@Favorable Exponyt Actually being able to see the last frame is better than being 'blind' and seeing just a black frame as you can still adjust somewhat from frame to frame. For some situations...

@FOTONOTO Sony cameras allow you to customise the quick access Fn menu quite easily

@Rouseabout only photo geeks buy €3600 cameras, regardless of the brand...

No, if it functions like the A77II you're not shooting blind. At 12fps the viewfinder is showing you the last frame rather than a live view. In some shooting situations this can make tracking...

Also like the iPhone which still doesn't allow access to its NFC functionality, except for using Apple Pay. Still annoys me that I can;t use NFC to sync with my camera. But at least there is a...

Indeed. I guess for OVF cameras this might be logical but for EVF cameras there's no need to take the camera away from the eye. For this reason on future Alphas I believe that Sony should move the ...

yes i had to smile when i watched the ditialrev review of the D500 and Kai got all excited about the placement of the ISO button, like this was some new innovation...

I've just checked and the USB out works while a battery is being charged using the charger itself.

You can only charge one battery out-of-camera (i.e. on the charger itself) at a time. However I wonder if the USB out functions while you are charging a battery in the unit. That is to say maybe ...

Hi, I bought the Hahnel Ultima Plus for Sony a few weeks ago. Suppers the two batteries you mentioned plus the np-bx1 for the Rx series. Well made and versatile with Usb out, 12v input for the car ...

I'd say it's likely that the top LCD cannot be replaced as an individual part and that any authorised repair facility will simply replace the entire top cover assembly which includes the LCD. I ...

OK, here are photos taken on my A7 with the DT16-50. I took images at four different focal lengths. I've put the respective APS-C crop and FF version together to allow comparison and then added a ...

I tested a couple of drinks lenses here. http://www.dyxum.com/dforum/dt-lenses-on-ff_topic116812_page2.html Generally the DT primes work better on FF than the zooms do, although the dt11-18 can be ...

Hi I've tried the 16-50 on my A7 and to be honest there is not much benefit to using the lens in FF mode due to the amount of vignetting at all focal lengths. If useful I could take some test shots ...

Me too I rate this sling strap highly. I use it often with A77II and a variety of lenses. It stays out of your way when necessary but it's never too difficult to get the camera in position when ...

A shame Sony got rid of GPS in its newer models. For me the implementation in the A77 was pretty good and much better than the A55: merely recorded no fix on photos rather than last fix when no ...

I'd live to use but am unable to. Apple has crippled NFC in the iPhone so I'm forced to go through the rather clunky wifi connection procedure to transfer pics

I also get the unable to magnify' error every now and again on my A77II. It seems to be random phenomenon and not depending on the lens used.

Face detection isn't just about focus. It also sets exposure for the face detected.

I guess you mean 18-135 SAM? You could be right but if so it's the wrong lens in the photo.
