I’m convinced…

I was invited to a few events over the past year. I probably won’t be invited back because I just can’t make content off products I don’t personally enjoy. I’m a Fuji lover myself with plenty of cameras from them. I think the XH2S is the best hybrid camera on the market. The x100 line is always fun

Is it worth going with the EOS R50 over the EOS R100?

It depends on what you want to do, how much you might spend in the future, and if you are okay with buying used: The a6100 is a very similar camera to the R50 - both of them have a plastic body, good autofocus, decent video, and very similar image quality. The design of the body is different of cour

Hello am looking to buy my first lens as a beginner videographer and I was looking for used lenses and I saw this 2 they both are 400 dollars and I was wondering which one should I go with am planning to use it for mostly short films, car video, food videos and for personal vacation. Cam: Sony a6100

The Tamron 28-75 is an INCREDIBLE lens. 100% go for that one. I use it regularly. If I had to choose just 1 lens to work with for a whole day of shooting, it would be that one (and have done). Autofocus is very fast and responsive on it too, if you’re using it with a Sony (not sure about your model

Good quality cameras for ant keepers?

Apexel 100mm macro lens, you can get it off aliexpress for like $15 but will take a while to ship. great quality, unless you're looking for professional equipment, that will be enough. As for cameras, really any body (actual camera) will do. I use a sony a6100, expensive and over-the-top for macro,

How do you become m43 user?

I shot, in order, Nikon APS-C, Nikon Full Frame, Sony APS-C, M43. My first "serious" camera was a Nikon D3100. I loved it and found myself finding reasons to take it out as much as I could as I was learning the basics. I upgraded to D5200 and eventually to a D810 when I decided I wanted to give full

Is this the right time to buy a m43 system?

I love m43 system, but no, it would be foolish to do so these days (with a few exceptions) You can find cheaper and better camera and lenses, new or used. Take a Sony A6100, it smokes everything m43 by a mile except the OM-1 and G9 II in some areas and it's dirt cheap. Autofocus, video, fps, senzor,

The Sony a6100/a6400 would definitely be the better body but the lens is as or even more important than the body. Getting the Sony a6000 would allow for you to have more room for a better lens which I would recommend. The Canon R100 is really the bottom-of-the-barrel camera and I wouldn't recommend

What Camera is Best for Me?

Yeah, with that in mind, it might be better to get the a6100 and use the extra amount to get another lens to go with it. If you get both used you could get the a6100 and the Sony 18-135 OSS lens for a little over your budget. Or you could get the 35mm OSS prime for under budget, and that paired with

Does anyone have any camera recommendations for a biginner like me?

Go either older fuji or Sony apsc Fuji will have nice sooc jpegs and Sony will have noticeably better AF and both will have good lens selection including 2nd hand market For both there's very good Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 DC DN which is really nice quality lens and it's reasonably priced For Sony I would
