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

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

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,

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-

Which camera should I choose?

In your budget the best you can do is a sony a6000, maybe a sony a6100 if you are lucky. Of course, buying new is out of the question. The camera you have can do 1/4000, doubt you even need that for seagulls, let alone walking people. Finding a lens that can deliver good results at the same focal le

Which camera should I choose?

Real professional cameras start at a much higher price point. What do you mean by "VERY fast camera"? You want basically everything. Speed, low light, rotating screen, "acts like mirrorless with dslr price point" and high resolution while not being a professional camera. Decide where you can comprom

reviews seems to show the image quality is very good In terms of the body, image quality is about the same among everything you're considering. the 'recipies' seem an interesting feature. With it having a default 13-33mm this seems more suited to my leaning towards a bit more landscape photography?

Sony announces the ZV-E10, an Alpha series APS-C mirrorless camera aimed at vloggers | Review by DPReview

Saw an overview on YouTube. This seems most compelling as an entry level camera, regardless of vlogging features. It has a lot of the features of the a6400 (and more not found on a6400), at a price less than the a6100. I guess you trade the EVF for them, but a lot of casual users were unlikely to us
