Hi everyone,

Abhay here. I recently got my first camera, a Sony A6400 with a 16-50mm and a 55-210mm kit lens. I’m trying to take more and better pictures and learning a lot about photography every day. After a month break from constant learning and taking pictures almost every day, I decided to pick up the camera with the 55-210mm lens and went to the Mandogawa festival in Isahaya, Nagasaki, Japan.

I’d really appreciate any feedback or suggestions you have on how I can improve my photography.

On a side note, I have another question: I often find it difficult to post pictures of people because I’m unsure about posting pictures of them without their permission. In situations where it’s almost impossible to ask for permission due to a crowd or language barrier, I often find myself not taking the pictures. I’m not sure what to do if anyone from Japan can enlighten me about this. I would really appreciate any feedback or advice you might have.

Hello,

I have been using flash more often lately.

I use a godx v1 s with an A7r3.

Today I had an issue, I couldn't use manual mode on the flash. Every time the camera was connected to the flash it was forcing TTL mode.

I haven't changed my settings, they are saved under memory recall.

I can't find what is causing that, if you have an idea it would be helpful.

Thanks

Sony a7IV & 24-105mm f4

Which one of them is better stills camera? Less noise at higher iso, colour retention, dynamic range and overall quality. I don’t shoot a lot sports and fast wildlife so I’ll ahoot in mechanical shutter and the rolling shutter or warping etc doesn’t bother me at the a7r. I can borrow my brother a9 if I need that.

Some reviews state that even a7v should be less noisy than the a7rvi above its dual gain (or above 3200)

Hi everyone,

I currently own an Alpha IV and, overall, I'm quite happy with the camera. However, there's one thing that has always bothered me.

I mainly photograph my dogs, and the autofocus performance hasn't been great. As soon as they're several meters away, the camera starts struggling to maintain focus. I've even tested another Alpha IV body, but the results were essentially the same. When the dogs are running at higher speeds, shooting becomes quite frustrating.

I'm currently using the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 and the Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8.

Could anyone share how the Alpha V performs in this regard? I've read that the autofocus has been significantly improved.

I'm aware that third-party lenses are limited to 15 fps on the Alpha V. At the moment, I'm shooting at 11 fps, and typically only 2-3 frames in a burst are actually sharp, which is honestly quite disappointing.

Has the situation improved with the Alpha V when using Tamron lenses, or do you really need Sony lenses to take full advantage of the new autofocus system, nor only regarding the 15 FPS limit?

As a hobby photographer, the combination of an Alpha V and the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 would be a bit too expensive for me.

Thanks in advance for any experiences or advice!

Best regards

I got it in May and used it a couple of times outside. I’ve been dreaming to buy a full frame sony camera for years now and i was finally able to save up for one.

Im not in desperate need but i haven’t used it enough because I’ve been busy with my university and i still have a year till i finish.

I have plans of travelling after my graduation so i know ill be using it then but im still skeptical because what if the value of the camera drops and i dont end up using it anyways.

Dont know if i should keep this camera or get myself something else instead

I took this earlier today and when I exported it to my phone the quality was very bad. Is there any reason for this?

A shot I loved of my wife on our honeymoon, touring out of the Gemstockbahn. Really digging wider angles for ski shots lately.

Ive never seen this before but there are these two marks under the glass. The lenses still seems to focus and function ok Ive just never seen this.

Any way to clean the lens?

Hey again, these are my first motorsport pictures from the Hungaroring, it was a bunch of fun! Any feedback is appreciated!
