Loving this camera. Went out to try and get a shot of the local barn owl. It was after sunset around 9.45pm and I was at 560mm handheld f8 at ISO 20,000 and around 1/400th shutter and it managed to track and focus about 8 out of 10 shots.
The olympus would have got me nothing and I never went over 3200 ISO with it and mainly stayed well below.
Okay, not the best quality pics but its a usable shot for example. This is with a 100% crop as well from memory.
fire away, Although if we start discussing different sony camera's , the mods have said they will merge all together to create one "The official A7/A9 series thread sort of thing"
I got the Canon fd mount adapter , a cheap one from ebay and it does the trick. AM able to set the appature fine on my canon fd lenses
They should have already done this because it makes logical sense to have one thread for all A7 3rd gen / A9 due to the similarities. If they don't so it in the next few days then I will create a new thread because having separate ones with mixed discussion is confusing. It would be a shame to lose all this historical discussion though.
Maybe worth you sending them a request to do so like I did A while ago ?
Bit of mis-information there @jonneymendoza ... you requested that we merge them all and I pointed out that one of the threads is 19 pages deep, whereas the others are relatively small.
Hi EVH. Thanks for merging the threads. I take your point but I think in this instance there is an unusual amount of crossover because the Sony 3rd generation cameras are fundamentally very similar in so many respects, more so than Canons or Nikons. So many principles can be applied for each camera that the various threads just ended up with mixed discussion. At the very least this thread should now serve as the central discussion thread, and then if people want to create sub threads for anything else they are free to do so. Thanks again.
