Howdy...

 

I am trying to use a Canon 24-105 F4 Lens on my A6500 with the Metabones Speeedbooster adapter... It works like a charm, but I can't get image stabilization to work...neither the in-camera or the lens stabilization seems to come on.

 

I have some manual lenses that works fine with the in-body only stabilization, but my Canon lens doesn't want to let the in-body activate... I'd be happy just to be able to get the in-lens stabilization to work...

 

Has anyone else had this issue? Or has anyone else gotten in-lens stabilization to work on a Canon lens with the A6500 and Speedbooster?

 

Thanks for the help!

 

Best,

 

Ben

I use the same combo and it's great.

 

Make sure to uncheck the box on the Metabones firmware software to let the adapter choose Ibis automatically. I'm running version .55.

 

Ibis on the camera should be set to auto if it's not grayed out.

 

If you turn the lens stabilization on, the camera's Ibis turns off. If you turn the lens stabilization of, the camera's Ibis turns on.

      2 Primes or 1 Zoom?

      By bs.shoots · Posted

      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.

      Sony a6300 after shutter repair

      By dev001 · Posted

      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
