thanks! i have no idea how to buy them without your links..
His stomach was gurgling from hunger, since this panhandling/begging requires persistent hustling for handouts. This site is such a joke.
hahahahaha
i cannot agree more with you 🙂
Yet you keep getting lured here, like a moth to a flame. Moths have very tiny brains, is that your problem too.
Where are the pre-orders for European buyers?
which reminds me of:

You were always spot on with this meme, whether it was for wooden rx100 grips, curved sensor perfume bottles or something along that line… But now you just missed it. These new lenses will rock hard.
i’m sure the lenses will be superb event at f2. the point is about some amazing “news” and “rumors” and of course lots of click here 🙂
Sorry Nwimu. Just an error in picking up the category. Now I moved it to deals 🙂
Feed your cat nwimu!
I’ve had an 85mm 1.4 for almost 3 years now. And that 1.4 comes in handy. Couldn’t ever see demoting my lens to a 1.8. And I’ve had the original 24-70 and don’t know why a faster AF would do any good on a real A mount since the AF in-camera on my a99 is atrocious. One reason why people are so disappointed was with the first a7 update after only a year, a lot of us thought, finally a camera company is going to ditch the one update every 3 and a half years route–especially for a near-great camera yanked from the womb half-formed like the a7s.
“The AF using the 24-70 F2.8 was atrocious”. Was this before or after the lens fell off the balcony, mine focuses fast and accurately on the A99. Are you just making $hit up, I think you were yanked from the womb with your brain half formed.
Yep I agree. I used to have the ZA 145 but sold it since it seldom got used enough on trips due to its weight. Still miss it but I still have my ZA 24 & ZA 50 and they are sharp on my A900. The new 16/35 – 24/70 is all the proof I needed to keep from jumping ship which I almost did last week.
no a-mount body Dmm!!
Head’s up to Admin, the old SR3 rumor was head on… even thought I didn’t believe in the auto focus, thought the Tout line had it already…
85 f1.8 for $1200, SONY loooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
