Well, this is the week that I dip in my toe and join the society of Sony FF owners. Yes, I know it\'s taken some time -- waiting for used prices to become more affordable, as I continue to maintain product lines in Canon and Nikon.
Faced with the daunting cost of purchase of a 5Ds/R as the most needed to maintain my Canon lenses, or adding a D810, which isn\'t that much of an improvement over my D800e, the logical choice seems the original Sony a7R to mount my Canon lenses (especially TSE\'s), as well as explore my various manual focus lenses, and dabble in Sony/Zeiss native lenses for the brand.
Today the a7R arrived and I started right in checking it out, using two inexpensive Sony lenses: 28-70 OSS kit lens, and the wonderful 28/2. Additionally, I tried one manual focus lens, the FDn 50/3.5 macro.
I\'m impressed with the imaging on all the lenses, even the kit lens for what it is. The 28/2 is really pretty fantastic. And the 50 macro is no slouch. That was it for today. Maybe his weekend I can try the Commlite and Fotodiox AF adapters for some of the Canon lenses, especially the TSE\'s.
It\'s nice to finally join the party after seeing so much impressive work presented here by so many talented photographers using the Sony FF\'s.
I\'ll start with a few from the humble kit lens. Mostly shot wide open to get a feel for the weakest areas. All hand held, quick run & gun style. PP in LRCC.
Welcome to this group!
