Thanks for this video & for being so concise & straight to the point!

I really love this channel. Your videos are right to the point, visually pleasing background, and your voice isn't bothersome to listen to at all! Great job all around!

For anyone sharing your frustration with accidentally manipulating the wheel while shooting, you can long press FN on the back of the camera to lock the wheel - and then long press FN again to unlock it. A really nice way to prevent this from happening and it quickly becomes second nature I think.

Fernando Pinales I am sorry but I don't have the A6000, so I can't give you a factual answer. but seeing that it works on the A6300 and A6500 I would think it works on the A6000 as well.

Love love love my a6500 with the 10-18. IBIS plus OSS plus a gimbal is SO smooth

Drinking game: Every time he says "this guy" take a shot.

The 6500 is such a nice looking piece of gear!

That a6500 is a beast nice video man have fun with it.

Awesome man! I have the Sony FE 20mm f2 to cover my midrange work

hey man the 55mm is my fave lens to, it's SUPER sharp. crazy sharp for photos

Hi, Im loving all of your videos about lenses and cameras. Its surprisingly sparked some interest in me. I'm actually fairly new and would love to read more about cameras and lenses and I guess photography as a whole. Do you have any great resources you can send me to read more about everything?

sigma 30 1.4 and sony 50 1.8 e mount are better choices on a budget. especially if you're sticking with apsc sensors in long run.

Cycling Dropout exactly. The Sigma 30mm is rated as one of the sharpest lenses for the Sony and that 50mm is just as good in the tests and reviews I have done and seen. Plus the cheaper 50mm have oss. I have the A6500 and the IBIS is a welcome feature but it doesn't replace IS in glass.

Nice, I use my A6300 exclusively for gimbal and I find the 10-18 and 35 1.8 OSS are a supurb combo.

Nice review!

I'm likely getting the a6300, but how well does the kit lens perform? Wanna get a basic but good system, but rather not pay so much $ for another lens

rocking the 18-105 right now... The 10-18 is the next purchase.

as usual, nothing is perfect but rather a compromise. It's great to make the camera ultra compact.

For aps-c I would go with 10-18mm, 18-105mm and the new FE 85mm f/1.8. Covers all the the zoom range + 1 pretty portrait lens. Im sure the Zeiss is much more expansive.

24mm 1.8 is awesome! you need to get it ASAP!

I had the 55mm 1.8 for my a6300 and LOVED it... I am on a budget so I wanted to get something that shot wider shots... As much as I loved that lens I probably wont go full frame until next year or so... So I traded it out for the 24mm 1.8 and im glad to see you guys love it too!

Jerry... love your videos... I almost have the exact same setup, but with the a6300. Sony 10-18, Sony 24 1.8, and the Sony 55 1.8. I also have the 30mm macro and the 55-210mm. You have to get the 24 1.8. I didn't start liking the Sony a6xxx series of cameras until I got the 24mm. I'm going to sell my 30mm because the 24 1.8 focuses so close, although not 1:1. Keep up the great work.

Great job on the your video - helped me out a lot. I do have a question, based on your advice I did purchase the Sony 10-18 lens for my A6500, and I was set on also getting the Zeiss 55mm based on your review. However, I did noticed in the comments you spoke very highly of the Zeiss 16-70. I am new to the world of Sony cameras so was wanting to know, since I already have the 10-18, would you still go for the 55mm as the next lens or is the 16-70 a better choice? What concerns me about the 16-70 is some of the reviews I have read say that it is not that great in terms of sharpness. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Keep up the great work!

im planning on buy (probably) the 6500 if budget allows but i would have to get a lens for using it thats allround (more video than photo). i was seeing the 55-210mm with OSS or 50mm f1.4. what would be a good all rounder from those two?. In worst case scenario i would have to go with the a6300 with the kit lenses even i will have issues with overheating (tropical zone from 82 to 92f [28-32c) at least]

I have a question: sould i record at 50p 28m or 60p 28m? More fps less datat right? Wich one is going to have bettter quality?

Great video you earned a subscriber.

I would also recommend the 35mm. Not a Zeiss or anything super flashy but great for intimate and wide shots and super clear. It cost less than most of the lenses recommended here.

I’m looking to buy a Sony camera and was wondering which you would recommend Sony A7 ii vs Sony a6500

What do you think of the Sony, Zeiss 16-70 mm instead of the 55 mm

Hey! What are you thoughts about the Sony Zeiss 16-70mm f4 ?

Hey man, whats the reason you use the a7sii in the studio and not as your run and gun? Like what does the a6500 have over the a7sii for run and gun?

wicked video man, love your work. I noticed you mentioned the 10-18mm was an APS-C lens - does this mean that if I bought an adapter and a canon APS-C lens the frame sizes would marry? I ask as I'm keen to keep my options open lens-wise, and because I haven't seen many people use Canon APSC lenses with the a6500. thanks!

What tv u got? Looks nice for the living room

Anybody have experience with the A6500 and 18-35 sigma verses the native Sony lenses ? I have the sigma along with A few rokinon primes all EF mount.

There is also a 50mm Sony F1.8 lense. Besides yours being full frame what's the difference. I want the APSC version just to save the money.

