Since a few days my camera equipment has grown again: I added a Sony Alpha a7R II body.
The new body replaces my previous 7R. The range of functions has been further increased. Beside the slight increase of the sensor resolution to 42 megapixels, the sensor is now mounted movable, so that all lenses are now stabilized. This works great thanks to the Metabones IV Adapter, which works fine with my 100mm f2.8 macro, the 85mm f1.2L, the 50mm f1.4, the 40mm f2.8 and also with the 17mm f4L TS-E.
Moreover, the autofocus is finally extremely improved thanks to the 399 phase contrast autofocus points which are integrated in the sensor. And last but not least, the high-ISO capability of the backside-illuminated sensor (up to ISO 102.400) is remarkable, which compensates the lack of this capability in my EOS 5DSR. Besides, I can now film in 4K with it…
However, the many features are difficult to handle because of the still complicated menu system, so I will need some time and testing. But I think the camera will be an ideal addition to my Canon system.
