This thread excites me in the same way a car crash does on the motorway. I can’t help but look. Fair play, please keep the updates coming 😂

Looks to be that way!

Yeah, had to double take. Incredible things. Saw a 911 S/T about an hour before too!

Colour is questionable, but good spot out in the wild today.

It’s a good job this is pretty as the actual racing is dogshit

You’ll need someone who can use Illustrator for Vector mate, and that’s out of my skillset. Here’s the vector for the logo though: https://freebiesupply.com/logos/kaizer-chiefs-amakhosi-logo/

@Daz... turned up last week, it’s really quite impressive. Went for the iii x as I prefer 40mm over 28mm. Dynamic range isn’t far off the Sony, it recovers shadows well and rolls off highlights nicely. Image quality is really good, lens is pin sharp. AF isn’t anywhere near Sony, but not much...

Exactly why I’ve bought it Daz, I hate phone photos so wanted something to take about with me daily. My A7C is small but not small enough. I can see this making me sell the A7C for an A7IV. Ricoh for EDC and then the Sony for more dedicated stuff.

Oh, I bought a new lens the other day. I don’t really ever shoot wide, but bought this for the 1% time I need to. Look at how small it is 😂 28mm fixed f/4.5. Paid about £50 second hand. AF is quick and it’s sharp enough. I also bought it as I’ve been debating a Ricoh GR for ages. They do...

Oh, and a tip re: f stops if you go for a fast prime. Most beginners will drop it to as low as possible in all scenarios. Most lenses are sharpest at about f8. Even on my 1.8 lenses, when travelling I tend to live between f/5.6 - f/8 these days, so long as the light is good, unless I’m trying...

re: viewfinder on Sony’s. Use the little black wheel next to it, it will calibrate it to you.

Only you can answer that mate. Some people (like me) love fixed focal lengths (I shoot 90% 35mm, and have an 85mm for some car stuff and portraits). Others like zooms. Primes tend to have slightly higher image quality, and are faster (lower aperture = better low light performance/greater...
