I tested sony 55 against sigma 56 1.4 on my a6500 and it was not even close. the sony is not as sharp, but the main issue is the CA. its horrible on the 55 (tried 2 copies) and almost non existent ...

I have zero problems with the focus speed with my a6500. Been shooting many fast moveing objects with no problem (including dogs and yes I somehow managed to get the eye in focus). The ibis is far ...

Thats good, but it looks worst on the right side. Check for decentering just in case.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIsv_owtXx4 The guy compares Canon EOS R, Fuji X-T3, Sony a7R3, and Sony a6500 His last sentence: "If you can't get good images out of any of these modern cameras, ...

Buying a camera in 2019 with no ibis makes no sense to me. That is unless you are absolutelly certain that you have a very specific need for it which does not require ibis. Why would you limit ...

I like it (in the op). I disagree with the others. Any further brightening of the foreground will make it too hdr-ish. Maybe good for some, but certainly not for me. Good job.

Yep sigma 16 is superb. Initially I was not overly enthusiastic about this FL, but then I watched some videos of how it can be used. I love it now :) Now you need that sigma 56 1.4. These 2 are must :)

That is exactly my experience. Sigma 56 1.4 is an amazing lens. Sigma 30 1.4 (after the firmware update) focus just about as good. However at 1,4 the 30 has lots of CA, so I aways remember to be ...

Definitelly sigma 16 1.4. I am back from a holiday and just took sigma 16 and sigma 56 1.4. I used the 16 90% of the time. Yesterday I reviewed the images I took and was super happy with the ...

I cannot speak for tqlla, but I dont think he wants "flagship camera" for under a grand. He wants a better sensor for under or around a grand. Many people ware shocked that we now have 3rd gen FF ...

agree very personal and subjective. Although I am really surprised you find them yellow :) did you actually try them or you judge by the samples in the video?  anyway this is out of topic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZShdjAfuaM For quick sharing with friends/family, I love these settings. they are for a7iii, but I use them with my a6500. you can further tweak them if needed.

A6500 with the new sigma 56 1.4 is also very nice and compact. I am coming from rx100 and a6500 is definitely the max weight/size I would be comfortable with. I kind of learned to (or accepted the ...

I was considering a7iii, but then I went to a local shop and hold it with 24-105.. there is no way I am going out with this thing. way too big and heavy. If I am a paid photographer, that would be ...

I think you have a point. The difference between FF and APSC (for the same generation) should be about one stop. Currently its 2 stops i.e. a7III and a6400. A6400 is entry-mid level 3rd gen and ...

+1 this would be very usefull and easy to implement

+1 hope for improved apsc or even better, full frame sensor in A6xx body. Apsc camera size should remain considerably smaller than ff. If I have to buy today (i.e. cannot wait) I would get a6500. ...

+1 hope sony keep it 24mp + better (bsi) sensor with better ibis in small (a6xxx) package.

Well the CA from zeiss 55 is soo bad and often inposible to remove (forget about the auto correction in lightroom). no need to pixel peep either, its very obvious. Here is one example ...

Hi, I am just curious what do you like about zeiss 55 1.8? I tryed 2 copies of that lens and they both had serious issues with CA (or purple fringing not sure what is the diff). I really wanted to ...
