A few from a local horse show taken with the A1 and 100-400 lens. I have shot many thousands over about a 10 year period professionally with Nikon (no longer doing professional work). The new technology makes things much easier.
Marry a younger woman who still works and enjoy their insurance policy to retire early. That was the plan
So each morning Poof drives off and I man a radio staying in contact until she is clear of the gate (about a mile away). Then she's on her own. If trouble before the gate I'm ready to hop in a vehicle with a chainsaw and head her way. Just last month she radio'd in and off I headed to cut a tree out of her way.
But this morning I had not only radio in hand but the Alpha with the FE90Macro

Robert - Just roadtrip up this way. We'll get you the tree swallow, the indigo bunting, blue grosbeak and an assortment of local warblers in less than a few hours

I was lucky as he and his mate made a home in a tree stump right in front where anyone can be just a few feet away. Him and his mate were there posing for all and seemed to have no fear. Was great.
The camera impressed again on Sunday when I photographed this small dance company of about 70 dancers. Nailing eye focus allowed me to do a lot of shooting that I call "One and Done" where the dancer and I both get the pose and shot right on the first try. Sure makes for a more enjoyable shoot. Sure, some of the poses are static and easy, but a few are dynamic jumps that the a7r4, my prior portrait body, would struggle with.
All shot with the 70-200 2.8GM and some Godox AD600 strobes. I used the 24-70 2.8GM for some group shots, but think these are all with the 70-200. Also, sending the raw images wirelessly to the laptop nearby where they were imported in Lightroom automatically with my generic processing recipe certainly helped parents make selections and also increase sales once they could see the images on the big screen (15" laptop).
Guys my apologies on double posting...just noticed. It's a side-effect of the HughesNet lag.
I'll try to keep an eye on it to prevent future occurrences.
Maybe off topic but quite relevant and related for me and others
Anyone here shooting the Sony A1 and the 600 with 1.4
That had used the R5 with 600 III ( all there is at the moment) and a 1.4
Can you describe your differential experience with birds etc
Thank u

We had one show up in some random person's back yard in Buffalo and the birders all invaded them :-) Luckily they were nice people and enjoyed their microcosmic bird fame for a day or two :-)
