Sony a7(R): Best thing that happened to Canon users this year.

Super fast AF like you get on most the regular DSLR's is not there but enough to get some nice pans on a small scale. Hopefully have a chance to try mine out at the F1, fingers crossed.

I got my Sony tonight, one of the first imported to the country, 3 years warranty. No Metabones, but got mechanical Nipon Canon lens adapter:

Congrats! I hope this grey Sydney weather improves for you (I probably won't be shooting )

Meant to clear up for a bit this weekend! Got a wedding to shoot, maybe I'll sneak it along. Don't think I'm used to it enough yet to shoot on it for the day yet.

SonyA7R, quick snapshots around the garden with 55mm F1.8, used Sony Raw converter to LR5 then jpeg

^very nice! the only thing growing in my garden right now is snow.

Took some snapshots this afternoon to test the Sony A7r AF under low light condition, it worked well on the 55FE lens.

^^Nice, almost feels like springtime around here.

This is a Plymouth Sedan but I'm not sure of the year. I believe it's from the early 1940's.

Here are a couple from the 55 1.8. Points if you can guess the cars.

Might need to pick up that 55mm I need to sell my 35mm first!

did you sell your 35mm? where did you sell it and how much did you get? If you dont mind me asking that is.

MY12 GTR or MY13 if you are in the US?

Looks like an Audi on the last. A7 or 8? Not clued up on Audis these days. Did you get any full shots of the cars wide open? I preferred around 85mm for a good car shot (non close up detail stuff)
