Sony Lounge Thread MKIII (All Sony cameras welcome)

In anticipation of the a7s 3,
Ill be putting my gh5 + lens and speedbooster for sale soon.
My assumption is soon after its announcement the gh5 used market will be over loaded and i will then struggle to sell it.
I cant imagine sony not making the upgrades i want , mainly the joystick , battery , AF and 4k60.
The one they might skip on is 4k60 internally. Just becasue of heat issues, im certain they'll do external.
And the af.. i wonder , but i cant imagine them not atleast matching the 7r3 if not the a73

I always wanted to dress Charlotte up as Boo

Too many awesome shots! Couple of favorites---where your daughter is feeding cake to your son! And the fire breathing dragon
actually shocked me! The candle-bag scene with you and the Mrs. very very nice. Wonderful memories captured AND killer
photography.

Thank you guys! Appreciate you guys taking the time to browse yet another Disney album lol

How many lenses did you end up taking? which ones?

I'm heading there in 2mths.

We go frequently and I go pretty nuts with gear when we go.

That particular trip I had the Loxia 21, FE35 1.4, and got the 100-400 12-24 on loan from sony professional services

Stereotypical, but very necessary birthday shot:

Sometimes I just feel like going for a drive....

Been 3 times now. Just 4 day visits. I think I have about two more trips left in me. Then won't go back again until I take grandkids. Love that place for kids reactions.

I've always loved the bokeh on that lens but the colors always seem a hair washed and not punchy. Is this your editing doing that? Perhaps it's just about 1/3 stop overexposed for my preference. You make me really want that lens and sell the art... just trying to see if your editing style on it does it type thing.

A little of both. My documentary style photos have the contrast pulled back a touch.

But yes the 85 GM has very muted colors...especially compared to the Sigma. I have the Sigma 135 and the 85 GM and Sigma render very differently

Thanks pre! I'm sure my wife will end up at least putting this in a scrap book.

I can’t see them changing the body design much, if any, until the Gen 4 cameras roll around. Even then all I’d really ask for is a slightly more ergonomic grip that’s pushed away from the lens mount a few more mm as it gets kind of tight in there sometimes... a grip a bit more in the direction of the new Z6/7. Maybe tweak that crazy menu system some more too.

I’m not in the market for the S3 (maybe an A9 after doing some remodeling projects around the house), but I’m excited to see how Sony pushes the tech barrier once again.

My camera budget is blown for a couple of months now anyways... just picked up the 85GM and the 1.4x for my 70-200 GM.

I finally went for the first time last year, 5 day trip with my two girls. Our days were pretty packed with character meets and activities, so not a whole lot of time for creative photography shots. I got some good ones, but I’d love to go back during a less busy season and have some time to just walk around and shoot, now that I know my way around a bit. We were there during fall break/Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween Party, and it was pretty busy (typical for school holidays). It’s an amazing place for photography for certain.
