I have suspected AF problems with the a6500 for awhile and decided to do a comparative test against my older a6000. Tested with the Sony/ZEISS 24 f1.8 ZA lens on both cameras, set at f1.8. Sure ...

Using Instagram to choose candidates is interesting. No doubt Nikon is trying to broaden the perception of being part of "the establishment." Certainly there are serious young photographers on...

An exit from a county fair parking lot on to a rural highway intersection, lit for safety. I spot metered the bright area to keep details.

So, specialized applications of curved sensor tech. That brings it down to earth a bit. Thanks.

Aaah, feel the warmth and bask in the re-awakening of gear acquisition syndrome. Fun, isn't it? :-)

Hmm, from the statement above, "...we should compete in the mid-range and high-end DSLR.," it would seem new mirrorless cameras might be good pocket cameras, a la Sony RX 100. And from the spate of...

@T3: As an FD user I remember the uproar from the FD pro/enthusiast users but it didn't stop them from switching to EOS, albeit not monolithically. I too switched but did not like the EOS feel and...
