View from the front. The central camera is the OM D E-5 I bought from Chuck Norcutt. It is my main camera these days. The A7 seems to be a very capable camera, packed with features. The instruction manual has 94 jam-packed pages. It's going to take me a while to work through it.]]> Brian Swale photo Fri, 07 Jun 2019 01:30:57 -0500 http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=23258 http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=23258
Recently an old friend who has a great photo shop (www.photo.co.nz) posted a couple of pictures on facebook offering 2 cameras at a discount if purchased online on facebook. One was a Sony A7. I was impressed by the specifications especially the number of pixels. It also could accept OM manual lenses, of which I have more then a few. For a full-frame digital camera, it has a small body. Here it is with a Zuiko 100/2 attached and a couple of digital cameras alongside. The 100/2 makes it a heavy combination. I have a lot to learn with this camera, and manual focusing will be a challenge for me, cataracts and all. The first few images have favourably impressed me.]]> Brian Swale photo Fri, 07 Jun 2019 00:39:55 -0500 http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=7781 http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=7781
