A couple of years ago I bought the Sony A65 second hand with the kit lens and I also bought a Sony 50mm f1.8 and a Sony 300mm zoom lens and I must say the image quality is absolutely stellar. I've been enjoying it a lot and I've also leaned a lot about photography using it for street, wildlife, landscape and portrait photography. These Sony cameras are really great for beginners, especially because I mostly post these pictures online like Vero and Instagram and the pictures look amazing. I also find Sony software on my A65 to be very user friendly and easy to use, also great for beginners and you can get really professional results if you know what you're doing. Absolutely nobody can tell the difference between a landscape photo taken with a camera like this vs a newer one. It's all about the lenses and your photography skills. Not to mention if you out a little more effort into editing the photos you take, then it's a whole other level! Great video!
Hi, I really liked this video, thank you. I'm being offered an a390 for 50 bucks and I find it very interesting for that price. What do you think? My main concern is autofocus performance and durability. Greetings.
Hello! It's a great camera in my opinion, a little older now, autofocus is good but not on par with brand new models of course. I think you'll enjoy it.
Nice to have someone talk about still using the older cameras that are still great

@@Brazzzzzle Thanks for the quick answer
@@fauxaccount6233 if you need any lenses for it, let me know. I have a few
$50 was and is a steal.
I saw an A35 for 50 bucks. Is it worth it? I have also a 1.7 minolta lens that I can put on it. It still take good pics and video?
Yep! I think so! Not sure about video, it depends on what kind of video you need it for. But I think the photos will still look great!
The 390 has a Kodak CCD sensor though.
Could be! Thanks for sharing!
I have a35 is it still good to travel with it and take photos 🤔
Yes! I think that series of Sonys is great. I loved my A58 and took awesome photos with it. What lens or lenses do you have?
I have the A390 and the A57. I was wondering if my next camera should be the A58, A65, or A3000?
Hey, I'm sorry I missed your question! I have the A58 and I love it. Actually need to sell it because I bought an A7ii.
a390 has a different sensor. CCP
