Short shipment delay of the new Speemadster 50mm f/0.95 FE lens. And new review!


The amount of preorder of the new Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Full Frame E-mount lens was much bigger than expected. Therefore shipment will start on June 18 and not the first week of June. Also the name of the lens chanced from Mitakon Speedmaster to ZY Optics Speedmaster. And the producer website changed too in http://ift.tt/1jGOwrD.


You can preorder the lens at eBay Hong Kong (free worldwide shipment). It’s also sold via MXcamera Europe eBays tore (Click here).


There is also a new review from Yannick Ciancianelli:



The lens is, as expected, rather soft wide-open. But I have to say that I find the result very pleasing and I must admit that it is my favorite aperture on the lens. The 0.95 resulting images are so milky silky smooth. It’s like an almost 100% bokeh picture. Yeah, it’s like…chocolate mousse! Mmmmh.

Sony adds silent mode and 15.3 stops in RAW via fw upgrade on the new Sony A7S!


Our friend David from Photoclubalpha got a confirmation from Sony that the Sony A7s has a complete silent shutter mode! Early beta testers of the A7s got a firmware upgrade that adds the feature. The firmware fixes and upgrades are:



- α7S now offers a ‘Silent Shooting’ mode

- ISO range for Movie Shooting extended to ISO100 – 102400, expandable to ISO100 – 409600

- Dynamic Range extended to 15.3 stops as sensor RAW output



David writes:



This is not the same as the Electronic First Curtain shutter found on the A7, A99, A77, A6000 and so on but conspicuously absent on the A7R. Nor is it the same as the near-silent leaf shutter terminated exposure mode of the RX100 models, RX10, or RX1 models. It’s completely free of all mechanical action and totally silent.



Sounds terrific!

from Sony (Japan)'s Facebook Wall

(SR5) NEX-5T end of production confirmed.


Just a short update to inform that also other sources confirmed the NEX-5T will be discontinued this summer. Therefore the rumor ranking has been raised from SR4 to SR5. But It’s still not 100% clear if there will be a successor or not.
