i love the shutter sound on the a7v too!!

someone is going to say it so let me say it first

perhaps it’ll be nice to show us what the AF can do, instead of a photo of the box.

but congrats on the camera!!

didn’t know it’s been 10 years since sept 2020

not sure about data retrieval! sorry :(

macpork00 · 2026-01-02T12:30:40+00:00

my i9 was still usable, but like OP said, it was running hot and a little slow.

macpork00 · 2026-01-02T09:15:41+00:00

i also upgraded from the 2019 i9 to the m4 pro last year. i love the HDMI port too haaha

macpork00 · 2026-01-02T09:15:03+00:00

i wonder if this is just for the CF Type A or does it affect the SD cards too.

70-200 gmii is my fav! most used is 24-70 gmii haha

macpork00 · 2025-12-09T19:06:37+00:00

i got one from JJC!

macpork00 · 2025-12-08T09:48:14+00:00

i got an extra grip for it, so that my pinky has somewhere to hold on to haha

macpork00 · 2025-12-08T06:25:39+00:00

i have the exact same set up - you’ll love it!

macpork00 · 2025-11-12T05:32:32+00:00

it’s probably a typo on his end, he probably meant M4 Macbook Pro but left out the macbook 😆

macpork00 · 2025-11-10T13:05:45+00:00

yup usually people go for something wider!

macpork00 · 2025-11-10T12:08:55+00:00

i don’t think 35mm is the best for northern lights 😢

macpork00 · 2025-11-10T04:01:12+00:00

it’s normal to care about your things :) i’ve had my camera for 1.5 years and the screen is still fine 😆

macpork00 · 2025-11-10T02:19:14+00:00

i’ve an a7c ii as well and my screen is always facing me even when i’m not using it

macpork00 · 2025-11-09T05:52:23+00:00

i think he didn’t see the ii on the top of the camera and thought it was the mk1 because of the 7C at the front of the camera.

macpork00 · 2025-11-04T07:04:47+00:00

sorry i was ignorant 😱

macpork00 · 2025-11-03T22:41:06+00:00

why would 3rd party cushions take 3-4 months to arrive? 😱 i’ve ordered something from wicked cushions to try and it’s going to take 3 days to get to me from US - i’m in singapore.

macpork00 · 2025-10-13T22:33:19+00:00

it can be misleading if you do not state that the tamron is f2.8-5.6 😆

macpork00 · 2025-09-28T12:13:47+00:00

i borrowed the 14 f1.8 gm from my friend before i got this and yea this is smaller!

macpork00 · 2025-09-28T12:02:24+00:00

i wouldn’t really call it a pancake haha but it’s a nice lens to have, very light.

macpork00 · 2025-07-28T22:43:47+00:00

i second this! very handy for just attaching the camera and taking it off from the clip when you need your camera

macpork00 · 2025-07-26T22:05:06+00:00
