Adorama and others have the Sony version for pre-order.. You can't, however, have their interesting USB docking system for A-mount...

Nice B&W shots Doc, Sury and Richard! I have to admit to living vicariously through Doc's photos of late!
Here are a couple from New Orleans. Dannelle and I went there for a quick getaway not too long ago.

Heh heh heh.. Love it Valery!

I like the 1.8 max aperture for low light... I may pull the trigger for use for the night time band performances, though the 2X zoom is a bit short. I suppose to make more range would make it a huge, expensive lens. Any idea on release date?

Great Heron DA!
Here are some seagulls from our Summer trip to Galveston. There were some kids feeding them as I snapped away.. Suddenly they made this formation, and I got one good one in.

Lovely shot Valery! I was lucky that some nearby farmers planted sunflowers this spring, and I was able to get a few shots in.

Thanks guys. I did have a great day, Dannelle treated us to a fine dinner at our favorite restaurant here in McKinney... As far as gifts, I am considering pulling the trigger on the Sigma 18-35 f 1.8...

Indeed! Kevin was a wonderful guide the days we were together. Dannelle and I can't wait to go there together! Those Sony weather seals did get quite a workout!

A lot of great ferry shots here. Not a typical subject for me, living 4 hours from the coast myself, but Seattle did present opportunities. This is the Seattle-Bainbridge ferry returning to Seattle.
Enjoy

Heh heh heh... "Come to Seattle!" he said... "I know a great place to stay!" he said.... Hmmmph! Actually it was a very fun trip... Though he did pull a bait and switch with the weather...

Nice B/W shots by all. Great shot of the Shard in London caporip. That sherpard seems completely unfazed by your presence Doc.. You really have him in his element.
Here is one from Ian and my trip to Seattle.

I'm afraid I'm a bit of a PCA prodigal son...

Hi all! Great portraits all. Aurabh, I like yours especially.. Here is one of Ian with the a700, from our recent trip to Seattle... With many thanks to KB for many excursion ideas, and great company.

While in Seattle, Ian and I came across a protest against police brutality. It was a pleasant surprise, for us anyway, and we spotted two other Alphas in the crowd. All told, there were 4 Alphas in an area of less than one square block. (My a77, Ian's a700, the other a77, and a65) That has to be a r...

Thanks everybody! It was a wonderful trip, and I am lucky to have a woman that tolerates my photo obsession as much as Dannelle does. Kevin- I bet yours did cost a bit more, but man... What an adventure. Dannelle and I need to make a trip up there! Your photos from your new home are wonderful!!
