For direct comparison you should pair the Sony with 2470GM leh. But budget burst 1000 times haha

I belif not direct comparison since a6500 has bigger sensor advantage over m43 hence f4 lens is the direct comparison, roughly lah...

Hi guys, I'm planning to get A6400 with Sigma 30mm F1.4 / Sony 35 mm F1.8 / Sigma 16mm f/1.4 as my first camera. Would it be a good option as compared to A6500 or A7ii?

You want to "selfie" style a lot, A6400.

A6500 has IBIS.

A6400 is generally newer stuff compared to A6500.

A7 II i let others reply la.

Dear All,

I wish to resume my hobby in photography. And also due to budget matters, i left these 2 camera in my wishlist.

1. Sony A7 (mark 1)
2. Sony A6300

Both are almost the same price for new unit. My heart told me to go for FF, but i worry this gem is too old with slow AF. However A6300 provides newer features.

I usually shoot for food, portrait and scenery.
For photo wise I believe A7 is better, though A6300 isn't far off.

What I like about the A6xxx series is that the overall setup is a lot smaller, that is until you decide to slap on a big glass on it.

u mean like off balance by having big lens on a small body?

its kinda true, lighter is always the better. previously i was using 5dm2. thus i kinda feel unconvenient on a6xxx setting up where u need to change the setting in the menu instead with using the buttons at the camera body

A7ii, maybe but a no no to a7. Its FF but that camera got plenty of 1st gen issue that will make people wonder "who design this crap" like the shutter button placement. Also slower focus, old gen sensor, iffy controls, may get problem when pairing with newer lens etc. Better go a6300 or up budget to A7ii if absolutely need that FF look.

Pretty bad. The shutter button placement is on the camera rectangle body, not on the handle grip. Unless u got flexible trigger finger, u will get annoyed fast.

TrialGone is right.

A7 had so many issues until sony had to come out the a7ii in 10 months time.

a7ii to a7iii about 3+ years later.
