Thanks to OP, this thread is such a mess I hope nobody will post anything here anymore...
I really enjoy checking out new pictures, but this should just go away...
So sorry seeing the A7/A7r on so many lenses was not your cup of tea.
Please do not review the thread now to see the new 28 cron shots
All embeds with permission, and any may PM for the list of now nearly 20 shooters who are delighted to have their images here.
Permission or not, I find this habit of reposting images from some other source more than just annoying. If I want to see Flickr images, I\'d go to Flickr. I am amazed the moderators of Fred Miranda allow this kind of postings. It not only devaluates the value of this site becoming a threadholder kind of \"indexpages\" for Flickr or other photoservices, it also is against the traditional culture of this community of creative photographers themselves and not being collectors of images all over the web. I am sorry for the rant but this is one the worst threads of this community lately and I wish people realize what this new trend of recollector thread will do for the future. Legal aspects aside, it\'s counterproductive for the creative community here. I wish this thread stopped here, or it converts to a more FM user based \"native\" posting of A7/A7r images.
You are welcome to your opinion. The thread view would suggest not everyone agrees with you.
No one is forcing you to monitor the thread.
Many are very interested how the A7r works with various RF lenses. Very interested.
Many of these shooters have now joined FM, which I invited them to do when asking permission to embed their photos.
There are many threads here in which I have no interest. Nevertheless I refrain from telling those in the thread that they are not up to my idea of proper behavior--or whatever.
It\'s not my intention to do anything but share information about what many of are interested in: the first digital FF alternative to Leica ever.
For some reason that is very controversial.
I\'d also note that a nearly idenitcal thread at RFF has gained the support of Stephen Gandy, at Cameraquest.
