Do later cameras do this or are these reflections just an early model thing?
Looking on the phone, do you mean the bright bit of flare? Most likely the lens rather than camera.
I've never heard of things like that caused by the sensor, I always assumed it was the lensThe radiating light circles to the right of each of the main points of light in that picture. I read years ago that the A7 can show these reflections from the sensor and that it's worse with some particular lenses. I remember that the 35mm f2.8 was named as being particularly bad. I think I read that this is lessoned in later bodies.
You can see it more clearly in this, taken with the 35mm f2.8.

If you google you'll see it's a real thing. Having an A7 and seeing this myself I have been ware of this for a long time but I'm hazy on how newer cameras handle this. I think I read that it's reduced with newer cameras but I can't be sure.
Just been to the post office with my A7C and so I took my only remaining camera for a stroll in the park. A7 full spectrum, Minolta Rokkor 45mm f2 with 850nm filter.
This lady was taking a rest from her walk and photo was taken after checking with her, didn't want to startle her but more so didn't want to startle the very large dog!

Thanks for sharing
I can imagine on a winters tea time that would be a great view as the light drops if the sides of the track are illuminated too.Thank you I thought it was rather drab due to the conditions and of course the lights down the side of the track weren't on but I'm glad someone likes it
I think this lens performs well at f1.8 and I did mean to say earlier that although I haven't used this lens much it is IMO a really good lens and the build quality looks a step up from the likes of the 35 and 55mm f1.8 I also have.

Hey chaps, I've arranged a sale on my A1 and have a virtually unused 320GB Lexar Professional (900Mbs) Type A Cfexpress Gold series memory card to sell.
What price do you reckon I can get for it?
I'd not heard of this, will need to look into itProbably not an awful lot, most people have caught on now that you can buy the Lexar type A cards ridiculously cheap compared to U.K prices from Asia.
Example Lexar silver type A 320GB brand new is only £100 and is often slightly cheaper than that as well when promo's are on.
The Lexar Gold type A 320gb cards brand new from Asia are around £190 usually.
Aliexpress have them with guaranteed 5 day delivery as well.
I was a bit dubious about these but know a lot of people who are using them and have confirmed with Lexar that the cards are legit and not some knock off copy.
We are being robbed blind in the U.K for them.
Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 II's been officially announced, I thought they'd have tried to make it at least as light as the GM II if not lighter but it's not the case. Much cheaper though

Assuming the Sigma hits the mark optically it’s a no brainer, who’d not choose a lens that’s likely 98% as good for near enough half the rpice.Sony GM II is £1999k, Sigma £1179 - unless you need the super high fps the Sony will offer on some cameras, the Sigma looks a great option.

I would say £400 plus on ebay. They are very expensive new and there are some who will only use Sony cards. I was pondering a third A1 as I have talked myself out of the A9iii.
