The sig is FREAKING INSANE!

Unfortunately, I forgot to save the full sized version of the leg band to show what my sig looked like on it. By the time I shrunk down the copy for the hummer's leg, it was too small to read.

Oh well, it's the thought that counts in this case.

fave fireworks from yesterday.

Flagler Museum
Canon 24-70II

Change of opion-Tamron AF FE 28-75mm, this after firmware update.
AF is snappy on the Riii (can't check the a9, it's en route back from Precision).
Firmware update went smoothly.
I switched back to Balanced Emphasis.

Now something even neater. I can put the non-gripped Riii + 70-300G with the Tam 28-75mm under it
all in a Peak Design 5L sling bag.

For those not wanting to shell GM prices for this focal range I now think this is a great option.

Albert Dros had a nice blog post about the Tamron zoom. He recommends adding one to the kit for landscape shooters. I'm considering getting one or the FE 24-105.

I've been reading a few FE24-105 threads recently and I have read a bit of disappointment of it...... I think I'd prefer to buy it new (preferably local shop) if I did....!

Nope I wouldn't. Remember I'd add the Tam but not loose those primes!

Experimenting with the Peak Designs 5L sling bag.
I can squeeze but barely the A7Riii+70-300G in it.
But without grip I can put the A7Riii+70-300G in it WITH
the Tam 28-75 AND AND AND I think when it gets here I can
put the Samyang 24/2.8 in there as well.
Talk about a concise kit

So today's bierd shot via the 70-300G, enjoying the huge cropability of
the Riii.

Sell CV10 $800 FE28 $300 FE 55 $500 FE90 600 = $2200

Buy 12-24 $1600 and 28-75 $800 = $2400

$200 bucks and I end up with a much simpler

A9 A7r2
FE 12-24 / Loxia 21 / Tam 28-75 / 100-400GM

I still have the legacy macro lens (Viv series 1 2.5) which is stellar and the Canon FD 55 1.4 which is fun. And I am all auto focus except for the Lox which I can slam to the right and nail anything 5' out and beyond.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Beautiful colors and a classic Florida building.

Taking a break from Iceland pics. This is from my backyard. This little guy pretty much lives here and is around every day, all day.

I have no CV lenses so can't quite grip that in my mind in how it fits in but I do understand the FE 12-24. Now if you had or would consider the FE 24-105 (yes to me even more amazing for IQ/quality than even the 12-24) I could see a really concise kit. You already have the 100-400; think 12-24, 24-105, 100-400 and everything is covered! Well except macro

Now seen enough the Laowa 10-18 will be here. I was thinking December for Fred says maybe September, me reading between the lines.....now that will complicate things a lot!
