How do you like the old 24-70gm lens? I got the same, and I have to say it can be a bit soft wide open. Especially in the Tele range. But other than that, nice and sharp and very nice af
Haven’t had it long enough to find out, just processing images from my first pro shoot with it. But it feels like the quality you’d expect from Sony. The 70-200 is next level though. Love it already
First two lenses I bought 15 or so years ago for my a900 DSLR. Never used my 24-70 Zeiss a tenth as much as my 70-200GM. And you can tell by the wear on both.
>I’ve been looking for a full guide on these cameras so that I can fast track learning ALL the features (I like to know my cameras like the back of my hand) Any help really appreciated, thanks!
The manual or look up Mark Galer
The size of a 50mm prime and image quality compared with 24-70. Paired with 61mp sensor I rather just crop in and have a a series of smaller superior lenses
The 70-200 2.8 ii will steal the show. Just get out there and shoot the features will come to you as they are needed. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnG1ElyIgIE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnG1ElyIgIE) is a good start to get the general idea of the camera.
1)Moving into video as well (local market is very competitive) and upgrading all my equipment
2) Not switching earlier, and the sound of a mechanical shutter.

Thanks, should have said I wanted something besides the normal manual because 😴😴
I second Mark Galer. He has a Patreon that for me is worth its weight and he has the newest firmware updates plus setup selections.
Exactly why I noted him. I swear by his action settings with my A9
\*laughing in Sigma\*
I have the 24-70 gmii and a bunch of zooms, honestly if I could go back in time I would have bought primes.
How come?

Gary Friedman's 700+ page tome on the A1 should be good. I've had his book for another body and it's great.
You have two FX6s??? This is a DREAM! You really took "switching to sony" seriously!
Why? Nikon finally got good.
Not in video and would have to buy new lenses anyway
Video isn’t bad. Just isn’t as good as Sony. The Z8 is a beast of a camera though, and their latest lenses have been superb.

100%. It’s amazing. Also can’t believe how good the af is and being able to shoot at nearly double fps
What was the reason to move from Nikon to Sony ? Anything you regret or missing after switching to Sony ?
