Alternative forum for Sony APSC?

Blood N Guts Murphy

Fuji users have a great alternative inhttps://www.fujix-forum.com/forums/-/listbut there seems to be nothing even remotely similar for Sony users. Or do you recommend anywhere?If there aren't any traditional forums, maybe something I haven't tried like a Reddit or a Facebook group?

Just do a search on A6000 or A6600 and a few will pop up.There is also a Sony forum on the Fred Miranda site.

May change, of course.

Likehttps://sonyalphacommunity.com/

I'm liking how dprevived.com is shaping up. They've mirrored DPR for their forum structure, and there is a Sony APSC section.It's bare-bones at the moment, but they already have over 500 members for the site, and I think the goal is to make it very comparable to the original DPR.Maybe we can talk Adveen into signing up over there and making some weekly threads.

I just joined with the same username. It took an avatar from another forum which is weird. Oh well....hope to see DPRevived thrive!

Almost no one younger than 35-40 uses it anymore.
