I carried the Peak Design Sling 5L and inside the A7R III, FE 24/1.4 GM, CV 40/1.2, ZM 85/4 and RRS mini tripod. The body had the very thin Markins L-bracket and it all fit perfectly.


Fred, what was your experience pairing the 24/1.4 and CV40 in your bag on the trip? Did you favor one lens or the other? Personally, I would think with some cropping, the 24 might just stay on my camera instead of swapping for the 40. I have the 40/1.2, but I have been tempted to go for the GM lens for AF. That said... shooting the 40/1.2 is just dang fun

Is this the tripod? I’m very interested in it as an ultraportable solution for when I’d never have a tripod otherwise.

I have mine with the RRS BC-18 Micro-ball head. It fits anywhere. Love it.

Yes, that's the one. It's pricey but IMO worth every penny when packing light.
I also use the very thin Markins L-bracket when traveling. It allows me to use the camera in portrait orientation when using the tripod:

I'm not sure if the 24/1.4 GM replaces the CV 40/1.2 Nokton. It's a different look and although you can crop the 24mm file, it does not look quite the same. I really like carrying 24/40/85.

I was thinking of getting this lens for food photography and this makes me hopeful that it will work nicely.

Cropping the 1.4/24 to 40mm gives you a roughly f2.2 40mm equivalent with maybe 16MP if you have a 42MP sensor.
It’s thats fine for your needs go for it. But the f2.2 DOF will obviously look very different from f1.2.

First test shot with 24 GM.
This thing is light, and extremely hand-holdable.
