A7R & A7 User Thread! Let's gather here!


Big Beercan (75-300) and LA-EA4 adaptor adds alot of heft to the A7. Balance is perfectly fine. AF speed is fast and very accurate.

Unfortunately, I don't have a pic of the setup, and office firewall does not allow me to upload.

Mine's the mid-sized beercan. The 70-210

I actually prefer the more popular 70-210 rather than the 75-300, having used it ages ago on my old A850. Now regretting having sold all the old gear away, would surely come in handy in case I decide to get the A7/A7r. Just want to find out if the performance can be good enough on a 24/35mpx sensor, so I can go and hunt for a good copy after I get the cam.
 

have FD 20mm f2.8 and 50 f1.4. shopping on ebay to look for a adapter. pls share with us how is you FD 50mm f1.7 on A7

I uploaded couple of snaps this afternoon on my FD 50mm 1.8 ( my bad its not 1.7 as mentioned), you can go to the image thread to get a feel. I bought a cheap adapter from ebay previously as well. seems to work well.
 

that's a really big cannon lol! thanks for the pic.
It really isn't that big...."barrel" size is similar to M203 launcher... Camera body size is similar to the XD11... I may upload some comparison pics another day

that's nice to know. hope you can take a few shots with it to check out the image quality. it's gonna be an interesting combo if it works right.
 

ya interested hehe...some samples from the lens and of the lens + the sony wld be nice

Yes... the Canon FD 50mm f/1.2. Interested?
 

Mine is the newer version, or commonly known as the nFD version. It's a truer standard lens, which is 50mm. lol... Mine is much cleaner and newer than the one on auction, plus comes with original hood, haze filter and correct FD to NEX adapter. Better deal than that one on auction.

Bro, so kiasu post so big L lens pic? We know u r an L lens supporter. Haha
 

Hmm... I don't have the 55mm f1.2, so I can't make a comparison.

If I can still remember, mine is the version before Canon released the L version. Therefore, it is basically the same design but without the aspherical lens.
 

no la hehe just found the most convenient hotlink. size doesn't look big from my laptop leh keke

i am a firm supporter of Sigma lenses too
