Gallery: Walking Around New York City With a Php155K Camera

I recently went on a trip to New York City and it neighboring states for vacation. Before the trip, Sony Philippines lent us the Sony a7R II to test out which was one of the most anticipated compact cameras to be available in the market. On paper alone, the specs are impressive including the world’s first backside-illuminated full-frame sensor with 42.4 megapixels and an ISO sensitivity that could go as far up as 102400.

That’s about as far as I would go for its technical specs since we have the review here which includes a list of all its internal goodness if that’s what you’re looking for.

For this post, I just wanted to share some of the shots I got out of the Php154,999 camera without going through photoshop for retouches. The only processing these images received were resizing so they could be uploaded here for easy viewing.

I am not a professional photographer, nor is this a sponsored post.

Uploaded here is a total of 39 photos from the trip which are categorized in three general groups: Objects and Day Shots, People, and Night Shots.

It’s true when they say, “It’s not the bow and arrow, but the Indian.” Well, sometimes a good set of tools also help. This is definitely the case for the a7R II.

Planning your NYC vacation

New York City is one of the iconic places everyone should visit at least once. There’s something for everyone regardless of whether you’re into sports, pop culture, the arts, or shopping.

With so many things to see and do, it can be hard to know how to plan out your trip. That’s why NYC travel packages from NYCtrip.com can be your dream vacation. Perhaps this will be your first trip into the Big Apple. A First Time Visitor package gives you a taste of the sights, the food, and a show.

If you’ve been to the city before, maybe you’re looking to experience the high end a bit more with a stay in the Waldorf Astoria, dinner at Sardis and great seats to the Broadway show of your choice.

If you need a getaway with your girls, a Girl’s Night Out package will have you hitting the Sex in the City hot spots, mani/pedis, lunch at Sardis and a Chelsea Night Club tour. It’ll be a trip you and your gals will be reminiscing about for years to come.

Planning your own vacation can be an additional stress you don’t need to have. Consider a package deal that will have your accommodations, tours, show tickets and dinning locations all booked for you in advance. There will be no concerns about having to make reservations, figuring out where the hot spots are or how to get there, or winging things, hoping you’ll get to everything you want to see. Vacations should be as stress free as possible.
