But with a Sony sensor
Yes but that Sony sensor gets so hot it causes the plastic on the grip to peel off.

Mind sharing any pics taken with it? No worries if not
How do you find the focus and overall speed and responsiveness?

No but someone on the Z thread had to have theirs replaced and when they inquired Nikon have all but said they've changed the materials and have stated that only the early batches were affectedHave Nikon officially come out saying that?

Thanks for a thoughtful post clicktor.
I think sometimes things do get a bit... much... but looking at other forums this place is generally much more civilised and respectful and despite the odd blow up peeps usually do get along quite nicely here Which is nice
I don't know about cliquey, maybe not wanting to be a member of any clique that would have me is the right idea? IMVHO new peeps should always feel very welcome
Council house refs... I think it's actually a badge of honour now and actually as a user of cheap lenses I quite like the tag now YMMV and all that but I can see how some could find it offensive.
I agree about pictures. I tend to post equipment related pictures and pictures taken when I'm doing something different but I do like to see pictures So Yes, you have a point there
This is the thing, it would probably solve the issue and the option is there with the Dock.
However, I've not had to do this on any other lens for Sony and it just doesn't leave me with a very comfortable feeling about the lens. Already in the back of my mind I'm questioning build quality and durability. First impressions mean count for a lot to me and I just think this issue is going to have me worrying about it. Sony's eye af box doesn't keep up in real time so I'm going to be constantly chimping if I don't trust the lens.
At £550 after cash back I still think its a great option at a relatively reasonable price. If truth be told I've probably just been spoilt be some top end lenses. I think it's great that samyang are here with these lens options. E mount Lens options are really broadening and if Tamron or sigma release a 70-200 f2. 8 I'll be dancing in the street.
No, Nikon haven't officially said anything it's only because the person who's camera was affected quizzed the Nikon representative about it.Has that been confirmed by serial number?
Almost ordered one off amazon yesterday but its a 1-3 month wait. Must be popular.
This thread is seen by some as one of the more elitist in this section at least. The average non Sony user normally won't just wander in to join the discussion, they'd rather ask outside of it about Sony gear. I think this comes from a feeling that unless you have the latest higher end Ghee master Sony stuff you won't be even listened to. I have interest in all systems, no fanboyism here so I'll drop in and out of all the main threads as I please but I'm as likely to just troll in return for my own pleasure And I think for the most part it's a decent thread, so long as you're not the sensitive type. The council house prime thing seemed odd at first, then we turned it round and made it ours bit like the Penney's thing! [Primark in the UK] - used to be you would get slagged off for wearing Penny's gear, nowadays it's more of a boast - "Guess where I got this ... Penney's!! £5! beat that!" - like you say, badge of honour
No different to the d750 thread bk in the day as it’s mainly the same people, that was always ending in bickering.
A lot of those things are just banter though.
TBH it wears really thin after a bit, and makes me much less likely to 'talk' to you, Twist or Tommy so I don't have to deal with flying faeces. It's impossible to tell when you're all just enjoying yourselves and when you're ready to send the boys round.
I promise to never send the boys round to you Toni.
Less likely to talk to me? What have I said wrong here lol[emoji38] I promise to never send the boys round to you Toni.

I'm not going to quote them all. But great images people. It IS nice to see images inbetween all the talk!
I was previously. The 21/3.5 is awesome but the aperture could be bigger for some shots & astro. I managed to pick up a Samyang 24/1.4 + adapter for £210 so that's dedicated astro now - I don't mind having £200 tied up in a lens that gets little use. That Voigtlander is too pricey for me to justify to myself in all honesty - as I expected it to be really.
