Welcome Michelle and thanks again for joining up here and introducing yourself. Beautiful photos! That must be a fun but also a challenging sport to shoot.
Welcome Mike and thanks for joining up here and introducing yourself. I'm sure you are going to love shooting with the R6 Mk II this summer! If you have any questions about the forum please don't hesitate to ask.
Nice shot! Not far from me either but I've not been for ages. We live on Clee Hill and there's always a few about at this time of year, although I've not spotted one yet!
Good to hear Peter! :) It is a very stress free forum to admin right now, although as it grows I expect a few more issues will crop up, they always do.

Cheers Phil. The red kites are always good fun to shoot, these were taken at Bwlch Nant Yr Arian near to Aberystwyth. I'd love to see this lens developed for the RF mount. That said, any RF lens from Sigma would be nice right now! :)

Welcome David and thank you for joining up here and introducing yourself. We are a small forum but growing a little bigger each week thanks to our amazing members. Just let me know if you have any questions.
No. I do own the Sigma 100-400mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS for Sony E-mount which has excellent image quality but it is let down in the AF department when compared to first party lenses from Sony.
As an owner of the RF 100-500 I'm probably a little biased, but in your shoes I'd sell the Sigma and get the 100-500. The image quality is excellent and the autofocus has rarely let me down. I also enjoy the close focusing capabilities for shooting smaller critters. The extra reach of the...
Here are some quick links to helpful resources along with the latest firmware versions.
Firmware Note: After selecting your OS version if the firmware is not displayed try selecting an older OS version. For some reason the firmware doesn’t always display for the latest OS versions, even though...
