He was but I wanted the updated version with the newer rear LCD.Think @nandbytes was looking to swap his A7RIV for an A7IV

that's exactly what I said to him but he was not interestedI have had both there is very little difference, big penalty to pay just to get a slightly better LCD.

I am even happy to add a free kirk l-bracket that sells for over £160 on Wex. Personally would take l-bracket over the LCD any day but each to their own.
I’ve already got one A7IV body and I thought I wanted another but I’ve ordered I want the RIVa now.How come you are downgrading from the A7IV to the A7RIV?
If you ignore the extra resolution the A7IV is better at everything else?
Each to their own.
You’re welcome to buy it from me and save £100 before it goes back to Very on Friday.that's exactly what I said to him but he was not interested

I can get it cheaper from LCE this Saturday.You’re welcome to buy it from me and save £100 before it goes back to Very on Friday.
I doubt it unless you’ve got a discount code, no used items in stock and it’s £2400 on their website.I can get it cheaper from LCE this Saturday.

Only got mine the other week only used it at one wedding so far.
Good points:
- A.F is ridiculously quick
- Eye A.F is the best I have seen on a lens so far, probably because of the fast a.f speed
- I.Q is good, what you would expect for an oem 24-70 f/2.8
- I like the aperture lock button, wish the rest of the G.M lenses had this.
- It is lightweight.
Bad points
- It doesn't feel like a premium lens, build quality is okay but it doesn't feel as well made as say the old Nikon 24-70 f/2.8 I once had. I assume this was because they wanted to keep it light. It is better build than the Tamron 28-75 it replaced, but then that lens is made of chocolate.
Thanks Pete, glad you like them.....Wonderful set Bob. 2 and 3 are my particular favourites.
Wish I was closer I would have gone to that.they are offering a discount to everyone going to the Goodwood LCE event on Saturday.
I get a wee little extra discount since I know the manager well and am a regular customer.
for anyone else interested here's event, its free to attend:

Likewise.Wish I was closer I would have gone to that.
Definitely sharper, although the Mark I's clearly not bad. I prefer the WB of the second shot.Ok comparison is pretty non-scientific with flaws.. like better lit side vs poorer lit side - that said the mark II bring the image closer to the sharpness that I'm used to.
So without further ado..

Yeah really jealous.... Inc. that 800mm f6.3The new Nikon 400mm f4.5 VR S looks an interesting lens, I've always wanted Sony to do a 400mm f4. Don't think it'll be cheap though.
I can’t see them them doing the 400mm but they may do a super tele with both Nikon and Canon bringing them out.Yeah really jealous.... Inc. that 800mm f6.3
Currently I don't expect to be using much telephotos due some changes in our life but when I'm able to get back out again shooting birds/wildlife, if Sony doesn't have competing lens I'll most likely swap.
It'll be nice to something or almost anything.I can’t see them them doing the 400mm but they may do a super tele with both Nikon and Canon bringing them out.
Probably everything else is simply already very good for most people.The result is not surprising, however what I don’t understand is the new 70-200mm blitzes everything in the sharpness department but overall is only a few points higher
£3300 for the Nikon I think I saw todayThe new Nikon 400mm f4.5 VR S looks an interesting lens, I've always wanted Sony to do a 400mm f4. Don't think it'll be cheap though.
Not sure I understand that either but it is by far the sharpest zoom I have ever had and not many primes I have used are as sharp wide openThe result is not surprising, however what I don’t understand is the new 70-200mm blitzes everything in the sharpness department but overall is only a few points higher

What issues are you having?I totally give up with olympus cashback srew up, so you will start to see more of my Sony shots now as the other camera is now back in the box and put away.

It’s poor when they make it so difficult. I assume it’s not grey?They keep saying my IBAN number is wrong and it should be 22 numbers, I have just taken a photo and emailed that. Time will tell if they get it right.
