it does have animal EyeAF but Sony don't say bird eye AF and if it that i would have thought they would have made a big deal over it however it may get the eye on a close bird .

Nothing I have seen so far suggests any of Sony bodies are any where close to R5/6 for animal eyeAF. A9/ii still seem to have a very slight advantage for subject tracking and humans. I personally would take R5 over A9II any day.

In some ways i would like an R5 for the AF and the MPs BUT there is no RF 600 F4 I think my a9mkII and FE 600f4 would be so close to getting the shot that there would be very little in it between the 2 systems ..

Good thing about canon is the EF lenses work just as well as native lenses. So you could purchase the adapter and stick it permanently on to the EF 600mm f4.

"Flickr Explore"
It always baffles me as to how they make their selections etc. I went absolutely ages without even getting a snap in Explore and then all of a sudden I seem to be one of the flavours of the month or three. I have another snap selected today, that's 27 (I think) during the past three months or so. It's a landscape that I snapped with my RX10M4 from my own vacation cottage at Dungeness and I'm not really even into Landscape style photography and certainly not very good at it compared to what I see on this and other threads on TP. It'll eventually find its way on to this thread I expect but in the mean time I'm quite naturally pleased with the snap being selected but remain totally baffled.

Ice on the car roof. A7 and Voigtlander 35mm f1.4 at f8 + No.4 close up filter and then 100% crop.
Just a bit of fun. f1.4.
The roof of the car looked awesome at 7:00 this morning!
The windows I wasn't so happy about Well, aside from the windscreen, I just press a button for that

It’s a great panorama. Not been up for over a year due to incapacity, but I might manage it this spring. Good view of Ingleborough and Pen-Y-Ghent. This bridge is only a couple of minutes walk from our door.
First time out with the camera in a while - not my usual thing.. woodland photography is harder than it looks and I dont have a flair for it - but had to get out a fire a few frames off

The difficult thing is trying to keep things simple. Good to be out though isn't it? We're forecast snow early tomorrow!! Looks like it's going to be a nice sunset too shortly!

This is our local 'Milky Way' tree too. And, it's right opposite 'that' favourite woodland (of the recent foggy images)

I don't mind scraping the windows but recently there's been a lot of condensation on the inside of the windscreen, I've no idea why. The thing is that I pulled something in my right shoulder some time ago and I'm still having problems so cleaning the inside of the windscreen is a problem, much more so than the outside.
Other than that.
Getting me through the day. A7 and Voigtlander 35mm f1.4 at f2.8 and ISO 8,000. The artificial lighting adds to the noise.

Condensation on the inside means water on the inside. So check for leaks, damp carpet. Could also be a pollen filter that needs changing.I don't mind scraping the windows but recently there's been a lot of condensation on the inside of the windscreen, I've no idea why.

Also try to use the air con more often. Inside and outside temperature affects it too.
Anyway, alarm set for 6:15 this morning and down in Brizzle we have snow!!
