The Sony A7C is my second Sony full-frame digital camera. I bought it because its lightweight body (compared to the Sony A7III) is perfect for adapting classic RF film camera lenses, such as Leica M39 lenses or Contax/Nikon RF lenses. Pairing the silver-and-black camera with two silver lenses for outdoor shooting feels like stepping back into the 1950s — a perfect match.
Traditional RF film cameras have a physical limitation in close-up photography because the optical axis of the lens and that of the rangefinder window are not the same. As a result, most lenses are designed to focus only down to about 0.9–1 meter. Nowadays, many lens adapters are designed with a focusing helicoid, which allows the focusing range to extend by about 5 millimeters when the lens is mounted on a digital mirrorless camera, shortening the minimum focusing distance by several tens of centimeters and adding even more enjoyment to shooting.
Sony A7C 是我的第二台 Sony 全幅數位相機，購入的原因是她輕便的機身(相較於Sony A7III)非常適合轉接傳統RF底片相機的鏡頭，例如Leica M39鏡頭或Contax/Nikon RF鏡頭。銀黑色的相機搭配兩顆銀色鏡頭外拍，彷彿回到了1950年代，真是絕配啊。傳統RF底片相機由於鏡頭的光軸和測距窗的光軸並不一樣，在近距離拍攝上有物理限制，因此大部分的鏡頭在設計上僅能對焦到0.9~1米。現在很多轉接環在設計上都加入的調焦功能，當鏡頭裝在數位相機上時對焦可以再延伸約5毫米，讓最近對焦距離可以縮短數十公分，在拍攝上的樂趣就更大了。
