sweet
great video but the sound level was so low i could only just hear what you were saying even with my volume maxed out
Patrick…very informative…Love all your’s toys:)
Have anyone try the 12-24mm G on the gimbal?
Side note the 28-135 is a FE lens while the 18-105 is E. Also A mount requires an adapter due to it being a different mount.
Thanks! This is very helpful.. I’m new to the Sony E-Mount systems.. This explains the whole E-mount system!
I’m new to Sony cameras, switching from Nikon, some videos on youtube say that you need an adapter from Sony to make A mount lenses work on E mount cameras. Is this true?
Sony also made a FZ mounting system for pro cinema cameras.
One quick remark. Some crop lenses make even more sense on the a7R3 since you still have 18 megapixels and they are sharper than on all sony aps-c bodies since it doesn’t have any AA filter. And some are damn nice like the 24F1.8, or the sigma 1.4 or even some of the zooms like the sel1018F4 on a gimbal or when you want to keep things smaller.
Thanks Patrick. I switched over from Cannon two years ago. I love the Sony system. Yes there marketing: A mount, E Mount & NEX, is very confusing. I have no idea why Sony is still doing the A mount system? The E mount system is what everyone is using and has all the new lenses. The one thing you didnt address is that you can go from full frame to crop sensor with the A7R & A9 series bodies. That is a game changer being able to use crop sensor lenses on a full frame camera. thanks
https://youtu.be/6S1XvWSwIRk?t=278 . so when you put an e mount lens on, the camera automatically goes into apsc mode?
Thanks Patrick.
Great! Thanks.
Great explanation.
But allow me a question.
I want to change my sony alfa700 for a sony alfa 7iii, and I have sigma lens for sony alfa (10-20 mm – 35mm – 70 mm macro) and a cz 24mm (diagonal). Do sony a7 iii support these lenses without performance impairment?
Thanks.
Nice break down!
Well explained.
Patrick Murphy-Racey, do you know if those lenses (18-110 & 28-135) can do zoom when using Sony Play Memories /or Sony View with Sony Remote (software)?
Hey Patrick, Excellent review and truly informative! Much of the advantages of inter changeability can get overlooked very easily.
Thanks for this one !!
Didn’t talk about the A mount…
Great Video. Thank-you!
very nice man
thank you
Good video but too many uh, uh, uhs.
Great video Mr. Murphy, glad you mentioned the NEX-VG10, I have 2 of those and about to upgrade to newer Sony cameras after 8 years.
Thanks for the info. I do public astronomy and like to give folks the opportunity to shoot through my scopes with their cameras. I shoot Canon but have had people with Sony gear want to try. Looks like an e-mount t-adapter will now be part of my gear.
