I haven't been around for a while (since I drifted away from Nikon) so it is good to see the forum still lives. I have become addicted to my a1 for all forms of photography. So, I though that you might like to see a grainy, massively cropped and low-resolution, and blurred picture with this beast.

To be fair, this is really hugely cropped, at ISO 51,200 and 1/24 at 400mm, and the owl was not visible to the naked eye at all.

Welcome back Ed, good to ‘hear’ from you again.
Yes the forum is still active (at the moment) …..but the debate rages on as to its merit with only a few regulars now contributing. 

Graham, Iain and myself have moved over to Sony whilst Jeff is an Olympus user now. There is therefore a mix of cameras now being used and discussed on this ‘Nikon + Others’ forum.

Would love to hear/see more of your Sony journey to date. That capture is quite remarkable given the lighting …or lack thereof. What type of owl is it?

 I am struggling with raw conversion at the moment, mainly because I use Affinity Photo on the iPad for editing and I suspect (they won’t admit it) that the developers haven’t bothered to update their raw engine for the A1. Graham recently processed some of my files through photoshop with definite improvement. I may have to bite the bullet and abandon the iPad for processing and buy a new laptop….as Photoshop on the iPad is too limited. Maybe in the new year…when the rains come.
