eBay has millions of potential buyers. If you don't over-price, then it will definitely sell. eBay will keep 10% of your gross. PayPal will keep 3%. eBay is good for finding the current selling price for used equipment.

Craigslist is hit or miss since you have a much smaller pool of buyers. No fees. But you have to deal with buyers directly.

You can also list it for sale here at UHH:

Amazon can be a good place to buy/sell used equipment also.

I thought that too. But this an old thread and Searcher's comment is from 2015. He's still MIA.

I've upgraded the A6000 twice. No problems, just follow the instructions. You should print out the instructions before you start.

> Do you have to connect your camera to computer via USB cable?
USB cable is the method I used for A6000. Some cameras have you copy the new software to an SD card. I'm not sure if that is an option for A6000.

There is a Color Range option under the Select menu at the top of the screen.

Right after getting my A6000, I purchased Gary Friedman's book "The Complete Guide to Sony's Alpha 6000 Digital Camera." He gives his personal settings in Chapter 2.

The attached pdf document should get you started. But you should get Friedman's book if you want to take full advantage of your camera.

ICE is great if you are working with JPG files. I do not believe it will work with TIFF or any form of RAW.


Not true. ICE supports most raw files. You can't save the result as "raw" but you can save as tiff.

Apple has a camera connection kit which will allow you to read the camera's SD card directly. I use it with an iPad3.

In 1992, my boss sent me to a training class for ISO9000 quality standards. The trainers all pronounced it as Eye-Ess-Oh-9000. But as the standards were rolled out across the company, the pronounciation became EYE-so-9000. Probably not "correct", but I got over it. I now say EYE-so for film speed.

If you can boot from your original Windows CD or a recovery disk, then you might gain access to the hard drive (if it is still good). In that case, if you've lived a good life, you have a chance of making the hard drive bootable again. The other option is to remove the drive and put it in an external USB enclosure.

Maybe Digital Outlets' BBB rating of F is a factor?

Depending on where you live, you might be able to photograph the ISS as it transits the sun or moon. Solar transits are quite common but will require the proper solar filter. Just Google "ISS solar transit".

Nobody should be pressured into upgrading to Windows 10. If Win7 is working for you, stay with it. That's what most of the world's users are doing. Just get Win10 with your next computer in a few years. Check out current operating system usage statistics. At close to 50%, Win7 will be around for a while. (from http://www.netmarketshare.com/)

Not true. You can download upgrades from the Nikon web site without even owning the camera! So if you can do the firmware upgrade yourself, there is no problem with gray market.

For the "G" lenses without an aperture ring, you'll need an adapter which has an adjustable aperture feature. I would use an adapter which is simply an inexpensive mechanical connection between the lens and the camera - no glass - so there is NO degradation of the image. I have a Sony A6000 and several adapters for Minolta and Nikon lenses. For Nikon G, I use "Fotasy NANG Nikon G-type DX AFS Lens to Sony E-Mount NEX Camera Adapter" from Amazon for $18.59. Focus and exposure will be manual. For exposure, you can use aperture priority mode, turn the aperture ring on the adapter, and let the camera choose shutter speed, or full manual exposure. Manual focus is easy when you use focus peaking.
