Interesting link. Many serious pros are now using Sony FF cameras.

I've reduced my Canon DSLR last couple months.

New gear :
1. A7r II use most with FE 25mm f2 and FE 16-35mm f4
2. A7s use most with FE 35mm f2.8, FE 85mm f1.8, FE 70-200mm f4
3. 1Dx + EF 200f2 all time

As others mentioned, I enjoy using eye and face focus from A7 series.

by the 25 f2 you mean the Batis? I still haven't managed to get my hands on one.

Yes, both Batis 25 & 85mm are wonderful. My 2cents, these should be considered as "must have" lenses for A7 shooters. The contrast, clarity, and color are just too wonderful. Prior to Batis 85mm, I used to shoot Canon 85mm f1.2 for portrait(still wonderful lens). I just sold my Canon 85mm after few hundred shots with Batis 85mm. I could not say enough about face and eye focus features in A7 series.

I'm curious about the 85, but I have little use for that FL. The 25 will be mine certainly!

Hi Scott,

This is my take. At this moment, I do not see how wildlife and sports shooters jump into mirrorless world. There is no lenses. AF tracking is not up to DSLR. Battery life is still bad. The small body style and structure is not solid as DSLR. Mirrorless bodies couldn't take the real world beating as 1dx, 5d or similar in Nikon lines.

As many already mentioned and I agreed, landscape and studio shooters might add a7 series to their kit.

Have a great weekend,
Dylan

Oldest trick in the marketing book -- trot out pro photographers who are using your stuff. Even better if they've kicked a competitor to the curb.

Buy a Sony if you want a Sony.

Buy a Canon if you want to buy a Canon.

My thoughts exactly. Not everything has to be a competition.
