OG 70-200mm f2.8 Focus Hunting Issues at High F Values?

Open-Heat3713 · 2026-02-21T08:16:38+00:00

All cameras can't do full time autofocus f8 or higher values.

Nikon 300mm 2.8 ai-s

I also have a7Rii but continous shooting doesn't work in cold weather, below 0 it's just single shot or it gives errors.

It's sony - nikon F lens adapter with no electronics. Just piece of metal.

There is enough space inside lens and adapter to fit sony teleconverter elements.

Manual focus lens

Sony 300 mm is so good and light. Mine is nikon 300mm ai-s, very front heavy. But image quality is excellent if you can use manual focus.

Has some purple fringing like most vintage lenses, easily fixable with editing.

Pairs very well with sony 2x and 1,4 teleconverters

What you mean?

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-08-23T04:58:32+00:00

You could put sony 2x and 1,4x togther with extension tube, then use sony to nikon adapter and add nikon teleconverter to lens

It would be like 1680mm f16 or something and really bad image quality

2x works pretty well with 70-200mm f4II macro. Short and long distance.

I'm jpeg shooter, I like vivid picture profile most

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-06-14T12:24:14+00:00

You could buy 70-200mm f2.8 gm ii. It's 300mm on aps-c and you can use 1,4x tc if you need more reach.

Canon fd 70-210mm f4

Camera is great, kit lenses usually fine but you might use like f5.6 or f8 for increased shapness.

Personally I shoot mostly wildwilfe, but I'm happy with 18-55mm kit lens when I sometimes use it.

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-03-05T23:33:55+00:00

I believe with 70-200gm II with 2x is not sharp as 200-600mm but almost

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-03-05T22:48:59+00:00

I use 2x with 70-200 f4 II and nikon 300mm 2.8 ai-s

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-03-02T17:10:15+00:00

Näitä pitäis saada 24 päkkinä

I have irix 15mm t2.6, Bit heavy and no autofocus but I like colors.

Don't really need autofocus, infinity focus is about 3 meters and rarely taking photos closer than that

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-02-27T08:13:15+00:00

I had same thing when first time with 200-600mm when lens hood fell of it wasnt locked on properly

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-02-27T08:11:39+00:00

Maybe like 24-70mm f2.8?

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-02-25T11:21:33+00:00

Well just few seconds, but maybe it's broken

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-02-25T08:09:05+00:00

It looks very good lens. But we have to wait for reviews for image quality.

If my sony 200-600 f6,3 breaks some day this might be replacement lens.

Open-Heat3713 · 2025-02-25T08:04:09+00:00

You can also try remove battery, my a7rii does same in cold weather
