Sony A6300 Update Part 2 by TheDigitalDigest:

A6300 first impression at Dpreview: “really impressive little camera”

a6300_FE2470GM_image_white

Dpreview posted their A6300 first impression review and do write:

It’s pretty clear that Sony set out to create a future-proof camera in the a6300, one whose specs will likely look impressive, even two years down the road. The camera has a lot of fire power, both in the AF and video departments, and initial impressions indicate that everything works as it should. Which is to say, the a6300 is a really impressive little camera.It’s certainly not going to turn any heads with it looks, but it should give you everything you need to instead turn heads with your images. Which for most, is a much more worthwhile goal.

One more thing: Plenty of A6300 videos poste dby TheDigitalDigest on Youtube.

Sony A6300 review at CameraLabs: “Sony sensor technology is racing ahead of the competition”

Bildschirmfoto 2016-03-15 um 11.09.02

CameraLabs posted the final full Sony A6300 review:

Ultimately I commend Sony on its sensor technology which is racing ahead of the competition. The autofocus and movie capabilities of the A6300’s sensor are truly impressive, and by eliminating viewfinder lag, they’ve also addressed one of the remaining benefits DSLRs had over mirrorless cameras. I just wish they’d invest as much effort into control and ergonomics as my issues with them hold the A6300 back from my top award. That said, I’ll be upgrading my own A6000 to the A6300 for sports and action photography and look forward to updating this review with how it performs in the future.

First Commlite Nikon F autofocus adapter review

SAR reader Thomas (tommyphotography.com) posted a detailed Commlite Nikon F autofocus adapter review. And the conclusion isn’t that favorable:

As much I appreciate Commlites efforts to do a Nikon F to Sony E adapter they really have much work to do. They may be on the right path, but the current version of the AF adapter is not really useable in my opinion (maybe it’s a faulty copy?). The build quality is good, but has its flaws (Tamron 24-70 only mountable with detached tripod plate). Only two out of four lenses worked, and one of them had some bigger issues. Nonetheless I had a bit of fun using the two 24-70 lenses on the A7 Mark II. I do not know which firmware version was installed on mine, but I assume it is the latest as I got the adapter very late after several delays.
