TCSTV: Sony FE 50mm f/1.2 GM + Wireless Microphone W2BT + Lavalier ECM-LV1 Review

TCSTV released their review of the Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM + W2BT. Below is a summary of their review:

Sony FE 50mm f/1.2 GM

The technology from Sony’s high-end telephoto lenses is being used to improve shorters lenses and the Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM is very good
Fast enough to be used for candid photography
The real-time tracking AF system is great even shooting at 10fps and the pupil is always in focus
Great bokeh that is very clean and circular with no weird patterns in it
Not very small but it is lighter than Canon or Nikon lenses coming in at 778g
Declicable aperture ring
72mm filter threat and comes with a greaet hood
Very nice G Master quality and custom control buttons
Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM is fully weather-sealed
Optical performance is super sharp with a great surface coating
Great AF even on the edges of the frame
No flare even when the subject is heavily backlit
Smooth AF transitions for video
Focus breathing with this lens could limit its usefulness
Could be her favorite 50mm f/1.2 lens on the market right now since you sacrifice very little
This is the grown-up nifty 50

Wireless Microphone ECM-W2BT + Lavalier ECM-LV1

Just plug and play full digital interface with no cables to lose
A very automatic system so you cant adjust levels in the camera, but you can adjust the attenuator function on the unit
There is also a mix mode so someone behind the camera can say something
The Lavalier is in stereo and it is pretty big, but she prefers a smaller mic
The system takes a 3.5mm mic so you don’t have to use Sony’s Lavalier ECM-LV1
