Re: Announced: RX1R II with 42MP sensor and EVF


I agree with Ron here, that the RXrII will be great for environmental/street/candid portraits and a great backup for weddings. I really hope the AF implementation and speed has greatly improved, as this will make a great street camera.

I never thought I would like AF again after the M9/M240 with the RF experience, but a well implemented AF that is very accurate is fun to use!

In hind sight what turned me off AF was the 5DII with the 50L, 85L as there were so many shots I just missed the critical focus needed when shooting wide open to the point when MF was faster.

With A7rII and FE 35/1.4 this camera set up it is \"fun\" and \"enjoyable\" to use. Set up for night street photography, the combo gets out of your way. Of course I wish the FE 35/1.4 was smaller and lighter but I do love the rendering.

The RX1rII with a more accurate and responsive AF will be awesome, in combo the 35 Sonnar which truly stands on its own.

Of course with the 42 MP shutter shake is a concern, but hopefully it will be like the M9 where is was possible to shoot consistently down to 1/10s with a 50mm lens. There may be excellent camera dampening that reduces the vibration particularly with the leaf shutter.

My wife uses the A7s in combo with FE 35/2.8 as she loves this setup. I may just have to upgrade her setup to the RX1rII
