A7r with Tamron 150-600 but no raw in JPEG+RAW setting?


Recommended Posts

I am using the LA-EA4 sony adapter to fit the Tamron 150-600 lens with stunning results but it only seems to take JPEGs even though the camera is set to JPEG+RAW , it will take RAW if the camera is set to RAW only, has anybody got any suggestions please.

I cropped this down 50% for ease of viewing but its still large sorry about that

Cool photo. Sometimes import settings for photo editing software will show JPEG's only when both JPEG and RAW are present on the SD Card. I would check those settings and/or check directly the content of the SD Card.

Dieselhead,

 

I am also using the LA-EA4 sony adapter to fit the Tamron 150-600 lens with stunning results (on the A7II and have had no problem generating the RAW file with the JPEG + RAW settings.  I think Timde may be right.

 

Here is a terrible test shot; I attach it only as an example of a RAW file generated with the above set up.

Just another bland test shot with the Tamron 150-600 for those that have not tried it; this one is at 300mm at f/8.  Very sharp lens.  Is it my favorite lens of all time?  No, but perhaps the best new lens value I ever got and it is more than capable.

It doesn't need to shoot always with heavy caliber onto sparrows! I have done

this with heavy glasses on medium format cameras, as well as with 35mm DSRL for many years!

This attached hand held shot is shot within an distance of approx. 4 Km. Lateron, someone told me, that there was an roofer working on top of the main castle

tower!

    • I'd opt for a small zoom, but I must admit that there seems to be a dearth of lenses in the e-mount in the 24-50mm range -- for some reason.  I have a small 24-70mm, but that's an a-mount Tamron.  Maybe you can find something by looking at lenses slightly longer.  I have a heavy, but small 24-100mm a-mount, and Tokina made a 24-200mm a-mount.  Maybe there are similar lenses in the e-mount.  Kill three birds with one stone.
    • I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.
    • Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
