For The Sony Users

I'm a Sony user myself with the A6000. Always thought about doing some vlogging in the future. I've also added a Sigma 16mm 1.4 (Great lens for vlogging). What's putting me off is the price of this lens.

Looks like the A6000 has been around for awhile, I'm thinking if you master the camera you have you can get a lot done.

I actually bought the Sony ZV-1 for about $750 right around 2022
I wanted the Sony ZV-E10 which came with a 16-50mm Lens,
but that camera wasn't available because of the chip shortage.

Thanks for this. New to cameras so this seems like a great place to start.

Dslrs are becoming extinct.

Mirrorless cameras have many advantages, including the ability to adapt lenses from other makers (Zeiss, Voigtlander, etc,) as well as old manual lenses (which are often better than current fantastic plastic alternatives). Also, the lack of a mirror means you can hand hold the camera when shooting at much longer shutter speeds than with a dslr. The main drawback is the absence of an optical (versus electronic) viewfinder.

Every major manufacture makes a camera similar to this.

I would recommend looking into Sony before making a purchase.

Sony makes the sensors for many other camera manufacturers. I have an old A7 mkII that is full frame (more than you need for youtube), but I love it because I am able to use manual lenses (CHEAP compared with new autofocus, generally speaking) from makers including Nikon, Zeiss, Voigtlander and Zuiko, all of which have their own unique imaging qualities.

I'm a Lumix guy...the G7 is still a great value for vloggers

This has been a go-to option for so long.
