Hi All,
Just curious of anyones experience with and of these combos?
I've used various view cameras over the years fairly regularly in the studio. Lots of product photography.
I understand the pros and cons of each systems range of movements, etc. Will be shooting tethered to C1 most of the time.
Currently have an Actus DB for use with my IQ100 back...works pretty well.
Looking for a second setup to use with my Sony A7R III system.
There's two routes I'd consider going:
Option 1 - Newer style Canon TS-E lenses. 17mm, 24mm II, new 90mm II, 135mm. With the Metabones or Sigma adapter
Option 2 - Actus adapter with high quality Rodenstock (I have a 90mm HR and 72mm APO currently) or Schneider lenses.
Just hoping someone out there uses one of these options fairly regularly with no odd issues.
If the canon lenses work great (no weird color casts, micro lens issues, etc.), I might prefer this route. When I was a Canon shooter, I was impressed with the current gen TS-E lenses. I'm hoping they play well with the Sony.
I plan to do some renting and testing...but if one of these options is not ideal I'll cross it off the list.
Thanks!
