UPDATE: The Sony NAB press conference is now over. As expected no new A or E-mount stuff has been announced. For that we will have to wait a couple of days more (April 23).
Today at 2pm LAs Vegas time you can follow the video life streaming of the Sony press conference on SAR. Like I told you before do not expect any new A or E-mount photocamera today. Although I would be happy to be proven wrong!

Richard: “I made a small test video with Sigma lens 30mm f2,8 on a6000. I am really pleasantly surprised, how good is AF in video with this non-Sony lens, especially when this lens is not last Art version (but quality of this lens is unbelievable for this price) and PDF is with this lens on a6000 very limited. Look on video and sorry for my bad english :)

Hi,
I have released a new free application that could interest SonyAlphaRumors readers, as many of them may use alt lenses on A7 series.
A lot of alternative bodies, adapters, lenses etc don’t report lenses right, if any. LensChanger is an application that allow you to change lenses registered into xmp files (sidecar files for Raws), jpeg files, and tiff files through exif metadatas.
LensChanger as been designed as a standalone, lightweight, portable and very easy to use application. It can thus work with whatever software using xmp sidecar files for raws, like LightRoom, ApertureOne, etc… So, you can keep it on an USB drive and run it with a few clicks to get all your files with correct lenses.
you can use ‘Rewrite’ after having set a list of lenses to change to and a folder to work on. This allow you to have LensChanger to automatically rewrite some lenses into custom defined lenses, if your adapter or bodie doesn’t report lens you need.
Or you can directly manually select a few files (or entire folder) and directly override a custom lens into. For raws file, it will create an xmp file with lens data if none exist. So once you import them into Lightroom for example, the lens will be good ! Of course, is an xmp file is ever created by a raw editing software, all your datas (tags, rating, develop settings etc) will still be there!
All informations and downloads, both for Windows x64 and Mac OSX, are here:

This application is written by a photographer who needed it, and who decided to release it for everyone, for free.
Cheers!

Loxia 35mm vs. Sonnar 35mm Lens Comparison at Ilovehatephoto: “Comparing the Loxia 35mm to the Sonnar 35mm, the Loxia wins out on build quality, vignetting/flare control, and character. While the Sonnar is the workhorse, the Loxia is for the connoisseur. The Loxia 35mm f/2 is not a perfect lens, but a huge kudos to Zeiss for taking the risk and designing a lens that was so fun to use and with so much soul.”
