If it's not embarrassing when anybody sees you mounting 70-300 on it, same goes for 16-80 . Though Klaus anyway does it at home behind closed doors.

….hmmm, it may be not obvious here i suppose but i am actually trying to stop posting stuff, however in this case i can’t avoid saying….

 

1.  the 7r is made by sony to apparently be a small light mirrorless thingy that one might, or might not, buy for easy compact photography, yes for street photography too….that is before said creative street photographer is beaten up by natives who hate him/her showing the beauty of the species….but never mind that, this is central coast oz after all….

 

2.  the lenses of which you speak are large and heavy + need (so far on this little system) a lumpy adapter, all of which: (1) look(imho) foolish, (2) don’t fit in your pocket no matter how deep it is, and (3) catch on every little thing as you try to quickly drag the monster out of your shoulder bag….

 

….so sony in their infinate wisdom no doubt, built this little full frame thingy to be used with small, light, high quality, full frame lenses(undoubtably why they also selected zeiss as a lens maker)….so why put a large heavy lens up front….you might as well buy a slightly larger camera with a real viewfinder on which everything fits in proportion….unless….said sony actually is going to great lengths to not compete with an important company that buys sony sensors….but i could be wrong about all the above….except the bit at the end of para 2 above that is….
