    The Amazing Sony A1/A7/A9/APS-C & Anything else welcome Mega Thread!

    Bang on. When powered up, no rattling at all. I read that when power is connected something magnetic happens with the motors. Probably the flux capacitor reaching 88mph.

    The Amazing Sony A1/A7/A9/APS-C & Anything else welcome Mega Thread!

    Hi all. New to this thread. I recently got a Sony A6700 along with a Tamron 17-70mm f2.8. Which is all good. But boys being boys I wanted more. I bought myself a Sony 50mm f1.4 GM and it finally arrived today. About an hour ago I had a little look and noticed the lens clunked/rattled inside...

    Do I Need A Filter As A Beginner

    You mean you think they sold the lens because they thought the lens was poor or damaged when it fact it was the filter?

    Do I Need A Filter As A Beginner

    This. As much as I appreciate people taking their valuable time to reply to my query, I have absolutely no idea about much of what’s being said. From what I can gather, knowing the purpose of filters (which I don’t at this point in my journey) warrants using them. I was only thinking about...

    Do I Need A Filter As A Beginner

    Thanks for the replies. I agree with the hood and just being careful (I am very picky with my gear. I look after everything). The lens comes with a hood and a bag so this is probably the way forward as to not reduce the IQ. Especially for a beginner.

    Do I Need A Filter As A Beginner

    Hi all, New (ish) to photography. Not shot for over 10 years and pretty much forgotten everything. I am now getting back into it and I am committed now that I have the time. I recently purchased a Sony A6700 & Tamron 17-70mm f2.8. Purchased a couple of weeks ago. Today I bought myself a...

    Back in the game!

    Hi all, Have to say, I’m looking forward to shooting again. Been out of the photography hobby for many, many years now and oh how I have missed it. I’ve always been a very amateur hobbyist, but there is something about photography that draws you in! Any how, today I purchased a Sony Alpha 6700...

    Full frame or not.

    Again, very valid points there. Thank you for the post :) As I had said before. It's just something I want and the wife wants. We don't have to be, nor claim to be, pros to have one. I always read how excellent the IQ is on a 5D. So studio work with a camera that produces a better IQ seems to...
