I did also some experiments. And still do... :loco:I was trying to shoot a portrait outdoors and having no luck in continuous mode, but it all worked perfectly in single shot, including eye focus.
I need to experiment more before reaching any final conclusions.
I'm getting weaker Joe with age. You got my really good Loxia 50 to. Great copyWe've heard that before, and many of us are beneficiaries of breaking the now famous "Mancuso death grip". :ROTFL:

:thumbup:As I was driving I saw this scene, and it was far away, there was a fence by the highway and I couldn't get close. The longest reaching lens I had was the 85mm f/1.4 GM with the A7R II, so I shot it as a image is better then no image:
my focus point was the house in the center. Yup look at this 100% crop, a obvious AF disaster.
No chance in continous mode. There is no refocus between the shots. The FE 90/2.8 does this quite well (4 of 5 shots). For the 85GM I will use back button, single shot and AF-C priority to AF. With that I can do 2-3 pics per second, all in focus.I was trying to shoot a portrait outdoors and having no luck in continuous mode, but it all worked perfectly in single shot, including eye focus.

Vivek, I just thought of that too, thanks. They will have one in stock next week so this may work out. Going to India for a wedding and despite all my protests I've been asked to do some 'candids' and such. You know how that goes......Pradeep, Reserve one at lensrentals.
It's in stock since release: http://www.digifuchs.ch/index.php?ssid=79443079ae735b670c68d6994e3e15c5&advised_product=22565Anybody know about availability of the 24-70 GM lens? I am in desperate need of one, my order has been in for a few months already with my dealer. Need it for a wedding in the family in two weeks.
If anybody has one and is willing to sell, or knows of one in stock somewhere please do PM me.
Thanks much.

Thanks, I checked the store, it is of course more expensive, that is to be expected. Let me see what I can do with lensrentals for now.It's in stock since release: http://www.digifuchs.ch/index.php?ssid=79443079ae735b670c68d6994e3e15c5&advised_product=22565
The flight to zurich is around 8 hours.
They do also deliver abroad. But it's a small company with only one store and Switzerland has a very small VAT (6.5% which is included in the listed price). So, I don't know how easy it will be to process it and how much it will cost in the end. The store itself is fine and trustworthy.
