  1. Just getting started again. More than 10 years after I sold all my analogue Nikon SLR gear I recently bought a Sony Alpha 77 SLT and some equipment.

     

    Here some samples what I got so far.

    Very nice!

     

    I have a sony a5100 I do video stuff with.

    For video, it's miles ahead of all other cameras in price range.

  2. I recently bought a telephoto Lens from  a friend, a full-frame Tamron 28-200mm. On my camera's APS-C sensor, it becomes a roughly 45-320mm lens. It's not image-stabilized, so I set it up on my sturdy tripod and tried my first attempt at photographing the moon with it. After a bit of experimentation, I settled on 320x, ISO-100, f8, 1-250th of a second exposure, and manual focusing. Just a fraction of a hair off from the Infinity mark gave the best focus. Here's the shot, cropped to enlarge the moon. No sharpening was done to it in post-processing:

    I would love to see the full res of this. I also have an APS-c and I've been curious how much of the moon I could get with a 200mm.

  3. I have to call shenanigans on the kids because we have no way of knowing whether or not someone is in front of the TV with a hand puppet. But you have to admire the marketing that tells us the Jedi are real. :respect:

     

    Oh, I'm sure you are right... but that's not the point. It's meant to portray what all the starwars fan boys are feeling when they see the trailer.
