Right, it has the DB logo. Might be a DB Diesel loco. But the track doesn't look like german railways because of the third trail on each side. Some power supply for E-trains/locos?

Any shorter lens like the 24-70 should fit fine in the upper part of the backpack where the larger diameter of the 200-600 doesn't occupy the entire middle section. Well, I've put in the 2,8/70-200 ...

Hi, just some thoughts: 1) My A99II does today as well as it does on day 1 - simple and easy. And it still holds up well IQ wise to the latest. 2) The reason-of-being of the marketing departments ...

Hi, shooting my 70-400 over a pretty broad range of bodies, starting at the A700, then A850, A99 and up to now the A99II I've never come across what you're reporting. And sports photography, ...

Hi, a couple of photos from last weekend with a historical steam engine operating during Frankfurt's Christmas Market.

Hi, a somehow curious reality in Germany's railway service on secondary routes: a relatively modern local service Diesel-Electric VT280 unit in the Lahn river valley beneath Schadeck Castle passing ...

Hi, some nice, sharp shots there. Some years ago I came over a similar thread with a discussion of what was the most popular look, moment and position when horse jumping and IIRC most who are doing ...

Almost as good as: "How far is its reach?" :-)

Hi, for shooting surf I've seen a broad range of lenses, from 70-200 up to 600mm primes. The main question is how distant is the action or how close you'll get - which depends a lot on the shooting ...

Hi, well, I got a beer, prepared some popcorn and now I'm waiting relaxed sitting in an armchair for someone coming around the corner with the definte answer to this question. :-) But back to more ...

Hi, I think you've answered your question in part yourself. There are limits certainly on both ends: when the cam's AF speed is held back by the speed the lens could execute the adjustment ...

Hi, from my POV there are two possible approaches: 1) In line what the previous poster already suggested you might need a lens that is up to the demand for ultra fast focussing on (more ore less) ...

Hi, while I see the advances in NR of high ISO images and applaud the achievements made I'm not very fond of the colour changes in the shown examples and, perhaps even more important for me, the ...

Hi, good luck with that decision. I'd add the option of keeping the 70-400 and then perhaps adding the 200-600. Owning both with the 70-400 coming from A-Mount times (still shooting an A99II) I ...

Agree 100% At least for my (modest) needs so far when attempting time lapse video of nature phenomenon like sunrise, sundown or moon rise / down the (just) visual control and adjustment via back ...

Hi, sure no expert here and my timelapse experiences are limited to what my a6400 offers in its S&Q menu. What I'm wondering about is if the 180-degree-rule applies for this type of (largely) ...

Hi, I'd put the things a bit differently. 1) It's ultimately about "horses for courses" so if you need the MPs for printing big in high quality the 42MP of the A99II are better suited. 2) If you ...

Hi, and when you experiment with RAW it almost doesn't matter what you shoot: file size is always at about 20MB. This may be an important concern for selecting the "right" size for the used SD card.
