Does anyone shoot with this. Do u like it? Pros and cons? Is it versatile? I mainly do wildlife and landscape; however, from time to time I do shoot Seniors, families, and weddings( in a way still wildlife!!!)
Thanks folks
I currently use Sony a350 which is a dinosaur and needs replaced as sensor has spots on photos.It has been cleaned 1x already.

I purchased the a6500 in June of last year as a more convenient travel camera. I was using a Canon 70d and found it too big to drop into my briefcase or coat pocket. Did a lot of reading and research and decided that the a6500 offered the main things I was looking for: APS-C sensor, 24mp, in-body stabilization, electronic viewfinder. To my surprise, I found myself taking more photographs (because I had the camera with me more) and better images, more in focus. I haven't used the Canon since and have gone on to purchase the a7riii. I would say that I use both about the same since they each have their place in my world. Example; I was on the pier in Ventura Ca this weekend with my wife and wanted to do some night images. The a6500 has a mode called 'Hand-held Twilight' which takes three images and combines them in low-light situations. It is absolutely amazing. My a7riii does not have this feature and I would have needed a tripod which I didn't want to carry. I have used adapted Canon glass with the Sigma MC-11 converter and this works fine. I also am building my collection of Sony glass. I personally love this camera. Good luck in your search!
