    I've been doing this w my a6400 x 20mm 2.8 and it's actually a super fun + powerful little combo 🤘🏼

    • @vidthreenorth4007
      @vidthreenorth4007 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I also have an a6400 w/20mm F2.8 (and other stuff). I have not seen output from Fujis up to a couple of years ago that I felt were outside of what my Sony could produce. These last couple of years, I have not been keeping up with the changes. Since I have not seen capabilities that seem to add anything substantial, I have not looked at new stuff in detail.

    The a6000 still has better auto focus than the x100iv 😅😂

    • @NewportMenthol100s
      @NewportMenthol100s 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Is it really that bad? I have a X100s and compared to my Nikon 1 j5 the autofocus is from the stone age on the Fuji. Which is insane considering the cost of the X100s and you'd think the Autofocus has gotten better in the last 10 years.

    • @SideshowBob44
      @SideshowBob44 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It has gotten better but still even the recent ones aren’t as good as the a6000. And they seem to make it worse with every firmware lately.

    • @mommad77
      @mommad77 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Ha! I can’t attest 100% but in my limited Fuji experience you are spot on. Pretty crazy that a cute camera has started such a ruckus. I admit I love the look this have the silver a7cii as my backup with a pancake, but at least it’s still versatile and reliable 😂

      for real ? i tried A6000 vs A6400 with tamron 17-70, and ewwwww...and A6000 AF ewww. So it means 6400 more superior than X100 LOL

  • @JohnScottB
    @JohnScottB 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    I got rid of my Fuji gas by combining an A7C and the Sony 40mm f2.5 lens. Had the Samyang 35 f2.8 before that for an event more compact setup, but I like the ergonomics and focal length of the 40mm. Not necessarily "cheaper" but... available and worlds better autofocus. I also previously combined an A6400 with that Sony 20mm f2.8 which was also great.

    • @cameraperv
      @cameraperv 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for this comment! I've been considering the Samyang 35mm or the Sony 40mm for my A7C and this helped me decide.

  • @Pugboy1321
    @Pugboy1321 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Some others also mentioned it but I wanna also confirm that the A6000 has Creative Styles! It does require a little menu dig though: Menu > Tab 1 (Camera icon) > Page 4 > Creative Styles
    I don't think it's due to a firmware update being needed since my NEX-5N, NEX-5T, and RX100II have it as well and I doubt they'd take it out of the A6000 and then put it back.
    Checking A6000s for firmware updates is important though, gotta make sure you're not missing out on XAVC-S!

  • @DigiDriftZone
    @DigiDriftZone 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    The new Viltrox full frame pancake also looks interesting!

  • @whostammam
    @whostammam 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    did a similar thing but got the fuji x-t30 with the 27mm pancake lens. Still got the fuji colors + interchangeable lens + cheaper and easier to find than the x100vi

  • @I922sParkCir
    @I922sParkCir 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I tried doing this with my A6400. Fantastic camera with autofocus that is superior to the X100VI.
    In the end I just bought a X100VI. They are incomparable. The X100VI’s controls are the best thing about it. It’s such an enjoyable camera to use.
    The SOOC images are fantastic as well. I spend so much time in Lightroom for work that it’s nice to be able to get great images for personal use from this camera. The built in raw converter is there if I need to tweak images.
    I find the X-Trans sensors to have poor low light performance. When it’s dark and I’m shooting with a 1/60 shutter speed or above, I consider this a black and white camera. The IBIS is great, so for static shots and I can hand hold down to a second.
    The X100VI’s price is super high, the autofocus isn’t competitive, and the high ISO performance is poor (1600 is my personal max for color, but really it starts becoming noticeable above 800).
    The X100VI is a professional photographers toy, whereas these Sony A6XX cameras can do it all.

    Just beginning to adjust my A6000 DRO/Auto HDR and Creative Style options in the menus. I am liking the possible options for portrait and landscape work. Colors have improved! I have spent the last two years looking for that Sony 20mm lens at a decent price. Yes, got caught with same issue this video addresses. Finally chose the TTArtisan 27mm 2.8.

  • @J-Young_photography

    Arthur may be you can explore a bit more on the say A6700 creative styles and how to match to Fujifilm colors or something more special.

