I'm a happy Sony shooter

[cooper27]

I started out with a Nikon F-Photomic Tn in 1967. Shot Nikon until Canon came out with a full-frame digital. Switched out to all Canon. A friend of mine that is a "serious" photographer had switched from Nikon to Sony. He sang their praises and I decided to try one. Purchased an A9 and a few lenses. Wow, what a joy. Ended up with several bodies and a great assortment of lenses. Goodbye Canon. The pictures are fantastic. I love the fact that you are able to assign different functions to the buttons. Also, the updates of the firmware don't make the camera obsolete every couple of years. The glass is amazing. Still learning and enjoying.

Thank you, everyone. Trying to get out for some astrophotography. 300 days a year of sunshine. Guess what? Cloudy!

I'm in FL, so with our humidity it feels like we have cloud cover any time I want to try astro!
What state are you in?

Eh, big deal. We get 300 days of sunshine in Michigan too, it's just that it's above the clouds...

Are you a Yooper? I was a troll.
