Hands on with the RED Raptor XE this week - AMA!

Terrible at taking photos, 0/10. The Sony A6000 beats this thing any day of the week.

Is this a good deal and good starter camera?

Honestly for $700 I would skip that and get something mirrorless. Camera gear is something I think is wise to buy used, because when it's time to upgrade, you don't lose your ass. For your purposes, especially the low light activities, I'd say grab a Sony A7 ii ($500-700ish) or A7 iii body ($700-$10

The problem IS the price. (rant)

Honestly the GR imo was never meant as an entry level camera. A used Sony a6000, Fuji X-T20 or even an R50 and anything along those lines are better to learn on, more intuitive, and versatile for someone trying to experiment and find their style.

Hilfe bei meiner ersten Kamerawahl

400€ reichen locker. Für den Anfang reicht doch zb auch eine Sony a6000. Schau mal bei Kleinanzeigen und kaufe etwas gebrauchtes mit Objektiv. Aber immer zum abholen und ausprobieren.

I’m a birder and want to take clearer photos than this; any camera suggestions?

You might have to push your budget a little, a used Sony a6000 & 55-210 for around £350-400. This will give you much better quality images.

What cheap, compact camera should I get as a reporter?

At that price, you’re still better off using your phone or upgrading your phone, unless you wanted to go the used mirrorless route. The other option, if you wanted to spend just a little more, would be, to get a used compact mirrorless camera but skip the kit lens and find a cheap smaller (but bette

Paul and Morgan are selling their camera 👀👀👀 let’s speculate

Those sonys are good cameras. I’ve had the a6000 since 2018 or so, and it’s such a workhorse. That said, I prefer the 30mm sigma lens, but I’m more often doing landscape and travel photography, not vlogging.

Kleine Digitalkamera für Reisen

Ein alter Sony A6000 mit 18-50 ist klein, wahrscheinlich günstig und du kannst gorßartige Bilder machen.

Talk me out of a potential mistake.........

This is my answer too. You already own a three lens kit. Drop the cash to rent the Sony and see if you fall in love with it. Embrace the fact that you want a camera that is based on not purely logic, but how it makes you feel when you edit the photos. There's nothing wrong with that. Pixel peeping a

Kamera für Neulinge

Ich finde eine sony a6000 gut als Anfänger Kamera. Kostet aber mit gutem Objektiv wahrscheinlich etwas mehr.
