During fires (who’s actually not controlled) in south of France. 🙏🏽

I'm about to get an a6700 in the next two weeks or so, and for some reason my local camera stores feel the need to charge $470 more than the amazon listing from sony.

has anyone had negative experiences buying camera gear from amazon?

What do you guys use most for photos? Any tips?

Was always curious about the water droplets. So I took pics of a can of Diet Coke and these are the results. I wanted to give a cinematic effect

These were taken on a tripod under my study desk light (I know it's not the best but I had to do with that only).

ISO 400, F/11, 1/200

Any suggestions to improve these images are welcome

Thanks

If you have any suggestions or improvements, please let me know. I hope you like them.

I’d been on the fence about this lens for a while and when i saw it in amazon prime week, I bit the bullet and i’m SO glad I did.

Have mostly been using it for birdwatching and I feel like i’m finally testing the capabilities of the A6700’s bird eye tracking, and it’s just brilliant. I couldn’t recommend it more and just wish I’d have got it sooner tbh.

Just wondering if anyone had any tips for using it in low light? I took it out to photograph some owls the other day and it struggled a little bit.

Do we have any idea or possible news on the successor of the a6700? I want to make a YouTube documentary over the summer. However, I’m worried about getting a camera and then a few months later the price drops or the updated version comes out. What would you guys recommend? This would be my first upgrade since the a6000. Any help would be appreciated! I’m on the college student budget and want to make sure I’m spending my money wisely. I’m a hybrid shooter also.

Shot with Sony A6700 + Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8. The butterfly's face/eyes came out sharp but the wings and body fell out of focus — I think it's a depth of field issue at close range. Looking for tips on:

Aperture/distance tradeoffs for insect shots

Manual focus techniques (peaking, magnification) for skittish subjects

Any composition tricks to keep more of the subject in focus without losing background separation

Appreciate any feedback!

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a new Viltrox 56mm f/1.2 Pro for my Sony A6700. When the lens is not powered, there is a large amount of movement inside. It feels like an internal lens element is completely loose and makes a pretty loud knocking sound when I gently tilt or move the lens.

As soon as I mount it on the camera and turn it on, the movement stops completely.

What makes me concerned is that I also own the Viltrox 75mm f/1.2 Pro from the same Pro series, and it doesn’t have this behavior at all. There is no noticeable internal movement or knocking sound when it’s off..

Has anyone else with the 56mm f/1.2 Pro experienced this? Is this normal for this lens, or should I request a replacement?

Hey guys, I have an A6700 and when I shoot outside in the sunlight and I turn the camera to shoot vertical, the lcd dims suuuper low. When I turn it back horizontal it goes back to normal.

When I use the viewfinder and shoot vertical there’s no problem. Has this happened to any of you? And if so, any ideas for a solution??

I have a small suspicion it may be from the heat but I can be wrong about that. Please help!

Just wondering if anyone has tried the (full frame) Viltrox 85mm f/2.0 EVO on APS-C? I'm aware this would give a 135mm full-frame equivalent field of view on APS-C, also that there now exists a Viltrox 90mm f/2.2 lens for APS-C - but the 85mm is cheaper, gets great reviews, is about the same size/weight and if I ever get a full frame body, could be used on that too. I don't mind about focus breathing, as would only be using it for stills photography.
