Should I change my Sony ZV-1F with A6000?

The low light performance of 6700 is not better!

thanks alot

it is not usable in latest firmware. feiyutech changed logic of gimbal control. It is not centered automatically. Support told me that it is new logic of control which differs from the management logic in gimbals other companies. I cannot use scorp 2 with new firmware. Cannot sell it. It turned into trash

I changed from a Canon 5D MKII full frame to a Sony a6400 for the sake of my back and traveling but I missed full frame. Now with the a7cii, this gives me a way to stay with a small body but back to full frame. With this in mind, would this upgrade be worth it?

I have both cameras: my brother's Sony a6700 and my own Sony a7 IV. My zoom lens (Tamron 28-75) is broken, so I'm currently using my brother's Tamron 17-70 lens. I'm planning a skiing vacation where I want to capture some action shots. Should I use the 17-70mm lens in crop mode on the a7 IV or mount it on the a6700? Which setup would produce better photos?

Why goodbuy i just bought it? I paired it with FE 1.8/50mm full frame lense, was that lense a mistake or not?

Currently, (Dec 2024) the A7IV is going for $100 less than the A7CII. IMO, the A7CII is overpriced and should probably be only $300 more than the A6700, and the A6700 should be about $200 cheaper than it currently is. I'd also state that I have the original A7C, but I'm likely selling it and going back to APS-C. I haven't bought a lot of lenses for it due to the prices involved for what I want, and the lens size/weight on the APS-C lenses is just more attractive to me for what I need, which is portability. Your video sort of helped me organize my thoughts on this and helped me make up my mind. Subscribed.

How to display leveling gauge on sony a6000?

Nice video, really interesting thoughts, thanks for running such extensive tests! My budgets lower but considering the same move; currently have A6400 & can't stop thinking about trading up to original A7C or A7iii... Can't make my mind up, even after watching this video!

please keep using the Sony a6000 , I use a Sony a6000 as well

I have the A7CR and cant travel with 2 prime and is perfect with the Crop capacity

I thought there would be no change to using the Sony LUTs but boy oh boy does this look a LOT better as a base correction before diving in. How isn't this up front and center in Premiere???

The 24-105 really needs updated at this point, it’s probably okay on lower megapixel bodies… Hope they make a new version that does well on a 61+ mp body, and it would be cool if they extended the range to 24-120 like Nikon (but only if they can do it without sacrificing image quality) - I’ll probably be buying the 24-70 GM II as well, even though it’s annoyingly expensive… OR I might just move over to medium format 100+ mp cameras/lenses if I am going to be dropping that much money anyway… 🙄

🙏🙂 thanks so much 👍🙋

Cool

How did you connect your phone as an external display?

I bought 1 after watching this video.. the quality of this lens for the price is superb

I just bought the a6000 used again 😊

horrible stabilization. i dont like it

thanks for sharing this! I get my setup now!

What I think is lacking is most people are going to buy these for commercial music videos or short film I would have love to see more shorts in the review because I’m looking to invest in 75mm and the 100mm to complete my line up I love that you made a short then just some one walking on shots of grass

A company like Sirui should over-allocate resources to improving autofocus, and try to solve this FIRST before developing a lens lineup. They suffer from years of negative reputation and it takes a long time to work past that stigma..before people stop being afraid of the company's autofocus. I just asked a few photographers and videographers if they will consider a Sirui or TTArtisan or 7Artisan and they all said the same thing *"too afraid of the autofocus"*

I use this for weddings mostly because it’s light and the 55mm focal length is something I’m comfortable with.

This Meike lens looks great, especially with its metal build. It kind of reminds me of TTArtisan’s lenses-I’ve been using their 50mm f/1.2, and it’s such a fun lens for creative shots. Would love to see them release more Pro lenses like this!

Thanks

About the grass..!? Could it be, that you are on the lens' closest distance limit. And that a smaller (higher) aperture could decreas the limit in cm and therefore show a sharper photo when increase it from 1,8 to 4..???

