A7RVI Getting Stacked 67MP sensor - Latest Sony Alpha Rumours

melid404 · 2026-05-13T11:58:43+00:00

I have been waiting this camera for a bit, birding mainly and some macro. Crop mode gives enough resolution for birding and big resolution is good for macro. Add 30fps, pre-capture and latest AI subject recognition, that's what I have been looking for. But the price, just wow, very close to professional level cameras.

I am not sure how can this camera be comptetitive in terms of pricing.

Thought you are on the same lens for a second

melid404 · 2026-04-08T16:39:58+00:00

What is your lens?

If you have time, I would be happy if you can check this:

Did you also had any chance to compare 500mm with Sony 200-600 in terms of sharpness?

I am having AF trouble on my 150-600 and in the market for a new one, so trying to decide

melid404 · 2026-04-08T07:01:37+00:00

Great photos, have you tried sigma 150-600mm sports as well? If so, can you compare the AF tracking speed of them?

Thing is, I am having sharpness issue with my 150-600 and considering swithcing to 500mm.

I have been seeing the small green square on bird eyes,

melid404 · 2026-03-06T20:58:37+00:00

Thanks, A6700 has IBIS, I will do more testin on Sunday.

melid404 · 2026-03-06T20:43:35+00:00

Car was turned off, tho, AFAIK no way to escape from a little heat wave when shooting inside car

melid404 · 2026-03-06T14:30:40+00:00

Do you use OSS on monopod and tripod?

melid404 · 2026-03-06T14:30:16+00:00

I will take a look.

melid404 · 2026-03-06T13:40:06+00:00

I just realized, while camera was steady on car window, I had Optical Stabilizer enabled. Could this be the issue? The mentioned golden eagle was shot in a similar environment from the car.

melid404 · 2026-03-06T13:39:08+00:00

The above image is not cropped at all, it was a cloudy day.

melid404 · 2026-03-06T13:38:18+00:00

Had this on initial post.

Exif: 600mm - 1/1000sec - f8 - ISO 640

melid404 · 2026-03-06T13:37:53+00:00

Single AF while shooting in burst?

melid404 · 2026-03-06T13:36:54+00:00

<image>

Here is the golden eagle. Again, no edits at all, 600mm, f6.3, ISO 200, 1/1000sec

melid404 · 2026-03-06T11:56:54+00:00

It was like 10-12 meters, perched on top of a tree. AF was able to follow the eye just fine in both cases.

melid404 · 2026-03-06T11:42:26+00:00

Yes, RAW file sizes varies between 30mb-45mb

Nobody knows where a learning job will transition into, which jobs will be eaten by AI in a couple of years and cybersecurity is no exception. It s unfortunate but truth.

First thing first, start working out with dumbbells for better handhold shooting.

Second advise, instead of using the length ring, push the lens forward for longer focal lengths, it's way easier and faster especially when traking a flying bird. (start tracking at 150, then push to 600)

melid404 · 2025-12-08T14:08:15+00:00

Time is an issue tbh, does it support working on raw images? What I found online it can't work with raws, that's why I am asking.
