Is the Sony a6300 worth buying in 2024?

Hey i was planning on getting this with a new lens. What would you recommend? im currently thinking between the sony 16-55 f2.8 and the tamron 17-70 f2.8

[@cwqmedia]

The Tamron is the cheaper option, and from looking at a few reviews there doesn't seem to much difference in optical quality between the two lenses, making the Tamron better value for money. Me personally I like the Sony lenses just for the best software support and hassle free experience being that Sony make the cameras and the lenses. I am biased as I prefer to use Sony lenses over 3rd party lenses but the Tamron for the price to performance standpoint does offer quite a bit.

I just bought my a6300 from goodwill for $450. I got the Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 DNii, the auto focus is fast and the lens is sharp.

Hey,Im thinking about getting one I am a somewhat begginer and 6300 seems like a good option for around 450€(500$) used ,i want to do photography and maybe some video.is it worth it? And what budget lenses are good?

[@cwqmedia]

For photography the a6300 is still a fantastic camera, for video work I would highly recommend getting a Sony lens with OSS (Optical SteadyShot) just for the stabilisation in video as the camera doesn’t have in body stabilisation. As for budget lenses, I highly recommend the Sony 18-105G f4 lens as it’s just wide enough for vlogging but also has a good amount of zoom for photography. The Sony 35mm f1.8 is fantastic for photography, especially for portraits. The kit lens (16-50 f3.5) is good enough for both photography and video work and is cheap enough when busing a used one. The lens isn’t perfect but for the versatility of the wide 16mm to the short zoom of 50mm it’s a good all round lens and is small and lightweight enough for travel ect ect. Hopefully this helps!

Hey I have Sony a6300 for videography and Sony a7ii for photography I got as new both of them and I use Sony 50mm 1.8 and Sony 18-105 and Sony 24-70 Which one you should recommend for video please ?

[@cwqmedia]

For video I personally would recommend the 18-105 G, the 18mm is good for wide video shots but depending on the situation the 105mm is very versatile. I've made a video on the Sony 18-105 G so be sure to check that out if you want anymore info.
