New York Times photographer Doug Mills switched to the Sony a9 after Sony let him demo the camera in Washington. He feels that it gives him a competitive advantage while working, because other photographers don’t know when he is shooting and as a result do not know what he is shooting. In this video interview with CSPAN he discusses his switch and some photos he was able to capture that others missed because of his use of the Sony a9. Previously Doug Mills Shot Canon all his life, but now he’s hooked on Sony and says the quality is fantastic.

The Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS is ideal for shooting events like the Olympics and it even looks like there might be a teleconverter on this lens if you look closely. It’s also very likely that the photographer is using the Sony a9 so the combination here is probably the Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS + 1.4xTC on a Sony a9 with grip and I bet Sony would like to have a bunch of these in photographers hands by the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Fujifilm also has high-end end telephoto glass coming in time for Tokyo along with a Sony a9 like camera, the Fujifilm X-T3, so maybe both companies will make a big push at the 2020 Olympics.
