The shutter count is irrelevelent. Factory quality test. But - Kalabalik --- I was born in Turkey (at Trabzon) some 81 years ago, before returning to my home country. And your "crowded" name ...

Yes....  You have a point !

How about DNG converter ?

There are cheaper coffeestands....

My experience in south america: Use a very common and not "photography looking" bag and take out the camera only when necessary. If possible thread a steel wire (bicycle brake wire)  through the ...

I have no pretence to be a professional. But I have been using the 24-105 /4 these last few years, with the A7R3 and have never been frustrated by their performance. The high resolution of the ...

You have captured well the "best of autumn". Thank you ! I also use the 24-105 extensively. I regularly go hiking in the nearby Haute Savoie mountains with a group of friends, and find that that ...

Beautiful autumn colours ! I am not as lucky as you to live in the alpine "grischuna" valleys. But I am close to the "Haute Savoie". Some images from last week.

I know of a professional who went to Argentina many years ago to document a region of Patagonia. All his equipment was stolen in Buenos Aires - but his wife still had her Konika C35. So - he did ...

Yes. If it is important for your work and livelyhood. Do protect that at all costs !

I systematically convert my camera raw files to DNG using the Adobe DNG converter. Since I am still using Photoshop CS6 (I refuse to accept the new Adobe policy) my A7R3 files are no longer ...

It depends on the quality you want. Photoshop allows you to easily photomerge multiple images and produce high resolution panoramas which you can edit as you like. I regularly use that procedure ...

Can't do much better...

I have been using my A7R3 these last 4 years for hiking - and always use the neckstrap....

I have been using the R3 since 2018. The higher MP and quality of the sensor have in all cases been totally satisfactory for reframing and processing of the images.

I would keep the 24-105.

Absolutely: Sensor size <--> physics and the nature of light.

I agree. Boat missed. I now almost exclusively use a Sony A7R3 (but occasionally also with my Pentax lenses and an adapter... ) and only take out the K1 when the weather gets really bad.

Thank you for your appreciation, and I fully understand your opinion regarding processing. One does often see much too heavily and un-naturally processed images of landscapes. I have sometimes ...

When I bought my A7RIII in 2017, just 5 years ago, I also got the FE 4/24-105 lens. I did not expect it to be such a good all-round lens at the time. Since then I have been using it almost ...
