  • Sony A7 er et rigtigt godt kamera, det er meget lille, og det er så lille at jeg kan have det med alle steder hen, det kan ikke overtage mit nu værende kamera plads, fordi billedekvaliteten simpelhen ikke er god nok, men det er også fint, det koster også ...

  • Abstract:  Billeder kan snyde, og det gør de, når det kommer til Sonys Alpha7-serie. Hvad der herover ligner et kantet full-frame-kamera er i virkeligheden en kameraserie, der er væsentligt mindre og lettere end andre modeller med full-frame.Det betyder, at du her k...

  • Abstract:  Obecnie słysząc hasło „zrób zdjęcie” zapewne większość z nas wyciągnie z kieszeni smartfon z dobrym aparatem. To naturalne, bo nosimy go niemal zawsze przy sobie i możemy użyć dosłownie w ciągu kilku sekund. Ważne jednak byśmy uświadomili sobie, że nawet...

  • solidny korpus z elementami ze stopu magnezu, wygodny, dobrze wyprofilowany uchwyt, optymalna liczba elementów sterujących (w tym kilku konfigurowalnych), dobrze zorganizowane menu, dobrej jakości uchylny wyświetlacz LCD, dobrej jakości wizjer elektr
  • szumy wyższe niż u konkurencji, przeciętne wyniki dynamiki tonalnej, silne wyostrzanie i odszumianie zdjęć JPEG, pomimo neutralnych ustawień, zdolność rozdzielcza matrycy trochę gorsza niż u konkurentów, lekki banding dla najwyższych czułości i długic
  • Budowa, jakość wykonania i funkcjonalnośćSony A7 jest zdecydowanie mniejszy od swoich pełnoklatkowych konkurentów. W istocie jest to najmniejszy aparat z matrycą 35 mm i wymiennymi obiektywami. Generalnie nie można mu odmówić wysokiej jakości wykonania, b...

  • Abstract:  Pierwsze miesiące każdego roku to okres licznych premier, które jednak dopiero w najbliższym czasie zagoszczą na dobre na półkach sklepowych. Na miejsce w TOP-10 aparatów systemowych z pewnością zasłużyły takie aparaty jak Fujifilm X-T1 czy Sony A6000. Na...

  • Abstract:  Po co to nieco przydługie wprowadzenie? Z bardzo prostego powodu – osoby lepiej zorientowane w historii aparatów cyfrowych mogłyby bowiem zaprotestować, twierdząc, że cyfrowe aparaty małoobrazkowe z wymienną optyką i pozbawione lustra już istniały. Ma je ...

  • Abstract:  Bez żadnej przesady zaprezentowany w połowie października bieżącego roku model Sony A7 można określić mianem aparatu przełomowego, co podkreśla choćby sama jego nazwa. Jest to bowiem aparat bezlusterkowy wyposażony w bagnet E, a jednak nie wchodzący (przy...

  • Abstract:  Wiele miesięcy oczekiwania, wypatrywania, powątpiewania – no i w końcu jest. Sony przedstawiło bezlusterkowca A7 i A7R , oparte na pełnoklatkowej matrycy i procesorze obrazu BIONZ X. Czego możemy spodziewać się po nowej konstrukcji?Chłopaki z polskiego So...

  • Abstract:  作为多年的老尼康,手中是廉颇老矣的D700,看到索尼大法这几年的全画幅微单风生水起,心痒痒,无奈囊中羞涩,买不起A7RII,买了最便宜的A7,也是最轻巧的型号。同时配了原厂蔡司FE 35mm f/2.8、FE 55mm f/1.8。这下终于有了随身携带的致强装备。毛叔一直都喜欢拍mm拍人像,这里开个帖,陆续上些A7的人像片,和大家分享。为求方便,都是从手机app直接上片居多,画质可能有影响。A7测光还是偏保守了一点,感觉拍mm的时候主动加1/3可能好一些。文章来源: 毛叔A7 35/2.8 55/1.8人...
