Looking a wee case/half case for the A7III, can anyone recommend one ?
Yep exactly like those
I didn't exactly mean to sell the Zeiss but someone made an offer I couldn't refuse and it meant being able to afford the A7RIII.
It was surprisingly easy to sell the Zeiss compared to the samyang!

In short, Sony Zeiss 50/1.4 is the best one if budget is not a criteria. A little surprised how badly the Rokinon did though but i am impressed by the Sigma, that looks to have the softest bokeh.

If only it weren't so bloody expensive.

What I have and love it.
Tripod screw stays centred.
Battery door accessible.
But one of the side flap is slightly obstructed, you won't be able to access the micro USB slot, USB-C is accessible so can still charge with that.
The only mode in which there is no blackout is H+, mechanical or silent.Even in electronic shutter?
This video certainly looks a lot better than mine:
I looked at an A7RII today and that wasn’t anything like this.
do you mean the half leather stuff like gariz?
Thanks Raymond! Jeez £80, suppose in relative terms its not too bad.
I wouldn't say it's better based on one scenario.Umm the a7mk3 had better weather sealing then the 5d4 which actually messed up for him in a real world scenario enviornment
Think I mentioned this when sigma announced what they were doing for e-mount. It's annoying for sure and one of the reasons I am not keen buying one. I'd much prefer a lens designed for e-mount/mirrorless.
I have owned the samyang and Sony Zeiss both of which I sold last week and yesterday respectively.Have you tried the Samyang or Sigma 35s?
My conversion to Sony is almost complete, just a few more items to pickup and I'll be in fanboy territory.

... white lenses..... Shudder, such a bad choice.
I don't see the 1.4x teleconverter there............I've not had much of play with the 70-200 yet but the 100-400 is a real gem. Sharp as a tac and fast to focus.
You'll need a cabinet

I'll try sigma ART next. Hoping it's the best compromise between AF capabilities and optics.
The only thing putting me off the Art is the poor AF tests I’ve seen on YT. Looks a lot worse than the Sammy in comparison...
Really, is that the native mount? On the mc-11 I've found it pretty fast and very accurate so surprised it's not improved.

My sigma order was cancelled for a couple weeks while I consider actually needing a 35. The Zeiss AFC was quite a bit better than samyang in holding moving targets, hit rate was excellent. The sigma 50 is a bit better than the 35 in terms of afc so I'd expect it to be alright not great.
Just discovered I get £200 cashback on top of all this goodness, what's going on?Went into Jessops today intending to p/ex 2 Olympus Pro lenses for a couple of Sony lenses to complete my line-up. Two things happened, one was that they offered me vastly more than I was expecting for 1 lens and very slightly more for the other. The other was that today they are starting a 20% bonus on p/ex prices. Suddenly I was hundreds of pounds “better off” than I had imagined I would be.
The 16-35 F4 was always going to be in my bag but after handling the 24-70 F4, the 24-105 F4 they suggested that I try the 24-70 F2.8 GM they happened to have lying around. Suddenly (in my mind) the extra money I had to play with meant that I didn’t dismiss the GM lens out of hand.
I was hooked, completely and utterly and walked away with the 16-35 F4 and the 24-70 F2.8. That 20% bonus really swung it for me.
You moving away from the 35-85 combo
How could you!?
After watching that video I'll stick with the Loxia f2In short, Sony Zeiss 50/1.4 is the best one if budget is not a criteria. A little surprised how badly the Rokinon did though but i am impressed by the Sigma, that looks to have the softest bokeh.
Maybe get a Noctilux 0.95
I did update the firmware. I actually owned 3-4 copies of the Samyang. Hard to decern which is faster but the Sigma is in a different league with consistency. Image quality is much better as is the Bokeh
As in, you found the AF is more consistent with the Sigma? Most of what i've read has been unfavourable towards the Sigma, lol. I also find the bokeh a little too distracting, it's too contrasty.

Have quite seriously been looking at the Nocturnus 0.95; madness I suppose
Did it lock eyeAF with A7III in this image?
After reading reviews I wouldn't because I'd be wanting it wide open and the Mitakon reviews all say it ain't anywhere near sharp at 0.95.Just buy the Mitakon
