tbh portability is the key for me. I travel a lot with just a backpack. Due to that I picked smallest sony body (zv-e10) and ultra duper super small and sharp zoom lens - sigma 18-50 f2.8. It is perfect travel companion.
Was actually pondering not too long if I would try a FF camera next. One point I hadn't considered yet was the weight, which is important for me due to a past arm/hand injury, so thanks for pointing that out! The crop factor on the APSC is a big plus for me as well, so I think that's my mind set on which filters to enable when looking around for a new camera body in the future. Would also love to see what gear you would recommend for starters, I'd be curious to see! (Got the video notification this time, btw!)
Yea I've actually struggled to hold a FF camera set up with a single hand before which is never the case with my APSC camera Any suggestions on reasonable price ranges for the starter kit vid?
@@JimmyShixin I got my starter kit (Canon EOS M50 Mark II + 2 kit lenses) for 979 euros/837 GBP. I am very happy with it to this day still. I could have gone for the kit with just the one lens tho, since I purchased a second-hand 70-200mm f2.8 II lens shortly thereafter, which is still my default set-up for zoo photography. When browsing at the time, I considered kits from around the 600-1000 euro/513-855 GBP range. If *just* the camera body cost 1000 euros, I felt it was no longer starter and a bit out of my price range. Though, in hindsight, I kind of wish I had gone for something pricier as I've been wanting to do proper photography since I was a teen but I had also only been in my full-time job for only a year, so I didn't really have a reserve yet to spend on luxury/hobby stuff. Still tho, no regrets! I am happy with my body and I have since purchased lenses that I know will work on other camera bodies too should I decide to upgrade. Hope any of that helps!
I’ve got a Nikon z8 and a Fuji x100vi.. I don’t find a big difference in full frame vs crop.. besides it being annoying that lens names don’t match up.. the end result looks the same to me.
Not trying to dismiss your points but you don't have/ues a FF camera, right? If not, what is even the point of the video? You're giving baseless opinions on something you haven't used personally, a.k.a, without getting your hands dirty before making comparisons. Do you see the logic not working here?
Yea very valid point - while I do not own a FF camera I've used them plenty of times when shooting with my photography mates. But yea, haven't had a FF camera for the long term though, hence the caveat at the start of the vid
I went from a Nikon D3300 to a Sony a6700 10 year difference of tech is wild.

I think what you said about this not being Anti Full frame, but more Pro APSC hits the nail on the head!
True bro. I have change my D750 and D700 to Nikon Zf-c. Quite a relief for me

Your videos has helped me to decide to switch my Nikon D7100 + Nikon 18-200 to Sony a6700 + Tamron 17-70 😀
Good choice! Been wanting the 6700 too just waiting for the funds 😅
Would appreciate the video on what you would buy if your just starting out.👍🏾
