zooms needs are widely different depending on what you normally shoot. landscape / architecture shooters will prefer wide angles, sports will prefer the opposite, etc.

24-70mm range is a probably the best 'all-rounder'. in fact, most DSLRs / mirrorless are normally sold with lenses of this range. another good thing about not having a long zoom is it will train you to move closer to your subject ("zoom with your feet"), which usually results in a better composition

sony A6000 is still worth to get?

yes, get the mk3.
the wider aperture at the long end is better than the minimal increase in zoom of the mk2.
just go walk 2-3 steps in front only.

i still think it's the best value in the market right now heck, the price even gone up slightly.. that should tell you how good it is haha.

obviously A6300 and A6500 are better if you can afford it, but most of the improvements are for video.

Yes, it is. The price has gone up a little bit, but that's due to our currency weaken. If you get it from Kldslr.com, they have cash rebate, which will bring the price back down closer to what was before.

Yes. It still has the same image quality as the A6300 and the much more expensive A6500..

Also, most people (the general public) will hardly ever utilise the camera, most just point and shoot

hi guys, sorry i'm a newbie here and i would like to ask for advice on which camera to get ^^" i'm currently using my gopro and iphone for my travel photos but sometimes i'm not satisfied with the outcome of the photos..

If my budget were to be anything below 3.5k, may i know what are the recommended cameras that i should get? I'm looking for a travel camera that's light, compact and don't require interchangeable lens. I don't mind second hand as well.

From the thread here it seems that A6000 or Fujifilm X70 is a good choice? I personally like the outlook of Fujifilm cameras. Heard their colour is amazing

Iso performance on a6300 actually much better. A6000 has strange reddish hue when you snap with high iso and crank up the exposure at pp.

Fuji x70 be better. Or get a6000 and pair with 35mm or 20mm primes. Thats the short less hassle answer.

anybody here can share review on Panasonic G7 ? Was thinking of getting one as my travel camera.

if you dont require interchangeable lenses then X70 is better i recommend to get maybe 1 or 2 extra batteries as well.

personally i would vote for the X100S because i prefer the 35mm (equiv) lens and viewfinder. but you dont get the touch-enabled tilt-screen.

Thanks for the comments! Would probably go check out the X70 this weekend I was taking the X100S into consideration as well but not sure if i can cope well with the prime lens.
