I might have missed the humour, sorry.
The lens is 2.1KG the body is 657g - so less than 3kg in total
Yes, a tongue-in-cheek comment from me
Should have said "feels" heavier than that

Sometimes I wonder about the 400 GM, I shoot a lot of sports for the schools...
Problem is it's usually 3-6 hours of photography, changing sports every hour with multiple matches simultaneously - spending 5-15 minutes at each game..
I think a 400GM would be pretty cumbersome.. the 100-400 is doing just fine
I’d like a 300mm f2.8

You will have to use mechanical shutter at the moment on R5 but I imagine canon will eventually come out with A1 competitor.
I thought the A9ii had anti-flicker?I stick with Sony because of the silent shooting, and I bought the A1 because they improved it with anti-flicker
I wonder if Canon plans to make eshutter a priority..

That's an amazing deal for a new one! Cheaper than grey importIn case anyones after a 70-350 Amazon are doing them for £599 today.
I've just seen the price for the faster UHS-II . Anyone have recommendations?
I got the Sony 300mb/s cards, before tough were out.
Depends if you're likely to fill the buffer and need a fast clear
I don't really care about buffer on my a7R IV but the "not being able to change settings for some unknown reason when the card is being written to" is irritating.
We're not all legends like you though Les.My God how long does it take to write to your SD? I have a 128GB class 10 and it;s almost instant

Nice to have some recognition at last- thank you
Not a legend- I just have good gear & I asked you a civil question, no need for smart comments

Not if you burst shoot, the A7RIV really frustrated me while it wrote to the cardMy God how long does it take to write to your SD? I have a 128GB class 10 and it;s almost instant

Morning everyone! After 13 years with Pentax I have now started my migration to Sony. A9 / Sigma 24-70 / Tamron 70-180 on order from Panamoz and hope to add a tele in the future. I had planned on migrating a year ago but obviously life was put on hold. Sadly my K5ii died a few months back so I've been without a camera ....
Anyway - I thought I should probably upgrade my memory cards as I haven't actually bought new ones for 8 years and I've just seen the price for the faster UHS-II . Anyone have recommendations? I've always bought Sandisk in the past and never had a card fail (even my original 4Gb cards from 13 years ago still work, though slowly!) but Sandisk also seem to be the most expensive. I've never heard of Prograde but I've also seen Manfrotto do their own brand now?
I realise I've just ordered almost £4k of gear so stumping up for memory cards isn't the biggest expense
I got a Manfrotto UHS-II card following recommendations in this thread and it's been great in my A9. Read speeds from my Kingston reader to computer is almost 100MB/s so I'm happy with that. This seemed like a good read: https://www.cameramemoryspeed.com/sony-a9/fastest-sd-cards-uhs-i-vs-uhs-ii/
I got mine at half price and they seem to do offers every now and then. At the moment there's an indirect half price offer in that if you buy two then the second one is only £1. It has to be two identical cards though, so bear in mind one of the A9 card slots is only UHS-I and not UHS-II. I run a dual setup where my photos save to the UHS-II slot and my videos save to the UHS-I slot.

Guys, what's Einfiniy turn around times like for lens order - delivery please?
I've just been told my 35GM is being shipped from Sony on the 6th, so a few days in transit to the shop, then shipped out to me add a weekend...... So I'm going to see it what, w/c the 12th??
I got a Techart adapter arrive today, allows autofocus with Leica M lenses
It does this be moving the whole lens back and forth by up to about 4.5mm
It is amazing... works with C-AF, tracking, eye detection - all taken my on Sony A9 with the Leica 28mm 1.4 Summilux

A friend ordered some lenses about 10 days ago and no sign of them yet.
Great price Tommy -I used mine for hair light and similar for portraits and 360 flashes is enough for one outdoor shoot for me
Ooh nice. I just need to be able to afford Leica Lenses first It’s still pickling my noodle how an adapter can turn manual lenses into AF onesI got a Techart adapter arrive today, allows autofocus with Leica M lenses
