Sony A7x lounge

great work as usual pre. is that a cropped or the full frame?

I don’t see a thing wrong with these photos!
I notice that you have or used to have a Sony RX100 (V i believe). I’m interested in knowing what made you decide on the Lumix over the RX100 as a travel/knock-around camera?

The subdued greens are so wonderful. Great image!

It's a super minor thing, but the lens flare at top worries me somewhat. The flare itself is quite nice and adds positively to the image - no issue there. What concerns me is how it's cut off before reaching the border. It's as if a lens flare was copied in as a different layer but didn't get aligned with the top.
So, the thing about it that concerns me is that's just the sort of thing I'd expect from a Canon-mount lens with an adapter. I used to get bad internal reflections from the metabones, but the glare from the internal reflection would always be clipped before met the border. I didn't expect to see that behavior from a native lens. From an editing standpoint it might be good to just crop off the top just enough so the flare extends to the border. Just a thought.

I'm guessing it's an adjustment layer that was moved/altered and not re-aligned at the top.

Yah I got the RX100V and returned. and thank God i found this hidden gem and it's only $549($1200 when it came out 2014) versus the $999 RX

- it has a bigger sensor. M43 vs 1 inch
- mechanical shutter can go up to 1/4000 vs 1/2000 on the RX
- aperture goes from f1.7 to F16 vs 1.8 to F11 only on the RX
- 24-75 vs 24-70 and it's a leica design made by Panasonic
- retro design
- a bit bigger, better ergonomics in the hands.
- ISO goes up to 25600 vs 12800
- a little zoom on the RX100 goes to 2.8 right away. with the LX, it goes 1.8, 1.9, 2, 2.2, 2.5 2.8.... you will be around 50mm 'til it gets to F2.8
- it has a thread for filters
- manual aperture
- different aspect ratio physical switch
- macro mode. you can shoot as close as 3cm.
- it shoots 4K too
- has built-in intervalometer/timelap​se
- sharpness is crazy.
- contrast is good. i never added contrast in post

Looks great!

i love it.

ok let me post a couple here if you guys don't mind. Some reviewers said they cannot go beyond ISO400 on this. I think they just don't know how to use the camera. Look at how clean ISO800 is. No noise reduction.

the guitar is ISO25600 ETTR. -3 on exposure on lightroom. No noise reduction.

the color also is accurate especially on the table since I used my expodisc for custom white balance.

can't wait to shoot this in good light. this evening i'm going to a party, i will try to use it with no flash at all.

i played with this camera few times, I wanted to buy it for long time.. now you reminded me about it

anyone tried Tamron SP 70-200mm F/2.8 Di VC USD G2 on A7RII? or seen any reviews? impressions?

Its half the price of sony, I wonder hows the AF, the sharpness is outstanding.
