Sigma is expected to release a new Sigma 28-105mm f/2.8 Art lens in September. The lens will be for E and L mount with an 82mm filter and will weigh less than 1kg, which is lighter than competitors.
Photons to Photos published its photographic dynamic range results for the Canon EOS R5 Mark II and the camera compares well to the Nikon Z7II, Sony a7IV, and Sony a7RV, but ultimately doesn’t impress. Canon really should find a company that can make a sensor that surpasses what Sony can produce. You can view and manipulate the above chart here.
| Camera Model | Maximum PDR | Low Light ISO | Low Light EV |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canon EOS R5 Mark II | 11.45 | 4846 | 10.60 |
| Nikon Z 7II | 11.60 | 4157 | 10.38 |
| Sony ILCE-7RM5 | 11.70 | 5244 | 10.71 |
| Sony ILCE-7M4 | 11.71 | 5365 | 10.75 |
