  • Here we have the greatest compact cam on earth and it just gets a silver award? I still don't get why Dpreview criticises the clickless front wheel. I would hate it, if it would have clicks....

  • Thank you for all your helpful replies! The result is clear, I will install only one SSD.
  • I am going to do a major hardware and software upgrade (form WinXP to Win8 and from E8400 to i7 4770). I occasionally read recommendations to install a second SSD for Photoshop. I am already using...
  • He is an expert in animal behaviour. He understands the mood of the animals an knows if they are relaxed or not. Sometimes he also uses remote controlled cameras.
  • Retry. I just had the same problem but at the next attempt it worked. If not, try the direct youtube link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=iqHJyXW0RNUSomehow the link to the...
  • Created discussions A77 Africa Video and more
    Benny Rebel, who is a professional wildlife photographer, has compiled a video of his recent Africa trips that was mainly recorded with an A77. Just click on the video on this...
  • Camera manufacturer lenses (Canon Nikon Sony) are usually more expensive than the lenses from third parties like Tamron or Sigma. The Sony is also Zeiss branded, which increses reputation and...
  • Sorry, I just became aware that the TO wants to have it for his APS-C camera. In that case a good copy of the Sigma could be the better performer.
  • The basic design is identical, but the Sony has a different coating that reduces the sensor reflections. That is the reason why I would always buy the Sony and not the Minolta version. I have seen...
  • Oh, if it wouls be only the double price, I would immediately buy it :-) Currently it is nearly 3 times the price in Europe. A77 is 1000 Euro, A99 is 2800 Euro. Although many Nikon lenses are poor,...
  • I would recommend to do exactly the same. I have had a Sigma 10-20 and now have a Tokina 11-16 (the fourth copy was finally a good one). The Tokina isn't bad, but it has strong CA and also coma,...
  • Of course, these are the main reasons for me to go full frame. I wanted to point out that besides the full frame sensor there is not much difference between A77 and A99. For the price of one A99 in...
  • A580 has the best noise perfomance and dynamic range. When you shoot RAW, the difference to A550 is neglible, but if you shoot JPG, you will get a visible improvement.But A580 has also other...
  • I would choose the Sony. It performs well, is small and light, is already supported by AF-D of the new A99 and avoids all the compatibility and quality problems that Sigma lenses are known for.The...
  • It's a bit older from EOSHD and sounds quite disappointing about A99:http://www.eoshd.com/content/9102/johnnie-behiri-shoots-professional-work-on-sony-a99-sample-videos-and-review
  • It's time for an update. Sony A99 still 2800 Euro, Nikon D600 now 1600 Euro and Nikon D800 now 2300 Euro. A99 is 1200 / 500 Euro more expensive than the Nikon that both have better image quality....
  • Replied in A99 MFNR
    Default setting is off. MFNR can be activated in the ISO settings (the setting, where the ISO value has a double frame around). MFNR is only available when image quality is set to JPG.
  • To anyone shooting A77/99 in burst mode: I can only underline that saving a little money when buying a less capable memory card is wasting the cameras ability and causes missing shots. I still wish...
  • If you want an outstanding lens at 16mm, you need to buy the CZ 16-35, but there is a much cheaper option if you could accept 14mm. The Samyang / Rokinon / Walimex pro f2.8/14mm. An optically and...
  • I tried it a year ago on my A77. On a really stable tripod (e. Feisol CT-3442) the SSS did not move (easy to hear if you choose several seconds of exposure), while it was moving on a cheaper...
