[English CC] Recommended Lenses in the $1000 Range - Upgrade from Kit Lens Strategy, SONY E-Mount

In recent years, the number of Sony E-Mount users has increased dramatically. Among them, many continue to use the kit lens that came with their purchase. Kit lenses, being inexpensive and offering a convenient range of angles, are perfect for those who are still exploring what they want to capture. However, as one’s eye for photography develops and their subject matter becomes more defined, the quality of these lenses may start to feel insufficient. Yet, the idea of immediately upgrading to lenses costing 200,000 or 300,000 yen can be daunting.
This is why, in this video, I will introduce four fantastic lenses that can be acquired in the 100,000 yen range, all of which I have personally used. I will showcase them alongside photos taken with each lens.
