QUOTE(kenlui @ May 2 2016, 09:41 AM) Most of the time I find KLDSLR price cheaper but currently shashinki is cheaper. Did u try their match our price feature? If can find a lower price than theirs, they claim that will try to match. What I like about shashinki is that despite a little more pricey but they allow credit card usage without extra charge unlike KLDSLR. Both Shashinki and kldslr got the match/beat the cheaper price feature. I did try once for sony accessories, but end up Shashinki only match the RRP of sony products cause the online price for Shashinki is higher than Sony RRP... End up didn't buy it.Now Shashinki also charges extra for CC payment, 2.8% compared to kldslr, 3%. So, there is no any advantage for Shashinki in CC payment anymore. |

Jumped off from Canon to Sony A6300.
For videography I think it really worth the change. But for stills photography(JPEG without editing), I'm still not convinced in comparison to my Canon 60D DSLR. So any reliable tips on camera settings or picture profiles? Or the f3.5-5.6 lens isn't good for stills. |

So I brought the A6300 camera to a studio photoshoot where aperture wont matter much, and compare it with my Canon gear at the same time. Although the color profile is rather flat, but the sharpness makes slight post editing just nice. So yeah, the camera just need a better lens. Faith in Sony intensifies.
Shot using the Sony PZ 16-50mm f3.5-5.6 OSS kit lens.  |
