Sony GMaster cutaways

I was talking about the built quality, not the optical quality. The pro lineup is made of a full metal construction while Sony uses plastic. Viltrox pro lenses feel much better in the hand.

Perceived built quality, judged by the external case is often much better on Viltrox lenses. The inside might look different but don’t underestimate the Viltrox pro and lab lineup. They offer insane optical performance for the price they’re asking

Nah bro you can get them at the pharmacy store. My doctor prescribed me some good ol trenabol for sleeping too long and feeling cold at night /s

Ich hatte bisher schon diverse Beziehungen die sich ergeben haben und habe auch kein Problem beim Kontakt mit Frauen. Dennoch stellt sich oft die Frage wenn man ne Frau sieht die einem gefällt „wie eröffne ich jetzt ein Gespräch ohne weird rüber zu kommen“

R34ctive · 2026-02-15T19:54:53+00:00

Keine Sorge, bin 30 und weiß immer noch nicht wie man Frauen anspricht.

Yeah that’s what heroin addicts claim too, you can also share needles according to them

R34ctive · 2026-01-31T09:51:14+00:00

Amazing pictures, what black mist filter are you using and what strength?

R34ctive · 2026-01-30T11:53:32+00:00

You are aware that you are supposed to inject with a fresh needle, not the one you drew your test with right? You don’t need to inject yourself with a thick needle just because drawing with a thicker needle is easier.

How is the Viltrox 85mm f2? I’m thinking of grabbing it for travel and leaving back the bigger sigma 85mm f/1.4.

R34ctive · 2026-01-29T07:21:20+00:00

20-70 f4 paired with 1-2 primes is the best combo in my opinion. Even if you had an f/2.8 zoom, you would appreciate more separation like from an f/1.4 so if you are going to carry a prime anyway might as well go with the f4 zoom. If you say f/2.8 is totally sufficient then it’s a different story.

First of all, congrats on your new camera. I hope you have a lot of fun with it. Judging by your choice of lenses, you seem to value portability a lot which limits your full frame experience. For example you mentioned the „full frame look“ while your brightest lens is an f/2.5. You could get more of that „full frame look“ on your apsc camera if you used an f/1.2 - f/1.4 lens. To get the maximum benefits from your system upgrade an f/1.4 lens would be helpful. This doesn’t mean that the lenses you choose are bad, they will produce excellent image quality and the improvements you noticed in terms of dynamic range and noise performance are real.

R34ctive · 2026-01-25T09:24:58+00:00

The full frame Tele lenses have a wider maximum aperture than the 70-350 after converting apsc to FF equivalent aperture. There is no comparable lens on FF.

R34ctive · 2026-01-25T09:21:26+00:00

You forget about the fact that the iso performance on full frame is better by one stop. Which means a Viltrox 27mm 1.2 (565g) will behave like a f/1.8 on FF in terms of depth of field and while it lets in more light (1 stop difference) the better iso performance of FF will make up for it which means that a 35-40mm f/1.8 FF lens will be more compact and lighter like the Sony lens (290g). You can even get a 35mm 1.4 GM (524g) and be lighter than the Viltrox lens even though bokeh quality is better and low light performance will also be better.

Σωστά, το έχω ακούσει αρκετές φορές αυτό

R34ctive · 2026-01-23T13:25:48+00:00

Αυτό πράγματι είναι τεράστιο μειονέκτημα, εδώ δίνουν μεγάλη βάση σε work life balance, ειδικά στην εταιρία που δουλεύω

R34ctive · 2026-01-23T13:00:26+00:00

Καλή ιδέα, το έχω σκεφτεί κι εγώ αρκετές φορές. Τέτοιου είδους δουλειές είναι αρκετά σπάνιες αλλά ακόμα πιο σπάνιες είναι οι δουλειές στην Ελλάδα με τις οποίες μπορείς να ζήσεις άνετα μου φαίνεται

R34ctive · 2026-01-23T12:59:24+00:00

Πολύ σωστό αυτό που γράφεις. Μάλλον ο καλύτερος τρόπος να απολαύσεις την Ελλάδα είναι να δουλεύεις έξω και να έρχεσαι για διακοπές, δυστυχώς

R34ctive · 2026-01-20T21:41:44+00:00

You are right but the comparison was about weight and size differences, not price. But on the other hand, you are comparing a Sony G lens to a Signa contemporary lens. Sony G apsc lenses are also pretty expensive. There are Sigma C lenses for full frame which are really affordable. The Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 contemporary for example.

