Went for a little hike this weekend at Silver Falls State Park.  We started at the North Falls  Trailhead and hiked to North Falls and then down the creek for a mile or so.  The parking lot was pretty full and there was quite a few people on the trail for the end of September.  We got to the North Falls and took a few pictures of the falls which looked pretty good with the Autumn colors just starting to show.
This was a chance for me to get out hiking with the family and also a chance to try out my new to me Sony A7 that I picked up used from Adorama. Â I decided after years of using my Sony A6000 it was time to venture into full frame. Â I picked up the A7 with a 50mm f1.8 full frame lens both used for what I thought was a pretty good price.
I really enjoyed shooting with the A7, it is not as fast as the a6000 focusing, but I was shooting landscape shots where slowing down is typically a good thing. Â The menu system and setup is very similar so the learning curve wasn’t bad.
Used the eye autofocus to shoot a couple of portrait shots and this works as well as it did on the a6000.
I still like the a6000, but for landscape and portrait shots I think I will mostly switch to the A7. Â The next step will be to sell a few of the APSC lenses I have for the a6000 and replace them with full frame lenses.
Thanks for reading, time to get out and shoot!
