Official Sony A7 or A7r discussion thread

[Thoth]

oooo yeah.... i managed to get it to work now. had to click on the halfcases section to buy instead of the "pre-order" banner as the banner brings you to the korean page.

i guess it doesnt make sense to do a mass order since just 3 cases will reach usd 318, or almost sgd 400 which is at the limit of the gst charges. i simply ordered 3 cases at one go to avoid shipping charges. black brown tan (orange). Can just decide to let go of 2 cases depending on which case i prefer to keep after examining in real life in hand haha.

U ordered? Which one r u keeping? Interested to get it from u once u receive it.

 

[Skyways]

Haha I really gave the display A7R a good run, including putting in my own SD card. Very tempted to put the money down but didn't in the end. U see, the problem is I already have a great "wife" (the M9) with a happy family of "kids" (M lenses). Falling in love with the shiny sweet young thing in the A7R is potentially disruptive to happy family life hahaha!!

Gotta think about it a little more.....

M9 is a great "wife". Dun cheat on her, bro. Haha... Probably U might wanna look at upgrading to M240 instead... Seems the M lenses perform better on the native body.

just preordered the A7 with kit lens from sony center in duty free section of changi airport.. can skip the GST..

may i know if this macro extension tube will work with aperture control and auto focussing? - http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/Meike-Auto-Macro-Focus-Extension-Tube-Metal-for-Sony-NEX-E-Mount-NEX-5-6-7-5R-3N-/330996260746?pt=US_Lens_Adapters_Mounts_Tubes&hash=item4d10ea1f8a

Haha ya I am seeing all these purple corners with M lenses.... Though one of e reason I am considering the a7 series is because the 35 f2.8 looks small, and I think small AF primes are very possible with this system.
