Adam, thank you for your comments. You are absolutely right - upgrading to the S007 makes little sense for use with only one lens; however, I already have my sights set on a couple of additional S lenses - the 24-S and the 100-S.
S-lenses are funny... At first I always dislike them (other then the 45S that was love at first snap). But for the rest of the S-lenses.. I start out thinking \"what\'s the fuss\" and then the more I use them, the more I realise that there isn\'t anything on the market I\'d rather use.
The 35/70/120 are no brainer lenses. They match almost perfectly and are a joy to use once you get use to them. The 45S is on it\'s own (sort of) and so is the 100S. Though the 100S was the hardest for me to like.. It\'s now my favourite of them all. IF I had two S-007 units, I think I\'d have the 45S and 100S permanently glued to them. And the S-006 I\'d use for the 35/70/120 since the rendering is different, but good for the S-006 sensor.
The 30S I tried, but am not a 24mm kinda guy, the 24S I dare not touch as I have a feeling I\'ll want it. The 180 I\'ve tried and I like it, but cannot find one at a compelling enough price to buy (slow speed has me hesitating for what it sells for). And the 120TS I have no interest in. The zoom also doesn\'t interest me, although I\'ve seen AMAZING stuff shot with it.
I just did a REALLY quick test (I\'m obviously procrastinating on the forums today)... Anyway, nothing scientific.. This is a typical exposure for me. Both large files look about the same in exposure. And both files are the same exact settings.. 200 ISO, f/2 (don\'t read the exif info it lies), min focus distance, exactly same time shooting (since I have two 50APO lenses I could test simultaneously) and 1000th of a second from both cameras.
These are JPG files out of camera. Both cameras produce better raw files, but for the sake of my gripe with the SL, I\'ll just show the JPG files.
See what I mean.. The SL doing the same crap like the Sony sensors.
So to note.. When shooting with the M-P240 rarely if ever see stuff like this. It doesn\'t affect my day to day shooting. Nor my work. The S-system also doesn\'t have this issue. I noticed it a LOT with the Sony cameras in day to day work. Enough that I couldn\'t/wouldn\'t use them. The SL unfortunately is showing this a lot. I also noticed it with other photographers works. It isn\'t always a bright exposure thing. Over on Getdpi I see it in a few photographers works.. And ppl are claiming it\'s in the photoshopping of the file. But it\'s not..
And no it\'s not just the greens.. It\'s the reds and blues that do this as well.. Yellows and oranges of skin tones too.. As I said, I could show tons of samples of this, but no point in doing so, because I don\'t have a direct reference using the M to show that it is an SL and Sony specific problem.
