It is difficult as I do not have a direct comparison, sometimes it nails the shot, other times I feel the tracking is not sticky as it should be and it takes awhile to lock on, perhaps I am expecting too much. The A1 refocuses 6 times faster. Also the higher frame rate will offer more choice of...

Sony 200-600mm. I find the black out terrible at high fps, especially when panning quickly, it is like being poked in the eye whilst trying to focus. Shutter to suit but normally over 2500. Sometimes manual, sometimes electronic shutter, however with electronic I do sometimes get bad distortion...

Help……. Generally I do not normally ask for advice, however, with technology changing ever quicker and also increasing prices, I feel in a quandry. I am a keen hobbyist, I shoot most genres but I do have a strong tendency towards wildlife, my old camera was a Nikon D500 and I moved to Sony 2...

Grey imports where destined for another part of the world where retail prices, import taxes and local taxes all differ and are generally much cheaper than U.K. prices. They are exactly the same as a U.K. model, the only differences are sometimes you won’t get an English manual, I have heard of...

I have the D500 which I love, but it can look a bit out of place on the table when you take the missus out........ I looked around considered a compact but wanted a viewfinder and the opportunity to change lenses if required, didn’t fancy used but had a limited budget, I opted for the Sony A6000...

Just tried it myself, as I already have version 4, after registering you get an email back, mine clearly offers downloads for both PC and Mac and the registration code you use. Any problems drop them an email, they are very helpful

Just check your allowance, flew with Air Transat last year, cheap as chips to Canada, they allowed normal carry-on plus another small bag, handbag or camera case, took the Loewpro flipside AW400 and the Sigma in its own case as it was under the size for the extra bag.

Got the info from this months Practical Photoshop, February 2020

I haven’t downloaded it as I already have version 4, if I try on my iPad you have to give your name and email which I presume sends you to a download, Redsnappa has done it by the looks of it. make sure you type it into the address bar as that’s the only way it works, don’t google it. hope this...

Luminar 3 is free to download until 30th April 2020 Just type skylum.com/dcw-luminar into the address bar.

The focal length is 4.3-215mm as you said this is the actual focal length of the lens, the equivalent range to a 35mm/full frame DSLR is 24-1200mm. Most but not all DSLRs come in two different sensor sizes, asp-c which is the smaller sensor and the full frame sensor which is equivalent to 35mm...

Totally agree with what f/2.8 says, most of the second hand gear I see for sale the bodies and lenses are more expensive than buying grey. Buying grey you will normally get a minimum of a years warranty, used will get you normally 6 months at best or zero if buying privately....... Bought a...

Thanks will check it out.

Hi, Just getting into the post processing, built a starter/midrange PC and so far been using a cheap flatscreen TV as a monitor which is pants to be honest. Looking to purchase a monitor, budget is not fantastic £300ish possibly £400 at a push. Been trolling tinernet and my head is spinning two...
