Thanks for reading and for your opinion :) I’ve got a lot of googling and comparing to do 🙈

Thanks for all the ideas and input :)

I’m aware of the crop factor and the fact that full frame is more expensive but I appreciate the contextualization nonetheless. I’m also open to APS-C lenses I just wasn’t sure if it would be more worth to save some money now by buying an APS-C lens or save some money later by already having bought a full frame one 🤷‍♀️

I’ll look into viltrox and Samyang/Rokinon as I’ve read some positive things about those online as well :)

I also appreciate your input on warranties although I doubt I’ll buy anything expensive enough that I couldn’t live without one if it meant I could save a couple bucks :)

Wow those pictures are so beautiful I almost feel the warmth looking at them ☀️

I didn’t think vintage lenses could start that low that definetly motivates me to explore a little 😮

I have never heard of a focal reducer but I’m curious to research it now

Thanks for the advice 😊

Why didn’t I think of that ^^

(I appreciate u reading the whole thing feel free to nerd out about your favorites either way maybe they’re adaptable :))

Thank you I’ll look up the sigma zoom and the “Air” lenses :)

Wow that’s a lot of info. I greatly appreciate all your input 😊

I have not yet worked with any vintage lenses but it’s something that definetly sounds interesting to me, so I’ll make sure to watch the video you linked and look into the options for adapters and the like.

It will probably take me a while but I’ll look into the specific lenses you recommended plus the third party manufacturers as well as soon as I have a bit more time 🙈

I also definetly see the point about not having to break the bank and more working on my skills than my set up. I think with all the camera blogs calling 1000$ things Budget I just got a little nervous about how important such things are, especially considering the camera I was able to get is already like 10+ years old or something 😅

Thank you, that’s very helpful.

I figured f2.8 would get expensive quickly so it’s nice to know that going up to f4/4.5 is nothing to be scared of.

I also appreciate your input on zoom lenses as I was a bit worried about the quality loss compared to primes because I don’t have much experience and don’t have any comparisons of my own to rely on. As another commenter also recommended a zoom lens I’ll definetly have to look into those in general a bit more 🙈

thanks for taking the time 🫶🏻

I appreciate the input 👍🏻 I’ll read up on the lenses you mentioned and see if they could work for me ☺️
