I looked it up just to be certain and my next camera will be a nice one that gets excellent reviews from users and I can afford to buy lenses for if I don't have then already. Sorted

Google "resizing as a smart object" and you will find your answer.

Mike, If you own a PC go to faststone.org and download the free image viewer, if you don't want to install it down load the portable version which will run without being installed. When ready open the first image in the programme and move the curser to the left and a menu will appear click on Auto Adjust Colour a small tweek in Curves and it is a different image.

Try cleaning the muck out of the viewfinder

Last year I bought a new FF Sony & kit lens for just over £600. I have no regrets at all. The kit lens is slow but sharp, the EVF is a bit clunky and the shutter is loud..........but I love it.

A few stats from Lightroom.
Exposures F1.8 to F3.5 8876: f4 1439 from a total of 15,488
High ISO. 6400 4379; 12800 4235; 25600 506
I will be out on Friday and the ISO 12800 count will be increased, I will be using aF2.8 and a f1.8.

I just took delivery on Thursday of a K&F Concepts PK to Sony E adapter. It is very well made, it is for use with lenses with an aperture ring. I have just ordered a cheap one from China that will give some control over my for DA lenses.

I would have thought there is a DNG file option on the camera, if there is give that a go.
