Another Newbie/Amateur

[PaperFlea]

Hi from Orlando, FL, USA. I have been having fun photographing my family/pets/cars and anything else. As a car nut, I like good photos of mine and other's cars. I've been getting along with my iPhone 12 Pro, but wanted to expand my knowledge. My last "serious" camera was a Pentax K1000, so that was just a few years ago.

Looking forward to learning much more here. I just bought a Sony A7C, after a weekend stint with a Canon EOS RP. The Canon's images were outstanding, but the autofocus was embarrassing and I thought I'd cut my losses. My brothers both use Sony, so they just nodded knowingly when I told them.

The old K1000. I still have mine. It is a bludgeon that can be used to take photos with. Graduated to an ME Super and then to a Sony digital in '99. It still works and gives good images, (http://www.iretron.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/mavica2.jpg). I've stuck with Sony since then. Had a Pentax digital but gave it away, Sony is where it is at.

So welcome aboard. You will find knowledge and collegiality here.

Welcome Greg and thanks for joining up here! The a7C is proving to be quite a popular camera! Which lens have you decided to go with?

Thanks, Tim. I am using the kit 28-60 for now. I think the 35 will be the first one I pursue, though.
