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

    I grabbed a Viltox 50mm f2 although not for such a good price. Impressed by the IQ and build so far.

    Geekom Mini Computers Versus Mac Mini

    How do you like MacOS? And what do you need the upgrade for? The M2 is still pretty powerful.

    No aperture ring but the Sigma 10-18 and 18-50 meet the rest of your criteria nicely.

    Move from Nikon D7100 to YouTube video setup?

    I would go this route. The Z50ii is very capable and you can keep your lenses.

    All great photos but love this one. Lots of time spent on the river there in my fitter days! "Find relief from stress" could be the wine shop's sales pitch.

    Photographing an illegible document

    Do they have access to an infrared camera, often used to pull out faded detail.

    Linux Mint

    Honestly this is one of those things that AI is particularly useful at solving. Installed Mint on my previous computer (replacing Windows 10) and everything worked great other than an old Canon Selphy printer. Tried for hours researching online and nothing. 10 minutes with Gemini and it was...

    Beginner Canon EOS R7 + Canon 100-400mm or OM-1 Mark II + M.Zuiko Digital ED 75-300mm II (or ED 100-400mm)

    From personal experience I would avoid the Olympus 75-300. As an alternative option I don’t believe anything touches the Sony A6700 + 70-350mm for a lightweight wildlife setup. Approx 1,100g, the lens is in a different class and the Sony AF is fantastic.

    Telephoto up to 300mm for Sony a6400

    The 70-350mm as mentioned is a great lens. If you need better low light performance the Tamron 70-180. For a cheaper option the Tamron 70-300.

    Enjoying the A1 but mostly the XS focus option, why did it take Sony so long to add when other brands have had for years...?
