I bought a Sony A7III because I want to create travel videos and take pics. My first trip will be to Iceland next month. I don't have a gimbal (yet). I will probably purchase one after Iceland. This probably means that the lenses I use for video will need OSS, which is probably better for video anyway.
>Budget
My budget is €2000 max, preferably less.
>Wide angle
I'm not sure which lens(es) to get. I will probably need a wide angle, like the Sony Zeiss 16-35mm f/4. I can get it for about €900 (new), it's hard to find secondhand here.
>Prime lens
I thought about getting a 50/55mm lens, like the cheap 50mm 1.8 (€200) or the Zony 55mm 1.8, which is really sharp, but also more expensive (€600)
>Zoom lens
Probably the 'main' lens. I do have the kit lens, but will probably sell it soon for a profit. I'll replace it with either the Sony G 24-105mm f/4 (€1350 new, €1150 used) or the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 (€800).
The Tamron doesn't have OSS, so I would need a gimbal, but it's a much faster lens so I may no need to purchase a prime lens (50/55mm), so I could put that money towards a gimbal instead. (Crane 2 is about €450). I think I could make it work with just the Tamron and the Zony 16-35mm f/4, but again, I would need a gimbal. Another option is to just get the 24-105mm and a gimbal or just the Tamron and a gimbal. I also have a Mavic Air for drone shots.
What would you suggest? Any input is really appreciated.
