thanx.i love the field of view on this lens,if u shoot a wide scene it almost doesn't bend the edges.weird thing is though it feels like a different focal length than on my 70d,the sony is in apc mode so i assume the field should be the same,on the 70d it seems different,anyways i love this lens on both cams.

this is the amount of snow still here where i am working,this was taken with the fisheye yesterday. this is my work truck. snow is melting fast now. still below 0c though.

It has indeed a difference. Canon Aps-c is a 1.6x crop and sony is 1.5. Your eyes arent fooling you

To be honest, this was a snapshot kind of capture. I had to keep walking so I didn't consider the settings. I just shot the way I typically shoot. And since it's stitch of more than 10 shots, I couldn't check a preview from the screen.

I often shoot landscapes and cityscapes with wide angle + wide aperture combo. I like how the wide aperture renders backgrounds - just slightly out of focus and soft. But I can't decide whether this one would've still been better with the image sharp overall.

I wanted to ask everyone's opinion on something. I made the decision to switch back to DSLR. It was not an easy decision, as I absolutely loved having the great image quality, DR, and focus accuracy. However, I just could not get used to the smaller body, or the EVF. (Nothing against the evf, it was great, but just not for me)


Now to get to my question.. I have been trying to sell my A7RII for over a week, and haven't even got an inquiry. Is the re-sale that bad for Sony bodies? Mine is about 4 months old, looks brand new, with <1000 clicks. I started at 3K, but then dropped my price another 300. Just not sure what is going on. What is a decent price for something like this?


Thanks

that is the nature of camera body resale. Looking at comparable bodies like the 5Dsr and 5Ds, they take major hits on resale, I've seen 5Dsr's sell for 23-2500, which is pretty insane considering the initial price.

Maybe your photos arent good enough? who knows, selling camera gear can be a drag if you want to get high prices, and considering I bought the cam for 2700 new, I personally wouldnt consider a second hand version for 2700, while others may. Consider you can go on ebay now and get a gray market NEW body for 2800, 2700 doesnt seem that great of a deal, you've gotta compete with that sorta reasoning as well.

Thanks for the input. That's what I needed. I didn't realize you could get a new grey market body for 2800. That could explain a lot. Might have to re-consider my price...

You might also want to consider selling it on Fred Miranda. There seems to be more Sony activity over there and perhaps more potential customers?

When I hear people mention that the small size of the Sony mirrorless cameras is hard to get used to, I chuckle. I began with a Canon AE-1 Program and A-1 which are a little smaller than the Sony. I thought the DSLR was too big for my liking. I still do, and really appreciate the small Sony.
