Any good bargains?

:)
 
I've forwarded the list of fw updates for a9 and surprisingly a few had mentioned some of the improvements to them already during the show.

They will forward it to the right channel so fingers crossed.

Lens are cheaper but camera are cheaper apart from a7iii being new out
 
Hi, has anyone here tried the 12-24 zoom, 100mm STF or the 90mm macro? These are pretty thin on the ground it would seem. I can find various reviews but I'm more interested in 'real' user reports from a non professional POV.
 
The A9 is going to prove expensive for memory cards.. for a 2 hour show I blitzed through in excess of 128gb..

In the future I might have numerous shows back to back for 8 hours.

The client is going to have a lot of great expressions to pick from though :)

... import takes an age too .. it's been importing one card for over an hour now.. I need to work out what the bottle neck is.

2 hours and you’ve filled up 128gb :o that’s some going, lol.
The bottle neck could be your workstation / laptop USB port?
 
Any tips on setting up the Camera guys.. Is there a beginner guide any of you know that is good for Sony Cameras as I would though most of the same menu wise?

From the few mins of playing with it I am impress the sharpness of the images I just cant believe it..
 
When I was shooting a play rehearsal today, where I was allowed to move around the edges of the stage - I used the single point expand and track option - it was better than using face detection. I could point at a person, it would expand to cover them and the have the AF follow them everywhere...

Was shooting with 24-70 2.8 zoom.
