Camera preferences for using vintage lenses?
I've found my Sony A7ii to work very well with vintage lenses. I find focus peaking works pretty well for me along with the overexposure indication (zebra striping). And if I want to get really accurate with the focus I can zoom in quite easily.

Worth the switch?
Right, as a fellow Sony 20-70 f/4 owner and M43 shooter, let me share my thoughts… I own the Sony A7C (so, a step up from your A7II) along with the 20-70 f/4, plus a few other lenses. I also have an OM-5 paired with the 12-45 f/4 Pro. When I bought the Sony 20-70 f/4, my intention was to replace the

Anyone Switch From an A7IV to a Z6III or Z8?
I have beaten this drum to death by now but I went A7R2 -> Z7II w/Viltrox E-Z for about 4 months. Mid June sold the Z7II for a Z8. I shared your sentiment for disdain towards spending a metric ton just to shoot decent FPS on Sony, not to mention CFe A vs B. Ultimately it was a mix of that, having to

Budget Full Frame for Vintage Lenses?
Sony A7ii should be in your budget. Has decent focus aids and pretty effective IBIS, and it's easy to find in good condition.

First attempt at motorsport photography with old, borrowed gear. I had a blast!
First of all, I’m very envious that you got to go to Spa for WEC. Second, something I learned with my Sony A7ii is that Sony cameras are great a tracking objects in motion, so be sure to double-check your auto-focus settings! When I go to the Detroit GP this year, I’m gonna make sure I’m doing every

Let's talk gear! Reviews, questions, etc.
With that budget I would go with the nikon 200-500. It’s a great lens and it will perform even better if you swap to the d500 later. I currently use the d500 and I’m really impressed. I have owned a few mirrorless cameras before (sony a7ii and sony a6600) and none of them feels as snappy as the d500

Are Zeiss Loxia lenses on Sony a good alternative to Leica?
There’s a big difference in the ‘look’ between Zeiss Loxia and Sony G Master lenses. Unlike the earlier Carl Zeiss lenses for Sony Alpha, the G Master lenses have zero Carl Zeiss involvement. Let there be no confusion here - G Master is a 100% Sony product and 0% Carl Zeiss. I agree with the OP that

Which cheap mirrorless is good for street photography?
I use Sony A7II with manual lenses (most of them are very cheap). If you don’t afraid of lack of autofocus, you can choose similar set-up (it’s not necessary to choose the same body, just talking about using-manual-lenses option)

A question about camera bodies.
I started with a Sony A7 and M lenses but it didn’t work well with any focal length less than 50mm. I now have the A7ii and it seems to work well down to 35mm. It’s certainly a lot better than the A7. I have heard that the A7iii and A7iv are better again but have no personal experience. I have a fri

Lugares que recomienden para comprar cámaras de foto digitales?
Bien, con ese presupuesto puedes conseguir alguna Sony A7ii usada o mejor aún una A7iii que es una ventaja gigante frente a la A7ii, o sino alguna Canon. La ventaja de las mirrorless son el peso y la sensibilidad del sensor, aguantan muchísimo más ISO que las viejas reflex, si la vas a usar para ani
