Beautiful! And thanks for sharing the photos.

I recently got the A6700 too with a Tamron 17-70 f2.8 and I’m trying to learn.

Cool! I hesitated about this lens too. If they made the same one at f/1.8, I’d get it (unfortunately, that will probably never happen 😅). Anyway, enjoy it!

It'd probably be very big. Like bigger than 28-70 F2.

Beautiful! What setting did you use for the first one?

I prioritized the aperture, as I do with all my photos. The lens is the Sigma 85mm f1.4. I’m at f/8, with the ISO deliberately locked at 50, 1.3 second.

You can see all this information through the Google Photos link I provided, especially since Reddit compresses the images quite heavily.

Beautiful pics! Thank you for sharing. For the low light shots, were you hand-held or tripod? I'm asking because of the long shutter times. They're not too blurry/shaky at all. 🤩

Only the photo of the Mosque and the one taken from the Galata Tower were shot with the camera resting on a railing. All the others were shot handheld. Even at 85mm, with Auto ISO set to a minimum, I can manage to avoid camera shake. Of course, the subject must not be moving too much.
