Sony A7 II


impossible la, probably just for body

Ya, you are right, body only. got confirmation from Piayu. For a moment I thought maybe got some kind of deal or lobang happening there :).
 

Hi everyone, I just recently purchased the A7II with kit lens and have few questions to ask:

(1) what is the recommended third party lens alternative for Sony FE 16-35/f4 (to expensive for me)
(2) any third party remote commander (cable or cable-less)

Thanks in advance.

For wireless remote control, why don't you just use its embedded Smart Remote Control, together with the free Play Memories app on your smartphone? Here's more info on that:

Alternatively you can buy the Sony RMT-DSLR2 Wireless Remote, whjch is not too expensive at $39, or get a third party one at eBay for around $10-15.

Sorry I don't have anything to share on the lens in question, but you will surely need an adapter for a 3rd party lens.

Call T3 electronic hub. They can transfer out from dfs zone to the outlet outside. No GST too, cheaper than street price.

What's the average price of A7MII selling here now? I'm going HK in a few weeks time and thought of buying there but heard no price difference. Anybody bought from HK & care to share the price you paid?

Has anyone purchased from valuebasket.com before? Their prices are better than the shops and offer 36 mth warranty, but just not sure of their reliability.

How is the AF for A7II compared to A6000? Particularly using Zeiss 2470 F4
 

How is the AF for A7II compared to A6000? Particularly using Zeiss 2470 F4

I've just bought my A7II and tried my Zeiss 55mm F4 lens on a colleague's A6000. Don't feel any significant difference in the AF speed. Can't comment on the Zeiss 2470 as I've not tried it on A6000.
 

I've just purchased the A7II. Noticed that battery life drains pretty quickly. Took less than 50 pics and battery life is down to 50%. Is this a known issue with the camera? For my DSLR, a full charge allows me to shoot over 300 photos.

what kind of conditions did you use it in, and did you charge the battery beforehand, or used it right out of the box?
 

Anyone use L Plate for A7II? Where to buy and how much?
 

any bro here upgraded from A7 to A7 II?

Not too sure if $600+ price difference is justified for steadyshot inside aka in body stabilisation, better grip, slightly better AF and what else?

But from camera size, Sony A7 II [599 g] weights 21% (125 grams) more than Sony A7 [474 g].

Worth every cent. The overall feel of the mkii is so much better than mki. Go try it out.