I tried the back button focus but I encounter one problem: my setting for reviewing the pics is to go to the point of focus (so I can see immediately if the focus was correct) but when using back button focus, that review/zoom point is it on the point where I did the back button focus but instead the centre of the frame. Sony a6700

Hi, I come back to your videos from time to time and today I changed something in the settings in a6000 and when taking a single photo in AF-S mode the shutter makes 2 movements, previously there was one... any suggestion... it distracts me... I don't know why the shutter makes it like that... help ;)

Hi, Tom, sorry I came bit late , But I found your explanation is the best one , My question is - would you reckon this lens to use with sony a5100 camera ? coz I rather like to upgrade lens than camera due to tight budgets, many thanks .

Ok, A7C2 now cost 1950€ and A6700 cost 1450€. Thanks for advice, man, but 500€ doesn't worth to get crop instead of FF.

I'm a recent sub. I enjoy your content and delivery. Thanks.

Great video! Thanks for the comparison!

24-105 was my first ever zoom lens. I think what most people don’t realize they are missing with a 24-70 is the 85mm FL… 70mm I don’t feel is tele enough to get great compression for portraits. 24-70 F2.8 is my most used standard zoom today but I just feel like it has no soul. The one I am waiting for is the 24-200 F2.8-F4 G that has been rumored - but I don’t do video… if I did I would be tempted by the 20-70mm F4

I sold it a while ago and never looked back. There was nothing wrong with it. It was just so mediocre and not exciting.

Just an ad…

I have this lens with a few of other very good and top of the range lenses. But this one is a mega surprise for this money.👍👍👍

Can you provide th link to the focus setting video please?

Hi, thanks of the great video! But I don't understand the benefit of the back button focusing. You say that as long as you hold the AF button it will focus...so what's the difference with that and half press on the shutter button? I must not be understanding some important difference 🙂

It's not easy to balance this gimbal because the sliding plates take a lot of force to move so if you're a person with multiple configurations in body and lens, go get another gimbal that's easier to balance

I love the 24-105! I do mainly run and gun video. This lens is the perfect partner for my FX3!

I can’t get this quality of pictures with my a6000 camera 📷, how do you do that?

I'm a hobbyist and i was thinking on ditching my 7 Minolta lenses for a 24-70, a 70-200 and a 200-600 (g Master line) but after testing so many lenses I've decided to stick with Sigma. Nowadays they're basically Black G Master II lenses, I dislike Sony's 30% extra money you have to pay because of the brand's ambassador and influencer campaigns. The A1 II was the last nail in the coffin for me. It's a rancid cult. Got me a Sigma 70-200 DG DN OS and I found zero complaints about it. It seems to be a fresh batch because it's parfocal, has no yellow tint and has no OSS trepidation, such were the complaints about sponsor reviewers. I had so much fun with the Minolta 80-200 G HS APO on A77II but Sony did a duck move with the adapters. You won't get quick autofocus with PDAF on adapters if you use anything that is not a Sony G SSM lens.

I must say I really like 24-105 mainly because it let's you to understand what range you like mainly to work in as beginner photographer/videographer. Absoulute best as travel lens - gives so many options. While extension of barrel can be annoying at times of filming on gimbal and in some other scenarios, I think that sharpness makes up for it. One of the absolute best lenses to start Sony full frame journey with. What it helped me to understand is that I want 135mm prime for evening street photography (already have 55mm 1.8 zeiss which I love) as I really work in extended range most of the time on that 24-105. I'm thinking on moving towards Sony 2.8 70-200 or Tamron 35-150 2, 2.8 - I wonder which one is better there. Kind of feels like Tamron is mostly for photography no?

Hi, In Amazon I see that for the pro version you have a 27.6L and a 31.1L version, which size were you showing in the video, I am considering it but not sure if 31.1L would be too big. Thanks in advance.

I sold my 24-105 a year ago and bought the 20-70 f4 G. 20 was more important than 105 since I have a 70-200 also. And the 20-70 have aperture ring, is smaller and sharper.

Think about Tamron g2 duo, 28-75 and 70-180
