Hmmm.
I could treat myself to a modern AF 35mm f1.4 or wait for the (still no sign of it yet) compact 35mm f1.8 everyone hopes for.
Who says?

I will have one up for sale soon
Sigma UK. Its confirmed theyre on the delivery for next week. Spoke to them earlier on the phone
I was on the phone to Sigma about something else and they told me they would get stock next week but then they still have to go out to retailers.... so you may not get it next week but following.
Yeah they said it would depend on customs!
Im just glad its not the end of the month. Im totally floored at how good the 85 is
Ah, but which?
will depend on how good the samyang AF-C is after firmware update. Right now zeiss is winning. if samyang comes to 80-90% of zeiss performance I keep the samyang.
Buy it, its an amazing lens.
I'm sure it is but it's very difficult for me to get time to myself these days as I'm a full time carer and increasingly so as it's taking more and more of my time plus I'm married now so my little photography hobby is very much on the back seat. If I have big kit I find it difficult to justify taking it out when I'm with Mrs WW, family or friends and when pushing a wheelchair doubly so, so I much prefer compact kit as it's easier to manage and not as noticeable or attention grabbing to others. If I had a lot of free time and could just go out for a day just about whenever I wanted with a camera and three or four lenses like I used to a few years ago then I'd very probably have one. £600 or so for something I'll hardly use seems a bit, questionable. £20-80 for a 40 year old lens, not so bad
Yeah, have you used your 50? Guys at WEX told me they had a few 50s in but they all flew out today.
Hi i tried out the new Sigma e mount 50mm in park cameras and what a rubbish lens!
The IQ is amazing
The AF is sensational
The AF sound is freaking silent
na! lol 50mm im not a big fan of. im a 35/85 kind of guyHope you didn't buy it.

need the zooms for places where i cant change lenses. like hiking, in the beach etc but since owning the A7r2 i have become a big fan of primes.Ditch those zooms then

My ultimate travel setup would be A9, 25mm batis 35mm 2.8 sy, 55mm sony 1.8 and the 85mm batis. what a setup!

Honestly I’m happy with the Tamron, yes its missing a couple of things (24mm for one!) and I’m surprised how much I miss the on-len custom button but for £700 I don’t think I can complain.
I need to do some more shooting and try it for some night shots but I’m not seeing any real difference the 24-105 (which seems to bear out the more technical comparisons)
Your probably right. But the A9 has a better af. f*** it I'll take bothwhy travel with A9, surely the A7RIII is better for travel. You get plenty for cropping room in case you need extra reach. Its not like you need the speed of the A9 on travels and its bulkier than A7RIII.

I’m currently looking for a smaller camera to supplement my existing kit. I want a smaller, lighter camera for general shooting.
I shoot mainly people but I also enjoy architectural and landscape.
I’m torn between the A9 or the A7RIII.
The megapixel count of the A7RIII would obviously be of benefit to me in my shooting. However the autofocus of the A9 looks more inline with what I’ve come to expect of my pro DSLR kit.
Thoughts...
What lenses?
What DSLR kit do you use John? The A7riii would be a match for most things AF wise up to about a D850 - the more sport oriented things like a D5 though and your in A9 territory.

Indeed.All big lenses....or very similar size to the Canon.
You’ll save a bit of weight on the body and if you are used to the 1D body then a Sony body will be too short for you...add a grip then you are back to square 1, saving nothing, especially not money.
Don’t buy a Sony for weight saving if you intend to get G-Master (or any fast aperture) lenses.
Tamron 28-75 compared to the 24-70 GM by Dustin Abbot, pretty much as expected I think
