Jacek: “It seems that the recent Sony Image Data Converted is unable to process properly raw files from A6000. I have the camera from yesterday and I was in shock how bad IQ it has. Finally I found a reason – take a look at: http://www.dane.pixel-tech.pl/jpytportfolio/A6000/idc_raw.jpg”

Jimmy: “I upload a review of the A6000 for Sony Singapore a week ago; especially on the AF system against the NEX 5R and the viewfinder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KM1JF4yUZig”

Craig: “I’ve come from the Minolta ages and moved into Sony, finally buying an A99 when it was first released. I had to drop it off for a warranty repair that turned into me getting it replaced under warranty as that was their quickest solution. The whole process has taken 2 months though as Sony Australia didn’t have any A99’s in stock – I couldn’t believe it, they replaced the camera because parts were going to mean waiting 3 months instead! I would have happily paid the freight from Japan if they’d given me the option!
I wrote about the whole process in detail here à http://www.dyxum.com/dforum/a99-replaced-under-warranty_topic105572.html”

Edward: “Last week I converted a Sony A7 into Full-Spectrum. So far I’ve concentrated on the infra-red abilities, but I hope to do more soon. With it’s EVF and great lens compatability the A7 makes a great camera to convert, so I thought some of your readers might appreciate my first impressions review here: http://infraedd.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/cameras-sony-a7-converted-to-full.html“
