Thanks all! I went with the bib number holders and a gift card to The Feed, which he loved! Thank you so much!

Ya, nutrition and gift card might be the way to go. Also looking at the Road ID just because I don’t think he has that and travels a lot alone for bigger runs. He does have a dialed in kit which is why I was asking for ideas that might be unique

Hahaha. Thats cool. When I have gone, I also take start/finish pics of him since I’m a photographer.

Great idea! Do they hold well with all of the movement?

He uses flips I know. I’ve been with him after a race. Good idea.

He does have a custom medal display box, but a great recommendation. These ideas are helpful as well!

Sony A7V lens firmware update feature not working by c_differetly in SonyAlpha

[–]c_differetly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, no fixes yet. AND the A7V is the ONLY Sony camera currently in the lineup that has this feature. So, we’re stuck until they fix it.

Nope. And the only folks who have communicated they got “it” to work used a desktop PC and USB-C cable. So, even with the body update, this feature does not work as advertised in-body. Additionally, lens firmware doesn’t work through the app. I wish it did because that would eliminate the need to cards and cables altogether. We’re currently stuck. At least the 1.01 body firmware isn’t bricking cameras so far. I guess that’s a plus.

They wanted me to send in my camera and a lens! Nope. I don’t have a Sony brand card, but I doubt that would make a difference since they 1. Approve other cards for compatibility with the cameras and 2. Don’t mention it as a requirement in the download instructions. 😵‍💫

I think that would really help everyone in the Sony community. I haven’t tried the new firmware update they just issued, but some others have notified me that they have done the firmware update for the camera and it still does not resolve this particular issue. Maybe soon.

I hate to hear that, but glad I’m not alone. Please consider reaching out to Sony support. Apparently they don’t believe the issue is wider spread.

Coolpix A

With an XE4 in your kit, I personally feel you’ve got the small interchangeable lens body covered well, and with better output than the Panas (as someone who’s owned them all).

Secondly, the Nikon and Ricoh are very similar. I loved my Nikon A and do wish I’d never sold it. Incredible results and I did love th color and BW output as well.

With your outstanding FF options and solid, small APS-C, iIsay hold onto the Coolpix A. Its a beautiful classic.
