Engadget Logo Engadget Japanese version of α 7C will shutter "more broken!" "I would say, a reliable fast shooter

Facing the camera and the photo posture, if there are 10 people, 10 people are different, but for me, the act of taking a picture refers to the act of instantly cutting off the point of contact between one's mental image, landscape and reality. Basically, they are snapshots, and photography is not so much a "diary" to record days as a time to write "poems". What happens if such a person gets a camera like SONY's α 7C? it took me about two weeks to experience it! The specification is almost the same as the popular α 7III. Although it is a full-size camera, it looks very compact. If you wear a small lens, it is most suitable to be a fast shooter, and wearing a telescopic lens will not become so unbalanced. What you see every day, what you can feel, the existence that can be greatly expanded in one or two circles.

In fact, the debut of my SLR camera is Sony's entry-level machine. About ten years ago. However, lose the weight to let go, then full-size words RX1R, the rest of the RX100M2 and M7 and other "Condiji" owned, light attention to action. So, in the fall of 2020, when I learned that the small full-size camera α 7C was about to go on sale, I, who was slightly hit, went to the Sony store in Ginza to check before it went on sale.

But. Because of the embrace at that time, I couldn't buy it (tears). In the process, I became infatuated with the FUJIFILM X series of APS-C sensors, as I wrote in this article. Recently, I have also been playing with old lenses and somewhat unreliable retro cameras.

So, in this trend, now come to my hands of α 7c. I got it after all kinds of things, and to be honest, I thought about it. Sure enough, a camera that takes a good picture is justice. All of a sudden, it became very cool. The essence of Japanese technology, a powerful guy who is tightly crammed into a small shell. It was a very dangerous shutter feeling, and the camera said, "A little more broken, a little more broken." It's okay. I'll be there.

By the way, what are the shutter times? How old do you think you are? Do you think it's less? I think I may have very little. Because it is digital, you only need to take one picture as much as you like. If it is a snapshot of the same object, you can take two shots at most. After I started shooting the film camera, it was like holding my breath and taking a picture of everything I could. ) so far, this type may not press the shutter more and more.

Well, it will be changed. If it's α 7C. For me, I pressed a lot of shutters. Just like white rice, constantly pushing.

This time the borrowed lens has two single focus. Wide-angle FE24 mm F2.8G (photo at the top of the page) and bright FE 35 mm F1.8. After a try, both sides realized that they were not used to wide-angle treatment. I would like to laugh with my own eyes no matter what. Perhaps it is because of the cold winter season, there is no too beautiful scenery. In spite of this, I took it to Ueno Park and took pictures in a spacious place. Many pictures of sparrows are clipped. Even if it is enlarged, it is still full-size and feels good.

About 35 mm, I still want to see it. And if you are busy during the day, you can only take pictures at night, so the F1.8 which can illuminate very brightly is very good. Although it is about 1.5 times the size of the 24 mm lens, the body of α 7c is very small, so it doesn't have any sense of resistance. Compared to this, the joy of being able to shoot with comfortable brightness and perspective is better. Even if it is dark, it can be taken beautifully, so it also challenges the portraits that are not usually made in Shibuya at night. Let me shoot on the street with my favorite musician and friend Shizai Sugawa, and let me take a picture. This picture will be very interesting even if you don't use special equipment. I want to put the red lantern in. Please stand here.

This shot can be taken very well at home anyway. Put it on the table and pat the cat with a little attention. Although he is a fool of his parents, he has never been so cute. Why? Just buy it for the fact that your cat is so cute. The reason is enough.

By the way, I also wear my own lens. Sometimes they are asked to record photos during the interview, so there are second-hand α 7SII, where they always wear Tamlong's 28-200 mm F2.8-5.6zoom lens. I attached it to α 7C and hurriedly went to observe the wild birds.

Although they are birds that extend to 200 mm and a little further away, because they are full-size, they can be cut to a grudging place where they feel "feel good" to enjoy. The oranges in the calves of the idol river cicada in the park are basked in the sun. (the blue back is lovely. Futile, sharp-eyed wild duck, standing heron, I'm glad to see you, thanks to the camera.

Obviously in Tokyo, if you run on a motorcycle, you will be able to come into contact with such nature. Although it is a motorcycle, my favorite car is a little tortoise. Blo Luo Jia Xia Kang! The motorcycle, which makes a loud sound, is really a means of transportation in Showa atmosphere. What is taken out here is an old lens. The Planar 45 mm F2 lens is purchased with the film camera contactor G1. I wanted to try it with alpha 7C anyway and installed it with an installation adapter.

Ling Wo's camera and Showa lens. This is really great. Took indescribable emotional photos. Like Planar, soft and resolution photos, flares and ghosts enter moderately, but modern cameras give a good sense of description. It's fresh! Seeing a picture of a car will be fascinating and spend the ultimate time of self-gratification (laughter).

The compact and 12-minute α 7C is like a small secret weapon. Although it looks very big, very high-standard camera is very handsome, but also very comfortable, but such as "Hey, actually need to do" this kind of camera, really like.
