Turn 'eye start' off, then the EVF will stay on all the time.


That is good to know. Did not know that could be done. Thank you. I will try that tomorrow. As long as the skies are clear.

You won't get an argument from me, but maybe not snob appeal, I don't think either of them has more prestige than the other, maybe more like justifying their own decision to buy whatever brand they have.


I agree in that I believe there are good cameras in most brands. At the end of the day it is the eye and perception of what is being seen by the photographer and how that visual information is presented 😍

I agree with Neubee. Why not stick with the Sony. I purchased a used A850 from B&H because I wanted an FX sensor. Along with that body I purchased a Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 & 70-200 f/2.8. I doubt very seriously if you put the same photograph done with a Canon, Nikon, & Sony, anybody could tell the difference. A lot of the Canon, Nikon bit is snob appeal. I expect to catch a lot of flack over that last statement.


I have not gotten used to the EVF view finder over the OVF. It turns off when your not looking through it and comes back on when you look through it again. The camera hesitates momentarily when first turned on. And in the end this may not really matter. Also the translucent mirror. Suppose a matter of getting used to it after using Nikon for 5 years.

Nana, welcome to the Hog.
If you just let your head explode, then all the pressure will be gone, and you will be able to think clearly again!! :lol:
Actually, if you had a Canon, you wouldn't even be going through all of this misery!!!! ;-)

That is actually true. Being one who loves to write as well I can actually picture that. 😄 Ye Old Canon vs Nikon Debate.
For arguments sake what in Canon is comparable to the cameras I am referencing 😳

I had a Nikon d300s. Was stolen.
Now have a Sony a77. Have a 90mm/2.8 DI Tamron, 70-200mm/2.8 DI Tamron & 16-50mm/2.8 SSM sony lens.
Wanted to get another Nikon and was trying to wait for D300s upgrade which is rumored may be D9300. But now I don't know whether to do that or not. The Nikon Rep. Told our local camera store that they have announced all the new cameras that will be coming out for 2014. So now I'm in a quandary. Have talked to my local camera store about the D7100 & the D610. I feel like my head is going to explode. Can anyone help this rattled person.

Your pugs are so cute. If you haven't you need to join FB site The Brotherhood of the Pugs. I also take pictures of grandchildren and my pug.
I had a D300s that was stolen and have been trying to decide this week whether to get the 7100 or wait to see if the D9300 really appears.

I currently have a Sony a77. I have two lens: 16-50/2.8 & 90mm/2.8. I would like to get a lens with a longer range up to at least 200. I want it to be a good lens. I would appreciate any suggestions of lens used for this type camera. Only familiar with Nikon. Thank you all in advance for suggestions. Hope everyone has a great weekend. Looks like rain for us.

Thank you for your input. I am finding that researching cameras and trying to make an informed decision - reminds me much of the medical field I just left and researching concerns about medicine.

It was unfortunately stolen. So thought since I have to get a new camera I would get an updates model.

I am our family's designated historian. I now finally have the time to pursue my love for photography. I would like recommendations , please of a good camera to purchase. Had Nikon D300s in the past, currently have Sony a77. I take a lot of pictures of family. Love close up showing expressions. Love nature, clouds and old buildings. Don't feel I have what I need to so what I want. Have been researching and my head is spinning, literally.
This may sound crazy, but I need my "forever camera" one I can keep forever and buy good lens to do what I need. I would like to get at least semi-pro or above. Glad to be a part of this forum. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Hope you all are having a wonderful day. Jody C. Or known to my grand-children as Nanaclz !