    • @charmandpie
      @charmandpie 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      I was thinking the same thing. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of content out there comparing the two. Or videos on the creative styles at all.

    • @NicholsonDR
      @NicholsonDR 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      FWIW, I did a side-by-side with my A6700 and a brand new X100vi -- the Sony "natural" JPEG style was virtually indistinguishable from Fuji Provia, at least to my eye. I preferred the Fuji Velvia over Sony Vivid1 but not Vivid2 which was very close. The same for the B&W variations. I did this over the course of an afternoon and didn't really try to dial in the subtle adjustments which are possible in each style but if someone had the patience he could probably get very close to most of the Fuji film simulations with in-camera Sony JPEGs. I ended up returning the X100vi, concluding that the buzz around that camera was more hype than real and that the A6700 was superior in every way, at least to my taste.

    • @ardie3523

    @MrCameraJunkie 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Great vid bro, I use that same lens 20mm F/2.8 with my Sony NEX-6 for the smallest form factor also. BTW you can adjust for the bluish cast from the A6000 in the white balance fine adjustment setting. I push all my sony cameras 2 points towards magenta. Hope that helps, Thanks for sharing.

  • @MKc-pm9tw
    @MKc-pm9tw 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Got an A6000 for 200 bucks on b&h, ten years old and well used. I didn’t expect much, but discovered it is a kick-bass camera if you can live with the non-flipping screen. Bit on the A6700 four months later, and that is now my daily go-to, but I still reach for the A6000 for panoramas and exposure bracket composites that I don’t have to stitch together in post: the A6000 spits it all out in one file. Great idea here, never considered this a candidate for comparing to the X100VI, but it is.

  • @DanPandrea
    @DanPandrea 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

  • @SideshowBob44
    @SideshowBob44 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I had the X100V for a few years and liked it, did eventually want more focal lengths, so switched to the a6700.

  • @tadc
    @tadc 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Steven just took it out of my mouth: TTArtisans 27/2.8. I took delivery of it just the other day to pair it for "pocketability" with my NEX-6, which is even more compact than a6000. Slight disappointment with the TT. It does not like continuous focus at all for apertures 5.6 and above. Single focus works fine. I'm keeping it nonetheless because It has no problems on my new a6700 in any focussing mode. TTArtisans says too bad for the old camera.

    • @bondgabebond4907
      @bondgabebond4907 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Instead of buying the biggest and badest cameras, we are looking to find the smallest, within reason, that can be stuffed in a pocket. There are a few, the ZV-1 is perfect with a built in zoom. The a6700 is perfect with that TTArtisan lens. I got one and it works very well and is quite sharp. But with all these YT creators, we get confused with simply pushing a camera vs finding solutions to better photography. I think Arthur does a great job. And he points out that it is not necessary to buy the latest as if it is the best and there are other ways of getting what we want. Anything smaller than my Nikon F2 is greatly appreciated. I love my a6700 but am getting to love my A7CR a little more. They are so close to being the same size that I often confuse the two. That and some of the very compact lenses Sony has out and even using the TTArtisan 27mm lens will work fine in many situations.

  • @atselykovskiy
    @atselykovskiy 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    There are many interchangeable lens cameras with pancake lens options from different systems, however what makes X100 series special are optical viewfinder and leaf shutter

    • @ArthurR
      @ArthurR  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      This is true, no Sony camera will give you the nearly silent leaf shutter or the hybrid EVF. Or built in ND.

    • @kicyiu
      @kicyiu 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ⁠@@ArthurRnot optical viewfinder but you have leaf shutter with any RX1

  • @shirakawanaoya
    @shirakawanaoya 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Im currently using the a6700 with creative styles and the ttartisan 27mm 2.8 compact lens to take around town.

  • @PhilipRaines
    @PhilipRaines 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My version of this is my a5100 with the TTArtisan 25/f2 manual focus lens. With the lens at infinity and at 5.6 or better, i can shoot from the waist with the flip screen and easily seen focus peaking confirmation and be very discreet. If I want separation i can take it to f2 and have a pleasing blown out background. The zoom lever in front of the shutter button uses clear image zoom to make any prime enjoy a short throw 2x zoom.
    With any of my auto focus lenses the screen has touch focus which is again, more discreet than an evf for on the street.
    It was released in August 2014 after the a6000 and shares the same focus system with 179 focus points.
    I have the 16/2.8 which is not as good as your 20/2.8. I will eventually find a 20/2.8 at a reasonable price to add auto focus to this compact package.
    The creative style and picture effect settings aren't fuji, but can add some interesting dimension of your play with it some.
    Good video!

