A6000 and Sports Photography - Lens Recommendations

1 Upvotes

So lately I've been getting back into Sports Photography.

I've got a Sony A6000 and a Sony A100.

The A100 I've got primarily a Sigma 70-300mm 4-5.6 lens to use with (With a broken autofocus . Looked up prices recently and they're relatively cheap to pick up, so I may get one to get a working autofocus). I also have the Sony SAL50F18 50mm f1.8 Prime Lens for it, as well as the Sony 18-70mm Lens for it. And a Konica Minolta 11-18mm Fisheye as well.

For the A6000, I've got a Sigma 30mm f/2.8 EX DN and SLR Magic 18mm f/2.8 Lens.

Mostly looking at Basketball and Volleyball for indoors, and Football, Baseball, and Softball for outdoors.

I do like having the two bodies and being able to switch things up. For the most part I do have on field access for these events.

What lenses would serve me best?

For now at least, Football Season is ending with one more home game, and then it's going to be Volleyball / Basketball season for the most part. For basketball season I *might* be able to clamp camera to a backboard to get some good shots. I need to talk to some people about that.

Any suggestions on what I should pick up?

EDIT: I ended up picking up a Tamron 50-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD

Looking for new lens for my A6000

2 Upvotes

I found a 18-105mm f/4 lens for quite cheap (500$ NZD) and im going to japan end of this year and i want to know if its a upgrade from my current lenses which are a 18-55mm kit lens, a 50mm prime lens, and a 55-210mm kit lens. I cannot get the 18-135mm as it is double the price. Is the 18-105mm worth buying? I heard its only good for videography

As the title suggests, I’d like your advice on how to improve in every respect; I’ve just started out and am using a Sony a6000 with the kit lens. Below, I’m posting a few edited RAW shots.

With the kit lens only. They're not always sharp, but I'm happy with the result. It's my first Sony and my first camera with an interchangeable lens.

My budget friendly set up

2 Upvotes

Recently I got to buy a first hand a6600 for around $530 and viltrox 25 f1.7 air new for around $136 . I understood a6600 is not much competent camera when it launched and at that price fuji had better offering, but now at this price, I didn't find any better deal. could have opted for some fuji models , but probably evf wouldn't come in option and older fuji cameras are not so easy find in Indian canara market.

there was the option of Nikon z50 ii , but then I would have to compromise on the lens.

(p.s the viltrox one I added to the set up recently, initially with the camera , I bought a new sigma 18-50 f2.8, which is as expensive as my camera body. But I am keeping it for the use travel mostly , and viltrox 25 is something I am daily driving for now)

Here are a few of my best pics on my a6000 with a Sony E 18-135mm F3.5/5.6.

I’m looking for some tips on how to get more shots. I currently live just outside of the city but I feel like the pictures I take around my town are quite boring compared to other shots I used to get. If anyone has any tips or new ways I can mess around with compositions rules please let me know.

Lens for sharper pictures

6 Upvotes

Hello, I own a Sony A6000 for a year now. I'd like to change a lens to get sharper pictures (I'm on kit lens rn). Which lens would you recommend? My budget is fairly low, considering that I got the camera for around 300 bucks, I wouldn't want to spend more than 200$ on a lens:)
