume Rm3di) system to Sony? I'm thinking of the opposite. I have a MFDB SLR system and also a compact Sony E system, however I keep wondering about getting into technical camera and lenses for the ultimate wide angle performance. For wide...

    What is the best compact lens for A7x in 24-28mm focal range?

    Thank you, but the stickies are quite overwhelming atm, I'm trying to ask a specific question (compact lens, 24-28mm) but I will go through those stickies at one point. Sony and Zeiss really need to sit down and work it out two road maps. One is for compact, high performance BUT slow lenses (I...

    What is the best compact lens for A7x in 24-28mm focal range?

    Thanks everybody. Yes I'm aware of options for native lenses. What about lenses from other systems that can be adapted onto E mount? I guess the ideal candidate would come from Leica, as SLR need quite a bulky adapter already. Contax G also has short flange distance however wide lenses from...

    What is the best compact lens for A7x in 24-28mm focal range?

    I'm trying to build a compact E mount system with both native and adapted lenses. However I'm struggling a little bit to decide what is the best lens in the 24-28mm focal range. Of course the 25mm Batis is the quality benchmark, however it's still a little big and heavy. Do we have an smaller...

    Techart adapter and Contax G question

    The behaviour is quite different: In DMF mode for native AF lenses, you half press the shutter for AF, and you need to keep this half press in order to fine tune using MF. And when fine tuning using MF, you can only have MF assist, not focus magnifier. In AF-S mode for Contax lenses, you half...

    Techart adapter and Contax G question

    Yes thanks Cindy, I just figured that out too. I need to touch the wheel a little bit then I can magnify it. Quite a strange implementation but it works.

    Techart adapter and Contax G question

    Hi everyone, Got my Techart at last. Is it possible to have Focus Assist/Magnifier when fine tuning focus manually with the wheel? MF Focus Assist On doesnt give me anything, when Focus Magnifier custom setting "not available in Single Shot AF (only focus mode allowed)"

    Is there a firmware coming for A7r that enable Liveview tethering and Picture Profile

    The A7rII is really a fantastic camera, however for what I do, I don't need all new features, but mostly the Liveview tethering and the Picture Profile. Do you think A7r can have these features with a firmware update, or is there a hardware limitation? Of course whether Sony wants to do it is...

    Sony A7r, how to connect cable release and tethering at the same time?

    Hi, I got a gig that I need to connect the Sony A7r to a machine to trigger shutter release automatically at certain interval, and at the same time tether the camera to a computer to transfer and process the RAW images, also semi-automatically. However there is only one port on the Sony A7r...
