I have the same lens as Ed and still use mine to this day. Started out with it on an A700 and now use it on an A77. f/8 thru f/11 is the sweet spot for sharpness on mine though I often use f/6.3 ...

I've a R7000 as well. Been using it for about a year reliably. But recently I have had to deal with a teenager's internet usage and so wanted some features that I was surprised to find are not ...

Great shots.  The harriers are pretty darn good. I know the area well.  I've seen a coyote & beavers (on different days) across from the Flying Beaver and river otters just south of where ...

As above... I could not have written it any better for my ZS100. I had tried many times with my old Android phone 4.4.1 to connect.  No luck.  New 6.0.1 phone arrived this week.... saved the ...

Here's where you can find "real" products. https://www.av-test.org/en/antivirus/ https://www.av-comparatives.org/ I've been following AV-Comparatives for maybe 9+ years. Over time I've seen ...

On hot summer days the heat haze can severely degrade image quality of long focal length shots, especially on artificial turf fields.  Your best IQ shots will be those that don't span the width or ...

If you check jjz2's history you will see he has not posted here for 2+ months.  You might get a more immediate response if you send a private message as often people have their PM inbox configured ...

I recall the "old days" from the wildlife threads your use of the 200-500.  Thanks to all for commenting. Sure would like to see an A77 Mk3 with a sensor offering an AF point array like the A6300.  ...

as compared to my old old Sigma 50-500 f4-f6.3 APO DG?? I use it on an A77 mk1. To be clear this is a 2008/2009 vintage lens that relies on the bodies' screw drive. No slick quiet magnetic drive in ...

Interesting discussion. Not sure what to make of it but do know at times I have not been entirely happy with my A77 shooting airshows with aircraft against a homogeneous blue sky. The sky shows ...

Very nice shots! I was there on Sunday;  still working through the 1500+ shots I took.  Had my ZS100 with me for the static displays and my long lens Sony system for the aerial show. Enjoying the ...

https://www.reliableparts.com/ Oddly, you go under their "About Us/Brands we carry" url and Sony is not listed. .

:) I was!! I called their closest location to my home and explained my situation. They have it in stock in a Calgary Alberta warehouse and it will be brought into their store 10 minutes from my ...

I did but, because I'm in Canada I believe, it gave me a redirect link for ordering from a local partner of theirs. .

Interesting.... the Encompass site redirects to a local distribution company best known for BBQ parts. .

PS... the Ebay seller I would consider is shipping from Flushing NY. Flushing sets off alarm bells for me - did I read several years ago that several of the scam photography retailers are located ...

re: Sony A77 Translucent Mirror pn A1855640A I somehow damaged my mirror while cleaning the sensor and am now trying to get one shipped to me in Canada. There is an airshow in 10 days that I want ...

Bingo!  Has happened to me so many times since I got the camera.  Almost turned the touch screen off on a couple of occasions. .
