Hi again Alex All of three of these photos exhibit abundant and tack sharp detail, excellent subject separation, creamy bokeh with what some would call /Minolta/ colour characteristics. The...

Hi Alex You obviously know how to get the best out of that combo. Besides the slight hint of circular artefacts in the bokeh of the last image, you could forgive those who may think that...

Hi Gustav Good weather to share some hot potatoes with your feathered friend, and they would go nicely with that fresh fish? :D Great shooting as usual! Cheers Steve :) P.S. How long...

It does the job for me.....but like most things, it just requires some practice. No football, but I have taken a few shots at the track and there are a few of these shots in my DPR...

One could easily do worse with a more expensive cam? Thank you for your kind words. :)

You were not alone...me too Cheers Steve :) PS Phil, you have some great shots there on your ZF site too!

Unlike the a77, Gary does not /need/ any awards, but rather; He just needs us to buy his books. ;) Got yours yet Ralf? Cheers Steve :)

Nikon D3X combo would be great, IF you have the budget. I had the Sigma 70-200 and now I have the Sony version, I originally chose the Sigma over the Tamron because I wanted the faster AF and SSM...

I now have a few of Gary's books and can comfortably say that they represent great value for money. The new feature packed a77 and a65 cams both warrant a well written reference book like...

Apparently it will be....see here; http://friedmanarchives.com/alpha77/index.htm /This e-Book will be available in THREE different formats: /1) As an instantly-downloadable, full-color .pdf...

It's time for you to rhetorically (and otherwise) 'hop back on your bike' and push over some crests. Afterwards, you can coast down the other side, kick back and enjoy what is still a beautiful...

Sounds very nice but very expensive too.

Luckily, 2.4M dots are just enough for me right now.

These are a few 'test' shots that I took with my a77 + 70-300G last October on firmware V1.03. I used Spot AF on this occasion and as I was trackside also shot at the short end of the lens. I am...

Great shots! Pssst.....G that kit lens looks at least as good as L glass? ;) Happy New Year Steve :D

So, it appears that we have something else in common regarding our family and friends; dpr://galleries/5254826266/photos/1640185 But don't take too long to take your shot otherwise some may...

George, I too am a member of this great 'nutters' club, but I only have 3 members enrolled so far...... You and your family have obviously worked out that the most important of life's activities,...

Well done......You have obviously tamed that great combo! Cheers Steve :)

Hi Justin Very good examples of what can be achieved with that feature on the a580, and as you say; so much easier than lugging around the tripod etc. etc. ;) I certainly would be pleased...
