Oh yes!

Looks to be the genuine Sony going by the model number. Could always email them to double check?
I had one of the pattern grips (Meike) and hated it, so sent it back. As all I wanted was a slightly larger grip, I bought an L-plate. Now a perfect fit in my hand.
L plate hmm which did you get.
Mind you the grip is so I can't take portrait easier with shutter buttons and controls on grip
Hi guys,
contemplating buying one of these cameras but have a few questions.
Is there a significant difference between the A7 and the A7ii besides the in-built stabiliser? Is the sensor in both of them identical?
Do any of you have both the A7 and Fuji X-T1, or have experience with both? How does the AF speed and accuracy compare between the two cameras?
Do any of you use the A7/A7ii with just one lens exclusively? If yes, which one? I was thinking of getting either the A7 or A7ii with a zoom/kit lens. Then one prime. Don't know which zoom/prime to get though.
Sony 55mm 1.8 or the FE 50mm 1.8?

Quick question for those of you that shoot weddings?
Off to my Bro's wedding in a few weeks and thought I'd take my camera with the 55 attached to get a few candids here and there (of course staying well out of the wedding togs way).
I've not shot a lot of people in general and was wondering about settings.
Was thinking manual, 1/250th, f1.8 and auto ISO as a ballpark. Is this about right or would you suggest different?

Like this shot the most from the ones posted - see you went for the 70-200 f4 - lovely lens
Can't help with a sling bag, I use a messenger and a backpack.
Thank you pal.. Comments are much appreciated.
Like I say not been anywhere yet was suppose be going to Chatsworth this weekend but the damn weather doesn't look too promising
Yup I got the Sony A7ii with the 28-70 Kit lens and the 70-200 F4. The 55mm 1.8 is next hopefully tmr or saturday.
A messenger is what i was looking for I didn't quite know the correct name guess it called shoulder bag?? Which one you got pls?
ThinkTank Retro 7. Absolutely love it if not taking big tripod, flashes and filters, doesn't look like a camera bag
Even if the weathers bad surely Chatsworth would be a great place with the 55?
Hoping to get away myself this weekend. Stuck at home with E-coli poisoning at the moment. I don't recommend it
Will the camera take the rain ???

A quick Q.
Some of you would have noted I currently have a 6D with a 24-70mm f2.8 L with Canon.
Is the 24-70mm f4 Zeiss comparable or not really, would it need to be the 2.8GM? To achieve 'sinilar' results?
In terms of sharpness both the f2.8 and f4 Sony lens score higher mounted to an A7r/A7r-II when compared to the Canon 24-70 f2.8 l when mounted to the 6D according to DXO. However it's skewed as the Sony has more MP and lenses mounted on higher MP bodies tend to score higher.A quick Q.

Does anyone know of any retailer selling the GM 85 for a decent price? I went into the Sony store in Bath today and the guy said he could order it in for £1305 before the price increase. But as I'm on holiday that's not much good to me......
The only way I'm aware of is to use this siteThank you Rookies and Snerkler! Really appreciate that.
One final Q. I am considered a 2nd hand A7II but being mirrorless I was told you can't find out how many shots it's taken?
I'm a mirrorless noob. Is this true?
I feel investing £900 into the unknown seems silly?
Any advice?
Ok folks apart from the big price difference is there really much difference between the
Sony 50mm 1.8
Sony 55mm 1.8
As can get the 50mm for £210 new

£1305 sounds like a miss price or the a-mount version?
You'll have to hurry as all new stock is being shipped so it lands into dealers from Aug 2nd after the price increases.
If it is indeed £1305 I'd buy them all lol.
