Ronny, why don't you compare the AF of your camera with his using the same lens. So, do the comparison under the same conditions and using the same "target". Since we are talking about native lenses here, I am sure yours will be able to AF OK. And if you guys find out that his is doing worse than yours, then you know for sure that there is something wrong with his. I assume that you guys are local from each other in this case.

Very nice Werner

If you are both using the same lens and camera, you may also want to swap lenses between you to run some further testing to see if you are getting the same or almost the same results as for the first comparison.

Thank you Ronny! Both were shot with the A7II and the Canon 24-70 f2.8 L II.

Ronny here is a Wedding pro who has been using the r2 alot:
"Sony A7R2 low light autofocus:
Sadly it doesn’t perform as well as a DSLR in low light. Focusing is good. But it’s really not up to the job in low light. Lots of hunting and plenty of out of focus shots. I would not want to photograph the bride walking down the aisle in the church with it, or any key moments that happen in poor light."
http://albertpalmerphotography.com/for-photographers/sony-a7rii-review-from-a-wedding-photographer/

I've read complaints in other places also, but there are others claiming it's great. Maybe there is an issue with the body in your case. Reading more specific reviews: the r2 is better in low light than all previous A7x. In tracking it's still behind the DSLRs, but for non-moving subjects this guys was getting good low light AF with FE55

And here DPR seems to confirm Bob, Rene, and Werner's view (and includes the 35/1.4):

yeah there's nothing like getting up close and personal and step into deer poop, which is exactly what I did when I took this shot

This is a crap shot, I know...but I just wanted to post because it shows the qualities of the EF 100/2 so well, and I'm really enjoying this lens on the A7 II. Very sharp and gorgeous bokeh.

An impromptu astrophotography 1½ hours after purchasing the 50/1.1 Nokton. As the aberrations show, it's not really suited for the challenges of starry sky, but I'm pretty happy still.. 24 Geminids in half an hour:

Hi guys ..
Need tips and help ..
Have a friend who just bought Sony A7R II and Fe 35 f1.4 and Batis 85 1.8
He has big trouble with AF in low light .. it does not lock
Sometimes he think it as AF stop completely
even outdoors in better light has FE 35 not wanted to lock and has been hunting

Need some advice
Could it be something wrong with the camera?
Wrong settings?
does not feel that it would be wrong on two lenses (all the stuff is new)
How do you feel that Batis 85 1.8 Fe 35 f1.4 and A7R II AF in

Hi Ronnie. Superb series!! The AF is terrible on the video, and I also have not experienced this issue. I would suggest as Joshua has mentioned, that for low light do not use the small flexible point. This does slow down the AF in low light in particular. If he retests the central region only, I think he will find completely different AF performance. If not there is a definite problem.

Wow! Was that half an hour wide open at f/1.1? Looks pretty good to me.


Taken with A7r and Leica WATE - most likely at 16mm.
