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.

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...

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

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...

Thanks very much Garry, I’ll have a read.

Now I’m thinking I should get one. Just in case :)

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.

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...

Thanks very much. I’ll pop over and have a good read.

I’m sure I have no idea as to what you are referring to sir. ;)

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...

Hi guys, Phil said it might be worth me popping this on this thread for anyone who is interested in a great workout. http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=492192 Worth a shot I suppose. Good luck to all with the fizz. I'm on it too at the mo. running and MTB. Lost 8...

Greetings all, Been in Afghanistan for the last 7 months but am now back and keen to pick up my photography bug again. Just thought I would pop in and say hello to everyone again. Hope you are all well. Jon

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...

:) no need my man. Got rid of my bikes.
