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 525mm enough for wildlife? Is Sony E mount (APSC) a future-proof mount?

2: Sony is a very future proof mount - more so than M4/3 certainly. Broadly there is no reason to expect any current mount to go away except for financial reasons, and as Sony E is the most used mirrorless mount it is the least likely to go away. 1: Your bigger limitation will likely be the a6000's

Camera for beginning sports photography

The issue is the range you’ll get. I shoot with the Sony a6100 which is the entry level mirorless. But I then use a Tamron 150-500 or a 70-180 depending on the lighting. The lens are more expensive then my camera. If you go for a Black Friday deal on the Sony a6100 + used f/4 lens you might get a be

My Paris trip in July

If I had to start over with a limited budget I'd probably get a Sony alpha 6100, or if budget allows, the 6400. Both have interchangeable lens and will last you a long time. They also come with decent lens included, great for beginners to learn! But honestly, Nikon, Sony, Canon all have some great b

Official Gear Purchasing and Troubleshooting Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! October 31, 2025

If this your first time buying and using a camera, I would probably spend less on it and see if you would like it before dropping that much money on it. You can buy a Canon R50/Sony a6100 + Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 for around $1000-$1100 used and the kit will perform amazing without needing to buy a full-

looking for my first setup as a beginner

I think the best compromise of having reach, quality and usable AF would be the a6100 and the Sony 70-350 bought used. Will be a bit more than your budget but a solid setup for the first few years and will give you aproximately 520mm reach. You can upgrade the body anytime and you can keep the lens

Deinfluence me from getting the canon g7x mark ii or iii

Don't get me wrong a real camera still takes better pictures than your phone. But they are much less convenient. The camera itself is bigger and objectively a less versatile device than your phone. So it's harder to justify taking with you "just in case". And getting photos off a camera is more time

Any tips for THE camera?

So a Full-Frame sensor is equivalent to a 35mm film camera. Crop Sensors are everything smaller than that, and have a crop factor that needs to be applied to understand the 35mm equivalent focal lengths of lenses. APS-C is a 1.5x crop sensor. So the sensor is about 75% the size of Full Frame. These
