Sony SLT-A65

Stupid me. I wheeled back on my office chair and knocked into my tripod causing it to tip and sent a65 crashing into some furniture. The camera still works perfectly but as the flash was up when I knocked it over it is a casualty of my carelessness. The flash still fires but when it fell it snapped the plastic that holds it up and allows it to be stored into the body so it's just sitting there half open at the moment, looking all sad and sorry. So... do any of you kind folk have any idea on...

Hi All. Got an SLT-A65 with the 18-135 a week ago. Very impressed with the combo but need a little more reach. Would I be better off with something along the lines of a Tamron 18-270 as an all in one solution or try to find a 70-300 and carry two lenses? Thanks for any input. Zaxdad

hi all how do i connect a65 to studio flash kit

Hello, forum. I'm Aditya, a seventeen year old from Hyderabad, India, and bout a year ago, I began to take a liking to photography. As I began to explore photography, I got my own dSLR, a Sony a65 with a 16-105mm zoom lens. For the first few months, I was quite content with my work, but as I began to explore photography forums, I realised there was something missing; my pictures, no matter how well I focused them, just didn't have the searing sharpness or vivid colors that you would see on a...

Hi, I'm looking for a general use lens (travel) for my a-65.I'm cannot decide between the following 4 lenses..Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC MACRO HSM or the old version of sigma Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM Tamron 18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II PZD Sony DT 18-250mm F3.5-6.3   The price is pretty much the same (except Sony) Any help? pros/cons?   Thanks a lot!   ps. I know there is a similar question but didn’t want to interrupt.

Hi everyone,I regularly follow DPReview articles but haven't participated much in the forums.  However, I am in the market for a new DSLR and am having just the hardest time deciding which direction to go.  Let me first give you a little background on what I am typically shoot.  Most of my shots are of the travel, architecture, landscape/nature, and macro variety.  Most importantly though, I need something to take pictures of my very active toddler.  I tend to shoot mostly in manual mode, so...

I am coming from using an A100 + 18-200 (5 years) and a GH2 + 7-14 + CZ 21/2.8 (2.5 years). I am passing my Four Thirds and Micro Four Thirds stuff to a friend and taking the opportunity to upgrade my system (the A100 is with my father now). I bought the GH2 thinking I would love the smaller size and video, but find that neither was as important to me as I thought. That said, I still have a NEX-5n (wife's, but I use it). I'm not that impressed by the operation of it, but I love the output...

I've started shooting AVCHD video at the highest quality on my A65, and haven't found a simple way to import the results onto my Mac.  When I examine the results in Finder it appears as a single package, whether I have shot one or several videos.  Neither iMovie nor Aperture recognize the file, so to import at the moment I examine the package contents and drag over the individual video files, I believe losing metadata in the process.My googling only turns up apps to convert the resulting file...

I just upgraded my 700 to a 65, and my daughter's 350 to a 57. The 57 switch operates normal, also with glasses on the nose. But the 65 forces me to (glasses off) press the viewfinder almost into my eye and let no light in to start the viewfinder. Q: can the sensitiveness be altered, or do I have to contact Sony service?

Looking for recommendations on a wide angle for interior shots with the A65 - something wide enough that after software perspective correction, crops close to a 24mm in FF.Thanks--http://chkphotography.zenfolio.com/
