How about sell the Sony 100mm 2.8 STF and the Canon... then get a new Sony FE 85mm f1.4 G Master?

I was for more generous.... I said 6 months on the X-H1 thread
lol
it doesn't have the tec yet, maybe the A9iiiThe difficulty of birds in flight, is not to get them in focus - it's to actually create a good photograph, well composed, good light etc..
I have so many birds in flight shots now, but it's hard to actually find any that would make the grade of 'acceptable' when it comes to things like composition and what I think is a good wing shape.. why can't the A9 do that for me.
I didI am sure it does.... Canon is a very strong brand... some people will just buy a DSLR just because it as a Canon logo on it.
well in that case I'll have 2.
have to be a lot cheaper before I can get one
Probably, not had a chance to find out
Exactly. If the AF is nearly as good as the D850 then it's good enough for me.
That sucks
Lol, looks plenty sharp enough to me
They're looking good these bird pics, are they cropped at all?

TBH the biggest issue I have is seeing the bird, putting the camera up to my eye and then trying to find the damn thing through the viewfinder. 600mm is a completely different perspective to looking with the naked eye
That's the one I've had my grubby mits on, anything I touch instantly devalues
It would be nice if Sony did a double cash back offer now whilst they had this offer too

That's a point, is spot metering linked to the AF point or is it centre only on the latest Alpha models (A7iii, A7Riii, A9), and on wide (or matrix or whatever Sony call it) is there still some bias to the AF point. In wide on my Nikon I wish you could turn of AF bias for landscapes as it can really mess up the metering/exposure, and then turn it back on for everything else.There is a "cough" discussion going on in another thread about metering, it got me thinking since I have a slight obsession with meters and metering, the 1DX2 has linked spot meter to AF point as does the a9, it's meter covers 1.5% of the viewfinder, thus I thought I wonder what the meters coverage is in the a9? I see Sony show it as STANDARD or LARGE? So how big is then...? I know the Sony boffins will say its... STANDARD or LARGE
If Sony does cash back deals I may give in to GASThat's the one I've had my grubby mits on, anything I touch instantly devalues
