Thanks for the rundown. Just bought this camera for vlogging. The salesperson warned me that coming from Canon and Nikon the menus might be daunting.

EXCELLENT video! Thank you. Carefully and thoughtfully organized and packed with info. Sadly, I'm in over my head. LOL. I just bought this camera and I'm new to shooting. I'm now realizing anything more than my Pixel phone camera is going to kick my ass. Eeek!
At 2:05 he is still at Manual M section for his setting and in single shooting mode. Also during the rest don't go to panorama as he says otherwise your settings will go Grey.
I got my new A6100 . This vid is just briliant and so helpfull. thank you!

Hey Jason, thanks for the vid! which lens would you recommend for beauty vids?
Make a cinematic video using a6100 :)
Thanks Jason that was super helpful ! I just purchased the a6100 and everything you mention at the end of the video for add ons and accessories I had purchased already with out a reference I just thought that was super cool. When I bought my camera I also purchased the G-Series 70-350mm and Im just having little trouble getting used to it can you point me in the right direction to get to know my lens better ? Thanks again Jason for a great video I learned so many important things about my camera ! Albert Conone,
thank you so much

Hey, huge video and for timecodes, I think you should to add 00:00 intro to make appear others on the video bar !
... great Jason! Helps me to setup my a6600 also! And isnˋt the 16-55/ f 2.8 a great lens to pair with the a6.x00-cameras? 😎
Thanks a lot
Thank you so much! I have bought this camera and I am actually dissapointed😢 my pictures come really bad quality. I’ve followed your steps
Dude your videos are great lol. So you think that the 10-18mm is better than using the Sigma 16mm for vlogging?
Wau, that was so helpful video. Now I know exactly what I have to buy with all extras. Like+Subscribe.
Thanks for this great video from a GREAT TEACHER. I want to use this camera as my main camera for wedding video. Will the Sony 18-135mm lens give me good picture quality for a start?
I'm a little late to the party, but thanks man!

Never too late! a6100 is still amazing!
cool video
Wow thanks, great videos and chanel! Here from the Netherlands. At 10:58 you combine the exposure compensation with a min/max? I do not have this setting on my 6100 is there any way to set this?
:) nice video, what's the cheapest A6xx model with video EyeAF feature? :) NO auto-iso min and max settings for video instead using AV range?
Hey Jason!!. Mate just a question, is there any way to set "owners name/photographer name" into the camera as you guys has this option on Sony a7 series? @Jason Vong
Can you please do a video about filters. Canon got a sliding mechanism I think. Will it be able to use in crop sensor camera? Canon 600D 😊 Thanks 👍
