I have rented an A7r II & an A7 III & I will list a few issues with Sony & those cameras. Let's start with the fact that they are a diversified Japanese electronics company that has their equipment made of Chineeseum. Kind of reminds me a little of Kodak (who was actually was a camera company, now just a name... they even hold the patents on the first digital camera developed back in the 70's. They opted to mothball the project for fear it would put them out of business. They cut their own throat there). The Nikon sensor IS in fact Sony, you are 100% correct on that. However, the sensors are made on optical steppers provided by..... Nikon. The ergo's on most Sony full frames are rather clunky, the grip is too close to the lens & the bodies tend to run on the warm side. The v-grip does make things a bit better. The battery, say on the A7 III has reasonable longevity, but if you charge from the USB cable/port, there's a risk of burning up the board should there be a surge for whatever reason. USB charging is also rather s-l-o-w. To keep this kind of short, lets move on to the lenses (the 3F's will take some time to write out (functions/features/firmware)). Most all Sony lenses are Cosina, even the Zeiss branded ones. As a matter of fact, most Zeiss lenses are outsourced & very few are made in Germany. And lastly, there warranty/repair/return support outright sucks. I can say they take excellent video. Hopefully that holds true for your A5100. And, sorry, not a diaper review fan. Too many schills pushing products & the concept of peer review is crap.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
