Sony Alpha ILCE-7R IIIA Body

High resolution and light sensitivity improve your images in terms of sharpness, naturalness, and detail. Autofocus and tracking performance, as well as continuous shooting mode at up to 10 frames per second, have been significantly improved. Professional usability for greater efficiency! A lightweight, compact body allows for more flexible use.

With an extremely high-resolution, rear-illuminated 43.6 megapixel Exmor R CMOS full-frame sensor, ten frames per second, and extra-fast autofocus, the α7R IIIA is ahead of its predecessor. The 399 phase autofocus points cover about 68 percent of the sensor. In addition, there are 425 contrast autofocus points. Even the eye autofocus is now twice as effective as before. The 5-axis optical image stabilizer gives photographers 5.5 more stops of latitude. Videographers will be pleased with 4K videos with full pixel readout and no pixel binning.

Professionals will appreciate the two SD card slots, longer battery life, and superspeed USB port (USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type C). The camera itself is small and compact.

Rediscover the classic portrait focal length

In the past, 75 mm was considered the ideal portrait focal length, not the 85 mm that is common today. The advantage: the photographer has more leeway in image composition because the angle of view of 32.9° on

full format, 21.9° on APS-C leaves more room. The photographer can also get closer to the model during the shoot, which is especially beneficial for the atmosphere of intimacy between photographer and model in elaborate studio productions and creates serenity. In short, the 75mm focal length creates unique images that stand out from the usual portraits.

"Tiny but Absolute!"

Samyang extends the "Tiny" line of compact, lightweight lenses for the mirrorless Sony Alpha cameras to include the exotic portrait focal length of 75mm. Now the

18 mm, 24 mm, 35 mm, 45 mm and 75 mm focal lengths available. The lens is particularly compact, measuring just 69 mm in length and 65 mm in largest diameter, and is lightweight, weighing just 230 grams. The filter thread has a diameter of 58 mm, and the lens hood is removable.

The highest imaging quality is provided by 10 elements in 9 groups, including 2 high refractive index (HR) glass lenses and 3 ultra-low dispersion (ED) glass lenses. All glass elements are multi-coated with Samyang's proprietary Ultra Multi Coating (UMC). The coating prevents reflections and chromatic aberrations and also ensures an exactly color-true image. Due to the 9 blades of the aperture, highlights in the bokeh appear as beautiful round circles. Combined with the extremely high glass quality of the lenses, the result is a fantastic lens that delivers images that are crystal clear in resolution and absolutely sharp from the center to the far corners, even with the aperture open.

Novelty Custom Switch

New to this lens is the Custom Switch, where you would actually expect the AF/MF switch to be. It can be switched between Mode 1 and Mode 2. The special feature here is that the two switch positions can be assigned by the user. This is done when the lens is connected to the computer via a Lens Station and the Lens Manager software. Currently, both switch positions can be freely assigned with the modes "manual focus", "manual iris" and "auto focus".

More modes can be added via firmware update, which is also imported via the Lens Station and the Lens Manager, as soon as Samyang launches them. The Lens Station is generally used to play firmware updates to lenses. You can use it to customize the lens to your individual needs.

Super fast autofocus, whisper quiet

Thanks to a linear stepper motor, autofocus is quiet, fast and accurate. Between just 0.12 and 0.20 seconds is required to focus between each of the outermost positions in the lens, depending on the selected focus preference and direction of movement, making it the perfect companion for use with moving subjects. At just 23.03 dB of noise, the AF 75mm F1.8's focus is as quiet as a whisper. This also makes the lens ideal for filming with autofocus.

Suitable for portrait, travel, city and details

With its focal length of 75mm, this lightweight telephoto lens is primarily suitable for portrait photography. But you'll also get great results with travel and cityscapes with the Samyang AF 75mm F1.8 FE you will get your money's worth.
