  1. Yesterday Gariz also posted pics of its A7ii half case on Facebook. Unlike this Chinese model, tripod mount is off the center, though.

  2. TBH, these cases look about as cool and useful as those black vinyl hood bras on cars in the 80’s. They look uncomfortable, they look a bit tacky, and you’re only really protecting the camera for the guy that eventually buys it from you (unless you’re lucky enough to drop it 2 feet straight off the ground and have it land on the bottom (?) and not bounce).

    IDK. Why do people buy things like this?

    1. Also, who wants to draw attention to their camera? I’ve seen many pros black out the brand and the logos– and this is the perfect camera to do that with since it is smaller than most expensive cameras. Unless you never travel out of a white suburban bubble, advertising that you have $3K (plus) equipment around your neck isn’t a brainy thing to do.

      1. The reason pros and non fan boys put black tape over the manufactures name is to prevent fan boys from approaching and asking dumb questions.

          1. Funky extroverts are the most annoying of all breeds. Like the arrogant idiot in class that won’t shut up. But whatevs. Dope car. The dopetastic funked out irony is fly az heck.

    1. Not any weirder than NEX becoming more popular only after stealing Alpha name, Alpha menu, Alpha stabilization, Alpha grip style… I’m sure your wish for bigger will be answered sooner or later. Or just get an a99 now and call it a day. Consider the larger grip, longer battery life, full articulating screen, and no wobbles lens mount a free bonus.

          1. I want to try them out on the type of subject i prefer and knock your photography into stoneage with the equip you prob still use XD
            If its 16mm or pro i don’t really want to even see it XD
            M43 depth of field and rendering..no..APSC same, actually i want to use medium format ASAP
            Lets be honest at least about what looks realistic…
            not realistic economy of armchair sitting or pro

          2. Stop speaking in codes, riddles and non sequitur statements. Unless you’re using a translator you must be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. You’re not making sense!

          3. Pictorial one side of fence, objective other, hipster on the fence
            Any realistic photography from any source to show?
            I will also look..
            even you trolls have it all wrong…
            under properties for file it says Canon EOS 5D Mark II f/2
            now heres a mystery..is it infact hahahahaha, the author certainly said some were shot with 85mm 1.2…

            Can i upload pic direct?

          4. Get a job, and i will carry on fine with my art without you
            You dont know anything, you presume to know everything
            The problem for you is that your role only entitles you to labour upon politics
            That makes you no better than the politicians
            No better than the people who did nothing to stop how it is now
            The problem with you is there are smarter people than you
            people such as myself
            What Is This?
            Image stitching
            You have laboured upon action but beyond that is something greater…no limits
            That is where an artist goes..
            HaHaHaHa..now i have related the principles,and there are no limits with image stitching but for expense and the matter of realtime…so…
            who has realtime sussed, like really?
            XD
            Um cough* me of course
            I can shoot with my beloved 35mm sharp, i can shoot the subject and i can composite extension to that 🙂 Yes…i lose some detail on the subject, who cares? who wants every wrinkle, and age is like vintage 🙂 Just add the subject as composite to the stitched longer lens shots and super shallow beyond subject depth and around context shot separately and cumulatively and with patience with a well paid model..end cough* now do i get my pay now?
            So…

          5. It would seem that you are, at the very least, autistic, at worst, completely bonkers!

            The only other possibilty is that you are not a native English speaker and using the worst automatic translation tool available.

            If the former is the case, nothing I say will make any difference, but if it is the latter, would you find someone who does speak English to help you, or simply not bother trying to post on an English website?

          6. Hmm speaking yes, im good at that as well as photography i guess…afterall, its the only REALTIME OBJECTIVE mode of expression bar procanikon right?

          7. What does any of that mean?

            If I put my keyboard in the road and let the next 47 cars drive over it I feel sure anything it produced would make more sense!

          8. It would seem you are impersonating mario ‘:I another troll? there are nintendo fan sites too you know, and the gameboy camera was at best a low quality image maker with an interesting printer attachment, but a flash in the pan regards Sony..thank you and goodbye

          9. Either you have taken too many drugs, or not enough of the right ones! I think you need to seek help.

          10. Please remove the contax to e mount adapter i got stuck by trying to convert m42 on my helios 85mm by way of slim contax which all got stuck .. :I I want to use it on tilt because it has a large sensor coverage >:(

        1. All I did was speak the truth Hans. Don’t put words in my mouth. I didn’t say anything was crap. I just said NEX is respectable because they’re stealing Alpha heritage. Folks like them better now becoming more like real Alphas. What part of that do you disagree with?

