I'm gonna be honest here. I bought my first ever camera few days ago and its the sony a6000. The only reason I bought it was your extensive videos about the sony a6000 and I'm loving every bit of the camera, and to top it all off, I got the sony 50mm F1.8 as well. So thankyou very much for providing helpful content to people like me 🙌
im trying to get into photography and this style of video felt really casual but also really like informative without overloading me with information. thank you for the video so much =D
More and more I understand that going out and shooting is so much more about how it makes you feel rather than how many amazing photos you take. If you had fun - thats all that matters. Everything else is an extra :)
the framing can too tight for practical use other than portraits, isn't it? I mostly use 16mm and 33mm for events, worried if the 50mm (75mm ff view) will not be useful for my use case
Definitely can be, but it also depends on the preference of the photographer. Some of my favorite photos I have taken with 85mm focal length as well as 100mm (telephoto lens) in LANDSCAPE photography. I like the ability to isolate the subject and all the distractions and long lenses help with that. But of course, an 85mm focal length is not as versatile as 50mm focal length
Hello, please, which lens should I buy? I have a 50mm 1.8 I thought it would be great. But I am disappointed because the usage is very limited. I can't get what I want into the lens. So I'm looking for a zoom lens for more universal use. The money is low and I don't know what to look for. Now my camera is lying in a drawer and I'm not in the mood for it at all, knowing how far I would have to be from things with 50mm.
I'm using mostly a Sony 50mm in combination with the brilliant Sigma 16mm 1.4. No reason for your camera to stay in the drawer, you just take some steps back, if that's the case
24 2.8 samyang is a great budget lens that is wider angle. They make a 1.8 too. The only reason i steer people from zoom lenses is because the aperture usually doesn't let in much light
Thanks for the video it's amazing. I recently bought a a6000 as a beginner but i wanna get better, i usually take nature, architectural photos and sometimes night shots. I only have the kit lens for now, any budget friendly lens recommendations under $350?
Thank you! Hmm, two options: 1. Upgrade your current lens to Tamron 17-70 f2.8 (try to find a used one) 2. Get a prime to mix things up. Sigma 30mm f1.4 is my favorite
Hello brother, I enjoy watching your a6000 videos. I have a question for you. I'm having trouble taking portraits in daylight with the A6000 and Sigma 30mm 1.4 combination. I love the blur at 1.4 aperture. Shutter 1/4000 and 1.4 aperture result in overexposure and purple fringing. I think I learned that I should use an Nd filter. Which filter would you recommend for this? There are many types of filters and their features vary. ?
I wouldn't do portraits in direct sunlight to begin with. It will be harsh looking and cause fringing like you said. If you still think you need an nd filter STC optics makes a drop in filter that goes between the lens and sensor so it works for any lens size. 3 stop should be fine or 6 stop if you are using flash or lighting in combo with natural light
Does the lack of stabilisation affect your photography? I am keen on this lens for the ZV E-10 and would want to use it for night photography. Would you recommend it?
Not that much to be honest, I dont shoot at night that often. It mostly affects videos if you shoot those. I would however better recommend Sigmas 30mm f1.4 or 56mm. The f1.4 is great help for low light
Sadly the 56mm is out of my budget! I'm worried that with the 30mm, I may have to move too close to the subjects/objects. I want to use a lens for night and street photography when I am in Japan. Is there another alternative lens similar or would the one in this video be the most reliable/affordable? I don't want to go above £300 for a lens as the ZV E-10 costs me £600 with a kit lens :)@@TomsJurjaks
Question from amateur: why do you underexpose by -0.5 in such conditions? Highlights from artificial light during night were too bright or it was sth else? It's easier to edit later? or that isolation you wrote about it is easier to achieve and photos are more 'moody' perhaps? Love these POV videos! Would be awesome to visit Porto one day and buy your time to shoot and learn :) (sometimes people offer such walks thru airbnb and similar sites)
Hey Jaqbus - a very fair question! The reason why I underexposed was because as you said, highlights were too bright. I wanted to focus on whats visible in the lit areas and didnt care losing some details in shadows. It is also possible that I forgot to turn it back on to 0.0 in some later shots 😅 And thanks for the kind words! It would be my pleasure to go out and shoot together! Im mostly south of Portugal though, but whenever I go to Porto, I take my camera with me. Its just so beautiful place 👌
🤷♂ well there is a bit of noise but Im glad you dont notice it too much. In general, I always tell people not to worry too much about high iso. As you saw, I was even shooting with ISO 5000. Better to get the shot with noise than not getting the shot at all.
@@TomsJurjaks I think it's great for street photography, as it allows you to get that ~ 85 mm equivalent. However, sometimes it is a little too tight for nature shots and sometimes portraits.
The filter you are applying makes the picture worse; you are saturating the image. You don't need to apply this filter, boss man. The original picture looks way better than when you apply the filter. I don't understand why you use this filter to saturate the picture in an attempt to make it better.
Hey buddy, I get this comment a lot. I do it because I like it, not because I need it. For me - that is an artistic expression. I always include the RAW photo for you to enjoy. Some people like the edited version, some dont, and thats totally fine that you dont. I am doing it for fun and to show people that through editing you can change the look and feel of the photo if thats what you want, not to make it "better". I hope you understand it! And thanks for watching the video buddy :)
@@TomsJurjaks Awesome, the filter is not making your picture better or sharper; it's doing the opposite. I hope you understand that. Thanks for the videos

