If I had to pick one lens under $1000 for the Sony E-Mount system, I’d pick the Tamron 28-75 most of the time. No, it isn’t a f/1.4 prime, but it does a fantastic job in many areas. It is a joy to film with on a gimbal with its excellent autofocus. Images coming out of the Tamron 28-75 are sharp, contrasty, and have nice colors. It comes in only $799. Yes, there are a few drawbacks, but at $1400 cheaper than its nearest competitor, those drawbacks are perfectly okay.

Curiosity: SD card fails during the Canon EOS-R review

Today mjfotografie.de sent me this tweet. Just to say cards can fail…

For me personally having one slot only is not a dealbreaker. But still I find it a bit annoying that suddenly Nikon and Canon folks say having one slot is no issue while they annoyed us Sony owners for years because our first and second generation A7 cameras had one slot only…

At the same time I am annoyed by the fact Sony hasn’t added two equally fast UHS II card slots.

Ted Forbes disappointed by the Canon-Nikon announcements: “Sony understands that mirrorless is more than just taking out the mirror”

Ted Forbes quickly summed up what are my exact thoughts on the new Canon EOS-R system.

And just to give you one more thing to think about…

As you see from DxOmark Canon is really way behind Sony’s sensor tech. Thre difference is much bigger than expressed in those numbers because it doens’t evaluate the video quality. The Canon sensor is incapable of reading out 4K FF without crop, and has soft 4K quality compared to Sony. And I doubt they have the resources to close the gap. On the contrary I expect the gap to get bigger. Eventually I can see Canon using Sony sensors just like Nikon does.

 

Sony vs Canon lens size comparison

Size matters right folks? So here we can see how the new Canon fast lenses compare with the Sonys (via CameraSize):

The 28-70mm f/2.0 is huge but I still want Sony to make an E-mount version of it. And apparently many of you do agree with me:

Choose the ONE lens Sony should ABSOLUTELY makes as next...
