If youve ever wondered how a photographer managed to capture the exact moment of an incredible end zone reception or the instant a bird takes flight, the answer, in part, is that the photographers camera also captured the garbage moments directly before and after that golden frame, with a very expensive camera rattling off photos at tommy gun speeds. For these professional sports and nature photographers there are two widely accepted options The tippy top cameras from Canon and Nikon, with their big bulky bodies, incredible power, and the most advanced image sensors. Well, Sony finally has an answer to the incumbents in its A9. Not only is this full frame, mirrorless camera smaller, lighter, and cheaper than the Nikon and Canon competition, it absolutely blows their doors off when it comes to speed. Sony A9. What is it The fastest mirrorless camera Sonys made yet. Like. So fast youll forget about Nikon and Canon. No Like. That price means this is a pro camera. For those not entirely up on the high end camera scene these days, heres a quick catch up. In an arena that has been dominated by Canon and Nikon since pretty much forever, Sonys star has been on the rise. It had been making solid mirrorless cameras for a while, but when its A7 series came out a few years ago, thats when professionals really started to take notice. These were compact mirrorless cameras with sharp electronic viewfinders good enough to rival the optical eyepieces in DSLRs. They also had very sensitive full frame image sensors that could capture beautiful photos. When we say full frame, what we meanis a 3. Basically, the bigger the sensor, the more light it can gather. But while the A7 models and their successors could get professional results, they didnt quite have the power the most demanding photographers require. The A9 changes that. Its like the A7s track star big brotheran undeniably pro level shooter with a 4,5. The first thing to know is that the A9 is real small. At roughly 4 inches by 5 inches by 2. A9 is only slightly bulkier than Sonys very svelte A7 series cameras. Canons high end sports shooter, the 1. D X Mark II is 6. Hell, even Canons mid range professional DSLR, the 5. D Mark IV is substantially bigger and heavier than the A9, and the same can be said of Nikons entries. Its amazing how much Sony has crammed into that little frame. And of course, this thing is absurdly fast. Its capable of firing off full resolution 2. JPEGs at a blistering 2. It sounds like a Gatling gun, unless you turn the sound off, in which case it is literally silent thanks to the electronic shutter more on that in a second. Even when shooting in RAW JPEG mode, I was able to fire off an 8 second burst at 1. The A9 is equipped with a wide autofocus system that covers more than 9. It is lightning fast and extremely accurate, even when shooting at its blistering top speeds. I tested it with running dogs and with people on a zip line flying right at me. Even at a shallow depth of field f2. Nothing else on the market comes close to this kind of performance. Its bananas. But let me try to explain what its like to shoot with this camera. Not to get hyperbolic here, but it almost feels like you cant miss. An example I was walking by a creek with the camera dangling off my neck, powered off. I saw a golden retriever emerge from the water and start to shake itself off. It has already started shaking before Id hit the power button to turn the camera back on, and yet I was still able to fire off a burst of 1. My A7. S which is by no means slow wouldnt have even gotten a single shot off in that time. Using the A9 almost feels like cheating. I loved shooting long exposures with it, too. Unfortunately, there was always too much moon and too much haze for me to try a nice, clear shot of the Milky Way, but Im confident it would excel there. I did get a handful of shots while driving down Highway 5. Nevada the so called Loneliest Road In America that I was really happy with. The above shot was a single exposure taken with the electronic shutter around midnight. I was side lit by the moon and backlit by an oncoming truck relax, it was very far away. It was a 2. 0 second exposure at ISO 8. Obviously, I did plenty of tweaking in Lightroom, but I use this to show you just how much dynamic range is captured in the RAW photos. In terms of low light I find myself shocked to say its nearly as good as the Sony A7. S which has been my main camera for the last two years. Dragon Ball Z Mugen Edition 2009 Games Pc. The low light focused A7. S is a hair brighter, but noise levels are nearly identical, and the A9 has twice as many megapixels to play with 2. MP vs 1. 