Bizarre. The one weakness with mirrorless is low-light AF speed. You would think that the easiest solution of AF illuminater on the hotshoe  flash would be their first priority. Phase detects ...

I am trying to figure out how to get the AF Illuminator on the HVL-F43M flash to be used when mounted on the A6000. With most longer lenses, the AF Illuminator in the camera itself is partially ...

Not sure if this needs clarification for the challenge poster, but some European countries consider "holiday" to mean vacation. Was this challenge supposed to be about holiday celebrations like...

You are very correct. I have an A6000 and a Canon SL1. The SL1's LCD is beautiful. I prefer my Sony A6000 in almost every regard, but I have to admit the LCD on the SL1 is just nicer looking. Seems ...

I agree that Ebay is a great place to buy or sell. With respect however, I can guarantee you that Ebay sides with whoever they think is right, not always the buyer. They don't side with the buyer ...

@bovverwonder Yeah, the dog picture looks noisy for 320, but that said, I have no idea how dark it actually was in that scene. It could have been dark dusk and it could be a great picture at that...

@bovverwonder I am fairly certain I was commenting on the bridge photo as a reply to your post that did not mention the dog. I wasn't passing judgement on the camera, only your comment about the...

It sounds like you have not shot any camera in moonlight only at ISO 400. This is pretty fantastic for handheld at ISO 400.

Looks great! At first I was skeptical about anything that looked like it attached with "string", but I realize those are actually heavy duty and not the flimsy string that comes with P&S cameras. ...

I am looking for a sling system that allows you to put a quick disconnect on all your cameras. Once that is mounted, you would have a selection of single point slings or wrist straps or dual ...

I recommend at least the 55-210, but if you have the $$, the SEL18200 is the perfect vacation lens. You can get a discount on the Hasselblad version from bhphotovideo. There used to be an even ...

Okay, I still have to get the 20M as the trigger, but I will try it whenever I get it.

How do I configure WL HSS? I only see WL as an option on the flash menu when the 43M is mounted. I know with the 43M I can only do HSS when it is pointing straight ahead.

Many photographers choose cloudy for any scene and never change it because it is warmer in general.

I went through a similar search and I have a thread about it here: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/56732760 Still have not found it. You can buy it for $110 from Sony parts dealers WHAT A DEAL! ...

+1 I have had this experience as well.

If Canon/Nikon/Pentax/Zeiss could make a 10-1000mm lens without any trade-off (size/cost/IQ), they would do it. My guess is that when 35-70mm was being manufactured, there was some trade-off to ...

This is really useful information, thank you for the reply! I had not considered using a high iso as a metering check for low iso long exposure.

Okay, sounds like this is the right way to go. The F20m also seems nice for light bounce situations by itself, so I think that is the way to go. Thanks!

Excellent, I think that is what I will do. I would get the HVL_F20M version (M not AM) which is the standard hotshoe instead of the old Minolta hotshoe. I think the functionality is the same tho.
