Hi all,
Just joined the site to see what tips I can pick up :flash:

I mostly do some (beginner) underwater photography and some bird/wildlife photography when out and about. I try astro too but without much success!

I've been using a Sony A6000 and 55-210 + an old screw on Olympus 1.7 teleconverter for wildlife, and usually the 16-50mm or 30mm macro for underwater, recently got a dome port and the 16mm+fisheye aswell. I've got the rokinon/samyang 12mm f2 for astro but haven't used it properly yet.

I have just purchased the Sony 200-600mm so hoping to get out with that soon for some closer bird shots!

Cheers
