Gorgeous!

A good one :) I actually, recently purchased several very good lenses from used market, and do not regret.

A-Mount lenses what is keeping me with mount. Travel kit - KM 17-35mm f/2.8-4 AF on A850, Maxxum 35-70mm, 135mm f/2.8 Macro detail with dirt cheep Quantaray 50mm f/2.8 1:1 and Tamron 90mm f/2.8 AF ...

Perfection!

Ralf, Good to know you are fine and got out to fresh air! Lovely pics. :)

If you are trying to save - used A-mount lenses are very inexpensive right now. But it is if you are going to purchase several lenses, especially specialized primes for full frame camera. If you ...

Gorgeous...

I just checked shutter count on my 11 years old A850 - 120,000. Camera still works very well. I'm satisfied with IQ from 24 megapixels sensor. It is very impressive that after 11 years of ...

BHphotovideo is selling 24 A-mount lenses, new, good and great, covered by standard warranty by default. Sony will continue supporting A mount. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?setNs=p_PRICE_2 ...

Gary, I hear you. However it is hard to believe, that after making very good and great A-mount lenses like https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/845555-REG/Sony_SAL500F40G_500mm_f_4_0_G_Lens.html ...

They still produce A68, A77 II, and A99 II. Oh, sure I do. A850 with Maxxum\Sony\Sigma\Tamron lenses serve me well. Right, there are plenty of A-mount items on used market. When my A850 will break, ...

Sony, value A-mount photographers, especially owners of PRO-grade lenses, Because we will buy new camera bodies when time come, to support awesome lenses we own. Don't push us to new mount, some ...

Shows again that makers should value PRO market, value owners of expensive glass and supply them with new camera bodies. Not pushing them to new mount...

In case with my A850 difference in detail at 100% view and ISO 100 with IS on and off  while taking pics from tripod - is significant. I imagine A99 II is even more unforgiving because of ...

Both images are beautiful. Second photograph is stunning at normal viewing. When expanded to 100% in zoom 2nd image shows movement buzz in rocks, it is probably caused by image stabilization while ...

Going to get 72mm Minolta's CPL to minimize vignette. Minolta Maxxum 20mm is my super favorite wide landscape lens on A850.

Very corners are distorted, not soft. Distortion is from CPL filter.

While Sony still making lenses like this one - hope exists... https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/845555-REG/Sony_SAL500F40G_500mm_f_4_0_G_Lens.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&lsft=BI%3A514&gclid=Cj ...

You got lemon lens or need to learn depth of field with this lens. My Minolta Maxxum 20mm f/2.8 AF is very reliable, works good with close focus while taking landscapes. https://stan-pustylnik.smug ...
