It doesn't cost a lot to experiment wit older Nikon 50mm lenses and you will get a different look. However, I believe Nikon did a great job with the 50mm 1.4G. Get one and compare out-of-camera to ...

Thank you, and to Robert. ALS is truly horrible for young people, but I am old, so I'm good with the prognosis, just not the helplessness. I just thought it revealing that when you know you are ...

My ALS is moving very fast. I can no longer participate in one of my most beloved pastimes, not even with the tiniest camera or a cellphone. I have owned so many Nikon film and digital cameras ...

I like this. More aperture blades in the lens would have been nice for the flare stars but very good anyway.

Really nice photos.

You are so lucky, as are all the Df owners here. I no longer have mine, and I miss it. I could no longer handle it, so I downgraded to a smaller Sony A7II. The photos are great but not Df great. ...

I don't see it that way. The A7II can't really compete with the a6000 when it comes to size, weight and performance, although it has other attractions. I think owning both is the best solution.

I believe you have made a good case for shooting RAW+JPEG. It seems to me a hassle to constantly change JPEG settings for varying situations. Shooting RAW the only thing you need to do is vary ...

Really nice photos and what a great, great lens. Someday it will be considered a classic I do believe.

Good read. Thanks. My expectation is that the next model will be all about 4k video, and that holds very little attraction to me. Sensors are going to need a major advance to improve on still ...

and I believe they do, within the limits of 8 bit images. I am simply saying, why waste the option of more detail in case you find your JPEG has reached its limitations in a particular photo. Or ...

I like your treatment of the sky in #1 and #3. It is such that I wonder that maybe the sky should not have been a larger percent of those. But that is all down to taste, and of course we all know ...

You have posted some very pleasing images, IMO. But these are all about BLACK, and they are a little too extreme for me. I found myself looking very closely for detail in the #2 picture because I ...

I cannot understand the idea of JPEG "only" with these powerful cameras. RAW+JPEG is simply not a problem with the Bionz processor and a decent memory card. If you need the RAW file it is there, ...

Nothing solid yet. But think about this: I don't believe there has been another camera produced with a price/performance value as high as the a6000, and I doubt a more expensive replacement can ...

I am fed up with my iMac. I just spent 2 days getting the new operating system up. Now for the first time in a couple of years I mistakenly slipped a memory card into the DVD slot. I am so ...

That's great. Royal Crown (my favorite), great sign, as well as the 7up. I think B&W is the best and only choice for this. Straight out of the 40s and 50s. Brings back some memories.

I like it.  Reminds me of Lord of the Rings.

It will handle the a6000 with attached lens, the 55-210 and cleaning kit (small). There is also room for spare batteries, cards and a polarizer. Very compact.

I would like some of these features on my A7II, but on balance I will take the A7II. As to whether Canon lenses are fully operable on this Sony, I don't care. And how stupid would Sony be to make...
