@GoldenGlove I just came across your Tumblr. Did you use the Sony A6000 for those Lupe pics?

I'm thinking about buying a new camera for my bday and shopping around. I've been using a D90 for some time now but I'm looking for something smaller. I'm also looking at the Fujifilm x100

Yeah, all the photos on my tumblr page were taken with either my A6000 or my older cam the Sony NEX5N

I've used both...The sony 6000 is dope and has great fast auto focus, but when it comes to picture quality the Fuji is better in my opinion. Also one thing is that the Fuji is pretty much a manual camera with a fixed lens, so no getting any lens for zooming. shyt I even have to keep my Canon speedlight on TTL mode with the fuji. So if you do pick up the Fuji, be prepared to really get used to shooting in manual. I've gotten used to it and love it. @spinoza was the one who pointed this out about the Fuji, I got one soon after....and he was right about it. The sony6000 is really great for video though, and is a great camera too.

I might need an A7 to hold me down until the medium format Fuji jawn comes out :banderas:
The DP i was working with (guy holding the cam in the picture) recently copped the A7 r2 and the shyt he was showing me from his vacation was :banderas::damn:

definitely cop that (and if you wanna shoot videos it's legit at 4k :whew:)

I think shooting manual might help. I've been using the D90 for a little while now but with pretty easy settings. I'm just starting to take photography a bit more seriously and plan on doing it a lot more for my job this year so any experience helps I reckon.
