Hi my name is Lloyd and I spend my days in Scottsdale Arizona after relocating here from NJ about a dozen years ago. I've been shooting pictures for many years (mostly snapshots) and recently jumped into the fullframe world sony a99. Used to have minolta maxxum film camera and then an a100. ... and can still use my maxxum lenses. I am working on becoming a better photographer and read this forum every morning before I start my day!

I love the camera. It takes extraordinary photos. I've been shooting in JPG and very pleased. I used to only shoot raw with my older a100. Starting to shoot raw & jpg now.. I also have the 2470 zeiss 2.8 zoom and it is awesome too. Only issue is the camera and lens are both pretty have to lug around. I also have some old minolta maxxum lens a 50 mm 1.7 a 28-135 and a 75-300 all work great on the a99. Oh and I really like the electronic viewfinder.... How are you liking yours?

I love the Alpha 99 too!!. I also have the NEX 6, which is a compact crop sensor camera, which is also fantastic. For the Alpha, I have the SONY 28-75mm and the SONY G 70-300mm. Most of my photos are with the NEX, since I just recently bought the Alpha 99. I also love the EVF.
