I've no issue using PS or LR. Both installed in my comp.
For the 10 photos, each photo must has same shutter speed, aperture n iso ?

Well he can try buying a ND400 and an hour long bulb exposure if he doesn't want Photoshop... Though arguably, with the cost of a proper ND400 + tripod it's prolly better to just buy PS under a educational license (if applicable).

Though, like you said, if it's a packed situation with a bunch of people standing still, maybe even an hour won't help lol.

As for raw conversion, Sony seems set to bundle Capture One Express (for Sony) for their stuff now (vs their own software)... so yeah that's your Sony raw converter right there. Unfortunately, it's 64-bit only, though that shouldn't be a problem unless you're running it on an Atom Tablet/Netbook

That said, CO - while immensely powerful - has a laggy UI and takes a looooooong time to complete processes, even with the Pro version. And this is on a i7 with 16GBs of blardy RAM.

LR is muchhhhhh better in this aspect, plus it actually runs on my Atom Tablet.

the last pic i thought was over cropped cause not shard and pixellation, maybe from compression online. the oof i referred to the shark

Sorry on mobile really hard to put spoiler.
OMG seriously? You sure your camera is A580 not a D4S? Lol

Will Sony camera be cheap in Japan?
How about system menu? Will it be in English?
How about warranty? Is it covered in Malaysia?

Thanks for the lengthy feedback, I appreciate your sharing. Guess, I will avoid buying from Japan then. We own a Sony Nex 6, was wondering if there is anything good to buy while in Japan. Do you think I should grab a E-mount Carl Zeiss lens? I currently have the 16-50mm kit lens only. Tested my friend's SEL24F18Z, it was very nice. Much crispier than our kit lens.
So no camera but what about must-have accessories for a Nex 6? Or lenses? Any recommendation for a good travelling lens? We are using 16-50 kit now.

That said, free 3-axis IBIS for any legacy lens is a delicious bonus on it's own, vs absolutely no IS with MF lenses that we're having now with the mirrorless troupe.

I'm wondering though, on the older Alpha series bodies, how many axis did the old SSS IBIS work on?

Exactly. Numbers on the pack are usually only read speed. Unless stated, expect the write speed to be considerably worse. And that's not even the half of it, similarly rated "write speed" cards have differing performance too - thus is the fun when it comes to selecting memory cards. That said brand names like Sandisk, Toshiba, Lexar, Samsung are usually more than fine.

And yeah, a class 10 doing 10mb/s is easily meeting the class requirement. What you want is at least a U1 UHS card, which writes usually higher than 20mb/s (though U1 class speed reqs is actually still just 10mb/s write as well). Though I've seen U1 cards with 9mb/s write speeds before.

U3 UHS is even better, as it will come with 30mb/s min just to get the U3 rating.

The easiest way is to get cards which *actually* advertise their write speeds on the packaging, like Sandisk and Toshiba - which does so for both their microSD and SD lines.

TBH, anything over 60mb/s write is actually quite overkill for our cameras, not sure but IINM they can't fully utilise 90mb/s write anyway. 48mb/s is usually good enough though.

Anything lower though, would be quite noticeable when it comes to writing from the buffer, especially on the A6k with its extremely fast burst rate.

Guys, can check with you..

If I have nissin i40 & hvl-f43m, can i do the hss (High-speed sync) on A7?

or can this be done with the following combo..

a) hvl-f20m(attached on A7) & hvl-f43m (remote stand)
b) hvl-f43m(attached on A7) & hvl-f20m (remote stand)
c) hvl-f43m(attached on A7) & nissin i40 (remote stand)
d) nissin i40(attached on A7) & hvl-f43m (remote stand)

Just came back from Melbourne!

But man the city is like hipster central!

Oh okay! A shot from me when I was at Melbourne!



Spoilered because it was taken with my Canon EOS 60D a while back

i own a58 and no regret own it, its the technique creativeness brought picture to life even ur using compact

what about a7ii that using improved AF logarithm from a6000? still slow?
