When I see wish for a Sony camera that looks like this I don't se the point att all. If you are interested in big bulky cameras buy a Nikon D5 or a Canon 1DX Mark ll. These type of cameras are now targeted for the for well of amateur market. Like the Leica system. Today most professionals will not use each brands top models. They are just to heavy and pricy. I'm a professional photographer with more than 30 years experience and for me Sony A7ll is the camera, it reminds me of Nikon F3 in size and handling. The Sony A7ll is a light weight camera with really good picture quality in the right price range. My wish is for Sony is that they would develop the A7ll into a camera with better durability, better ergonomics and a menu system that some one outside of Japan could understand. That would be a camera for photography the rest are just for show off. That is why Fujifilm X-T2 is now ranked by many to be this years best camera for photography. (dpreview)

I like the A-mount! And A99 Mark 2 is an excellent camera, but Sony may be even better!
My vision of the flagship camera from Sony
 
 - E-mount (NO! Translucent Mirror Technology) + A-mount adapter in BOX
 - 42 mp sensor
 - continuous shooting at up to 8-10fps
 - 6K 24fps and 4K 48fps video (240fps in HD) in 4:2:2 on SD
 - New video codec with a higher bitrate (for support 6K, and 4K 250-300 megabit per second)
 - Support new Video Speed Class 60/90 (protocol of SD 5.0) up to 90 MB per second
 - Base ISO 400 for S-Log3 
 - Laser or IR focus lamp
 - 16-stop wide dynamic range and price not exceeding $ 3,500 for body ))))

    • I've bought a chipped adaptor in the hope of using M42 lenses on my Sony Alpha 230 with focus confirmation. This has worked with my Canon EOS 400D but that doesn't have an in-camera AF drive. However, I'm finding that the Sony's in-camera AF drive behaves as if an AF lens is attached by audibly running and there is no focus confirmation. Is there any way I can stop the drive running and have focus confirmation?
    • Thinking about control of images in low light with blur and movement I would like to experiment more with me manually varying aperture during a shot. With a manual lens this allows me to start with a small aperture and collect some fluidity and then snap lens to much larger aperture to give a more solid defined image. To date in a few quick trials I have just used a fixed exposure time judged by seeing exposure at a few apertures and then just trying my dexterity. A next step up would be that the camera closes the shutter when it has accumulated enough light. Maybe some long exposure /astronomy contexts might do that sort of thing....? To help imagine I'm thinking musicians in a bar, animals in low light, individuals in motion in some context. Mostly I seem to need near 1s exposure to synch my aperture change and have enough time. A de-clicked lens or one with a loose aperture ring would help (maybe I have at home on the shelf) but I am away with just 2 old Olympus lenses and TBH the aperture rings are a bit stiff and close to the focus ring... Any thoughts or suggestions?
    • Friends don't let friends use Luminar. They lie, their DAM is either non-existent or garbage. They tell you it's a one-time purchase with free updates for the life of the program. Problem is, they bring out a whole new program every year or two, then they stop 'updating' or even supporting the old one. They give away the last version free to suck you in to the next one. I tried them a while back and went through the entire process. When I removed it from my computer (after I cancelled my sale on the new version) I had to delete 36,000 sidecar/thumbnails of my photos, most of which I had never even opened in Luminar. It just went into my folders and automatically created all of these files.  There are many decent programs out there you can get that will stand head and shoulders above Luminar.
