A member of our A7IV Facebook Group named “Myrtle” posted this image of a totally broken Sony FX3. While he didn’t share the story about what exactly happened I had a great fun reading the comments posted below the images. Some of them are:
-> It’s always recommended to get a screen protector
-> Remove the battery for 30 seconds and then put it back in and try powering on. Usually works for me.
-> Is this an advertisement for the Sigma Art 24-70???
-> Have you tried putting it in rice?
-> This overheating is getting out of hand!
Preorders: Sony 300mm at BHphoto. Amazon US&EU. Adorama. FotoErhardt. Fotokoch. Calumet. WexUK.
PCmag reviewed the lens anc concluded:
The Sony FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS telephoto lens backs its lofty price with a rare combination of superlative picture quality and quick focus in an exceptionally light frame.