      1. Wow, that all just goes over my head…how about I translate that to anyone new or interested minus the BS, NO APSC, AND E mount forever. Medium Format SR3

    2. Not at all, I hope the A9 will fix that. I prefer a grip where all fingers are on place. But so many people already complain about the size of A7II, I really think different.
      Dont gimme that “buy A99”-cr@p, I want no mirror at all…

      1. Do you think when the A99 wakes up every morning it’s sensor says to itself, “mirror mirror on the wall, who has the best ISO of them all.”

      1. This gay leather case was made just for you, the stitching will match your purse and fashion accessories prefectly.

          1. Don’t worry Mikey, I’m sure they can build you a special one that matches your eyes. Then when you and Yeppy go on a date, you will both be color coordinated.

    1. Great…now you qualify as pro level alongside my status as one of the very ‘last TRUE masters of art’ who found themselves with absolute expression in photography. Congratulations.( I wonder if i am the only one in photography :I Or indeed if photography is the last art proper..more on that later… Hint: probably yes )

    2. Nikon D750 is awesome! As a Nikon shooter myself I look at the camera in awe compared ot my D7000.
      But it still has a mirror, still behind the times. I am so eager to sell my D7000 + Lenses and switch to what I hope will be a fantastic Sony A7000 when it comes out. I brought my wife the A6000 and it’s brilliant, quality is excellent, plus when you just shove a small lens on it, so easy to carry about with no weight concerns.

    3. to be honest, these shots look more like beeing shot with a 2010 smartphone. Sure you didn’t waste money, troll?

    4. Great shots but can you show us soul troll? Sorry, i mean i cant shoot very well, i mean others can a lot better and well their shots are very pro and all that and i know i have a long way to go if ever… can you show us soul though troll?
      hmmmmmm
      What is soul troll?

        1. Subjective and anonymous troll no longer tolerated as such…
          The net is closing on such till objectivity has been demonstrated…

    5. Do I need to audit my artistic taste?

      D750 for sure is a very great DSLR, capable of producing outstanding images, but the shots above (except the last one) are for my tase far below average in several disciplines.

    6. These pics have the sensor issue Nikon is fixing, right? Either way, the brilliance does indeed shine through. People here should be conducting more regular audits of their artistic taste.

    7. You wanna blame the sony sensor right?
      Its not the sensor but the AF sensor reflecting. Canon 6d, 5d3 have it too, so does 810d but not that strong. Saw some tests. Google it. Its interesting.

    8. The NEW objective criteria for all photos:
      don’t care if pro or pro looking,
      only realistic and realistic looking.

    9. Reminds me that if I gave the best camera in the world to a monkey I still wouldn’t get any better photos from the monkey than if I gave him a disposable camera. Thanks for reminding me of that.

  3. I just don’t understand why you’d bother buying this. It adds nothing practical, and just gives one extra thing to worry about. Pointless.

      1. As expected you got not reply after that dumb clueless statement he made. Seriously some people…lol

  4. From reading the whacked out and off topic comments from some below, it seems that nothing brings out the whacko nut jobs like leather does!

  5. Previously the Bamboo plate, now this ugly half case – where I actually don’t care whether it is from Gariz or Paris Hilton or whoever…

    Am I missing some artistic taste – or are there other guys who find it as useless as I do?

    Honestly, when a lens is attached to the cam, what advantage does this thing bring to me?

    1. The bamboo plate is ugly but has some functional value (pinky rest and balance). Leather cases are mostly for image IMO, but do prevent scratches I suppose. Some people dig it; some don’t. But let them be, I say. There’re worse crimes.

    2. Actually no! This particular half case is pretty good I had the brown version with my A7 when I had one. Adds additional grip with larger lenses convenient battery door and is metal reinforced base. Cheaper than the Gariz version as well.

  6. Fast little chinese hands. 12 hours works shifts .. Imagine if you were to work 12 hours a day doing robot like work.

    1. Imagine if you were a racist pig, hanging out in a first world country, trolling camera forums– unaware of both your own racism and the fact that you are actually biting the hand that feeds you with your clever insight.

    1. Okay Supreme Leader. I hear you’re really up on your tech stuff. How’s that iPhone 3G doing? Crazy fast compared to the 2G, right? Must haul on those 3 analog cell towers you got there.

  7. New patent: ? mine 🙂 auto shutter speed based upon lighting AND subject movement speed 🙂
    For? Sony cams 😀 sorry canikon.. XD
    Oh yeah, and JUST use procanikon… as manual aperture and focus are for Idiots who shoot only statues: like with the Sony A7 cams 🙂
    With this brand new tech and the SR4 Sony Medium Format interchangeable camera we will be setup! let battle commence XD