I really can't figure out what wide angle lenses are good for the Sony A6300 with IS, AF, a low F stop and preferably on the cheaper side and not too heavy. Everything seems to be missing either AF, or have a high F stop. I don't even mind adapting a Canon lens for it as long as the communication works.

Considering you loose pixels with that 55 lens, would be sharper the sigma 60 art?

Why did you buy the 55mm 1.8 if you already had the 50mm 1.4 zeiss? do you have 2 fifties?

What happened to the Zeiss 50mm 1.4? You chose the 55 over it?

i have the a6500 and i love it! my 3 lens currently are the sony 10-18, sony 18-105, and the sigma 30mm 1.4, i can cover almost any range and get a good portrait with decent bokeh with the sigma. i feel like a 50mm on an aps-c is too tight. although renders beautiful bokeh. i think the 30mm which is a 50mm equivalent is much more useful. none the less thanks for the video! very useful content keep it up!!

I would think that the FF 50 on a APSC/a6000-6500 would be the equivalent of a 80mm in 35 mm , that is the classic portrait lens. Too cramped for general use on 6000-6500? Any comments?

could you change the audio gain while recording on the a6500?

Also have the a6500 with the 10-18mm, but the distortion is really annoying. I don't think it's possible to make it as an all purpose lens. Do you film videos that aren't vlogs with it? or shoot stills? I'm debating which one to get for filming and stills without having the fish eye effect.

I went with the Sigma 19mm 2.8 for wide angle and Sony 35mm 1.8 for portrait. I do want the Sony 10-18mm though.

I use the Sony a6500 w/the 10-18mm, 24mm 1.8, and 50mm 1.8 Best lens choices I've used. I'm making a review on them on my channel right now Use the 50 most often, the 10-18 for vlogging, and the 24 less often, but critical if i need those wider shots without it being too wide and still cinematic looking.

that 55mm zonar lens just PnP or need to add adapter?

Hey there I was wondering what other lens is like the Sony 55mm but also zooms in and out or would you recommend this for portraits? I noticed on the lens description it dose not zoom. I like how it does the depth of field on other reviews. :)

I can't believe you like the fact that you have to put the SD card next to the battery. That's probably my most hated feature of this camera. It's incredibly hard to put in and take out the card with the battery in it. Other than that, the Sony a6500 is amazing and I love it... would you recommend the Sony 10-18mm over the Rokinon 12mm?

But doesn't the Zeiss 55 FFm , really only give a portrait equivalent of appx 82mm in 35 mm format? Not all that useful for all but close up portrait shots. And if the Zeiss is manual focus, I can handle that for most shots, but really want auto focus on portrait subjects eyes, nose etc if using as a portrait lens. Apart from portraits, what else would you use this lens for?

I think the best ist Sigma 56mm f1.4 it’s just the best on the market for the money.

Totally agree re: The background music. Loved this style more.

For vlogging, it's ok for getting some cheaper lenses, they will not destroy image quality that much. As long as getting a steady shot, enough lighting, clear voice and stay focus. Since we are watching it on a small screen ( who watch youtube every day on a 50" or bigger 4K TV?)...Many vloggers make very high-quality videos just using a compact camera (pocket camera). But for photographing, this sony 10-18 mm lens is too old, it's not sharp enough compare to those newer lenses. It's more worth to get the newer lens, 16-70, or 16-35 if you want to upgrade to a full-frame camera after. Even 19mm prime lens from Sigma is better. This 10-18 lens has one upside, which is the wide angle, that's it. Sony A6000 series have higher resolution, which worth to get a sharper, better lenses.

Mark Rudolph The Sony's 50 1.8 E mount also has optical image stabilization. In addition to that getting the expensive FF lense means you'll be losing quite few F-stpos = 1.8 X 1.5 = 2.7! A waste of money in my opinion unless you're planning on switching to FF later on.

Odu Oba Ara Well said, using ff glass on aps-c also crops the lens's "resolution" I believe, making the image softer. Chromatic aberrations and more are amplified 1.5 times too. There is a reason why there is aps-c glass for aps-c sensors haha

Mark Rudolph I disagree, first of all, the lens quality is the biggest determining factor for perceived resolution then followed by distortion correction. All of the resolution is captured on the sensor after the glass, the glass it's self has no finite resolution nor does anything in the real world. Sony has some really good glass and some really spot on lens distortion correction. The flaws you speak of, I have seen on Nikon and Cannon more than Sony. I used to shoot on Nikon, and using full frame glass on crop sensor could be hit or miss in raw quality. Similar with Cannon. The best solution being to drop the built in resolution of the camera so it crops closer to its center so details are much sharper. This doesn't seem to be the case with Sony nearly as much. I shoot with a FE 50MM 1.8 on my Sony APS-C sensor and the center left to right are tact sharp, better sharpness than my 50mm crop lens built for the sensor. where it gets slightly softer is on the very far frame edges where focal plane distortion is the greatest even than sony's built in lens distortion correction is spot on, and makes that section comparable to the APS-C 50mm 1.8.

In all comparison between, there is almost no difference between 6500 and 6300. All heating issues are fixed with firmware update, same AF points, IBIS doesn't work as it people thought it would. Therefore, I decided to get 6300 and save 500 Euros here in Germany. I can use that money to get sigma lens.
