Yeah well but you will need it... maybe one yearAfter 30+ years where I fired a flash maybe a dozen times I've acquired a Godox TT685II-C... Bloody badgers

Nah, it's getting fired so regularly that occasionally it goes into overheat protection mode. Couple of hundred shots of the badgers a night will do that.Yeah well but you will need it... maybe one year
Well done, a rare find indeed.I really wasn't thinking of adding any digital cameras to my collection, that was until I come across a D1H boxed and unused.
What does the A1 do that your other cameras don't do? genuine question; not snarky.I've always drooled over the Sony a1 but too much money
Now, if I was to sell my 3 Sony bodies - a7c kit, a7R4a & a9, then that would go a long way to achieve my dream
BUT!!... I really need a new computer first as my PC is ancient and is really struggling with my 61mp images and some of the new software packages

It's only a matter of time . . .Gosh, I hope I don't catch real GAS like some of you have.
Well, I see it as a Jack-Of-All-Trades.What does the A1 do that your other cameras don't do? genuine question; not snarky.
Thats what I'm always being told by my other half.Go for it Mike
I've had a lot of upset in the last couple of years and my outlook now is that if you/we want anything and we can afford it and we're not hurting anyone we should go for it
I recently spent £79 on a TT Artisan 50mm f2
Well, if you can offset with trade ins then it will take the bulk / decision making out of packing more multiple bodies (and associated accessories) just in case x,y or z happens and the RX could be your back up. Makes sense to me in that context, especially if you are not shooting commercially and need gigantic prints.Well, I see it as a Jack-Of-All-Trades.
Almost the resolution of the a7R4 - I'm sure I wouldn't see the difference that 11Mp would make for landscape.
Better than my a9 for wildlife.
Unfortunately, not as compact as the a7c, however, I have an even more compact RX100vii that could possibly take its place

I’ve just got my Govt pension so ordered a z9 last Wednesday arrived yesterday that’s my treat for my retirementTime will tell
At the moment, I'm living off my savings until Govt pension kicks in next year so watching the pennies.
Nice oneI’ve just got my Govt pension so ordered a z9 last Wednesday arrived yesterday that’s my treat for my retirement
I need to start selling some cameras I’ve still got the d70 d200 d3 d7100 d750 d850 and the z6 heheNice one
Think I've bought and sold more cameras and lenses since I packed in work than I ever did before
I was going to say you have me beat, but I have just counted and I have one more, though in mostly smaller form factors.I need to start selling some cameras I’ve still got the d70 d200 d3 d7100 d750 d850 and the z6 hehe
I'm severely in need of help!!! After acquiring my D700 for some strange reason I started looking to see if there were any low shutter count Nikon D70 on the market.... Came across a mint boxed one with a mere 1276 shots...... and now it's in my possession.. My first DSLR was a D70 and it cost a hell of a lot more than what I paid for my latest acquisition!!!
You're on form today!Peak gas approaching - sprouts will do that to a nation!
I have had GAS for old rangefinders from the 50s and 60s. As I spend a lot of my time in the world of 35mm film images, image quality from my very modest 10y old mirrorless Samsung NX cameras with a couple of lenses is awesome in comparison. even my older Oly E420 DSLR remains very capable (in my eyes). Gosh, I hope I don't catch real GAS like some of you have. OTOH..... film is getting expensive.
If you are talking about "pipe dreams" then mine is the Olympus 150-400mm lensIn terms of GAS I still want an A1 and 400mm f2.8 but that’s just pipe dream GAS
Looks very photogenic, tooOK, not *exactly* GAS, but I ended up being 'given' a Harley Benton Aeolus semi-hollow guitar for Christmas - I ordered it and then the family contribute towards the cost. It's not exactly GAS because I'm doing more paying gigs now, and it didn't seem right to be playing a £35-off-ebay First Act.
The Aeolus is a lovely guitar for those who care about such things, and in conventional set-up form as it is now, it has a very precise feel and tone to it. Once I've changed it around for slide (tall nut, heavy strings, raised action) it will be a much more energetic instrument to play, but right now it just needs a feather-light touch. It's so nice that I'm seriously debating converting one of my other instruments for slide and keeping this 'as is'.

Thought about A7R3 but then I want the updated 2nd gen version and not many of those out there at a good price.
Also, tempted by the PRS S2 on sale right now with £900 off! But I don't really need another guitar, I have more guitars than I have cameras.
go for itIn terms of GAS I still want an A1 and 400mm f2.8 but that’s just pipe dream GAS
I need to rob a bank firstgo for it
