Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast

[Braineack]

After taking the most ridiculous train to Sorrento [Naples is so sketchy], we were greeted to a fabulous little town full of Limoncello.

First stop was pizza for lunch where I found my favorite so far on this planet. We liked it so much we ate there two more times.

The town is small, and streets are small but FULL of merchants and shops:

Well Done, they all are very nice with great color, clarity and Image quality.To many to pick favorites but will say what a crust on that pizza now thats a pie.Love to bring that picture In some of the restaurants around my way and ask if they remember how to make a pie like this but i might not ever been seen again.

There's a Pete's New Haven Style Pizza around here. Do Not Want.

I'm lucky that there's a place called Puppatella in my area, it's CLOSE but not quite the same.

Some very nice shots, and all interesting. Are these taken with the a6000? I remember you saying you bought it for trips like this. And if so, is that the kit lens? (I'm hoping it is!)

These places I could visit!

Yup, entire trip was a6000 with kit lens. It performed very well -- but I still kinda wish I splurged on a nicer piece of glass like the 20mm 2.8 "pancake". I'd say the majority of the shots are taken at 16mm.

There's no min. shutter speed option on the a6000 which is annoying, as it always wants to try to shoot at 1/60sec in most situations before dropping ISO. So there's a good number of shots that aren't quite as sharp as I'd hope, but otherwise, despite all the stuff I mentioned in my other thread ( I think the Venice one) I was pretty darn happy with it.

A small number of shots are from my Galaxy phone as well.
