Looks nice! I'm late to this thread, but I recently added only a SSD to my aging Dell XPS tower, and it was like a new machine with just that one change. My aging spin-up hard drive was slowing ...

Thanks Steve.

Yeah, the Mule Deer was patiently grazing, not moving much, and I had a tripod with gimble. I have dozens of shots at faster shutter speeds and higher ISOs, but wanted to try for a lower ISO one ...

I won't be purchasing from Abe's or a non-dealer. But I could be tempted by used deals if the seller has a good history. I just hope the new prices from legit sellers start coming down. Thanks for ...

Wow, crazy story with the Russia purchase. I'm glad you were cautious with that one. Thanks for the insight.

Abes of Maine is a retailer offering new a99ii's at low price also... am I the only one finding this strange? Abes of Maine a99ii

Lately I've followed used pricing for a99ii bodies on Amazon and eBay - typically the asking price is $2500-$3000 in US dollars. Today there are multiple listing for new a99ii bodies on eBay in ...

I think Sony's a7iii is priced right to keep it in the full frame mass market appeal zone, not just for long-time enthusiasts and prosumers. If they could score some shelf space for it in Costco...

I'm not shooting full frame yet, but I'm curious how frequently you need f/2.8 at that wide focal range for travel shots. Seems like I would be stopping down more often for deeper DOF, so a 16-35 ...

They are frequent residents (almost year round) near the Great Salt Lake and surrounding areas. Not very stealthy either - and their broken wing acting skills are downright hilarious when you get ...

We regularly get killdeer nesting in the rocks in our yard, almost always 4 eggs laid, but with neighborhood predators lately it's rare to see them survive several weeks to hatch. This time we saw ...

Nice gallery! I enjoyed the architecture and portraits especially.

Just a few, one posed and two candids. This is my brother in law with his kids.

Nice edge-to-edge sharpness on the bricks, and it's great to see a combination of sensor resolution and lens quality and photographer's eye capture a fun slice of life like this. At 100% you can...

Great! Post some pictures when you get one and have had a chance to use it a bit.

I enjoyed renting a 70-400 for a trip to Yellowstone long ago. Then I went back with my own 70-300 and missed the extra reach. Depending on how long your trip is you might look into lensrentals or ...

I strongly recommend the Tokina 11-16/f2.8. It's very sharp, has a fast aperture and great color saturation. Also a short minimum focus distance. And I think I saw it on sale for under $300 ...

Yeah, I tighten the wheel as much as I can, but something about walking around with the heavy flash above eventually jogs it loose. It doesn't fall off, but I know it's lost a solid connection ...

My legacy Minolta flash is actually a 5600HS - my mistake earlier in referencing the 5400. But I ended up ordering a rental Sony flash. All the responses above are very much appreciated. I think my ...
