Hello, I’m looking at purchasing either the A6300 or A6500. I’m mainly going to be using the camera for travelling, landscape photography and doing some small bits of video. Is the price difference really worth the differences between these two cameras? Any recommendations would be great!

Hi I am looking for a lens that would start at 16-18mm and go up to 100-200mm for my sony nex. I identified the following: 18-105 - mixed opinions regarding sharpness; 18-200 (old silver) - very good opinions; 18-200 ( new black) - mixed opinion; Possibly 16-70z which is slighyly too short...

Sony A7 iii plus 28-70mm lens. Only £1,917 and due in stock on 3rd August https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-ILCE7M3KB-CEC-Mirrorless-Compact-SEL2870/dp/B07B4R8QGM/ref=sr_1_3?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1532543119&sr=1-3&keywords=Sony+a7

Wondering if anyone bought a mirrorless camera (e.g. a Sony A7X type) via Top Cashback at Jessops? If so, which option did you choose (since it only lists DSLRs and CSCs) and did it track and pay out the cashback okay? Looking to pre-order a Sony A7III and this looks like the cheapest option...

Hi guys and gals, I'm looking to move into the next level of mirrorless photography having done the rounds with full DSLR and then ditching all of that for Olympus - the ollies are fantastic little beasts but I am looking for something a bit more advanced having used the OMD E5 (MK 1) for a...

At risk of becoming even more confused....here goes. Some of you will be sick of me by now, hopefully this is nearing its conclusion :LOL::LOL:. I NEED to make a decision.....but I really am torn here. Background: Had the 7d, but after a while I fancied FF for landscape and wanted a compact...

I currently have a sony A7 and am thinking to upgrade to a a7ii for the ibis. my lenses are currently all A-Mount lenses and used with the LA-EA4 on the A7. Since my current set up does not have any image stabilisation, I have had some shaky shots. I take photos primarily and was wondering...

Hi there, Currently playing around with my kit set up. Primarily shooting landscape. Considering the following two options - what do people think... I have the Sony A7. Sony 16-35mm + Sony 50mm FE 1.8 Or Olympus 21mm/24mm + Sony 35mm 2.8 + Sony 28-70mm kit lens Opinions based purely on...

Hi all, New to this forum so hello from me. I am by no means a professional photographer. I spend my time capturing precious family moments and I also as a hobby like taking photo's of cycling events and motorbikes, mainly WSB and MotoGP. I purchased my first 'proper' camera a few years back...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has bought one of these and your initial thoughts on it? And any comparison against the Sony version if you may have had both. Reviews seem decent so far but real testing is lacking slightly IMO. In two minds as to whether to pay the £275 for this or fork out an...

So I have asked this question in some way or another a few times on a few threads but I have finally come to the day where I will make a final decision and hopefully stick by it. Thanks so much to all the people that have already contributed to my conundrum! These are my options - both similar...

I just got the A7 - first mirrorless camera - I just stuck the lens on (28-70) inside and tried the viewfinder inside the house, it looks flickery and not fully clear - is this normal or do I need to return it? The screen picture on the screen is fine. Is this standard with mirrorless?

All I know right now is I want a body that is lightweight to carry around, take high quality images and can do great photography and videography without it compromising the other. I know lenses matter more than the body, and I'm looking to invest in some great lenses as well. I want to shoot...

Hi all So I'd like advice on my first full frame camera. Let me give you some info to help.... I have a lot of experience with Nikon and like Nikon. I loved the D7000 when I had it. I currently have two Nikon lenses. A 50 1.8 and an 85 1.8. Sadly the latter is faulty but still of some use...

I have a problem when looking at my own work; are any of these clearly better than the others? These are from a quick walkabout during sunset yesterday. 1 DSC03261.jpg by Robert Clark, on Flickr 2 DSC03253.jpg by Robert Clark, on Flickr 3 DSC03238.jpg by Robert Clark, on Flickr 4...

Hey there guys! I have been in the photography world for 8 years now, and I have gained so much knowledge and developed a lot of skills. And I have yet to begin my video/cinematography career. I have taken a great interest in shooting wildlife, and from there, I have gotten the idea of shooting...

Hi all, I'm quite new to photography and I'm looking into buying a flash. I shoot with a sony a7s for filming so this is what I will be using for photography for now at least, can anyone help me out and recommend a flash they would think best suited for the a7s Any help massively...

Hi guys I'm an amateur photographer, I've been photographing with my Sony a6000 since November with a 3.5-5.6/18-55mm lens. Could somebody please advise me on the names of lenses that I can buy for this camera, and what they do exactly? The person I bought this camera from had a lens attached...

Hello, id really appreciate some help and advice. I want to buy my Dad a compact camera for Christmas and have narrowed it down to the panasonic TZ60 (US model ZS40). He has done a fair amount of photography in the past with both SLRs and DSLRs but is now getting to an age where he would like...

Must be the most photographed mountain in UK, but it was the first time for me. Got up at 0430 and drove 2h for the sunrise. The best light however was hitting the mountain around 1hr after the sunrise. The time was spent chatting to two other photographers. I welcome your comments.

Actually I'm from Kent, which is actually London's back garden! Though I did grow up in London. Anyways.... Hi guys and gals, my name is Wes and I'm a 39 year old father of five (yes 5). I live with my wife and 3 younger children 2 of whom (my 10 yr old daughter and 11yr old son) are both as...

https://www.dpreview.com/news/2453723213/sony-takes-the-wraps-off-of-its-alpha-a6500 I didn't think the A6300 had been out that long? Price-wise it will sandwich the Fuji X-T2 and Nikon D500. I don't think I will get it as I'd probably go for the X-T2 but the specs are certainly impressive.

Hello All, I am after some opinions please. I have been a long time Canon DSLR user, next year I am going on a long term trip to Australia and New Zealand, although I'd love to take my SLR with all my lenses space and weight are at a premium. I also plan to do plenty of hiking and exploring so...

Hey folks, I'm just returning to this forum, and photography, after a loooooong time away (during which I had kids - who knew they could be so time consuming?!) Anyway, there are a couple of reasons I'm back into the fray, firstly, with the little angels being slightly older, I have more time on...

Hi, I've been trying to sort out this issue for quite a while now, but haven never come to a firm decision. In September I am leaving for my Gap Year (I will be away from home for around 10 months) and want to take a camera. We are backpacking around South America, Australia and South East Asia...

Hi Guys, I've been trying out model photography since posting last and the images here were taken this week at my home and are of a non model friend and only my second time shooting a model. I'm looking for critique, comments and views on the images below based on the fact that I'm still very...

I've been using Nikon gear for years and have accumulated plenty of quality glass. I've sold my D700 35mm and 85mm so far. I've been contemplating going over to m43 initially, for weight reasons and quality glass from Olympus and Panaleica camp. I borrowed an E-M1 and M5 for the weekend and was...
