I’m relatively new to digital photography and have collected some gear, but wondering if it’s the right stuff.
I have a Sony a6000, the kit lenses, a sigma 100-400 (MC-11 adapted), a Tamron 18-200 (B011) and an old manual Nikkor zoom macro that I’m happy with.
I’m not 100% satisfied with the sharpness I’m getting, of course the Tamron is better than the kit lenses and the Sigma is better still.
My question is:
Should I sell the lenses and go with better lenses?
Get a full frame camera and keep the lenses?
Sell everything and go with something else?
I’m also having trouble determining just how sharp is sharp enough. I don’t do social media, mostly prints, some up to 16x20.
My shooting breaks down like this (Approx):
Landscape—40%
Close up—30%
Wildlife—20%
Sports (Grandkids)—8%
Indoor sports—2%
Any advise would be most appreciated.

Yup----Through there last week (I work in WY). Some of the most diverse country between Ten Sleep and Buffalo you'll see.
Through the windshield should be called "Wrong Way!"
Nice.
When I got back into photography about a year ago (I'm from the film and brass & glass days), I looked at probably 5 or 6 free trial software programs. I settled on Affinity Photo because of price and it was pretty simple to learn. I have used it to focus stack. They call it "merge." The first one I did had 5 photos stacked up and the most photos I did was 44. Quick and easy (of corse I don't have experience with any other PP programs so I assume it's quick and easy).
I just got mine this past Friday at Costco ($1599.99 for both ears). Less than 1/2 price of Sam's club and the "Pro" place and in two days of use thay are great. I like the "cafe" program best.
Contact Green Jeep Tours in Estes Park. For a about $200 they can show you places in the park from a jeep (little walking) that you'd never see otherwise. We've done 2 tours with them, great folks.
