    Selling Sony Lenses ?

    What are you selling? I am looking for a 16-70mm E mount lens that cost an arm and a leg long ago for my Nex-6... also looking to upgrade perhaps to a A6100 instead... too long out of the picture...

    Sony a99 Mark II

    Dude, just take the memory card on and stick it into a USB3.0 card reader lar... simple right? Seriously, this is targeted at pros or high end enthusiasts who will probably go through a few cards for each shoot... the memory card reader is the real deal for file transfer... even with my A99, I...

    Sony a99 Mark II

    The A99 handles like a dream... but it's really too heavy with the CZ24-70 lens... so I seldom use it now... take it out for critical shoots... and cos of that I am not too familiar with the interface already... a bit sianz... the NEX-6 that I have is too far away in terms of features and ease...

    a6300 or A7 or A7II

    Just keep your Nex-7... the A6300 is better in some ways, but not better in terms of battery life, and lens range... which are critical issues IMO... I'm sticking to the Nex-6 for now until the A6300 gets a better version.

    Sony A6300, finally!

    Honestly, I thought of upgrading to this A6300... I use the Nex-6 now. It's a very handy size but a few problems that plague this Nex-6 are still issues for the A6300... 1) No dedicated focus point shift joystick (this a amateur camera, so this is a must) 2) Black-out time on EVF is too...

    Sony a99 Mark II

    Darn... I just that A99 one year back... if I had known this was going to launch I would have waited for this... sianz... this is so much better than the A99... I can't quite stand the long black-out time in the EVF, and also the long read and write times...

    Sony A6300, finally!

    I really love this A6300... I find the Nex 6 rather limiting... ISO performance isn't that good... can't really take action shots... doesn't focus fast enough... I was about to pull the trigger to get a second hand A6000 but then I pulled out just two days before this A6300 was launched. This...

    FLASH FOR SONY A7R II ADVICE NEEDED.

    Totally agree... the 60AM has overheated on me on two occasions... and it takes quite a while to cool down. It lasts longer if you're shooting at less than 1/4 power... it shuts down very quickly on continuous firing at 1/1 power.

    FLASH FOR SONY A7R II ADVICE NEEDED.

    To Lancelot, If you want to use flash where the backlighting is very strong, then you expose for the background. Choose an ISO that gives you as low a shutter speed as possible without getting blurred images. Then set the flash on manual and use maybe 1/16 to 1/4 power flash adjusting for the...

    FLASH REPAIR - F58AM

    May not be very worth to repair it if it's a circuit problem. Actually, I find that Sony Centre is pretty reasonable in their charges. Diagnosis is just $10.70. And they will call you before taking further action if replacement parts are required. Otherwise, I have sent in my A900 to get them to...

    A6000

    Hi, I'm using a Nex 6 + PZ 16-50 mm now and the AF isn't too good... I take candid shots of people and places and often need to focus fast enough before people get bored posing... so the a6000's AF seems rather attractive. I would prefer to buy a kit, just want to ask if the a6000 and 16-70...
