This is part of a long series of posts about the Sony a6300. The series starts here. I like the Sony a 6300 a lot. It has an excellent two-speed sensor, a beefed-up construction that’s reminiscent of the a7RII and a7II, really accurate and Johnny-on-the-spot autofocus, a manual EVF/LCD switching mode that takes the cursing… [Read More]

My least-favorite gear
A few days ago, I posted a paean to some of the best photographic gear that I used in 2015. This is the flip side – the gear that drove me up the wall in 2015. Firewire. It’s obsolete. It’s finicky. It’s not supported directly on new computers. But, if you’ve got a Hassy H-series… [Read More]
a7II self-heating for long exposures
In this post, we saw a pronounced self heating effect in the dark noise of successive 30-second exposures with the Sony a7RII. I repeated the test with the predecessor camera, the a7R, and found far less effect. A reader postulated that the difference might be lower thermal conductivity between the sensor and the camera chassis… [Read More]
Nikon D810 summary
I’m about done with my Nikon D810 testing. I may do one or two little things, but it’s time for some conclusions. From a noise perspective, the sensor in the D810 is a modest step up from the D800E’s if you operate at base ISO. There are some games being played at the higher ISOs that show… [Read More]
Sony a7S testing
A Sony alpha 7S arrived yesterday for testing. Same origami box as the other alpha 7 cameras. Same lightweight documentation. Two nice differences: the a7S ships with two batteries and a battery charger. I guess they figure videographers will be going through batteries at a good clip. In one sense, the arrival of the camera… [Read More]
