After discontinuing the A7 II (good riddance) and the A7R II, the Sony A7C was their least expensive FF camera, and is way more expensive than entry level Canon or Nikon’s.

I think that’s a huge...

Sorry for resurrecting a 2 years old thread. For astrophotography, will I gain something using a second generation Nikon 1000mm f/11 Reflex with a TC-301 (previously removing the screw rear filter) ...

Any comments on how good is the second generation Nikkor 1000mm f/11 Reflex for astrophotography and if it can be used with TC-301 (or with the TC-20e III) once the rear filter is removed?

Thanks...

So far my Sony line up (for an A7R II) is: Sony Zeiss 35mm 2.8, Sony Zeiss 55mm 1.8 and the Sony 85 1.8. The idea being to pick up well made, compact and very sharp lenses rather than to look for ...

It’s like saying you like wearing virtual reality googles all time rather than seeing things with your own eyes, because you instantly get GPS, wind speed and temperature data.

I mean, you can...

Francis, please explain why is so bad to look with your own eyes trough the lens, with natural colours, no delay and the highest resolution? If rangefinders made it to this days with Leica, why...

I thought weight is an important spec in a laptop. I think Dell isn’t terribly impressive there, probably twice as heavy as the LG Gram. Nice laptop, but $3.000 is very steep.

Windows entered dead...

I think Ricoh is doubling down on DSLR’s. Canon is killing their EF system, Sony has killed off the A-system and it’s unclear if Nikon will continue with the F-system.

That would leave DSLR’s to...

Item discontinued . ....

The A7 II was never great, but the much improved A7R II is still a fine camera IMO. But was discontinued even earlier.

Tbh, couldn’t care less for APS-C cameras. Since the sensor isn’t anymore...

No Gitzo Traveler GT 1445T with ball head super deal?

There was a reason why flagship cameras were limited to 12-20 MP in the past, namely speed and high ISO performance. And if you wanted more resolution, you also bought a high resolution body.

But...

Canon though Sony’s flagship is the 24MP A9, so they answered slightly increasing the 20MP of the 1DX III / R6 to 24MP of what was to be the R1. Then the A1 happened, and Canon promptly changed the...

It says the actual 48 lenses Canon 400mm 2.8 telescope, organized in two clusters of 24 lenses, is the equivalent of 1m diameter f/0.4 refractor. With 400mm focal length.

After the reduced sales of the D6 and D780, wondering if Nikon will make another DSLR? I think the D850 and D500 have been very successful but where introduced long time ago. There probably won’t...

Just for the record, I currently use Canon DSLR’s, Nikon DSRL’s, Sony MIL and Pentax SLR and DSLR cameras.

Don’t have anti-Sony bias and I never use grips in my cameras, though I understand why...

The Z9 has caught the competition off guard. The price of the camera, is $1350 lower than tier 1 Sony’s A1 pro camera, including the grip. Even Canon innovative R3, is $500 more expensive than the...

Tbh, I stopped buying EF lenses after figuring out what it meant the Canon “won’t bring anything new, unless the market asks for something “ when commenting on their EF system in general or maybe ...

I went to see the Gitzo 1545T, locally it was around C$850 plus taxes, but while the Peak Design Carbon is only slightly more stiff that the aluminum version and is not worth the jump in price, ...

For long time have been neglecting the support of my cameras and lenses, till recently when I decided to focus on that point. So far have a table tripod (Sirui 3T-15K which includes a Sirui B00K ...
