New Sony a6500 Adds Touch Screen/Pad & IBIS, But Will it Overheat?
I shouldn’t be surprised to hear a new a6500 model mirrorless camera was released but this camera isn’t a replacement to the a6300. Sony is adding another model to the Alpha a6 lineup. The a6500 has a 5-Axis SteadyShot INSIDE Stabilization system and a new enhanced front-end LSI processor that works together with the BIONZ […]
I Want the NEW Sony a99 II Menu on my a7rii PLEASE!
With so many camera releases and updates in the last couple of weeks one that I wish and hope to see in a firmware update is the new menu system on the Sony a99 II camera. Sony finally addressed the worst menu system I have ever used and is making it more user friendly. What […]

Sony introduces 18-110mm Super 35mm / APS-C lens with power zoom capability
Sony introduces a new high performance 18-110mm Super 35mm / APS-C cinema lens for the s35 or APS-C format that’s designed to work best with s35 cameras like the FS7 and FS5 and hybrids swell like the a6300 since but, is it worth the hefty price tag of $3,500? I’m not sure but it does look […]
Rumored Sony 18-110mm f/4.0 G PZ APS-C E-Mount Lens Could Be a Winner for FS5 & FS7
Today on Sony Alpha Rumors this little beauty showed up. The rumored Sony 18-110mm f/4.0 G PZ APS-C E-mount lens. I like the idea a lot. Much better fit for the FS7 and FS5 that are S35 as well as the ar7ii that shoots in 4K in s35 mode. I really like the idea of a […]
New Affordable Sony Full Frame FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro Lens
You macro lovers now have another option from Sony. The FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro. I love the Sony 90mm Macro. It’s one of my favorite lenses since at 90mm it doubles as my 85mm but at $1100 it’s expensive. The new 50mm FE f2.8 is priced at $498. Much more affordable. If you like shooting bugs […]
The Canon 5D MKIV Isn’t a Video Camera. Surprise! Or maybe not
For a while know I’ve been having discussions with my fellow camera geeks and DP’s about the new Canon 5D MKIV and the first thing I say is “it’s not a video camera. It’s a pro DSLR that shoots video”. That’s it. Canon doesn’t want it to be like a Sony A7s ii or A7r […]

The new Sony a7r II 3.30 firmware looks to be addressing temperature issues again by “optimizing temperature control, effect is different according to temperature” Man Sony! These descriptions leave you scratching your head. I haven’t had any overheating issues in stills mode yet. Lets just say it ain’t no a6300! That camera drove me crazy! […]
Sony a6300 1.10 Update Fixes Overheating in Stills Mode, but what about Video?
I had a feeling Sony would address the overheating issue with the a6300 and today looks to be the day. Firmware 1.10 is now available to download and install HERE. Unfortunately I don’t have my copy anymore. I just couldn’t use the camera reliably for my type of work without having it overheat in UHD […]
