Since someone resurrected this thread, I thought I would point out that B&H has the FE mount A7ii and 28-70 OSS backordered but still for sale at the same price ($998), expected availability Dec. 13. ...

Skip the adapters and the memory sticks, no need for either. Any one of these is up to the task and very well regarded (stick to the "Extreme Pro" models). https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/12 ...

Agree.  It changes your whole perspective on using higher ISO.

Links to lenses supported seem broken, looks like they redesigned the website since the last time I was there. There's a supported camera list here ...

The Wikipedia chart shows the IMX0071 as the imaging sensor on the D5100. Assuming the chart is accurate (if not complete), then you should look at the Sony A57.  In their review of the A57, ...

Curious about something you said regarding dislike for the A6000. Is that dislike just limited to the ergonomics? My wife either lost her E-mount kit a few years back or it was stolen, and I was ...

Glad I could help.

The most plausible explanation for this is user error, which is good because if true you can fix it yourself. Do you ever manually change the shutter speed to this setting (M or S mode, ...

Global shutter is great, but if I remember correctly don't you sacrifice a couple of stops of dynamic range? I'm not sure people want that trade off unless the technology advances, but who knows ...

Seems like a good time to buy into Ryzen.  Now that they're putting out 2nd generation hardware, many of the 1st generation kinks you typically see in a new platform have become non-issues (I try ...

You and I both. I too just purchased the hardware yesterday for my long awaited upgrade after six years.  I don't game, this is just for photo and video editing/rendering.  This is what I went ...

Let me preface this by saying I only play engineer and economist on the internet. That said... I guess the fly in the ointment on this idea (and don't get me wrong, I think electronic aperture ...

The Canon 7D line is their flagship APS-C body. Its most recent iteration, the Mark II, was released in November 2014. The original 7D that preceded it went five years before a successor came out. ...

The A77ii is as good as, or better than, the A57 in every way. You can't say that about the other two models (for instance, the LCD specs and design). I moved from the A57 to the A77ii, was a ...

For your budget, I would go for the Tamron - SP AF 70-200 F2.8 Di LD IF Macro.  A lot of bang for your buck, plus the A77ii really gets the most out of it.

This kind of thing happens with DxoMark that you should be careful about sensor comparisons across generations of product development. The A55 is a product of 2010, the A68 from 2016. There's ...

I concur with the other recommendations of the A77ii.  I've owned the A33 and the A57, and they were great, but it is a much better camera in every way. Every other option involves a significant ...

If you don't mind my asking why did you leave before? What was your last A-mount camera before you left for the dark side?

Previous Sony models I might have chosen the EVF, peaking, or full-time live view. I love the quick and easy Eye AF. It just works, and very well, on the A77ii. Mine does not feel old at all.  ...

Have the 18-135 SAM lens, was mounted on A77ii in a well padded bag that protects fairly well, took a short tumble hanging off the back of a chair. The camera seems fine and functions normal with ...
