Wide zooms are never cheap. That's why a manual prime is a good consideration. I shoot landscapes, the auto focus is more of a convenience rather than a requirement. At dusk or dawn, the auto focus dun work properly anyway.


What type of lens are you using now?

just bought my a6000 on Tue. My Samsung NX300 had to be decom, so I had to get replacement for my trip next week. Still playing with it and learning to operate it.

Anyone upgraded to the latest software? is it worth upgrading? or should I just use it as is now?

My NX1000 decommissioned already. Still holding it because it has a nice stabilized 50-200mm zoom.

The A6000 got a lot of aftermarket accessories to fiddle around with. I have a set of legacy lenses and the E-mount has the most diverse amount of adapters after the 4/3 mount.

One thing I can say that you should set first. Turn on airplane mode. Saves a lot of battery power. Unlike the NX1000 where I am comfortable carrying 2 batteries. A6000 you need to carry around 3.

BTW, you cannot charge the battery and use the phone at the same time. So screw the idea of using a powerbank stuck to it and using it at the same time.

nice tips, didn't know that using airplane mode makes a difference.

charging using a power bank is still an advantage here, when you are not using, you can leave it to charge using a power bank anywhere.
