would sell it for 1400 euro.

it happens in different cases, one is when I move the camera a little bit to have the subject more left or right for example. The other case is, when the subject is moving and I try to follow. This is also on land with the camera fixed on a table and moving the object a little bit.

Hi, thanks for your clarification, and the case is, that someone from Sony confirms that this is a problem (here in Vienna in a Sony authorized shop during the presentation of the A7V. I will try out now what you described.

I have it with the 100mm Sony macro (and other lenses like 70-200 f4 macro) on my A7RV. It is very easy to reproduce.

Wow, many thanks for your detailed answer. It helps a lot! Please see also my comment in the A7RV firmware topic (about my focus problem). Since I'm also doing wildlife/birds I would like to have more speed. And as a next challenge doing more videos, that's the reason behind.

Hi Davide, many thanks for your interest! Yes it's only with stills. Before a few weeks I posted about it, using cont. autofocus without AI object detection doesn't work precise enough for macro work, on land or underwater makes no difference. And its also not about too less focus light or bad autofocus conditions. I try to explain, please excuse my English but I'm no native speaker :-) : Please see picture one, this is my motive, setting the focus point (small) to the red mark, which I want to focus on, second picture is where my focus ends up in blue, when I move my camera while focusing. The pictures are only for illustrating what I mean. In reality the output is, that for example the eyes are not sharp. This happens not with A1, A1 II, A7V, but with A9 III it's the same problem. I already talk with Sony about it, they had the explanation that the sensor of the A7R5 is too slow, hmmmm, but that can't be the case for the A9III, we tried it in a shop together with a Sony guy and with different cameras, Canon R5 was the best result :-( . Would be really interested how your thoughts are! I have the A7R5 from beginning on and I think at the beginning this was not the case, it worked much better and I had better results.

Hi, I'm doing mostly macro stuff. Until now only stills. Now I want to change my camera (A7Rv) more in direction to video. I'm also not happy with the autofocus of my A7RV on land and underwater. But I would need a good underwater macro still function too. As I had recently bought the Sony 100 mm macro (and have other lenses for land, as special wildlife) I want to stay with Sony. Do you think A7v would be better for video as the A1 II? I would immediately decide for A7v because of price, battery, new sensor ..., but for cropping A1 II would be better and I use cropping also on land a lot for macro. Would be happy for some thoughts about it. Thanks! LG Susanne

no, unfortunately not, autofocus, as special cont autofocus is still very unsatisfying for me (macro use). What is new is, that you can create your own customized focus points

Hi, I updated it, everything is working fine for me, did a lot of macro (not underwater) ...

Please see the pictures. I can send also a video with the functioning and more pictures. Akkus included (4 original).Located in Vienna, shipping in Europe. Price is 1500 Euro. Including all parts except spare o_rings and packaging.

Sold!

I someone here who can speak for Isotta?

Even Mark Galer is talking about it, and when you read his own comments, I think 🙃 .....

I do not know how fast you will have to change, but Canon R6 II is a very good camera ( I know it from a friend, underwater and above water) and there is a new version of this camera in the startup line of Canon, announced with more megapixel. That could be a good choice, including good video features announced.
