Hey everyone, 

 

Glad to join this forum.  I've been shooting Sony since I switched over from Medium and Large format film in 2009.  My first Sony was the A900.

I hope I can be  resource for other Sony shooters with questions about Sony cameras.  

My current kit consist of Sony A7RII, A7II. A7SII, RX1 and RX100-3.  And I have shot with just about every sony camera in the RX and A series camera lines.

I  mainly shoot primes but will use the 16-35 F4 and new 70-200 F2.8 when the job calls for it.  My favorite lenses for my personal work are the Zeiss Loxia 21,35 and 50mm lenses.  

 

Anyways You guys can see some of my work here www.jayhemphill.com and also my Flickr page https://www.flickr.com/photos/jhemp_00/

I have albums set up on my Flickr page with examples from different Sony lenses I use.

Jay

    • I'd opt for a small zoom, but I must admit that there seems to be a dearth of lenses in the e-mount in the 24-50mm range -- for some reason.  I have a small 24-70mm, but that's an a-mount Tamron.  Maybe you can find something by looking at lenses slightly longer.  I have a heavy, but small 24-100mm a-mount, and Tokina made a 24-200mm a-mount.  Maybe there are similar lenses in the e-mount.  Kill three birds with one stone.
    • I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.
    • Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
