Hey folks,
I'm looking to purchase a new Sony Mirrorless camera to do cosplay photography with this summer. I've got a budget of roughly $2000 to spend on a new camera body plus whatever lenses I can squeeze in with the remainder.
So far I've narrowed it down to the a6500 or the a7 II. I had been waiting to see if Sony would announce an a7 III, but instead we've got the new a9 which while godly, is way out of my price range and overkill for my needs.
While there are some obvious big differences between the two bodies, I'd like to hear your reasoning for why I should choose one over the other. I'd also really appreciate some recommendations for what sort of glass I should try and get for either, keeping my main use case in mind.
I've already got an E 4.5-6.3/55-210 OSS and an E 3.5-5.6/PZ 16-50 OSS available to use. I've hardly ever had a good chance to make use of the 55-210. When it comes to lenses I don't really know what to look for. Advice in this area would be greatly appreciated!