    There was a smaller equivalent to A6000, A5100 which I happen to still have around :) And default pankake lens for portability for me, 16-50. Normally, I use 18-105 F4 which is twice the size of camera, but way sharper.

  • @bondgabebond4907
    @bondgabebond4907 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I like the new A7Cii/A7CR bodies, especially the CR. It can do high res and aps-c. It is compact, feels good in the hand with its excellent grip. As for favorite lenses to take out, that really depends on where I am going. I will switch between the new tiny Sony 24mm and the 40mm. Zoom I use is the 20-70mm f4. Great combo. At airshows, I will carry a long tele zoom. So, depends on the situation.

  • @shirakawanaoya
    @shirakawanaoya 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Nice video! One thing this Sony misses one of the Fuji X100 series best features; A leaf shutter!, with high speed flash possibilities. Other overlooked. But with the build in ND filter of an X100 you can use f2.0 in bright sunlight and use that tiny flash for fill-in light.

    I've had several Fujis in the past. If they could simplify/rationalize their menus and sort out their seeming-eternal "supply chain" issues, I'd reconsider them. The thing that hooked me in with them was how they could sometimes just nail an image, with great tone gradation, light fall off, etc. Other times, like with landscapes, I'd usually prefer what my Canon cameras could deliver.

    I've been shooting a Canon EOS M with the kit lens and the 22mm. I like both for different reasons but the 22mm is on more than the kit lens. The M is slow, but I really love the photos I get from it. I shoot my old Canon EOS 40d if I want a little quicker experience, I also have many film cameras that I picked up cheap or free when they were being dumped for digital. I have a friend who had a 6000 and now has a 6700, though I seldom see him carrying either. He carried a G7 quite a lot for a while.

    I had a x100v daily alongside my A7 but sold the x100 for a6600 with a 24mm 2.8mm.. and occasionally use a telephoto. But the 24mm is chunkier and the images dont feel inspired. So it often stays at home.

  • @HR-wd6cw
    @HR-wd6cw หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hmmm.. . Now I'm thinking maybe that $250 A6000 I saw at the camera store might not be a bad buy after all. I could get the new Viltrox 28mm and have a cheap X100 type camera like you have here. For a project like this I think the a6000 fits the bill perfectly fine as for street photography, it's more so about capturing a moment than it is about absolute sharpness, or high color accuracy or even ISO noise to an extent although the a6000 does do quite well even today despite it's age in that sense. But the biggest important thing is having a camera with you, and a small camera like the a6000 or even the a5100/a5000 are ideal for this (better than some of the newer Sony's which are a bit thicker, especially the ones with IBIS).
    For me, when doing street, I've been using my Nikon Zf and 40mm lens, although that combo is a bit bigger than I would like, so I'm going to probably look for something cheaper and smaller to act as my street camera and the a6000 sounds like a good choice especially a used one (or the a5100 although I dislike the omission of the EVF as I really find them useful).

    i believe you are not really well informed about the creative styles 7:14 because even the early nex camera's have this built in (nex 5, nex 5t, nex 6) (if i believe it correctly also on the a-mount system it was a thing) so you can actually have more control that you descibed.

      The reason is because you were paying $400 for a pancake lens that was softer than the $100 kit lens. Now, when you can pick up one of these for $200 and because street photography doesn’t require optical perfection, and the small size is important, it is “OK” for this purpose.

      @@ArthurR I gottcha. Nothing has changed about the performance of the lens, (i.e firmware update, enhanced model), you’re now judging it based on the available price and considering it for a specific application (street). Some (me) would say it is a “fun sized” lens, at a “fun sized” used price, that does have a characteristic look, and can fit the bill for someone not expecting tip of the top technical acuity. I will even contend outside of a street photographer, some like the soft look the lens returns and will find it works for them.
