Hope the pricing of these lenses motivates Tamron, Tokina and Sigma to start making FE mount for all of their lenses.

IMO Sony did not come out with a flagship successor to the Nex7 yet because it is giving Nikon time to benefit fully from marketing its new D-500 without direct competition. With more and more...

I'm also waiting for the Nex7 successor...

The article was very interesting and informative. Thanks a lot. Happy Sony is making this run at excellence. Looking forward to the ratings these lenses get at dxo.

Thank goodness falling in love is still in style.

We keep having newer better cameras come out because technology is moving so rapidly. IMHO there is no end in sight, and that's a good thing. I started into the ILC stuff about four years ago ---...

Nice article, and love the quality and tone of the discussion. The different companies have their different strengths; Don't know about top three, but I hope the dedication of Fuji to aps-c and iq...

Thanks for this reference. Folks. This guy tested the d-5 for Nikon shooting bears in Alaska, and many birds and other animals in the Falkland Islands and South Georgia. Go see the site just for...

It's not unfortunate that there are lots of us amateurs who buy the cameras too...the volume we buy helps finance the cutting edge technologies that help you. In fact if pros are so much smarter...

Pete: Interesting. I will look at it and compare once both cameras are out and available.

Pete: Agree with you 100%; Different from you I'm just a semi-retired guy who takes a lot of pictures, and can afford good cameras. For me the new camera will be great with faster, more accurate...

Ultimately the D500 question will be whether the sum total of all its technology adds up to better pictures... comparing the D5500 and 5200 and 5300 predecessors, which are, by the way, great...

So you don't just shoot -.7 like everyone else does?

Made the jump to using raw files. But now neither Sony's Play Memories, nor any of my older versions of Photoshop and Dxomark editors work, and I can't update them because my computer operating...

@Noflashplease. I like your full comment. But my conclusion is the opposite: Is it not wonderful that we have evidently reached the point where the technologically available resolution is not...

DPR Staff:
Just want to add my Merry Christmas wishes to you folks too. It has been a wonderful year for photography made better by you folks' efforts. So thanks for a good year.

Squareshot: You may be sad about paying now but once you have the camera in your hands, you will never look back. Every new thing you try, you discover there are possibilities you never even...

I agree with ekaton, but with the following comments: Even though the Nex7 lenses do work, and do give you wider field of vision than on the Nex 7, quickly I became dissatisfied with them because...

I had the LAEA4 with my Sony A7r. It is very different. The LAEA3 focuses based on the camera's focus; the LAEA4 replaces the camera's focus with its own. I got Tamron's new 24-70 to go with the...

Best adapter is Sony's LAEA3 which works with Sony A mount lenses, or third party lenses made for A mount. Many third party lenses (I have Tamrons, work with it also, but lack the eye focus...
