A7Riv & 20mm fe 1.8G


Recommended Posts

Don't know if this should be in the camera section or the lens section .....

This sample is of a night shot that i took at night @f16 on the above lens. Does anyone here know what these circular bands are ???. Its present on Raw files when i try and crank the exposure up a little in post.  It happens with or without a polarising filter as i thought it might have been from some sort of glare from the diaphragm on the sensor.

Any ideas ???

maybe lens glare? does same happen in video? what about different lens?

Some form of glare was my inital thoughts too, but don't have a second lens to test with it just now.

What's really strange is the out of Camera JPG's are not affected and only the raw files as i shoot both raw/jpg at the same time.

Have tried it in a few different software packages like camera raw/ lightroom and on1. They all have the profiles for this lens so its not down to software i don't think ?

I'm shooting with the same setup and keep getting these green orbs.

Shading compensation just fixes the vignetting I think?

It's a circular pattern applied to the RAW data before writing the RAW file in an attempt to fix vignetting. But it's not perfect, so it can cause what appears to be a circular banding - Especially when the exposure is heavily pushed in post.

nice, I saw this just now

What do you think about chromatic aberration correction?  turn it off?

Not sure. I don't know if the CA correction is only applied to the JPEG, or if it is also applied to the RAW file. If the latter, you could turn it off if you want to do it yourself. But it shouldn't be anywhere near as bad as the vignette correction can be for underexposed images as CA tends to occur in high contrast areas.

Does CA and Shading Compensation affect video?

I heard that the CA correction is exclusively applied to the JPEG. However, I'm not 100% sure.

    • 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
