Do you use a handstrap with your a900? If you don't, you may find that it improves the ergonomics, particularly with regard to one handed operation of the top panel buttons.
Glad you mentioned that. After a day of shooting putting a hand strap on the A900 was high on my list for next time. I've got pretty large hands but the handgrip on the A900 was a bit big for me. A handstrap would have been a big help.

I don't... not a fan of straps in general -- even the traditional camera neck strap, which, admittedly, people find a little weird. Is there one that you would recommend? I'll look it up.

Well you know what they say about guys with big hands, right?

I added some shots with the 50 f2.8 Macro, also a reasonably nice lens, HERE
Wondering why you decided to use such a high ISO for the leaf and pond pics when there was so much light available? The shutter speed was into the "thousands".
Trying to kill two birds with one stone: I've just been playing with in-camera jpgs and some Photoshop conversions. I read Sony's own software did much better conversions so I wanted some high ISO shots to compare. And had about 5 minutes to grab a few shots outside the office before I headed home.
