I picked up the Sony f3.5-6.3 24-240MM lens today to complete the Sony setup. I have the Sony a7R II body which has the 42.4 megapixel sensor. I really didn't get to test it out today as the conditions weren't right. High winds and hardly any light.
I have to say I am impressed with the Sony a7R II body and the 24-240MM lens combination. The files sizes coming out the camera are spectacularly huge. I am shooting uncompressed RAW files. They are coming out at roughly 85.6 megabytes. Those are huge files. The dynamic range is just amazing. I can hand hold the camera at 1/5 of a second and the pictures are tact sharp. The colour science is just as good as any other camera brand although I find Canon's colour science just a tad ahead of Sony although I think Sony is catching up quickly.
I have to knock the image back a bit in jpeg format to 99% quality to get it just under 25 megabytes. At 100% resolution, the JPEG file is about 42 megabytes in size.
Tomorrow (March 14, 2020) is supposed to be nice and sunny with a high of 2 degrees Celsius. I think a trip to either Algonquin Park or Parc Omega is due. The only reason I want to go to Parc Omega is to go do some photography and got some fresh maple syrup right out of the trees.
I think I will have to take 2 128GB SD cards with me tomorrow. I have to learn not to spray and pray with the photography. The early 2013 MacBook Pro can edit the photos easily. I'm going to test editing the photos on my Windows 10 machine as well along with the 2018 Apple iPad Pro.
