Mine arrived today. The Viltrox seal stickers had already been cut open. Lens itself was fine and had no signs of use from what I could…

Sistema Hydrate Tritan Flip Top Bottle 1L is good. I have used one for 5-10 years now. Flip lid but have not had any issues with it leaking…

I dislike this bottle. I've owned it for over a year and its leaked 5 times because I haven't tightened the lid properly and its been…

I have this exact ram, a Ryzen 7700 and and this motherboard. It's supported. No issues so far.

Just to follow up, from these recommendations I bought this motherboard, rev 1.3 and have not noticed any coil whine. So far so good.

Other formats have taken over this space to a degree. If you want ultimate space saving then a Pixel Pro is pretty decent for a lot of…

Any coil whine? Seems Gigabyte boards suffer more from this than other manufacturers which is putting me off.

I sold my Sony APS-C and M43 and went FF a few years ago. Very happy with the decision.

Great lens. Owned it since launch and my most used lens. Probably paid around $1400ish which was a good deal back then so this is a…

Get the Viltrox 50mm F2 AIR instead. Cheaper and much better (according to reviews, I am still waiting for mine).

Goonos commented on Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 Di III VC VXD (Full Frame) for Sony E-Mount $906.34 (RRP $1159) Delivered @ digiDirect eBay
If this focal range interests you, don't forget the Sony 20-70 F4 for a bit more range, extra controls and excellent image quality. I think…

Same. But there is so much stuff to get side tracked on that at this price it's great value.

Autofocus and IBIS probably the most substantial differences for stills depending on your scenario. The new menu is a nice quality of life…
