Re: Announced: Sony A7R II


Exciting.

They just need to update the firmware to give a real RAW (and a cropped RAW mode) and exciting stuff.

Imagine if it allowed 10bit 4k on clean HDMI?!!! (no clue if it does or not)

Great for Canon users. Don\'t have to rush into selling off all the amazing Canon lenses and the great expense of getting a new Nikon set.

Canon said 4k was impossible in such a high MP camera (and it\'s not just 4k but 4k with no line skipping and not just no line skipping but oversampled 4k!) or in any such camera under $8000 at all. They said focus peaking and zebras and other basic usability features only belonged in $15,000+ cameras. They said low ISO DR wasn\'t worth the bother. etc. etc. Canon (MBAs) saw impossible. Sony did it.

Good stuff!
(still hanging onto 5D3 though as I still don\'t think this cuts it for serious sports/action, it\'s still an adpated mirrorless and not a real and native DSLR)

Heck it costs less than a 5Ds too.
