With the TC, I am limited to f8 or f9 depending on the lens, and I try to use nothing slower than 1/1000 with 1/2000 or higher preferred.

I set the aperture and shutter speed manually and leave the ISO in Auto and let the camera decide....

For landscapes I prefer my Fuji set up as it is much smaller and easier to carry or hang around my neck....
Thanks Itsed,

I am a new owner of a Sony A7c, and should have my Fuji x1oov back soon after it showed that 'water resistant', or whatever they claim, means little. I have three prime lenses for the Sony (25mm2f Zeiss, 50mm2.8f Sony Zeiss, & 85mm1.8f Sony).

For landscape & animals (dogs), someone long ago told me to use speed priority, set to as low as possible, so the aperture (& now ISO) can be optimized by the camera, those being on auto (Pentax Super Program). I want to change that! Many of my shots are in early morning light, or deep forest.

PS: I clicked over to the Flickr site; thanks, that's the info I need. I thought you had one of those 48mp cameras. G & GM lenses!
