Sony Professional Camera Repair

Nice set of camera repair tool. It does make your repairs easier!

When my 16-70 f/4 Sony lens needed repair it was actually a wake up call. All the reviews are true. The lens is small and light and easy to handhold! Even wide open the center is tack sharp and the corners good! Stopped down to f/5.6 the entire image is sharp. Distortion at both ends is visible but correctable in camera for jpegs or in raw via Lightroom lens profiles. Focus is quick and accurate and the bokeh is nice and smooth. The Sigma colors are warm and realistic. This lens is perfect for general photography, landscape, portraits, event and travel. This lens complements my 10-18 f/4 Sony; 60 f/2.8 Sigma; and 70-200 f/4 Sony. Great job Sigma!!

I replaced a Canon 500mm L lens that Canon refused to repair (stating out of service period). This not only works as well (IMO) with my Canon bodies, but paired with the MC-11 EF to Sony adapter - is absolutely excellent. The shots from my Sony A7 III paired with the combo actually exceed what either of my Canon bodies can produce. Very happy with this lens.

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.

A year ago I was looking for a high capacity battery for a professional Panasonic camera (that was admittedly ancient) and couldn't find a battery I liked that could hold a candle to the canon BP-975 I use with my Canon FX100.� When I recently got my hands on an elderly Sony HVR-Z5U I remembered Sony made some great batteries (I used to have a DSR PD150).� I found my old charger and debated purchasing the Sony NP-F970 battery, or an adapter so that I could plug my "new" camera into the wall while streaming basketball games.� I went with the battery and have not been disappointed.� I don't know what the maximum capacity of this battery is with my specific set-up, but I do know that it still had plenty of charge after six hours of broadcasting earlier this week.� This is a great battery and, from what I've seen, well-priced.

This is my first camera. I chose this Sony a6000, because my father, a professional photographer, recommended it. I could not be happier with this purchase and this camera. I have gotten enough good shots, I mean shots exceeding my artistic expectations and hopes for expression, that I am thoroughly hooked on this camera specifically and photography in general. After a week, I bought the telephoto lens, and now I'm considering buying the macro lens. It's easy to transfer the photos to my phone. I'm looking forward to getting some archival quality prints of my favorites. This camera exceeded my expectations in every way!

I do professional videography but I started out years ago shooting on a Pentax K1000 film camera. I bought the a6000 primarily for shooting video with a large sensor camera. This camera is fantastic. At around $500 there is nothing that comes close in features and it has a aps C sensor which is found in 90% of all dslr and mirrorless cameras. I’ve seen canon 1” sensor point ant shoot cameras for hundreds more. I shoot low light wedding videos on this camera and the video looks fantastic. It also shoots video in Sony’s xavc 50 mbps format which is found on Sony cameras and pro camcorders costing thousands more. This small camera is a beast!

I am a professional wedding videographer and I just upgraded to the Sony A7S II. The camera body is nice and solid but for my big hands it was nearly impossible to hold easily because only about 3 of my fingers fit on the small hand grip. This grip not only adds that extra hand space to hold the camera up without hand fatigue, but it also allows you to use two batteries which is hugely important as this camera burns through batteries pretty quickly when used for video.

I recently brought this battery to go along with my Sony A7ii. I am not a professional. I take pictures as a hobby. I shoot about 100 photos a day. I use steady shot on the camera, shoot raw, and have the highest display settings on the camera. The battery will last me 4 to five days shooting this way. It's fantastic. I heard so many people put down the A7ii for bad battery life. I do not find that the case shooting as an enthusiast. Great buy!

I bought this mic as an on camera shotgun and loved it. I use it on a Sony HDR- AX2000. I'm a semi-professional videographer and I shoot a lot of shorts, high school/minor league sports, and corporate interviews. The audio quality was clean and the mic even performed well as a boom on a few shoots because the mic had great range. It compact so it's great on the camera, it never gets in the shot like longer models. Make sure to use the rubber spacing rings that come with the mic to get a snug fit in the camera's mic shoe because this mic is narrow. Also know that the mic requires phantom power (Must be used off an XLR straight out of the camera) I'll only owned the mic for a few months so I can only hope it will last over time but so far so good. It is a great mic for a semi-professional/professional on a bugdet.
