So maybe these show some typical work with the Rok 1.8.
One review on FM said that focus at infinity doesn't work.
He is correct.
I took a shot of distant tree tops=not in focus.
Put the a9 in manual focus and whalla focus achieved.
With this lens came the 'dock' or whatever Rokinon calls it. Might help.

OK this shot showing, well kinda showing bokeh balls for you all.

So now Poof and I don't fight over the 55/1.8

David I've sold off 6 kayaks.....but added 2, so still with 18 ish boats.
Current favorite to paddle is the P@H Cetus-

But when RV'ing the Sea Eagles are the way to go.
If I lived in an apartment the Sea Eagle would be perfect.

Funny brought that up. Poof is scheming a multiday paddle trip. We'll see
what she comes up with. Wasn't that long ago we did a January circumnavigation
of Land Between the Lakes hammocking each night around the peninsula.

I think if she plans one it will be a simple paddle trip on Fontana.

You're welcome sir. That's great. Looking forward to your impressions of the tripod.

No, thank you.
If Ian likes I'm sure to.
He's a super guy. I've written him quite a few times on astro stuff.
He's always willing to help.

Hi, Sony shooters! I just got my a7iii last week and it's amazing with my Canon glass so far. The Sigma adapter was recommended by a friend and it does not disappoint. I'm very excited to see how the new camera compares with my 5DIV. I may have to shoot side by side with a friend and see what happens. I posted the 2 flower images I got yesterday. No editing, just JPEG and adjusted to post here, so not full resolution. Having fun posting here before going back to work in July. Hope to get to know some of you before going back into the classroom.

Welcome to Sonyland Suzyview. Just maybe you'll end up selling the EOS gears off
Then again you may end up selling off the Sony
Either way have fun.

I shot today with a9+MC-11+EOS 400DOii. I'll be sore tomorrow!

Oh, I doubt I'll part with the lens line-up I have now. What I don't think I will keep forever are my EF-M gear. Now that I have the a7iii, I doubt I'll choose to pick up the other. I just love L lenses.

I just need to figure out how to turn the skin smoothing off as its really aggressive.

It's usually under beauty mode settings.

The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Little Flower was completed in San Antonio in 1931. I had some nice directional light and clouds the morning I shot this.

As well as it works, you're shooting a watered down implementation. Everything is a little faster, smaller, smoother, seemless with native lenses. At minimum, give the inexpensive third party and/or non GM primes a try.

Obviously I'm a fan of the wannabe-g's (the Samyangs/Roks/etc.)
In fact I'm still a fan of the NEX line of lenses.
