Balls. Sent the S1IIE back without even opening the box and picked up another S9 instead.
My first 8 jobs of the year were 7 hybrid and 1 pure video.
Of the next 7, I knew 1 was photo only but ‘assumed’ the other 6 were all hybrid.
Nope, only 3/7 are hybrid and not worth spending that money for just 3 jobs when 2027 is a bit of an unknown…
Unknown as in almost fully booked and every booked job is hybrid, but I am still hopeful for either a genuine S1H successor or an S9II.
Or even some kind of Nikon/Sony mashup but that is as unlikely as my Hasselblad dreams…
But then also still ‘waiting’ for Sigma to build a sibling to the 28-45mm f1.8 such as a 45-90mm f1.8 with internal non-extending zoom, but probably dreaming there also…
And then there is my Leica fantasy, but let’s not go there either.
