More with the 45i, it is glued to my A7iii
Yes, AF is not great, low percentage of keepers. Still it works good enough for me and IQ & handling more then make up for it's 'faults'.

So, is focus throw not something "just" built into the lens but that also works with the camera - something the L-Mount alloiance cameras have built into body software and Sony's do not? If so that would be an interesting development out of the L-mount alliance, agreement on in-body programing for lens features as opposed to just a unity on the mount.
I think it is more likely the L and E versions run different firmware within the lens. If you do a mount conversion they will change the firmware along with the mount (after all it needs to talk to the new mount). So, I don't see any reason it can't be done in E mount, just that it would need a docking station to implament, that doesn't yet exist.
It's hard to separate the symbolism, which is promoting something that is causing so much pain, suffering, and death in the world, from something which is supposed to be a nighttime picture of a building. Because I personally can't ignore the symbol. And that symbol is on that building for a reason.
It's not the politics of it, it's the resulting inhumanity of it.
I will take the picture in the spirit it was intended.
Thank you Sergun for your pictures -all of them with the 45i. I have one, but have not had much chance to get out and really make use of it. Your pictures covering such a wide range of subjects and conditions has shown me that this lens was probably even more vesatile than I intiially thought it was.
I've been thinking recently that if the I-series were manual lenses with wider apertures, they would be perfect. As much as I like Voigtlander, especially after the SE-versions, they can have really distracting backgrounds compared some in the I-series.
I don't really know, but I doubt it. In keeping the lenses relatively small, Sigma chooses to keep better backgrounds in place of wider apertures. A big manual focus Art lens is probably not gonna ever be made, though I like the idea of it.