Wonder why you didn't use Program Auto (P) Instead? So you can lower ISO. I personally find it better in low light situations
Also, what's the setup in this video please? thank you

Nothing makes me happier than knowing you truly enjoy your new kit. Cheers Hamza 💪
ngl, doin' street photography at night literally relaxing myself, especially if it's rainy. the vibe was so 🍃🤤
Thanks buddy! Thats why I shut up and didnt say a word haha, glad you liked it!
Thank you Toms, I love those a6000 videos reminding us we can make great results out of this 10 yo camera making it a joy to use !
Thanks a lot Razafiarison! Yeah this lil thing was (is) a beast 💪
I just received my Sony 50mm for my A6000. What a perfect video for some inspiration. Thank you
Oh thats so nice! Let me know what you think of that lens after testing it.
im trying to get into photography and this style of video felt really casual but also really like informative without overloading me with information. thank you for the video so much =D
So glad to hear that. Cheers
Love it when it’s weather like this. Amazing POV🙌

Thank you my friend!
You're definitely vibing in this video Toms!

See the pinned comment 🙃
@@TomsJurjaks Roger that 👍
I think i need to do more street photography at night time with Sony a6000
Highly suggested. Such a great feeling being out, casually walking around.....
@@TomsJurjaks thank you... Will do that soon

NTSC. Helps me unlock more framerates

How can you take ISO 2000 photo without noise 🤔🤔🤔🤔
🤷♂ well there is a bit of noise but Im glad you dont notice it too much. In general, I always tell people not to worry too much about high iso. As you saw, I was even shooting with ISO 5000. Better to get the shot with noise than not getting the shot at all.
addition to toms' comment, with all the current tech tools, you can generally reduce the noise without making the photo look fake/plastic
wow, this is my exact setup!
How are you enjoying it? You like the 50mm?
@@TomsJurjaks I think it's great for street photography, as it allows you to get that ~ 85 mm equivalent. However, sometimes it is a little too tight for nature shots and sometimes portraits.
Amazing shots!
How do you connect your phone to your A6000 like that?
Thank you! Check the pinned comment on top. I added a link to the video explaining how I do it :)
🔥🔥🔥🔥
💪
Hello, really nice shots!
Do you set your iso manually or on auto mode?
Thanks! I always set it manually. Thats why I was reviewing the images so often
maybe a6700 sigma 56 1.4 rain photography?
Im getting the A6700 for testing soon. Don't have the Sigma 56mm but it would be a great combo. I will see what I can come up with!
Need more
More coming 💪
