Comparing Canon EF Lenses on the EOS M10 and Sony A5100
In this video, I look at the new Canon EOS M10 and Sony A5100 and how well they both work with Canon EF lenses when paired with the Canon EF to EF-M Adapter and the Metabones EF – E Speed Booster Ultra (note: link is the newest version), respectively.
Lenses used on the M10 and A5100 in this video are the EF 40mm f/2.8 STM, EF 50mm f/1.4 USM and EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM.
Canon has taken a lot of crap for its efforts in the mirrorless market (and in many ways, deservedly so). The EOS M10, although an entry-level model, is a step in the right direction. Sony isn’t slowing down and once it gets its own lens library built up, we’ll all stop asking questions about which adapter is the right one for your Sony mirrorless camera and Canon lenses.
Sony Image Sensor Size Comparison
Above is another one of the cool tech displays from Sony’s booth at CES. It shows the sensor size comparison for Sony cameras starting with a compact camera with a 1/2.3″ sensor on the right side and moving up to a full frame size sensor on the left side.
As many of you know, the full frame Sony 35mm sensor is found in the Sony A7 Series and the A99 SLT camera. The APS-C sensor is found in cameras like the Sony A6000 and A5100. Sony is using the CX Format nomenclature for 1″ sensors like what is found in the Sony RX100 and RX10.
Sony 4D AF Demo Videos
The new Sony A5100 uses a technology that Sony calls 4D AF – meaning a four dimension evaluation. The frame coverage, predictive AF and tracking when objects cross the AF subject are all impressive features on Sony’s new AF systems.
