  1. I got an a7RII in November, and a Sony FE4/70-200 G OSS in December, both new from B&H. About a month after I got the lens, it started acting up. I'd turn it on, and it would make clicking noises, and with each noise it would switch from showing the F-number on the display to showing just two dashes, and it would not focus at all. Later on, the lens would work properly. Often, but not always, the malfunction was associated with cooler weather, between 35 and 55 degrees F. I'm not sure if the condition is the fault of the camera or the lens. I managed to get video of the condition when it happens. The lens was sent to Precision Camera under warranty. (Unfortunately, it's been more than 30 days, or I would have tried to send it back to B&H for an exchange.) The lens came back with the vague statement, "repaired lens, cleaned, returned to factory specs." It still doesn't work right. The weird thing is that the malfunction occurs ONLY with this camera and lens combination. The lens functions properly (so far) on my FS700, and with the a7RII, all other lenses function perfectly. Also, I'm afraid that if I send the combination in for repair, because it is intermittent the condition won't happen for the technician. Has anyone else experienced such problems with this camera/lens combination?
  2. I am in the middle of transitioning from Nikon to Sony a7rii. Does anyone have experience comparing the native f4 lens versus adapting the Sony A-mount lens? I have read that the f4 is certainly not small ( just as big as the 70-200 f2.8 Nikon that I'm "downsizing" from) and softer at the 200mm range. I am hoping to find a lens that is optimal for low light theatriccal performance. shots. I would also consider shooting a 135/2, crop mode if necessary for reach. Size, price, and image quality are main values here.
