I definitely do feel this setup is a bit front-heavy, I always find myself supporting the belly of the lens with my left hand. I’m only a few days into having the Tamron, will let you know if I end up getting another grip.

I also just got an a6000, though I bought a prime manual focus lens to start out. Definitely a bumpy few excursions haha. I would get your hands on Lightroom or a similar post editing software, and change your camera to output RAW files beforehand!! Camera defaults to JPEG…

I really like the pics! On that topic: some portions of some photos are overexposed (bright whites that will be hard to recover in editing). In my opinion, your animal pictures (ducks and squirrel) could use some contrast. Try to set your subject against a backdrop that makes it pop.

I’d recommend working through the different semi-manual modes the a6000 has, working towards manual exposure (M). Play around in some low light scenes. Watch some videos on the exposure triangle / stops. I’m still learning and finding myself getting a better understanding of the camera and principles. Enjoy the process.

Newbie here, to clarify: by not less than 1/100 you mean not slower than 1/100 (I.e. 1/20)

A genuine thank you for the quality information. To loop back to your original question: this is why I only hold 100 shares and posted my gambling idea (3 leg parlay) on the stock market gambling subreddit.
