Sony a7III: Chris Niccolls And Jordan Drake Move To DPReview and Review

By Louis Ferreira | Published: April 28, 2018

Chris Niccolls And Jordan Drake’s inaugural review with DPReview of the Sony a7III is a long one coming in at almost 20 minutes long. This gives them access to a new broader audience and it will be interesting to see how it affects their “show.” At this point Sony a7III reviews have become a formality with very few complaints about the camera for the price. Sure the EVF isn’t amazing and punching in focus is less useful as a result, but the sony a7III is still an incredible value for the price.

Sony FY2017 Earnings Announcement

By Louis Ferreira | Published: April 27, 2018

Results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018
Sales increased 76.3 billion yen (13%) year-on-year (a 9% increase on a constant currency basis) to 655.9 billion yen. This significant increase was mainly due to the absence of the impact from the Kumamoto Earthquakes in the previous fiscal year, the impact of foreign exchange rates and an improvement in the product mix of Still and Video Cameras reflecting a shift to high value-added models.

Operating income increased 27.7 billion yen year-on-year to 74.9 billion yen. This significant increase was mainly due to the above-mentioned improvement in product mix, the positive impact of foreign exchange rates and the absence of the impact from the Kumamoto Earthquakes in the previous fiscal year. During the current fiscal year, there was a 11.6 billion yen positive impact from foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019
Sales and operating income are both expected to be essentially flat year-on-year, primarily due to the expected negative impact of foreign exchange rates being substantially offset by an improvement in the product mix of Still and Video Cameras reflecting a shift to high value-added models.

Meyer-Optik-Goerlitz: Again, in the leading position for available light photography
Already in the 1920s, Meyer brought lenses to market which were the fastest lenses of their time: the Kinoplasmat 75/f1. 5. Later the Primoplan 1.9/58 was to become the fastest standard lens for the famous Exakta camera, which was sold in the USA as “Kine night Exakta”. At this time Meyer-Optik Goerlitz was considered as the most prominent manufacturer of available light lenses, so called “giants of light” and in 2016 the company presented the Nocturnus 0.95/50 mm for the first time now available in its third version.
Now Meyer is following the legacy of creating the fastest 75mm lens in the world like it once did with the Kinoplasmat. The Nocturnus 0.95/75 mm lens is a full format lens available for Sony E, Fuji X and Leica M. The company also intends to follow with a 35mm lens later in order to complete its Nocturnus line.
