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.

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.

My 16 year old daughter wants a nice camera!!?? *HELP*

I think the best option here would be a Sony a6000 they’re great cheap cameras and use Sony enough so have room for lens upgrades if you just buy it with the kit lens This is a example of what the a6000 is capable of this is just with the cheap Sony 55-210mm lens aswell I took this at a airshow earl

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.

Should i start my journey solo or with a company?

the catch is that this job would pay dirt (15$-30$ an hour max 16 hours a week) and i’m not guaranteed any solid schedule, they offer gear though so i don’t have to worry about losing the camera from my current job. My daughter is 12 years old and makes $20 an hour babysitting kids in the neighborho

Should I get a secondhand a6000

I picked up an a6000 myself as a first "real camera" last month. Purchased for $429 from MPB.com, condition listed as "good," but I've had zero complaints. It came with a charger and battery. Bought my own bag, SD card, tripod, etc. Paired with a viltrox 25mm f/1.7 and a Sony 18-55mm zoom lens. I've

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.
