My a6700 just arrived. I am now uncovering all its capabilities. Gonna take a while to learn everything, but one thing for sure, it takes great pictures. I threw on my 10-20mm f4 lens and hunted around town for something worth photographing. Found a torn-up advert flag, grabbed a photo and did some peeking. Man, it did not disappoint. Both camera and lens produced a remarkably sharp image. It rivals my A7R3. Now on to figuring out all those video settings. BTW, while talking about cameras to a nice person at Best Buy, looking at their great display of cameras, I suggested to him that I bring in my Nikon F2A (made in 1979) and display it with all these new high-tech wonders. That would be fun watching people, with a question mark in their head) gazed at it.

From amateur point of view, lens size is more important on compact apsc system, than pixel sharpness at corner. So, most affordable lense for sony apsc is: 1. sony e35f1.8 - compact universal lens for all. 2. sony 16-70f4 - compact affordable zoom ranges, OSS. F4+OSS make it usable in low light. 16mm is very important. 70mmF4 good for portrait. Optical quality may not the best, but good enough. 3. sony e20f2.8 - most compact crazy pancake. Ultimate combo, also universal lens for any scenario except tele.

Thanks, Mark! Loved your rave review of the Sigma 10-18mm wide angle lens/emount. This is a brand new lens, coming out on Oct 26, 2023 so couldn't be included in this review of yours two months ago. Every photographer should have a wide angle lens in addition to a long zoom lens, because a good wide angle lens, such as the sony 11mm or the sigma 10-18 gives you two things: 1. macro shooting; 2. wide angle :).

I do not understand why the Sony 18-105mm f4 PZ OSS seems to have fallen out of fashion. People seem to think f4 is too slow but it is only one stop slower than f2.8 and that stop gives big weight savings for the same focal lengths. The 18-105 is such a versatile lens. It adds that power zoom capability for smooth zooming shots, and has a great focal range of equivalent 27-160mm. If I had to have only one lens for Sony APS-C, I would choose the 18-105.

I traveled the world and shot like 98% of my photos with the Sigma 30 1.4, 1.5% with the 18-105 and rest with the Sigma 16mm 1.4 18-105 for that tele. Also the images coming from it have something special to me, it really has character :) For some reason I don't like the look of the 24mm equivalent, maybe the 16 is also too heavy. I'm very keen on getting the Sigma 23mm for that 35mm look, but I think its too big and heavy. (And pretty much FF price) Tbh, this made me think, if I should just hop on the A7C and get a Zeiss 55 and a 35 Samyang. If i go with the 2.8, its super cheap and small and compact! F2.8 offers like no background separation for me on APSC and I don't really like the look and unfortunately, I shoot a ton of low light That said, the selection for APSC is crazy good now!

First, your videos are without a doubt excellent. This is my favorite photo / video channel. ALWAYS informative. ALWAYS entertaining. I watch regardless of what you are presenting. It will be enjoyable and educational. Your channel will blow-up - please continue to include content in line with the ZVE10 / A6700 (whatever cameras replace them years from now), because you (your channel) will certainly grow and your audience and content will include more “luxury/pro” gear. - - Ok, question. I currently use the ZVE10 purely for video, and a DSLR (Canon 5d3 with great lenses) for photo. Which Sony camera should I consider IF I was to replace both the ZVE10 (video) and the Canon-5d3 (photo)? I’m an enthusiast; in terms of photography, I shoot pretty much a bit of everything (astro, portrait, landscape, architecture (interior, exterior), macro). In terms of video, mostly KZitem (crafts, vlogs, some sports action). I tend to hold onto gear for a while, so I prefer to buy once (good quality), versus compromising and getting replacement gear often. The ZVE10 is great, but it’s not quite a photographers camera (in my opinion). - - Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

@regclayton3429

I went with the Sony 18-135 mm over the f4 18-105 mm because it’s more compact for travel and general purpose photography, landscape, portraits, wildlife etc. Clear image zoom boosts the max focal length up to 405 mm (?) Coupled with flex spot tracking it’s serious fun for sports action. Close focus capabilities in zoom also make for macro like effects. Downsides are the higher f stops (f4, 5.6) pretty much kick in right away with any zoom setting, which can be an issue if bokah is a concern. Also somewhat pricey for a ‘kit lens’ if purchased new. The Rokinon 12 mm f2 and Sigma 30mm f1.4 (plus flash, stabilizer and accessories) pretty much complete my a6400 set up. I went with ASPC as full frame would have limited my budget to a body and 18-50ish mm lens. Four years later and no regrets.

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis During this trip to Japan, my long time Nikon SLR started to malfunction. So I jumped onto a Sony ZV-E10 and started a sudden splurge on lens(es). With your help, I already grabbed a Sigma 18-50 f2.8 on your recommendations. I am about to add the Sigma 16mm f1.4 just to take advantage of the Japan sales but have already spent a lot. I felt that it may be redundant with my Sigma 18-50 and my cam also has the stock Sony 16-50mm f3.5. If my ultimate goal is to attempt some astral photography, I may hold off on the Sigma 16mm and get some sort of 11mm (any thoughts on astral photo on the 16mm?). My other hope was to find an affordable telephoto; thus my main question earlier. But I was hoping for something in an f2.8. Maybe the the f4 and f3.5 you listed will be enough? I will do a lot of video with this cam too and may want the telephoto f2.8 for darker shoots. I currently also like the Sony PZ 18-105mm f4. Sorry for the long reply and thanks for helping out with my Japan shopping spree. Money IS an object so budget tips are helpful.

Hi Mark! Not sure if you’ve already covered this, but as a new ZV-E10 user, I’ve been researching lenses (mainly for video), and I’ve found out that except for f stops we also have T stops. If I understand correctly, T scale doesn’t just calculate the amount of light passing through the lens but also takes into account any losses that occur until the light reaches the sensor. So an f1.8 lens is equivalent to T2.2. Do actual photographers and videographers really care about this distinction? Should I focus on “Cine lenses” instead of just… lenses? I’ve noticed that Meike has two categories and all Cine lenses have T stops instead of f and in general their more expensive.

T-stop is the measurement of light through the lens all the way to the sensor. It gives the most accurate reading which is important to videographers in high level productions. An F-stop is just measurement of the size of the opening on a photo lens. So it's more of a theoretical value. But the truth is that most of us are better off with regular f-stop lenses that have autofocus. Cine lenses are cine lenses for a few reasons - but almost none of them have autofocus. Stick to f-stop photo lenses with autofocus until you are working on projects that require t-stops and manual cine lenses.

I noticed T values from DxOMark lens tests and each lens has its own T value on specific camera

Sounds right! The T factor depends on the actual manufacturing of each lense. Depending on manufacturing details some lenses have less or more light loss until the light coming through the opticals actually hits the sensor. However, since lenses are not manufactured completely differently, I suspect that differences are small. @@Herbridge

Just thinking out loud. Your recommendation for a studio lens, you focused on all the non studio features for why its better than the alternate lens. Maybe its not meant to be a studio lens. 🤷♂

I just wanted to make sure that people realized the much cheaper sigma just as good in the studio and unless you need the extra features that benefit videographers and photographers on the move - you're better off saving your money.

Thank you for video. One question: I got Sigma 16mm f:1.4 and trying to use it as astromovie camera, just leave it on tripod and turn on recording or watching nightsky via USB on laptop in 32000 ISO, any other special setting I should use or HLG3 on 1/50 is good enough for ZV-E10?

do you want a full frame field of view of 35? because the 35 on an apsc will have the field of view of 52.5mm field of view full frame equivalent - I just want to make sure before I answer.
