Sony Panoramic Digital Camera

Use this product with my Sony digital camera alfa 5.

Used as a base for digital cameras (Nikon D300 and D700) for studio and landscape work. Very solid + reliable, and easy to adjust. Not particularly small so not well suited to field work requiring a lot of carrying given the overall size / weight, but extremely reliable and does an excellent job providing a firm base for long exposure landscape shots. Also works very well as a base for panoramic shots either alone (using the built in bubble levels) or with a panoramic accessory like a Nodal Ninja. Not as flexible for rapid-action sports shots requiring rapid movement along 3-axis, but still recommended for everything else.

I use this battery with my PMW-F3 sony camera. I also use other sony batteries for my digital camera and digital video cam. All SONY batteries last longer and get charged fast. But they are somewhat expensive.

Worked perfectly to attach a teleconverter to a Sony a5000 digital camera.

Works perfectly! Now I can use my 1950's Leitz lenses on my Sony digital camera!

The case is being used for my SONY.. digital HD video camera recorder. It is big so that it will fix and room for digital camera, the ligths, etc... So far (4-5) producer, would like to have one now.

I use it as a back up for my digital camera.

While digital technologies continue to be perfected with professional camera use and their widespread applications, the latest Sony RX1RII fixed Zeiss lens camera (other cameras allow long-lens variants) exceeds expectations, especially when printing work on a large scale (with the Epson Stylus Pro 9900). While some relatively minor imperfections exist as with all cameras that professionals adjust to, the expansive quality of color, remarkable low-light resolution, extraordinary image quality and virtual unlimited visual potentials provide challenges that move into unchartered territory for artists (see attached site-specific photographic installation of 112x152cm prints). The most problematic issue is not Sony's: Adobe Photoshop has abandoned the long supporting professional community by not making a plug-in for this camera's RAW files (ARW in Sony terms). Two alternatives: 1) join the CC monthly feed of Adobe Photoshop (APS), abandoning the experienced professional use of all former Photoshop versions, or 2) for 99$ purchase the most basic APS Elements software that notes the Sony RX1RII RAW files are supported, at least noted in Elements literature. What a way to treat loyal professionals and Sony over the years, claiming that CC is better without meaningful details justifying the obvious money first, customer second policy for purchasing the CC version. Not mentioning inevitable future rises in CC prices, non-copyright protections in-Cloud, and not allowing printing in your studio with your own APS, even when CC RAW is tiff converted. Sony's RX1RII with Zeiss lens and its internal digital processor chip is remarkable for what the eye can see (numerous professional digital cameras now exceed what can be seen without mention), even with the rare if not unprecedented 600$ additional cost recently by Sony.

I have purchased L-Plates for every camera Ive owned since 2003 (the Digital Age), and Sony has been no exception. They keep the weight and lens centered on a tripod in the vertical position, and help protect the camera, somewhat like a roll cage. Cables attached to the side (e.g., for video) are protected, and that protection can be augmented with an Arca cable clamp. The RRS L-plates have two sockets for straps with a military-style quick connector, which is a secure way to carry the camera and easily removed as needed.

Although I usually choose Sony for my point & shoot digital cameras, after doing my research, I found the Canon PowerShot SX730 HS to be exactly what I was looking for. After nearly one month of using this camera daily on my European vacation, I found it absolutely perfect for my needs. The price was comparable to others that offered similar, but not all the features that this camera has, and it was reasonably priced at $379.00 from B & H Photo. Secondly, this camera takes spectacular pictures, allows me to edit them within the camera itself, and/or send the pictures wirelessly to my iPhone, a process which took me a while to understand, but once I figured it out, I was able to transfer my photos quickly. In Europe, the WIFI connection was not always perfect. So, sometimes while transferring my photos, I would lose the connection and have to start over. I imagine that would happen with any other similar camera under the same circumstances. I don't expect to have that same issue here in the States. I mostly used the AUTO setting, but will now explore the other features. The camera was reliable, the battery kept its charge throughout each day, and it was easy to use. I simply charged the battery and had it ready for the next tour day. I particularly liked the selfie feature, which worked quite smoothly. I also like the fact that the flash doesn't pop up unless and until you manually move the switch. This is especially helpful because, just like my former Sony digital camera, the flash would pop up where most people want to place their left hand index finger. It was always a pain having to tell people not to put their finger there. This eliminates that issue. The only con was when I returned home and wanted to wirelessly transfer my pictures to my MacBook Pro Version 10.11.6. Presently, this camera does not have that capability. I contacted a Canon rep who guided me through the process of uploading my pictures to their cloud. It worked quickly & perfectly.
