Was it a bad back or bad photography forced the sale lol
Since I'm not a wedding photographer who thinks he's better than everyone else I decided it was too much for my needs.

I think theres a possibility of it coming out for current gen (mk3 and A9).
I most definitely don't think I'm better than everyone else. Photography in the scheme of things isn't life changing. Perspective is important - all we are doing is taking photographs not saving lives
Calm down lad
It would be great if Sony did offer it on the current generation but Sony aren’t that great for addition big features via firmware updates tbh
The A9 will not make me a better photographer but it will give me the opportunity to get photos I would not have got with the D750 and even the A73.

to just 'slag them off with insults' is not really a discussion IMO.
Hi JJ,
it really depends on what the definition of 'a better photographer' means?
In my opinion (again I wasn't the one who started the Leica thing and then instantly started throwing insults around because I didn't agree with a response) if a camera, no matter what make/model etc allows you to capture images that you couldn't before there must be an arguement that it makes you better? You have a photograph that you otherwise wouldn't have?
Likewise if the Camera 'inspires' you to take more photographs then you will take more pictures and as @Radiohead states - practice is very important.
Different cameras make different people 'tick' - to just 'slag them off with insults' is not really a discussion IMO.
What sort of shots were you missing with the 750 and a73? You finding the a9 a big step up from the 73?
You keep telling me to calm down when it was you attacked me for no reason I'm calm as anything, having a lemsip here for the man-flu, beautiful morning, awaiting delivery of a new lens, all is very well.
Can't beat waiting on some lovely glass being delivered. Wasn't attacking you lad. Relax your good self
I like these Alan but you should really consider a Flickr account as the compression is 'hurting' your posted images. As the other day the crops you produced were sharp but the whole image was let down by the image hosting.
The Leica M10D, again the reviewers love it and don't think its dumb!

I just wish flickr would not compress on here. On flickr things look so much nicer. Host on a forum and it all goes a bit to s***!
Not so much missing shots - it just gives me more shots to choose from. For instance when taking a pic of the horse jumping, people prefer different aspects - the taking off, the just taken off, the mid jump, the landing etc. 6.5 FPS does sound quick, but it just wasnt quick enough. I could capture a decent single shot, but the A9 just gives me a great sequence to pick from!
As for the A73. I did find myself missing tracking the odd bit - especially at 10fps as its not live view as such.
The Zero black out and the quality of the EVF make the A9 a step up for what I shoot. Butfor the majority of users the A73 remains such a good value all round camera!
True. I guess its a hard thing to judge really.
The A9 works for me - makes me want to get out more and I think you are right, the most important thing is enjoying your gear, or you just will not use it!
Been getting feedback from the people who I have taken pics of, and this is one of the most pleasing aspects of photography for me.

What are the Flickr alternatives? Any other free ones or ones that do not cost much per year?
IMGUR?
I'd never heard of it. Can other people see your pictures on there?
I'd rather they couldn't.
I just upload to IMGUR for forum posting.
Do these look compressed?

No they don't look compressed, much better than Flickr.
Which method do you use for linking to the images on Imgur Raymond? Image Link, Direct Link, BB Code etc, which is the best method to use?
Graham
Many thanks, I'm going to try a little test and upload the same image from Flickr and from Imgur and see if there's a noticeable difference.bb code, cut and paste
They look night and day better than my flickr uploads!
Anyone use 500px?
Go back to the Canon thread and have fun there lol [emoji23]You're try harding way too much, it almost seems like you missed me
Go back to the Canon thread and have fun there lol [emoji23]

The new threads screwed already lolI daren't.
Looks like everyone has abandoned my thread anyway and I don't think people would appreciate too many posts from Sony owners in the new one.
Quality. I'm only kidding. I think me and u get along fine.haven't been in there in ages, you're as behind the times as the aperture twins [emoji14] I only popped in here because I knew you missed me I'm taking a more SsSsSsSsSnake approach lately, couldn't give a fiddlers about the gear, just random wandering about, best not mind me
The new threads screwed already lol Quality. I'm only kidding. I think me and u get along fine.
If it's true that you did not do well as a pro shooter. That ain't something to laugh about really and hope you can get back at it again or just enjoy it as a serious hobby instead

woof is the confused one btw, think he has me blocked so can't see my posts, bless
Jonneys is AFAIK under mine. I'm not really confused as I knew he wasn't talking to me but it sort of looked like he was. If you squint.
Lol Na half that post was me quoting cage blokeJonney, you're getting your posts / threads crossed. I was a computer/product guy and never attempted to be a pro photographer.
PS.
Love you too darling.
is the white balance a bit offphotos with a Sony camera..and canon lens.
