Greg,
Thanks a lot for thinking aside with me.../Aart

Further to my previous comment. The focusing should cause the temporary exit. Either by defect Distance-chip or by overtasking of the focusing circuitry. This afternoon I started trials and came to a prelim9inary conclusion: After the blow-out on infinity (towards the clouds) I tried to recover. But...

[quote="Aart Roest"][quote="Greg Beetham"][quote="Aart Roest"][/quote] Greg, Focusing on flying aircrqaft goes easy this way. The camera spots them without any problem... Further about your reply: You convinced me there is nothing wrong with the exposure system. Also yo...

[quote="Greg Beetham"][quote="Aart Roest"][/quote] I don’t own an SSM lens myself so I don’t have any firsthand experience with one, but looking at the user guide it says that DMF is not available with AF-C so I would assume turning the focus collar while that mode is engaged wou...

[quote="classiccameras"]I'm not an expert, but its possible the sensor just got over saturated/over loaded, [burn out] and the whole system could not cope , gave up, and went into neutral. Pete, Thank you for your view. It really could be an over-reading in the exposure metering circuit, w...

Last Friday I went to the 100 Year Memorial Air Show with the Royal Netherlands Air Force. I took my Alpha A700 with Sony 4,5-5,6/70-300 G SSM lens with me and put the exposure program on A(perture) and Spot with EV+1. Focusing on Continuous and wide. But then I forget which piece of the lens is the...

I read it gladly. Interesting results. Specially for the comparisons made. I can remain not yet stepping up to A99 and remainig with my elderly camera. Yet reading the comparison between the A77 and the A99, I wondered at which bitdepth the A700 and A900 work. Who could tell me ? The effects are the...

David,
Thank you very much for your clarification. I noticed, while upgrading the firmware, that there was no problem at all. Only the languages did not come up. It is a pity, but I will do with the English language... Being happy with an A900.

My former A900 had Dutch language on the "Menu". My new one had not. It has English (with which I am by the way already happy enough), Chinese, Japanese and South-Korean. But the European languages are missing, like Italian and German and for me most important Dutch. I wonder whether there...

This month (April 2012) I paid a visit to the phenomenal flowershow. In total I found 7 Alpha users, three of which are enclosed...

My A900 was lifted. What would you advise me ? I do like the DSLR sytem. So far I am not pleased by SLT.

Well, I'm trying to find a better way. So far I have only dared following the SONY advice of using only a blower. The one I use has a 1mm opening and no brush. Using this blower, it removes the dust from the center of the sensor quite well, but the dust particles on the borders and in the corners se...

This kind man also had shoes on. He also carried the more elaborated guide on the house in his left hand. Believe it or not, he was accompanied by his wife as well. But I only met him a couple of minutes first and a few seconds in the afternoon on our ways back. I imagine all of you would have been ...

Met this nice fellow with E-mailadress with AOL, letting me take his picture after telling him about this topic. Aart

The latest great Photoclubalpha magazine required the above specification, when pictures are to be accepted in the contest. I am not (yet) familiair with this profile. In fact I do not even know where to start. Who can help ? A complete explanation would be welcome.
Thanks for everything posted...!
