    End of season burn out. I have it too, one more race this season that I may not make due to a medical thing, but am ready for it to be over. I go through this every year, and know that by December will be wishing we were racing again. I try not to make any permanent statements until spring!!

    Sony Did anyone bother with the a1 firmware update?

    You should be able to see IS working in the viewfinder, it should go from shaky to steady. Is that what you mean?

    Not too early at all! Some folks started putting theirs up a few weeks ago. We've started too. New to our 2020 Haunt is this Demon Zombie display, our old zombie display was hacked together and starting to show it's age. 'Demonica' is an animatronic reissue from Spirit Halloween. I built the...

    Sony Lens Hood Alignment

    If the marks are off, then the bayonet connection is probably off. The hood can only go on right side up or at 180Ā°, which is how the mount lines up. It looks to me like the front of that lens has been removed and not retightened all the way, or possibly overtightened, or something has slipped...

    Sony Did anyone bother with the a1 firmware update?

    Except I found out a few weeks ago there is a neat hidden update or two they didn't tell us about. One is that you can put 5:4 (8 x 10) brackets in the viewfinder so you can compose with 8 x 10 in mind. That is important to me as this year I've been selling a dozen or so 8 x 10s each month...

    Sony A7RiV with the 200 600

    I bought one along with a Tamron 17-28 when I bought my A7 IV. They were my first E-mount lenses. It was on sale at the local shop for some kind of special Sony day for $1635. I have never seen it since for that price, and used prices for LN lenses at the national resellers are still more. Very...

    Sony Viltrox 28/4.5 Pancake with AF

    Well, the deals went early! There were only 50 available at 30% off, then more at 15%, and now there are a bout 900 at 10% off. Not worth it, I'll wait and see man on the street shots first.

    Sony Viltrox 28/4.5 Pancake with AF

    I own one 28mm prime, an old JC Penny lens in Minolta MD. It's the size of this I find interesting. It isn't going to mean much on my full-size bodies, but it'd be a fun 42mm on my A6000. Still haven't decided, I'm curbing my gear spending some, trying to hold off for something I really need in...

    Sony Viltrox 28/4.5 Pancake with AF

    Anyone interested in this lens? IQ looks acceptable for what it is. It'd be a nice compact lens on a C or APS-C. Aperture is fixed. Built in lens cap. Supposed to be just south of $100 US. Might be a fun lens, I've never had a pancake...

    A very sticky, fast track! People walking out of their shoes, one guy pulled the sole right off his boot! But it also causes trouble for the tuners. We had a high of 63Ā° F with a sun/cloud mix, and humidity with an air density altitude below 1000', the lowest it's been in a while. The track was...

    Now that I've gotten to know many of these people on a personal level, I don't think they do much with forums. They communicate on FB, but most of their time is spent BS'ing around bonfires or in the garage working on cars. If one guy has serious trouble, or if he's running behind getting ready...

    Sony Anyone been watching the lens rumors/releases?

    The Tamron 28-180/2.8 looks interesting. Iā€™ve been contemplating the 35-150/2-2.8. Part of me doesnā€™t want to give up the fast short end, but in reality itā€™s only f/2 from 35-41, then itā€™s f/2.2 until 60. After that itā€™s 2.5 and 2.8. I think the added focal range is worth the trade off for the...

    Seems like a lot lately. Tamron 50-200/2.8, 28-180/2.8, Viltrox 28/4.5 Pancake, Sigma 28-105/2.8. Tamron 50-300/4.5-6.3, Sigma 28-45/1.8, Tamron 28-300/4-7.1, others from Viltrox, Meike, etc. These are rich times we're living in, not sure I've ever before seen a lens selection as vast as this...

    Sony A65 SLT problem with GPS

    Is your camera an SLT-A65, or an SLT-A65V? GPS is only available on the 'V' model. If it is a V, then as painful as it may be, if all else fails I'd do a factory reset and start from scratch. There've been so many times a certain feature is blocked on a used camera due to some weird setting by...
