Chuck:I added a video showing some images I got while shooting a Division 1 College Football Game this fall using the Sony A9 + 300 2.8 A-Mount Lens and the 100-400 GM Lens.  Also shot with the A99II. https://youtu.be/IaCOpgym0bU

Mariano:Here’s a new article featuring the sony a7RIII and the 16-35mm GM and the 100mm GM. hope your readers will find it useful. https://movetomirrorless.com/2018/03/06/portraits-with-the-sony-a7riii-in-yosemite/

Horshack:I found a quick and easy way to avoid the “Writing to Memory card. Unable to operate” error seen on Sony cameras whenever a user attempts to review a photo they’ve just taken. As you know, Sony eliminated this issue on their newest cameras like the A7rIII, A9, and A6500 with their faster front-end LSI chip, but the error still occurs on very popular models like the A7rII, A7II, A6300, RX10 II/II, RX100 IV and earlier, etc… My workaround addresses these cameras. Here is a short video demonstrating the workaround: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmJyMk2KLcs
