Re: A6000, what else do I need to start?

16mm on a crop sensor is in a bit of no mans land.   It's not WA, letting you get within a couple feet of a broad coral, unless coupled to a wide angle wet port, and it's not close enough for small work.   Your 30 (45mm equil) is probably the shortest with potential for close work.

For large objects - mantas, sharks that won't come too close, it could work, but it's not the one I'd buy a port for.  If you go to backscatter, you can see a list of lenses it recommends for the A6000, and the corresponding port recommendations.
