My mistake, it is the 12mm Voightlander that has been discontinued. The 15mm is pretty small and light so it could be a very good option to travel with for ultra wide shots where I may want the ...

I have looked at the 15mm Voightlander, very small and very sharp. It is a shame they discontinued the Sony mount. I just sold my 16-35 4.0 lens. I am going to buy the a6600 and 10-18. I probably ...

From the article it almost seems like the tool is a magic wand - https://petapixel.com/2021/03/13/adobe-photoshops-super-resolution-made-my-jaw-hit-the-floor/ I do understand there is nothing like ...

I have seen this site, very helpful. My only criticism is I cannot get the actual length of the camera and lens. This is not the fault of the website, it is because manufacturers include the depth ...

I sold the a7r3 recently (and just now updated my gear list). I intend to replace the a7r3 with the a6600 and 10-18 lens. I like carrying two cameras, one with an ultrawide zoom and the other with ...

What keeps me hanging on to my a7r4 is because on rare occasion I want to print one large canvas print up to 6' wide and 4' tall for my living room. I have several smaller canvas prints 3o"x20". I ...

I am not sure what forum to ask this question on, since I use the a7r4 I will start here. I have a 54"x20" tri panel canvas print in my living room, right above my couch. I am trying to think ...

I have thought about that. I have also thought about the 24-105 on the a7r4 being not that much heavier and bigger then the 17-70 on the a6600. Plus, in crop mode I have a longer range with the ...

I kind of feel the same way you do. There are rare occasions when I want a large print so it is nice to have those 60 megapixels. Most of the time I want small and light and do not need large ...

I figured out how to change the metadata template so I am the author. When I checked properties/details the other guys name was in the comments section. I had to rename the files after I put my ...

I may have to go on the Adobe forum for this answer, but on photos that are mine another person is showing up as author. The name is Todd Materazzi that shows up on some of my photos. I never knew ...

I remember when Nikon first came out with their digital cameras you had basically two choices - one camera with higher megapixels but slower performance while the other was less resolution and ...

Thanks, I will take a look at it. My primary reason for an external mic is to be able to decrease the distraction of wind noise. Gary

I really want to avoid buying a prime and not using it, which I have done in the past. I am sure I will get the 20mm 1.8 because it will give me something I do not have with my zooms. The priority ...

I have been going through my old videos and cannot believe how wind noise is so prevalent in too many of them. I am not going to do any professional work, mainly for travel videos, of which some I ...

The Samyang has my attention. Found a site that compared all the lenses around 50mm for Sony and none of them got me real excited. I think for granddaughter basketball I will get the Tamron 28-75. ...

I have used the 24-105 for basketball and it does a nice job. Shooting at iso 3200 or even higher not such a big deal anymore. There are some really dark gyms though. I had thought about getting ...

Obviously intent of use is critical for any prime lens recommendations, so some information on what I want to do is in order. I am 72 and have been shooting for many years and I have owned many ...

My apologies for responding so late. That was very useful information. I just upgraded my DXO to the newest version. I think the the 10-18 will be just fine for what I want. I like a two camera ...

Steve, I apologize for not responding earlier, a lot going on and have not been on this forum as much as I should have been to check responses. I wanted to see if the a6600 with 10-18 would fit in ...
