Hi from Stockport

[Arnie]

Hi all,
I used to play with cameras around 30 years ago. In those days I had a Pentax ME super, then Canon A1 followed by a Canon T90 after the A1 was nicked. Also had my own darkroom for B&W and cibachrome.
Life moved on with other sport's and family.
I've now just treated myself to a Sony A7 if to get back into my photography now I've retired. After a week the camera has already blown my mind with it's quality. I'm also looking forward to connecting it to a telescope when my adapter arrives.
So anyone in or near Stockport fancies a meet up or chat about kit and locations drop me a line

Welcome Arnie and thanks for joining us here! Which A7 did you go for? Or was it the first one introduced back in 2013?

Hi Tim,
After a looking around I decided to get the A7 iv. Part of the reason been honest is a friend of mine has an A6000 so we can swap lenses. It also has a decent write up for astrophotograpy. I'm now waiting for my adapter so I can put my camera on my telescope.
Since I've started using this camera I'm absolutely blown by the quality of the pictures.
Looking forward to learning more about the camera.
