HOT Texas Loc: From the Heart of Texas
 
It didn't come till around 4:30 pm, so by the time I charge the batteries and played with it a little it was dark.

But, But, But I'm now am the proud owner of a brand new Sony a7r II :P I don't do drugs, But I'm higher than a kite, might have to take some blood pressure medicine to keep my blood pressure down some :lol:

The first this I notice that it not as easy to shoot as the A6000, they have moved some of the controls and is a little heaver and a little taller.

The next thing I notice is the electric view finder, OMG it is freaking Awesome.

One of the first things that got me excited was I can switch from full frame to crop factor and shoot my Sigma 19, 30 and 60mm lenses with no problems at all, I really don't know why Sony did this, but thank you Sony.

I will try to give you a better report and review later on when I get to know it better.

I headed out to a old windmill this morning Not far from where I live to give it a test run, shot in RAW + JPG, I don't much like the way Lightroom handled the RAW file, but photoshop did just fine with it, I was able to do a better job in Photoshop with the RAW file. The JPG picture out of the camera is just super, can hardly tell any difference between the two after processing the RAW file.

So here is a test shot or two from this morning.

Happy for you, have fun. That likely is a camera I might like too. :-)

I agree, they've never brought me anything I didn't like...it's as though they can read my mind.

Good luck Johnny with your new toy...That's one nice camera.

You'll have a great time with that piece of kit, Johnny! We'll expect to see great things (okay, greater things, lol)...
