well it could be worse
. As predicted expectations were far too high and people still don't get both Nikon/Canon are very conservative companies that were not going to come out with 1DX and D5s without mirror slapping day one. Sony's A7SIII is off course going to be a dazzling spectacle of specs so if you dislike sony fan comments, block them for the next few months
. But regardless, everything leaked was right except it does have eye-AF. It may be only in single shot mode, but hey it's a start! no surprises on the video spec as it is the 5D4 sensor after all. Lenses are a good start, although the lineup is going to be pathetic and anemic compared to the stablished Sony for years. you're going to be adapting most of the time and better get on with the program.
Yes, 2019 will bring new models from everybody, including canon. But today this is it...., and I'm not that impressed in just about any area except the potential of the AF system but clearly the camera is holding it back with its inability to exceed 5fps with AF and deny Eye-AF except in single shot mode. I suppose video AF will be good but the crop kills it.
Lenses things look a bit more interesting. For me, the f/2 zoom doesn't really entice me as its range is too limited over what was already limited 24-70, and in that range I rather shoot 1.2 or 1.4 primes which will have far superior bokeh. Not to say some of you will not benefit from losing wide angle FOV for an extra stop and prefer zooms vs primes. That's just not me. The rest are just boring filler lenses I'll never care for, except the 1.2 prime (it better be good for the price). Looking forward to its comparisons with the 1.4 sony and the f/0.95 noct. Pixel peeping will be made great again!
The adapters look completely overpriced except for the entry level one. Feels like a pokemon game: this one has this, this one has that...but no, can't have one with both! If you care for each feature...why not just make a SKU with all of it instead of having all these damn things laying around playing a game of find the right adapter. but choice yai!
Besides that, IMO the new mount is good news long term as it avoids clunky solutions like sticking a rear element "rear ass" inside a mount, and more compact cameras that do not look like pig snout. Best of luck to those that buy it. I'm sure it will be enjoyable.
