- its rules on Reddit
Reddit's most popular camera brand-specific subreddit! We are an unofficial community of users of the Sony Alpha brand and related gear.
What its rules say about promotion
No "For Sale" Posts, Screenshots, or Pricing Questions
Do not make posts offering to sell any gear. Do not post screenshots of any online retailer, auction site, classified adverts, or gear offer, included but not limited to "good deals" for used gear. Bragging about prices you found for used gear also is not welcomed. Pricing for new gear is standardized and is easily found via internet search. Use r/photomarket for all your buying and selling needs, not this subreddit.
All 8 rules of r/SonyAlpha
- Posts must be about Sony Alphas
All posts in our subreddit must be about Sony Alpha cameras and items that are specific to the Sony Alpha mounts. Questions about topics such as tripods, camera bags, filters, or other camera systems are best addressed on other subreddits such as r/askphotography or r/cameras. - One (1) Image or Video Post per Day
Please post just one image or video thread per day. Posting multiple images within that thread is certainly fine. Photos and video posted must be taken with a Sony Alpha, a RX series camera, or a legacy Minolta A-mount body. - Include Gear Info in Post Title
Labeling the camera body and lens used helps drive discussion. If you forget when creating your post, either delete and repost or add the gear info as a comment. - No "For Sale" Posts, Screenshots, or Pricing Questions
Do not make posts offering to sell any gear. Do not post screenshots of any online retailer, auction site, classified adverts, or gear offer, included but not limited to "good deals" for used gear. Bragging about prices you found for used gear also is not welcomed. Pricing for new gear is standardized and is easily found via internet search. Use r/photomarket for all your buying and selling needs, not this subreddit. - Safe For Work (SFW) Content Only
We are a family-friendly subreddit. Marking posts as NSFW just for attention is not appreciated. - No Spam
Blatant linking to youtube channels, instagram accounts, or other social media avenues will be deleted. Posting duplicate content to multiple subreddits at the same time as r/SonyAlpha also counts as spam. - Be Kind to Each Other in Comments
Demonstrate respect for others in your posts and comments. We welcome Alphas of all experience levels to contribute to this subreddit. - Use the flairs correctly!
Proper flair use correlates with sharper photos and more dynamic range. Please assign flairs accurately.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
