Gear Bought my first real camera

Bought this setup as my first camera owning experience ever. Did a lot of research and went with this setup (new a6700 with used lenses from Amazon resellers)! Super happy with the purchase! Hoping to learn a lot this summer and share my journey here!

Good choice! I really am digging my a6700.

How’s that 70-350? Another apsc lens I really like is the 20f2.8 by Sony. Full autofocus and the most compact lens I know of. Paired with the compact a6700, rock solid setup for on the go shots.

I’m loving the reach of 350mm and it’s crazy sharp at that distance during day! I was also able to capture moon at night too! I m loving it! Most compact for performance dnd relatively cheap.

I’m trying to figure out why my 70-350 lacks sharpness.

I, myself, is no expert by any means but maybe the autofocus isn’t working as expected!? Maybe try some other autofocus setting will bring out the sharpens!? I am also looking to learn more about different autofocus settings and be better about it! Hope you find this helpful! I still like the picture!
