I own a Sony a1 and a9, for my long lenses like the 200-600 I mount the vertical grip that helps to balance out the outfit. I also hand hold the lens just behind the lens hood, this too helps stabilize the lens.
You really should be able to hand hold the 105 macro without an issue, it is not heavy or big for a macro. I would not put a tripod foot on the macro, too cumbersome. I reverse the tripod foot on the 200-600 so it is easier to handle hand held.
I am 76 years young and have no issues hand holding my equipment, I also own the Sony 600 f4 and hand hold that without issue.
I find a tripod and monopod slow me down in wildlife photography. Below is an image taken of three Cattle Egret chicks and mom, hand held, at a 100 yards, with the 600mm f4.
I find my minimum shutter speed to be greater than 1/2500 sec. that way it helps hand holding and for birds in flight.
Good luck and keep on shooting until the end.

Those are not solar flares. They are solar promenices. A completely different thing.


Thanks. I will try to remember that! (after I look it up)

Say What!!!! My view is that only the lower half with the animal perched in the tree looking down in puzzlement is the story. Who cares about the height of the trees??? CROP TO THE STORY.


In my view, the story follows her eyes. That is why the crop is so high.

I just sold a lot of stuff to Adorama. They sent me a check 2nd day air! They seem to be making a big push in that area, and the people were really nice to work with.

This one is slightly more than your budget, but in my opinion it is the best point and shoot on the market.
Sony HX99.

I think he hit the best one right on the nose!
This will suit your daughter's needs quite well and does so much more than her cell phone.

A few days ago I updated my Sony 100-400 GM lens from version 1 to 6. I can't tell if it performs any different, and it's certainly not worse, but the programable buttons don't function and are no longer shown in the menu.

I don't normally use them so they won't be missed, but I am curious, has anyone else experienced this bug.


Sounds like there is a problem somewhere that you have not discovered yet. You may want to see a Sony rep somewhere to get the update fixed.

I want to move up from my Nikon d850 to mirrowless camera . I video ballroom dancers and still shot them witch camera is better ? Also, looks like the Sony 2470 2.8 GM is a lot sharper then Nikon 24702.8 S lens is according to dxo mark . What do you say ? ThankYou !


Nikon fans will say Nikon and Sony fans will say Sony. I am a Sony fan, but I realize that I am biased. You have to hold each camera in your hand and play with it a little bit. Then read up what the experts say, and see if it applies to the work you are doing. The only thing I can add is that Sony has a great big leap in cinematic enterprise, and also Zeiss just introduced a new line of lenses made for Sony's E mount that are specifically for cinematography.
