I did actually know this and still made the choice. I see my Sony camera and lenses as a temporary imaging scope and camera solution. I’ll use it offline with an intervalometer in the mean time ...

I picked up the following (on its delightful way to me): (1) SkyWatcher EQM 35i with WiFi (2) ASI Air Plus (3) ZWO 30mm F/4 guiding scope

Thanks for the excellent alternate take and advice.

I like this drawing of the line of marginality better than the $2500 line previously drawn. I am sure these mounts have limitations, but they look a lot better than those forms that the Celestron ...

I find this to be a general life problem. All in — or qualifying "proofs of concept". Ah there's the rub. I do tend be kind of "all in" person, but then I have seen myself get all out the next ...

Hyperstar Night-time Demo Wow, F2, only 300mm, but - twenty five times faster exposures, making Alt-Az cheap goto mounts deliver results that look amazing. In terms of expectations, the results on ...

Thank you so much for the generosity of your response. There is really a great deal of information that was helpful to me. At ~ $2500 USD, I guess this resets my idea of what "moderately priced" is ...

I own a Sony A7iv full frame camera and a some decent telephoto lenses (GM 135mm f/1.8, GM 70-200 f/2.8, and G 200-600 f/5.6-f/6.3) It is my impression that I should be able to buy an equatorial ...

Fortunately (unfortunately) I no longer need to choose between my wife or a new camera body. There's an old saying - "you date the (camera) body, you marry the lenses". My experience too. Too much ...

Yeah well, that's just your opinion, man... #TBL It was. I was comparing it to A73, and it had two of the Bionz X processors that that platform had. I could care less that you don't believe me. I ...

Ah, that's interesting. I thought that by using GM 24-70 II and 70-200 II that I was helping the AF system (the camera gives the command, but these lenses probably respond the best). But as you ...

As the OP clarifies, AFTER initial lock - there is no comparison and of course the A9ii soars ahead with 20 fps stickiness. But my posts and this discussions is not about that. Its about the ...
-
I am coming to appreciate EXACTLY what you just explained. I wonder if this includes the up front face/eye detection which is in my use case. I should have mentioned that. To just find AF (and then ...
-
Well, I would be careful of the analogy, since A1 may use the same chip but has TWICE the pixels to push. Look again. I can document mine with screen videos. What the video can't show though is ...

As you can imagine, with one photographer - he likes his cameras configured identically. Both are: (1) AF-C (2) AF-Area: Center tracking [one backbutton] AF-Area: Wide tracking [another backbutton]

Sure, but I said A74 , not R4, and as thoroughly disclaimed, I wasn't talking about the 20 fps stickiness superiority of the A9ii that the A74 can't touch. 7R4 is a significantly older generation ...
-
I appreciate the hardware breakdown, and I guess this validates that I am not going crazy. Wow, the computing power increases are exponential, and so it appears that yes - not even 2 years later, ...
-
I am going to put an observation out that is possible for me. Having both cameras, what I can report from my experience is that first acquisition time is longer on my A9ii than on my A7iv. I define ...
-
I mean, the camera and most of my lenses can take a soaking and be just fine, but at the tiniest sprinkle of water, with my multi-interface shoe cover on, I experience this problem, which - until ...
