I'm talking about a very popular s/h lens the beercan sells for very affordable prices on ebay. The 70-210mm f4 isn't as heavy as the f2.8, but it's not a light lens. There are a large number of...

But there will be plenty picking up s/h gems like the popular 70-210mm f4, not exactly a light lens either so you want to use that on your A58 I wouldn't like to myself So let's forget this $2000...

Everyone using A mount knows the number line up has been consistent for ages even back to Minolta days 3 super budget 4 budget 5 mid level/upper entry 6 bit over that 7 semi pro level 9 pro level...

So sensible that everyone else offers full metal mounts across their range! So how about that one then? It's only done for one reason..cost. Sony have cheaped out to save a few pennies. Even...

I'd rather be more on the critical side, than ultra enthusiastic and dismissing some real issues. Kirk I've been using A mount a lot longer than you have, so have many others. If it rocks your boat...

I got a call today from the person in Sony who is dealing with this. And erm well I should have had the camera replacement by now, but I don't. The scary part is even Sony don't know if it's been...

Nikon's AF and service is awful, they can turn it around quickly and you can get in touch easily live chat etc. But as far as fixing problems, forget it. I had 2 D7000's and neither could product...

When was the last time Kirk Tuck actually gave any critique on a Sony product bar singing it's praises? He reads like a brochure from the maker, let's look to more impartial sources for views. I'm...

The days of cheap plastic mounts were limited to super budget 35mm bodies they all did it all the makers but you got a body for about £150 odd with a kit lens. So few really cared that much. The...

Actually I just had a private message from a forum member who read my posts about the D7000 he got one in Feb this year and again is plagued with AF problems. He's sending it in for repair and...

It sounds odd, but I would have taken it back to the retailer and let them deal with it for you. (they have to under law) I'm not sure what is going on with Sony service they seem to lack spare...

Apparently my public postings and facebook comments managed to get the attention of Sony and the case was passed to Sony UK HQ I was phoned last week and explained the situation and the Sony...

I give honest feedback and if I have issues I report them. I consider the problems across a number of makers as indicative of QC issues. And let's be frank, despite your best efforts to rubbish...

Sony are refusing to repair the camera unless I provide the original receipt. Despite having a copy of the receipt and having repaired it before with a copy provided (their instructions) Simple...

Let's get this fact clearing up sorted out. Had I taken it to the retailer first time around they would have sent it for repair so nothing different would have happened. You can either send it off...

I might have to explore this option. It seems the company has no intentions of making amends or addressing the problem. I would have thought no maker would let a customer wait for more than 3/4...

I returned my A57 to Sony UK with 2 faults, a large green line on the CMOS sensor in back-lit situations, and a faulty level gauge. The camera turned up at Sony's facility on the 23 Jan. I still do...

I report as I find.I disagree actually the vast majority of far eastern ebay sellers are very honest and genuine in my own experience.The issue is not fake cards (which at least was the most common...

http://myworld.ebay.com/sinceritytradingOrdered a TRANSCEND SD HC SDHC CLASS 10 UHS-I 16GB 4 months ago card developed a fault and was returned to the seller. Since then a big ignore from the...

No built-in flash, so external controller required for shooting with groups of flashguns
Relatively unsophisticated Auto ISO (really how so?)

No mention of this on the A99 review (lacking a built...
