Very nice. B&W works well for this one.
Very nice. I've not seen that many bees yet this year, but probably due to the lack of flowers in my garden!
Cheers AFB - the contrast between the red rocks and the bluish sky works well for B&W conversion - gives a nice degree of contrast for this sort of shot.Very nice. B&W works well for this one.

Great bargain dude. Congrats on finding them.View attachment 631778
Picked up these two puppies today for a steal from a major retailer, if not the major-est, who for some reason had them at half price (...). It was a weird word-of-mouth-only sale price, in a restricted amount of branches in the southern suburbs of Athens, and only the department heads knew about this price. What a weird sale approach to unload some excess gear stock. This price was not even announced on the retailer's website nor the telephone sales dpt.
More precisely, I got them on Friday, but had them only in silver at the time, and I wanted the black which I ordered immediately after purchasing (to guarantee the price) and exchanged/collected today. I had two new cameras which I couldn't use during the wkd. What a let down. I avoided the silvers, which I liked, because of client perception. They look like a point-and-shoot truth be told.
Not gray markets, sealed in their boxes and everything. They came with 3.1 firmware boxed. Very strange, as today they're back at the normal price-range of EUR669,00, I got them for EUR329,00 each, 23% VAT inclusive, which I am going to collect back as invoice issued to a pro-friend of mine. VAT in Greece in handled as VAT paid/collected, and difference amount is deducted. So it's a win/win for me and my friend. Final net for both EUR535 (GBP418/USD605/AUD825)
These are my new wedding & event cinematography weapons along with a rode videomic pro, a slider dolly and 2 yongnuo yn-600l II 5500k led panels.
Sorry once again for an off topic post, but this was an extraordinary find, along with my leap of faith towards Sony at half the price. These are going to be extra excellent as well for street photography coupled with some vintage minolta & vivitar glass I have.
Minolta/Emount adapter arriving tomorrow...!
ps
I love them, hope it lasts

Nice score mate! I am really tempted to snag a 6K to replace my RX100 as my carry all, just getting a bit tired of the noise on the RX...
