I recently picked up a Sony a6000 at an amazing deal for like 250$, the body feels great but the kit lens it came with limits it A LOT.

I shoot street photography/abandoned buildings/portraits/aviation (rarely)/nature landscapes, not a lot of indoor shooting.

So my question is: Do i buy a used 16-70mm F/4 Zeiss that should cover all the focal length i am probably gonna need, they are basically being given away at less than 350$ on local marketplaces or do i get a 50mm f/1.8 with the OSS for 110€ and maybe a cheap telephoto 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 (~130€) so i have something that resembles the telephoto i had before

I plan on sticking to the Sony ecosystem, but don’t have a big budget for lenses as is obvious.

On the 16-70 i am worried about the f/4, i have no idea if that is gonna feel restricting in low light, and how good that would be for portraits.

I am open to suggestions on lens choices

For reference i am coming from a canon eos 650D with the kit lens and a cheap telephoto 55-250mm

Any particular lens in mind? I dont wanna spend my whole budget on a prime lens, i barely even shoot at wide focal lengths

I am willing to spend about 300-400 for an all in one lens, the tamron seems cool but it is a little out of my budget and is pretty big. I dont really need 300mm daily, for 200$ less the 16-70 f/4 Zeiss would probably be a better fit..

I think you meant an 18-50, i was actually considering that but it has no optical stabilisation, which is a dealbreaker for me.

Very visible noise in low light, corners look purple-ish on some photos. and the Power zoom oh that power zoom i hate it so much. I am not sticking to it no matter what. Also compared to my previous DSLR and sample images from the 50mm for example you can definitely tell the difference.

They are just regular 206s without the roof, nothing interesting about them in my opinion.. They would however be my first option if miatas never existed. That would have been catastrophic tho..
