You have some really good action shots on your Instagram. What camera/s did you use to capture those?
Do you mean my instagram? That was the one that appeared in the quote above. If you did, nearly everything in the last 9 months was taken with an A9 II and the 200-600. Prior to that it was Olympus E-M1 II/III with 300mm Pro. I switched to get better af, no rolling shutter and no viewfinder blackout as well as more light from a larger lens. Looked at the A7rIV but quickly rejected it because it didn’t do the important things I wanted and lots of people were reporting af issues with the 200-600. Dynamic range of the A9II is not a problem.
Yes indeed. What exactly is the source here?Source and EXif?Not only does the A9ii exhibit rolling shutter with very fast moving objects,. It exhibits electronic shutter artifacts due to the stacked sensor.
It does seem to be a know potential artifact caused by the sensor being read 12 rows (if I remember correctly) at a time. But I've never come across it in practice.Yes indeed.

I personally have shot many flying birds with my A9 using it's 20fps blackout free electronic shutter and I always look at my images very closely - I do not experience the claimed distortion.
Apart from my own work the A9 has been used by many others to shoot fast action sports so I am taking this claim with a large pinch of salt.
That makes two of us ... and that's after tens of thousands of shots in my case.It does seem to be a know potential artifact caused by the sensor being read 12 rows (if I remember correctly) at a time.

do you have a reference for this? If this were the case you would see jagged edges on any panning and I have never seen that.
I'm thinking Photoshop Gaussian blur myself
Tony, thank you for the clarification and please forgive the mixup.
No, the principle still applies. Thus "overcome" is not exactly correct. However, and you pretty much say it indirectly, it is now at a point where for most it is good enough, even if things go to ISO6400, for example. Unfortunately, this "good enough for me" is often extended to a globally applicable fact, and that is, as noted already, wrong.
I have shot hummingbirds many times and I have never experienced this issue - I'm not entirely sure what "dclark" is doing here.
No, I don't say any banding with your image. dclark say that it seems to be a luminence artifact and that sharpening makes it worse. I suspect the blue background and dark wing makes it worse and it probably only happens with a specific amount of blur and very fast horizontal motion. Maybe he used a lower shutter speed than you?I have shot hummingbirds many times and I have never experienced this issue - I'm not entirely sure what "dclark" is doing here.
I'd like to understand exactly what he is doing in post because I suspect that may be the root cause here.
But ... clearly this is not a common A9 issue. Frankly we'd be hearing a awful lot more about the issue if that were indeed the case. Many professionals shoot an A9.
Here's an example of a hummingbird that I shot with my own A9's electronic shutter ... I see no such effects in the (admittedly) blurred wings, do you?
„FB“ ??
Trust me I'm not at all worried, my A9 has been a stellar performer over tens of thousands of electronic shutter shots.No, I don't say any banding with your image. dclark say that it seems to be a luminence artifact and that sharpening makes it worse.

Anyway, it's so rare, I don't think we need to worry about it until it happens. ;-)
Yes and no. There are already rumors about an R camera with 80-90MP, but rather than the next iteration of the R5, it will likely be a high-MP branch, say an R5s like the 5Ds cameras from a few years ago.
That's definitely the place for rigorous trusty camera informationI’d be guessing Facebook.
