>>3818829Small size feels more like a drawback for me because of the worse ergonomics. I prefer a nice chunky grip, and I don't mind having to carry the gear in a bag.
Also, fixed lens? Feels a bit limiting. And optically you must be running out of free lunches fast stuffing that much zoom range in that small of a package.
>>3818831>Fujifilm xt1/xt2/xt3They look nice, but I'd gladly take something bulkier for ergonomics.
>On a downside af can be wanky, and no ff options.>Nikon z6. Af also isn't prefect>>3818839>Another sell of e mount: af. If you take pictures of dog or landscape af is not critical.He's a very high energy breed, it would be fun to be able to more easily capture him at speed, and good AF and stabilization could help with that. So that's definitely a priority for me.
>I think it is better to buy cheaper, used gear as first camera, because it let's you find out what you like.I know there's a decade long gap, but I don't think I'd consider it another first camera because of it. From the first camera I did learn that I like the form factor and the flexibility of replaceable lenses, as well as the improvement in image quality from a point-and-shoot. So that's what I want now, but with better AF, and preferably another step up in image quality.
>And also, biggest reason to buy into e mount are high end lenses like 90 f2.8 macro, 24 f1.4, 35 f1.4, sigma 85 f1.4. They are excellent, but arent cheap. Meanwhile nikon might not have those, but it has very compact and good optically kit lens 24-70 f4.That's a good point, maybe it's less about what's a good body and more about what's a good lens system to get into. Maybe I need to figure out what lenses are good for my dog and landscape shots and work back from that.
