Hm, not really a screw-up photo in my opinion :-) All comments were well received as constructive criticism. As you said we learn every day with every image we take...

And there is the reason why companies like Adobe turn to the cloud. If all the thieves out there would buy a legal version in stead of downloading a cracked and illegal version, software could be a...

Well, actually there's only one group of users to blame and that's all those that copy the software and don't pay license fees at all. Those are the one's that make companies like Adobe look for...

I guess this must be wrong, as even an inexperienced sports shooter like myself can get some decent shots with the A99 :-D

Thanks.

No triple jump on the track yesterday. Maybe next time :-)

Thanks for the comments. It was great fun to try the A99 at action sports and I did use manual exposure in all shots posted. I wanted to keep DOF as shallow as possible and had to dial down...

Thanks, I think my monitor at home needs calibration as they did turn out a bit darker than expected in post processing.

Well, the sun was not constantly available, which made for mixing lighting conditions. Because it was mostly cloudy behind the bikers 'in air' I did turn down exposure a bit in some images to get...

Yes, I did use the AF-D option and it was a great help in tracking the biker as it passed me 'in flight'. Also tried the limited AF range when I was behind a jumping hill and couldn't anticipate on...

Today was the very first motocross with electric bikes in Zolder (Belgium), right in my backyard, so an ideal moment to test the sporting abilities of my new SLT-99 and myself as a...

I use the dpreview galleries plugin in LightRoom to automatically resize and upload to my galleries. Just use the export dialog, choose 'dpreview galleries public' or '-private' as destination and...

Very nice first "snap shots"! I've got mine for a few weeks now and already can't do without it. This evening I will put the selective AF distance to the test at the first ever electric motocross...

Hi, I also ran into the "too dark EVF" issue while I was shooting inside my studio with studio flashes triggered remotely. I took me some time before I realized, I was working with the "preview...

Excellent series. You managed to capture the action very well, and this is not only thanks to the camera, you know ;-)

How about Sony lenses? Since us Sony shooters are not using Canikon hardware this is of no use to us.
It seems to me that Sony is still getting ignored, while Canikon get tons of attention :-(

I've been taught to try as much as possible to frame my shots correctly without having to recompose using crop tools in PP. For critical shots, where I don't know if they will be used vertically or...

I finally decided to do a crazy thing and buy the A99, directly from Sony.be and I must say, I'm loving this camera already. It actually feels a little lighter than the A100 which I was used to...

I must agree. Just had mine delivered 3 days ago and it already feels like an old friend. It just feels so at home, because all controls are intuitively where you expect them. Only had a chance to...
