Ok, i see a few people mentioned photography is a business, i disagree as many photographers do not do it to make money. My view on what makes a good photographer, essentially, you need to understand 3 things. Light - Understanding light is one of the key elements to being a good...

I have the A7RIII and A9, High res sensor aside, there are big difference between the A7 and A9, the A9 is in a whole other level, not just its 20fps speed but speed overall, turning on, going through menus, it is FAST! and then there is the AF, it really is another level over pretty much...

I picked up mine Monday evening, i havent had a chance to really give it a good work out yet but coming from a D800e so far it is everything i expected it would be!

As well as practising at home, take a look at the venue if you can, better if you can visit during the time you will be shooting there to see what the light is like and get some test shots to fine tune your settings. With those, its also a good idea to start getting an idea of what type of...

Both the Tamron and the Sigma 17-50 2.8 lenses are very highly regarded. I have the Sigma and have used the Tamron, both super sharp with really nice Bokeh, i would say the only thing that sets them apart is the Sigma feels more solid to hold and use. I would say you would be very wise to...
