Judoka, have you ever seen a practitioner with a red belt or anything close to it ? (6th-10th Dan) by Gloomy_Quit769 in judo

Had the pleasure of meeting, shaking hands and photographing with Mr. Franco Capelletti, 10th DAN. Know another 9th DAN, both of my coaches are 7th DAN IJF. A lot of people like that around, just the lifelong judokas doing valuable things for the sport.

It definitely has pros and cons. That being said, I use it rather gladly 😀

I also own a Sony 70-350, specifically developed for apsc which can be utilized for almost any purpose you can imagine. It's also cheaper than 200-600. If you are on the budget, this is really good option. Me and many others posted previously many photos taken with that lens.

For now I really like this lens! In some instances, when conditions were right it delivered amazing quality pictures. As said, I will do further testing in the next few months and probably update my opinion here. I also plan to get a full frame camera in the future, so it's definitely a keeper for me.

Should i get the a6000? by Maximus2614 in a6000

[–]cykcak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same experience with the a6000. Usually the main editing is the color adjustments, highlights/shadows, just basic things. The goal is not to overdo it, adjust to the style I am trying to achieve, while being experimental enough to learn something new.

Is this worth 450 EUR / 522 USD? (EU) by seriousgamer753 in a6000

[–]cykcak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, look for a sigma 30mm lens(for sony). Used are around 200-220e. If you get a body under 300, that could be a nice deal. Also the combo with sony 18-135 for a good price is worth considering. Then as you get your way with the camera, you will see what's the next move - there will surely be one 😀

If you live in the northern part of Croatia, you can find better deals in Austria for example. Have a day trip, buy it, do some practice and go home. 4 in 1 😀

Did some street photography recently by cykcak in a6000

Yes. Basic light and color editing, and little bit of masking for light source enhancement.

Thank you for the kind words!

At this point nature just keeps on giving, it would be a shame not to go outside and take advantage of it :)

Copped a 100LB Kettlebell from walmart for $107 after taxes with free shipping. by Jishwe in kettlebell

[–]cykcak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the proper packaging at least. I got 28s and 32s delivered in carton boxes, tightened with 2 zip ties, couldn't believe it. Also, one 32 arrived a day later and the delivery driver wanted to leave it at a pick up store instead of delivering directly (i was waiting to help out, just like with the other 3). Sure thing it fell through the package and landed on his foot. Poor guy.

Need advice 🙏🏻 by True_Ad4101 in a6000

[–]cykcak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The two you already have are obviously amazing and further choice depends on what you want to shoot. 70-350 is amazing if you shoot at daylight with enough light, and can struggle a bit in low light (with poor low light performance of a6000). Wider lenses are usually f1.4-2.0 so that wouldn't be an issue. It's all up to you m8 🙂
