Nice, maybe you should post these in that TooManyShots' thread where he doesn't think any mirrorless can shoot cycling races

But on second thought, don't bother as the guy won't listen to reason and seems to be trolling. The thread is over in the General Gear Talk section if you care to read (don't say I didn't warn you though ) https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1544592


Hahahaha... not a discussion that’s worth anyone’s time. I will take a peek at it though *must resist stirring the pot*

Geoff I'm still traveling with rare WiFi connections but am curious to ask you after seeing your stellar Mountain Bluebird shots, if the house was on fire and you could grab only one camera body would it be the 1DXii,the big Nikon (can't remember it's name)or the a9? You're the only with all three I know of.
I've retired the a9 for the next two weeks, will be landscaping with the a7riii in Nova Scotia, don't think or know any BIF'ing there..

Not my usual subject, but I went with a buddy to Sonoma Raceway today to watch the historic cars practice session. My very first car, way back in 83, was a 1970 Cougar (this looks like a 67or 68). An aside, both the A9 and RX10 are a dream to pan with. 1/200@ f9, ISO100

I actually don't own the top Nikon D5 (which would be the closest competitor for the 1DX2 and A9). But I have a good feel as to how it would be as the D500 and D850 that I do own have very similar AF systems and the D5 sensor is supposed to be even better than the 1DX2 and A9 at the high ISO for DR and noise.

So if I could take one of the three SYSTEMS which meant taking all the lenses, I would take the Canon because my lenses are worth so much!! But if it wasn't based on the cost of what I own then I think I would take the Nikon kit at this time, followed by the Sony and then the Canon. If Sony had more lenses and a high MP body (either cropper or FF) that had the features of the A9 and ergonomics of the A9 then I'd take the Sony. So in a few more years I'm sure my answer will be Sony.

A9R (50MP, blackout free, e-shutter and 15FPS) with a Sony native 500 f/4 FE lens and I'm all set to leave the DSLRs to burn

Most of my images are on Flickr where they look better. https://www.flickr.com/photos/100907765@N08/
I don't use FB or IG at this time for my images...maybe someday

Yes, lots of flies or mosquitos around. That is a yellow-bellied marmot.

A Canada Goose that gave me a nice flap as I paddled by on the kayak. Then some noisy Robins alerted me to this GHO which was super camouflaged but difficult to get a good photo.

Have had an A9 for a week or so - and know it will take months to get settings right and have buttons be second nature (as my trusty 5diii has become). But have been so impressed by the autofocus (including eye-AF) that it almost seems like magic in comparison. Here's a few shots from a couple of days ago at a local park that is popular with photographers... interesting is the one shot of the photographer (it was his daughter in the white dress) where eye-AF tracked him to the edge of the frame - very impressive.

enjoy!

If even Sigma or Tamron brought native FE 150-600 to Sony I would swap my 1DX for A9, but seeing everybody having to resort to 100-400 + TC's still and only a 400 f/2.8 on the close horizon, is frustrating. I wonder if Sigma will port the 500 f/4 to FE mount in the same lazy way they did their Art lenses or if they'll do it from scratch. Tamron SP 500 f/4 VC would be nice and they tend to build lighter and better built lenses than Sigma, not that the Sigma 500 f/4 isn't well built.
