Sony A99v x CZ 2470 x HVL60 Biking At Night (High ISO Shots 1600-3200)

10 years 11 months ago #282634 by thednalife
Just got my A99, CZ2470, & HVL60 in yesterday. Upgraded from a Canon 60D, but I had shot Sony since the days of the A100 & A700 were roaming around. I've been waiting for a long time for Sony to release a camera like the A99, so I did a little nightshoot to see if it lived up to the hype.

I'm not entirely sold on the autofocus in low-light yet. It felt a littel on the slow side, so I had to rely on MF for quite a few shots, but luckily using MF with the A99 is bloddy fantastic. AF-D mode is awesome in theory. However, I found it to be a 50/50 performer in practice as sometimes my images would come out as intended while others it would mis-focus.

I'm impressed with ISO 1600 & 3200 as both are useable by my standards, but you can see some smudging coming in at 3200 ever so slightly. Resized for the web they look great.

Also noticed that the EVF/Display lags in lowlight which is odd. I've never seen any other live view do this in the past and never saw this in any official review as a con. Anyways onto the pictures. Let me know what you think, but just keep in mind this was just a run & gun test done in 15 minutes or so.