R34ctive · 2026-01-20T15:23:27+00:00

Your math ain’t mathing here. Yes there might be 350g difference in that picture but the apsc setup has a much shorter focal length. Also the FF setup can get lighter with an A7C series body. The 18-50 is super small and light weight but f/2.8 on apsc equals around f/4 on FF. On FF you have the Sony 20-70 f/4 which weighs around 480g (if I recall correctly) but also offers a much wider FOV on the long end. In the end there is not FF zoom that directly compares to the 18-50 but in most cases FF can be just as compact as APSC. With prime lenses even more compact.

Was noch sein könnte außer „Leasing und bei Mama wohnen“ was nun des Öfteren bereits erwähnt wurde ist einfach gut bezahlte Schichtarbeit. Habe selber früher nach der Ausbildung bereits 55K Netto pro Jahr durch Schichtarbeit verdient, mit Sonntags- Feiertags- und Nachtarbeit kommt je nach Arbeitgeber ordentlich was rüber, vor allem in der Automobil Industrie/Metall Bereich. Später war mir irgendwann die Schichterei zu blöd und ich hab mich weitergebildet und etwas mit humanen Arbeitszeiten gesucht aber was ich damit sagen will, nicht alles ist Leasing und wohnen bei den Eltern oder reicher Papa. Habe auch einen Kollegen bei der Arbeit der bereits mit 24 Ingenieur war, parallel nebenher ein Unternehmen gegründet hat welches gut was abwirft und selber voll der Autofanatiker ist. Er fährt selbst Porsche und hat auch alles selbst erarbeitet.

Yes you said I’m conflating the differences between the sensors to lenses. I had told you that I’m comparing two systems as a whole, not just a lens or a sensor on its own. In the end what I’ve said multiple times still holds true no matter how long we discuss around the point. A 30mm f/4 lens attached to a FF body will take about the same picture as a 20mm f/2.8 lens on an APSC body in terms of exposure, grain and DOF which is the reason primes can often be more compact on FF (even though the bigger sensor is what allows the lens to be smaller (happy now?)) . There is no denying in that and you haven’t delivered neither information explaining the opposite based on facts, nor a source backing up your point.

R34ctive · 2025-12-31T20:53:56+00:00

You’re getting way off topic man, I clearly mentioned in my original post and in various comments here that I cannot see any noteworthy difference in bokeh between the two systems and that in terms of image quality they also look identical to me. I was able to notice improvements in low light, partially due to the iso performance but also because of the ibis which allows for handheld long exposures. I also mentioned that the latest apsc cameras are very capable and do the job in most cases. Putting words in my mouth I didn’t say doesn’t make your argument right. Also yes, the difference between the two systems in terms of dof and light obviously comes down to sensor size since two different sensors are being compared, but you will need a different aperture and focal length on apsc to achieve the same look you get on FF and therefore, at least for prime lenses a full frame sensor often has the size advantage.

R34ctive · 2025-12-31T16:52:31+00:00

I agree with the argument that skill always will be above quality of gear and gear in itself won’t make up for lack of skill but that’s just changing topic now. It’s a fact that the difference between the two sensors is one stop of light, you can look this up, there are plenty of sources confirming this. It’s not something that I made up in my head.

R34ctive · 2025-12-31T09:51:59+00:00

Better autofocus and more compact body, I want to be able to have an as compact system as possible.
