I recently picked up a Meade DS-2114 telescope with the autostar system. It seems to be a decent enough beginners telescope and naturally I'd like to try hooking my 5n up to it. The camera mount...

never used the Dicapac, but I've used Aquapac's for several years and I find them to be just so-so. Certainly good from a water protection standpoint, but they're a bit uwieldy to use, IMO.  I've...

IIRC, PDAF wasn't about AF speed, but more about AF accuracy in specific situations (moving subjects).

correct, they do not.

I probably wouldn't consider it a direct solution for you, but I ditched my ipads for windows 8 tablets and couldn't be happier. I get all the portability of an ipad without any of the limitations....

For manual focus, check out some of the old vivitar MD zooms. Very versatile, fast zooms and cheap.

Can't say anything specific to the 6, as I have a 5n, but it should at least be seen as mass storage and usable on your android tablet. If not, you may want to google around to find a USB card...

I just say that it's as good as most DSLR's and I don't have to lug around a big ole camera and bag of gear. I'd sacrifice some quality for the convenience, but I don't have to. I go out with...

Victorinox makes a variety of shoulder bags/slings that work perfectly for camera + whatever else and don't look like camera bags. They have a variety of styles, many of which look perfectly...

The latest update for windows live essentials, which is where photo gallery comes from, contains an update for Sony ARW support. It enables thumbnails in the os itself....

Like many of you, I'm interested in the SEL35. I'd been considering an la-ea2 and SAL35, which can be had for about the same price, but figured the combo would be significantly larger than the...

None of the RT tablets I've used had removable batteries, but the Dell XPS 10 is one of those that I mentioned has extra battery in the keyboard dock. All of the Dell tablets and convertibles that...

I didn't want to hijack the recent tablet thread with this, so I thought I'd start a new one. I've had opportunity to test quite a few win8 devices in conjunction with my Nex-5n and thought I'd...

I had similar complaints/issues when I first got my Nex and the best thing I did for myself was to get a manual lens (50/1.7) and stop depending on the camera's tech so much to help me take good...

not nex specific obviously, but good deals if anyone is in the...

C'mon, you can't use apple as an example of how Sony should do it. They have very similar business models.

I've tried my 5n with an ipad but found it more trouble than it was worth. Had to by an SD card adapter and then jump through hoops moving things around. Picked up an MS surface last week and it...

This is something I think people are ignoring or glossing over. The Pdaf wasn't there to make focusing faster. It focuses pretty fast as it is. It was to make it focus more accurately with moving...

You sound a lot like me. The 5 was my first "real" camera and I upgraded to the 5n shortly afterwards. I spend a ridiculous amount of time these days thinking about photography, reading about it...

As someone who has plans for a 6 in my future, I hope so!I'm not sure the la-ea1 is going to get you what you want. While they may update it to interface with the hybrid system in the new cameras,...
