K-H I'd forgotten you are also to get the 400/2.8.
I'll just have to be envious of youth and strength.

I think if Sony continue their current GM trend then the lens will at least match the Nikon E FL price or go a bit beyond it. That doesn't bode well for my aspirations to own this lens as the Nikon FL is $14,600 CDN. I'll have to sell my Canon 600II and I don't think I'm ready to do that yet.

I'm not a birder Geoff but is that an American Goldfinch?
If so they are a rare and welcomed visitor to my neck of the woods---only bierd that
brings any type of yellow to us here.

They are a treat.....and like most finches here they are a bit skittish.

Hey, sold my a6500 in anticipation of the replacment...my luck I'll be waiting a year, but last four trips I never used it. Should have at Conowingo but never thought to.

This is the western (U.S) version

Oops, sorry, but this was not taken with a A9. Just to show a Western version of the same bird.

Can't be pretty if not via the a9.

I don't get many ducks. Is this a Shoveler? Imaged at St. Marks NWR.

And not that you all would notice, but if it weren't for the 2.0TC I really wouldn't have many shots with
the 100-400.

^love the light.
Glad I've got my first (AND only) Shoveler.
Got my first Bittern at Merritt. Would post but not with a Sony

Forgot to mention how fast civilization has encroached on Viera. We've watch the
yearly advance and the houses are now almost on top of it. A local said the bobcats
left last year. I think the bierds will keep coming but I'd be the otters are next to leave

Beautiful work as always Geoff.
I was farting and scratching waiting out a hawk and out of boredom this shot.
20fps almost gave me enough to stack a few shots in Zerene but the wings turned
out a bit goofy-

Still loving the eye AF of my a9 and coupled with the Canon 70-200 2.8 IS II and the metabones 5 is proving to be incredibly sharp and accurate.

Robert, you're going to make Birdied, Efilmuser and others very envious of your close-up shots.

Tim, I'm going to keep my very torn jeans despite my wife's urging to get rid of it. Who knows, young people are paying premium for those things now as they appear to be fashionable.