2MP. Sonys image sensor does a great job of sucking up any available light even when you turn up the sensitivity that would ordinarily turn light into garbage. At ISO 6,4. 00 there is almost no noise at all. Even ISO 2. 5,6. 00 is extremely usable, though youll probably want to use some noise reduction in Lightroom. ISO 5. 1,2. 00 could maybe do in a pinch, but at that point things are starting to get fairly chunky. ISO 1. 02,4. 00 isnt the worst thing Ive ever seen, but youre better off avoiding it unless youve got a rare shot at Sasquatch or something. The A9 has mechanical and electric shutter options. You can manually select either, but Id recommend leaving it in auto. When shooting a single shot or a low speed burst 5 fps maximum it will default to mechanical shutter, which gives you a bit more depth in your RAW images 1. Youll also want to use the mechanical shutter if youre using an external flash the A9 doesnt have one built in. If youre shooting medium or high speed bursts, the camera switches over to electronic shutter, which is also better for fast moving objects. When using the electronic shutter you can also shoot completely silently, which is almost eerie, but awesome. The A9 does a solid job with video. It can shoot 4. K at speeds of up to 3. I will say, my least favorite thing about the cameras design is that Sony put the video startstop record button right next to the viewfinder. I mean, its practically touching it. If you use your left eye in the viewfinder as I was taught to do your nose will absolutely, 1. Its just about the worst imaginable place for that very important button to be. There are some other annoyances, too. The A9 has two SD card slots, which is great, except for some reason only one of those slots supports UHS II SD cards i. The other one is stuck at UHS I. Other grievancesSonys menu system is still extremely intimidating, to say the least. The menu is a whopping thirty six 3. Also, after shooting about 1. K 2. 4fps video spread out over 4. I noticed that I was getting an overheating warning on the screen. Thats not good. It still allowed me to snap photos, but Im not sure what would have happened if I kept pushing it. Other users have been complaining about this issue, and its definitely something Sony needs to address. Update Sony claims this issue has been fixed in a firmware update, though we have already returned our review unit, and were not able to test it for ourselves. So, all that being said, should you buy it Well, do you have the need The need for speed If so, then youre not going to find a faster camera out there. The A9 costs 4,5. While thats cheaper than the Canon 1. Compact 3. 3 Little LPs Juke Box EPsThe Stereo Singles Project, Part 3. Compact 3. 3 Little LPs Juke Box EPs. By Mike Callahan, Tim Neely, Dave Edwards, Patrice Eyries, Randy Watts, and Thomas Reed. Last update November 2. The Beginning. By the spring of 1.

EPs that had been around since the early 1. Their test case. would be a new Chubby Checker offering, and Chubby was hot at the time. Each side would have 2. They would be mono. The Parkway disc would be viewed as. It failed miserably. Record stores didnt want to carry another format, and people were reluctant to buy. None of the four songs charted from the compact double, though Dance the Mess Around charted. But that didnt stop some of the majors from jumping in to test the. Capitol issued about a dozen discs featuing their most popular artists biggest. RCA Victor started issuing compact doubles, too. These major labels found the same thing that. Parkway did. They didnt sell. In October, 1. 96. Archie Bleyer announced that he would release six Little LPs with three songs on. Cadences back catalog. It was a new format and this was. Little LP had been used. Cadence put a series of ads see left in. Billboard over the next several months, but when these hit the stores, they got the same chilly. By spring, 1. 96. Bleyer gave up. Mercury immediately liked the Cadence idea, though, and in November, 1. Cadences announcement, started their own series of mono Little LPs. They called them Compact 6. Little LPs. The initial offering was ten different records, but Mercury abandoned the series almost. The next fall, a Billboard story 92. A. Mercury executive shudderingly recalled the experiment. Bombsville, he said. The First Generation. But somebody was listening. That somebody was in the form of Seeburg jukebox company. They. liked the idea of Little LPs, but wanted them in stereo to play in a jukebox they had planned. They began. working with various labels on a very hush hush project, to produce some of these stereo Little LPs. Then in September, 1. The curtain was unveiled later in September on their new stereo jukebox console which. Little LPs and had places to display album covers for