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

Does not going full-frame kneecap my business potential?

While I think the a6100 is going to bottleneck you a bit (it's simply not modern, it's slow, events need you to react fast, the battery is small, it's built with mostly plastic, there's only one card slot), I do think you can try out newer photo editing tools. I swear the modern AI denoise tools I h

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,

first paid gig

I loved my Sony a6100. I used it for years and years and years for shows. I shot the first 5 new friends fests on it. I shot my first few album covers on it too. The body is incredible and you can find a good 28mm or 50mm lens for it for cheap. My sigma 28mm f/2.8 was only $140 used.

First camera?

If you’re coming from a phone and mostly shooting nature, I’d look at an entry level mirrorless kit like a Canon R50, Sony a6100, or Nikon Z50 with the kit lens. All of those are solid for beginners, good autofocus, and way more range than a phone. Later you can add a telephoto zoom for wildlife or

Red Dot Sight Mount for my Telephoto Camera Lens

I can share the design but I need to share it as a parametric model. I designed it in SolidWorks, I need to remodel it in Onshape before sharing. I have reasons to think STL is inappropriate for this design: First, I am on a APS-C body, the a6600 specifically. If you compared the a6600 vs the a6400

Direction of the Fujifilm as a company / system

Glad it works for You! I prefer the sturdy tanky feel of camera. Just preference I guess :) I am also a big dude with big hands, used to shoot with a6100 but it was borderline unusable for ergonomics perspective 😅
