OK, one last video to clearly illustrate the noise. People keep saying the audio gain must be too loud (they need to lower the volume on their end -- This is straight from my iphone to youtube with zero production value)
Here is the side by side comparison of the Sigma 50mm Art on my 5D3 vs. the 85mm GM on the A7RII with the latest 3.1 firmware... and having shot with the 85mm all day yesterday. (At the Formula D race in Long Beach, which I am happy to say, you totally can\'t hear the lens focusing in that environment).
A the end of the video, when you actually take a picture, we can hear that audio level is on the high side. We all know how the A7RII shutter sounds in normal audio levels. However, your videos are very helpful illustrating the that 85/1.4\'s AF is definitely not quite like other FE lenses.
Precisely why these tests are bassackwards, the audio needs to come from the internal Sony cameras video! We can pre-set the levels in-camera, shoot a video clip with this and other lenses and do a proper semi-scientific comparison against other glass. We need a videographer to test who has access to a few copies.
