From this photo, I can see there is a yellow/violet patten inside the Speedmaster. It might be a sign that this lens will have color shift (see http://forum.mflenses.com/color-changeshift-on-fast-lenses-t68815,highlight,%2Bcolor.html) . Could you help me to check if the lens have a visible color shift when you change the aperture?


Yes, I will keep that in mind Wink

I see. Thank you, Lars.

With your new combo, you can take low light photos handheld without using a high ISO. I will buy a A7II next year after I thin out my collection of lenses. Smile

I read that the IBIS will stay deactivated after a Sony OSS lens had been mounted, that it won't work with an adapted lens then and there is no way to activate it, resp. the only way to activate it again is by mounting a non OSS Sony lens first:

Sure do! let's hope Sony will make the A7II's IBIS work with adapted lenses as well as it possibly can. ( freaked by the thought that obstacles could be there by intent )

for now at least a workaround had been discovered, quote: "If you unmount (take off) an OSS lens without turning the camera off (or at least turn it off after you have removed the lens) then when you attach a third party (dumb) adaptor ‘steady shot’ (IBIS) continues to work normally"

Sony release a firmware update which improves the performance of IBIS. Anyone have tested on their camera yet?

Sony did a great job with that new firmware, the IBIS improved significantly
