A couple of shots from Piha Beach. 30 second exposure with some awesome cloud formation and then a little later from closer to Lion rock as the colour exploded

Nice colour! It doesn't feel like I've caught any colour for ages now!!

Did catch Orion a few times though But the images are still on the camera!

Cheers Lee.
Get those shots off the camera for us to see

Thank you, the clouds were awesome

Been looking at the pre review for the 20-70 f4 - it looks really really good. Im not in a position to pick up a new lens and I really need to wait for the 16-35GM V2 to come out. If that GM comes out I am probably going to move out the 14/35/85 out of my bag and just go with the 16-35 70-200 200-600 set up with my manual CVs still there for fun.

But for today......grrrr would like to try that 20-70....... I haven't had gear salvation for a while but I feel it coming on.

Going to try and get to the Grand Canyon this week with all the snow they have I figure I should get some shots of that.

First real wind power.

Haven't been as active on here sorry (been using Reddit a lot more) but still loving the A7IV!

The New Day (from WWE) came to Sydney today so I managed to get a few shots in at the event

From the hike out to the barns, this was actually on the hike back.

The 20-70 looks interesting. What do you not like about the 16-35GM that makes you want a V2? I love mine

Anyone interested in a mint condition Contax zeiss 35-70? If so let me know. I want to sell it to part fund the 35-150

nit picky...... but sun stars off it are not near as nice as the 14 or 35 I really thought for landscape I would have one on the A1 and one on the R4 but more and more that 70-200 stays on the A1 even for landscape so now I am just hoping version 2 encapsulates some of the better sun stars from the newer lenses. I am chasing a ghost though..... the only true sunstars I like come from CV lenses.

The only thing I don't like about the 16-35 GM, is that it doesn't focus as well or sometimes at all in low light...the Batis 18 was an absolute monster in that category...but outside of that, I really like the 16-35...

The 35-150 is such an interesting lens. I hope to try and use it in good light this spring for school sports, I have only had a chance to use it indoors where ISO has to be high...it does tend to miss a little more than the 70-200 for sports, but it is so versatile. I won't use it for landscape, the lack of a tripod ring combined with how heavy it is, I don't want to mount it on the body and have it on a tripod.


Shooting tonight at the school...was getting grief from a local pro that was there watching and not shooting...he was a Canon guy and was just a bit annoying with his comments...every old school pro thinks BBF is so critical...and then I go find his website...first image that comes up is about as soft as butter that has been sitting out in the Georgia sun...and then they all are....so I won't worry about his commentary!

hmmm -4 degrees F at Grand Canyon...... sure why not head out there to shoot the snow
