Ah man, I'm so glad that you are open for feedback and have included the ISO, FL and SS back in the pics! Cheers mate :) Please also review the A6700 so we can see if it is worth an upgrade from older A6xxx cameras, I think that would be a popular video.

Yea it’s good, similar image quality but if you’re specifically worried about things like sharpness or consider yourself a so-called “Pixel Peeper” then make sure to watch some detailed reviews on the lens that focus more on image quality e.g. Arthur R Though I will say that if the images in this vid were good enough for you there is your answer ;)

Hmmm the high aperture may mean that you can’t use super fast shutter speeds, especially when lighting isn’t the best. That means you may struggle to have a fast enough shutter speed to “freeze” the motion of fast moving athletes. Ideally you have a telephoto with F2.8 fixed aperture but that’s gna be $$$

Yes because I love zooming, I compare them in my Tamron 17-70 review video I like the extra 20mm a LOT and am willing to pay the extra money for it. Especially as it becomes 24-105mm after the 1.5x crop factor for APSC
