Very often you will want to set the magnification and then move the lens to focus, and the danger with an AF lens is that focus may shift, even if you lock it. It can be a bit of an odd focal length but I don't think I could ever get rid of mine. How much of your shooting will be true macro in the 1:1 range? Debating the 65 vs 110.

Good luck! Just to add up - regarding AF in particular. Auto focus is not really a good idea in the macro range. Note he used a flash for these shots so the 1/80 S shutter speed isn't relevant as the flash in producing an effective exposure on less than 1/1000 S. How much of your shooting will be true macro in the 1:1 range? All pictures taken handheld. Sony claims 'dust and moisture resistance for the 90mm Macro G. On the other hand, Voigtlander (being more honest?) Canon's EOS R5 is one of the best mirrorless cameras on the market today.

Or at least until I upgrade to a body that supports IBIS. Sony 90mm G Macro vs Voigtlander 110mm Macro APO, If you believe there are incorrect tags, please send us this post using our, Re: Sony 90mm G Macro vs Voigtlander 110mm Macro APO. How on earth a macro lens is released without at least some basic weather-proofing (e.g. The Sony, although it doesn't extend externally whilst focusing, could well be prone to humidity/moisture entering via the buttons on the lens body. E.g.

Blog.pch.be » Nouveauté : Voigtländer Macro APO Lanthar 65mm F2 Asph pour Sony E ! Lenses Catalogue; Which Lenses to maximise the potential of the Sony A7RIV? I don't know how the prices or size/weight of the Voightlander compares with the Sony. I m still try to weight those pros/cons for each, see where my priorities are. Regardless of that, many people seemed very positive about this lens (rolling reviews here and here ). If the lack of image stabilization isn't much of an issue (lack of AF too - as many suggest), then, there's nothing between the Sony and the Voigtlander (that lacks both).

but you will need to live accommodate with, For me this lens will be terrific for portraits , street photography , some details shooting, proxy photography, but for real macro, I still prefer Sony 90mm macro that I find better suited with its 1:1 magnification. Normally you set the desired range or magnification before coming near your object.

As you see, I might not have a clue about photography concepts (yet! I am slightly leaning towards the Sony now - not because of the AF, OSS goodies - but mostly because I read that on 1:1 macro it is slightly sharper (the Voigtlander gains the upper hand in longer distances).

), better build quality, 3yr warranty. Then you can have 1/20 sec or more shutterspeed to prevent black background. It still receives excellent critics and I haven't come across any complains in regards to it failing in any way.

All of my above considerations assume a 'perfect' (or at least - an 'above average') copy both of the Sony/Voigtlander. In fact, the only lens I have consistently heard of issues that would warrant concern is the old Zeiss A-mount 16-50 that was popular in the early KM and Sony DSLR days. Although the 110mm Voigtlander is relatively new yet, statistically, it would live up to its reputation and be at least as good as the 2/65APO.

But if statistics are correct, then I m having less chances of picking a decent copy of the Sony (if I decided to go with the Sony). / Regarder le piqué pour un portrait sur un bord ! In my case for the particular lens, the main concern is that I ll be lucky enough to get a decent copy of it, but when purchasing time comes, I might be calling here for help to verify that! In the case of 1:1 macro shooting, only thing that should matter is the sharpness achieved by either of those two lenses whilst 1:1 and at minimum focus distance. For landscape photography I recommend to use a tripod and switching stabilization off. Some like it some not, L’objectifs produit des étoiles quand il est pointé directement vers une source lumineuse.

Magnification was not more than 1:1, but I did a little cropping in lightroom.

It's just that I only get to pick one - besides I don't really believe that anyone would be willing to pay another 1K at a later stage for owning both.

Also, have to ask - was stabilization off? Of course, usability is also important (here Sony definitely has upper hand). In fact, I ve heard complains on few Sony GM lenses failing to work properly - but I guess some failure rate is inevitable for any product/manufacturer.

Tripod is also cumbersome especially when you start shooting macro. Both lens (OSS) and body (IBIS)? Some little night sky/star photography at times, which I always found fascinating to explore (still trying to get a glimpse of the Northern Lights!) Given the fact that 1:1 macro will be my primary use of the lens, I guess the Sony makes more sense. In fact, the only lens I have consistently heard of issues that would warrant concern is the old Zeiss A-mount 16-50 that was popular in the early KM and Sony DSLR days. Handheld is easier  because you can move your camera back and forth, taking pictures, when Sharpness seams OK. For landscape I use my Sony 12-24 4,0 or Tamron 28-75 with a tripod.

Both the Sony and the Voigtlander are superb lenses, there's no single thread of doubt in my head about that - it's just that I think that if utilized to it's full potential (i.e. The sharp as a tack 90 certainly is no slouch at that either. Sometimes my complete kit for a day has been the Rx1rii (35mm) and the CV65 on the A.

We tried every model and think the Fujifilm Instax Mini 70 strikes the right balance between price and feature - the Instax Wide 300 is our choice if you crave a larger format. Which Lenses to maximise the potential of the Sony A7RIV? I borrowed a friend's a5000 (which doesn't claim any weather proofing), but still didn't have any issues. If you are using this as a close up (as opposed to macro) without flash or tripod than both auto focus and stabilization DO become important considerations. I assure you can shoot plenty of subjects handheld using AF and OSS, including moving bugs and inflight bugs. When moving slowly, insects often stay at their position. I ve done some extensive research over the subject - or should I say - not too extensive, as I ve missed the fairly recent Voigtlander 110mm Macro APO from my list of candidates.

Optically, it might as well surpass the Sony in several areas. It makes a great travel camera but isn't as refine as the best of its rivals. With multiple cameras to choose from, and options that include 8K and 6K video, can this drone give DJI a run for its money?

La bague de mise au point est un plaisir à utiliser, très large , avec des renflements concaves pour faciliter la préhension avec les doigts, avec juste ce qu’il faut de résistance pour une mise au point précise et une butée pour la distance minimale de mise au point et l’infini. Most shooting with "macro" lenses really isn't in the true macro range, but is closeup shooting at ranges just slightly closer than other lenses allow. Lack of in-lens stabilization, plus the lack of IBIS for the a6300 (hence the need for using a tripod), means that I would miss a number of shot opportunities (vs going hand-held with the Sony).

What’s the best camera for under $1500?

Longer reach should indeed be an advantage. From what I ve read, I would be mostly concerned about (lack of) stabilization here.