them see photo below. Seeburg gave. credit to Cadence for the innovation of the Little LP, and pointed out that jukeboxes had largely become. Little LPs with adult content such as easy listening or. Immediately, the industry as a whole spoke up, as usual with divided opinions. Making Little LPs for. But nobody was jumping on. Been. there, done that, got the red ink. Everyone seemed to see making Little LPs for Seeburg and. Seeburg agreed, although by making the Little LPs available for jukebox operators through. But no advertising aimed at the general public would be done. Seeburg hit the ground running. Before the new jukebox was even available, they had signed up. ABC Paramount, Audio Fidelity, Cadence, Columbia, Command, Decca, Dot, Everest, Impulse. JazzlandRiverside, Kapp, LondonMonument, Mercury, RCA Victor, Time, and Washington. The list of. artists looked like a whos who of easy listening and classical music. Nary a rock and roller in the bunch. The discs would cost the jukebox operators 1. Seeburg as well as the individual record labels distributors. Seeburg would put together a catalog of. By January, 1. 96. Little LPs. By 1. Seeburg was openly gloating in the trade press about how their idea had. Little LPs. Seeburg noted in January, 1. By 1. 96. 6. there would be over 1. Little LPs in the catalog, and that didnt include the Little LPs in circulation. Wurlitzer or ATI. But by October, 1. Seeburg found that being a Little LP producer and distributor was getting to be a. So they sold their catalog, inventory and distribution network to Robert. Garmisa at Garmisa Distributing who would set up a new company Garwin Sales to take over their. Billboard, 1. 02. Bobby Garmisa was enthusiastic. Little LPs would henceforth be released at the same time as the parent albums, not. Garmisa, it turned out, had underestimated the effect of problems such as a. Little LPs, and the ambivalence of the one stops to carrying the product, not to. Little LPs. By 1. Little LP hassles, Garmisa finally gave up. We thought it would be a. Garmisa later told. Billboard 82. 97. But even our best release only sold 5,0. We invested 8. 6 cents to 1 in each package, which. When Garmisa left the Little LP business, he sold the 1. Little LPs he had in the erstwhile Seeburg. WIND Chicago newsman Henry Baskin aka Bill Churchill, along with partner Reuben. Rube Lawrence. Baskin began offering this older stock at 5. Baskase Products. Baskins stock, including Little LPs from ColumbiaEpic. Soma, Bomar. Warner Bros., Atlantic, London, UA, Blue Note, Hilltop, and Reprise, was sold off piecemeal. By. February, 1. 97. Lawrence noted that they had peddled some 5. Little LPs overseas to the UK and. The zenith of the Little LP was the 1. By 1. 96. 9, however, with Garmisa exiting the. Little LPs dropped to nearly zero. A few small manufacturers, like Thunderbird and. Juke, issued some, but that was about it. For over a year, from 1. Little LPs for the big labels, and this marked the end. Little LPs. The Second Generation. In the spring of 1. Little LPs for the labels who wanted. This was the beginning of the second generation of Little LPs, a phase where many fewer Little. LPs were manufactured. Whereas in 1. 96. Little LPs were being issued per year, output. But the content shifted more toward rock music than during the first generation. One of these companies was run by Bernie Yudkofsky of Gold Mor distributing Co. In Englewood, NJ. Yudkofsky initially bought some of the stock from Baskase and started producing new releases for. ColumbiaEpic and LondonParrot he had 9 new releases by August, 1. Yudkofsky took a. Why should I do what was done years ago when the Little. LP program was ruined why should I flood the market By May, 1. Gold Mor had produced. Little LPs, then released four more Little LPs, this time from RCA, in August, 1. By January. 1. 97. Yudkofsky had released 5. Somewhat more active was Richard Pruttings Little LPs Unlimited, located in. Northfield, IL. Little LPs Unlimited had nine releases out by May, 1. Decca and Atlantic. August, 1. 97. 0, had brought out 1. Little LPs, manufacturing discs for Sun. International in addition to AtlanticCotillion and DeccaKapp. Little LPs Unlimited numbered their. They had reached 4.

While Yudkofsky felt the covers and labels should. LP cover, including being in full color, Prutting did not think color covers. Little LPs had monochrome covers from the start. The Gold Mor Little LPs for. Columbia and LondonParrot at this point also started using the normal LP labels example at left. Both were of the opinion, however, that big hits did not belong on Little LPs, because they were already. So the Little LP at left for Simon Garfunkels Bridge Over Troubled Water.
