Bought
  • Sony A7II
  • Macbook Pro
  • CC photo plan
  • Canon 50STM
  • YONGNUO YN-E3-RT
  • YONGNUO YN600EX-RT
  • Canon 7d II referb
  • Canon 16-35f 4 IS

Sold Nothing

I was disappointed that the YN-E3-RT could not trigger the YN600EX-RT on my A7II. Apparently it would only trigger genuine Canon flashes when used in manual mode (on non Cameras). But it worked perfectly on my 6D so I am keeping it anyway.

I just bought the 16-35 last week and have not even had the chance to take a decent test picture.

Oh, if we're including computers, I got a MBP too - mostly for editing. Had to sell the 85L for it, but I hadn't used that lens enough to justify keeping it :(

Sold: 100-400 mk1, liked it but the 300 bare or with a 1.4 extender is in a different class.

Bought: Canon 70-200mm f2.8 Mk2, Canon 300mm f2.8 Mk1, Manfrotto Carbon Befree Tripod and lots of small stuff, all adds up. Got to pay for refitting our ensuite shower room in the new year (or the wife will murder me :), so 2015 will be a quiet year gearwise.

Regards, Merry Christmas and a happy new year from, Alan and family.

So, was an impressive year. I don't see any new lenses for next year. Cameras, yeah , 1DxII and 5D4 are very tempting, but I hope I can wait till the prices are dropped a little :).

We will see :p

Been an unusually active year for me. The first time i've ever tried selling camera gear.

Bought a second 6D body.
Bought 100-400mm II.
Sold 400mm f/5.6. My 100-400mm II has as good IQ.
Bought 24-70 f/4, but returned it due to poor IQ.
Bought M3 system (body, EVF, EFM lenses).
Sold M3 system. Turned out to not fit my shooting style/process, oh well.
Sold 17-40mm. I had bought 16-35mm f/4 IS last year.
Sold EF-S 10-22mm. I had bought EF-S 10-18mm STM last year.
Sold 50mm f/1.4 -- wasn't happy with it.
Bought 50mm f/1.8 STM.
Sold old 24-105mm L kit lens -- wasn't happy with it.
Eventually bought a new 24-105mm L lens.
Bought EF-S 24mm pancake.

I've been trying out Amazon Tradein for some of my sells. I might post sometime of my experiences with it, good and bad.
