These are all from our small yard. All with the A6500 & most with the awesome 18-135. The Katydid was shot with the 70-300G A Japanese Anemone Colorado's state flower - the Columbine. A katydid on ...

Haha! Yes, we're lucky. We can't avoid them here on warm days and they're so damn hard to spot - until they rattle, that is. But they're not aggressive and will not generally attack unless you ...

I used the Canon 10-18 STM with the A6000 and for a while with the A6500. I used the FotodiOX adapter. IS worked. AF was slow, but okay most of the time. Since it is a wide lens, you can get away ...

We usually leave the foothills for spring and fall when the temps are cooler, but we got a late start yesterday and decided to hike closer to home. These photographs were taken along the Fowler, ...

Brilliant shots! Great light too.

I did not encounter this issue with the A6000 nor with my current A6500. Have you tried a factory reset on your camera? Maybe there is some setting that causes this? I usually have my mode dial on ...

Are you looking through the EVF? If so, there is a diopter adjustment wheel just to the right of it, play around with that.

Wow! Excellent photographs. I particularly like the Ahinga drying out.

They probably recognize you by now.. watch out or they'll follow you home. Wonderful pictures!

In addition to what has been said before...all of which is accurate. If you've selected Center Focus Area,  the focus point will move if you touch the rear lcd. It will then use the flexible spot ...

I don't notice any difference in normal light, but in low light, there is more noise in the shadows in a photograph shot in continuous mode (12bit) than one in 'one shot' mode (14bit). It is ...

Wow! You did bring out a lot of detail in that shot. I'm always amazed at what the sensors in our cameras are capable of. And equally amazed at the constant grumbling (in a few corners) about ...

Lovely images and narration. A shame that the sky was so bright.

Thanks Justin, Enigma. The haze is from fires in California!! It is worse today and will probably stay that way for a few days.

It is a pika. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_pika Thanks.

Awesome set Justin! I have to second Snapa. Your BIF shots have a sharpness to them that I get only occasionally. Knowing that we're using pretty much the same equipment encourages me.

We were lucky to see the enitre Bison herd while driving through the Rocky Mountain Arsenal NWR . Flat lighting with a haze/mist in the air. All with the 6500 & 18-135. Lone bull. They have lost ...

That was very well written and explained. I've always felt that the focus peaking decision was made on the video output to the EVF or the LCD, and not on the whole 24MP image. It would take a lot ...

To revert to the full-frame, press the center button of the control wheel. It will cycle through the focus magnification levels before getting to full frame. I set C1 as the focus magnifier, so it ...

I love it. Fast, accurate focusing and great image quality. It is expensive, but if you have decided on the e-mount camera line, there isn't much choice. If you're only going to shoot stationary or ...
