Hello! My name is Kris, born and raised in Sweden, and I'm a new Sony user. Sadly, I didn't become a Sony user purely by choice. ;) I lost my previous gear in a little water-related accident a few weeks ago and decided to take that as an oppurtunity to switch brand. Ever since I became addicetd to bird photography I've been eyeballing the Sony cameras and the Sony 200-600 lens.

Thanks to great insurrance I got a lot of money back since my previous gear was very new. I sold the lenses I had and started fresh. Here's what I bought:

- Sony A7 III (together with a Meike battery grip)
- Sony 200-600
- Viltrox 85/1.8
- Sigma 105/2.8 Macro

Besides birds, which is a fairly new hobby (since October last year), I love close-ups. So I guess that's what I'll be doing most.

I'm super excited to get started again! But to be honest, I'm a little nervous too. I'm not very keen on change in general and I'm 200% a creature of habit. Hopefully I'll learn to love my new stuff as well. :D But today it's been raining the entire day, so the real premiere will be in the upcoming days!
 
Welcome! There are many bird photography enthusiasts here, looks like you have the right gear for it too.
 
Welcome Kristoffer and thank you for joining up here! That sucks about your little water accident but great that the insurance paid out, there's always a worry that they will find an excuse not to! It looks like you have invested the money wisely as well! :) If you have any questions about your new gear or this site please don't hesitate to ask.
