Sony A6100
The Sony A6100 is a compact system camera, it is a very good camera for beginners who have just entered the mirrorless camera world. This camera is very compact and tactile, it has a plastic and metal body. Its very light weight to carry around and can be used as your primary point and shoot camera. The camera has a 16-50mm OSS lens,4K ultra HD videographer and photography. It has a tilting screen which is very good for vloggers as you can see your self whilst you are recording. The camera also has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC,EVF, and touch screen. After using this camera for over a week I can say a very good camera for beginners and the picture quality is very beautiful especially the 4k stills.
MacBook Air 2020.
I recently purchased the new MacBook Air 2020, in the new and exclusive rose gold colour. It is my first ever MacBook purchase and so far it seems like a really clean, crisp and lightweight laptop. I have never used IOS and Apple software system so it was a completely new experience for me. So far I am loving my new MacBook Air and am getting used to the macOS Catalina software. This cost me £999. The specs for my MacBook Air are as follows:
- Retina display with True Tone
- 1.1GHz dual-core 10th-generation Intel Core i3 processor, Turbo Boost up to 3.2GHz
- 8GB 3733MHz LPDDR4X memory
- 256GB SSD storage
Canon EOS 700D.
I purchased my first DSLR camera which is the Canon EOS 700D about a year ago, before this I was using a Panasonic Lumix FZ82 which is a bridge camera and had a 60x zoom and 4k video. The Canon EOS 700D is a really good DSLR camera for beginners in the DSLR world. It has some really good features and there are lots of courses online and YouTube videos that take you through step by step on your journey to become a more professional photographer and DSLR user. The lens that I mainly use is a 18-55mm lens that I use to take everyday pictures and videos. However one thing I must mention that if you are going to buy this camera it does not have the best image stabilisation and you have to be very patience. I bought this camera second hand on eBay, it came with other accessories and an extra zoom lens 70-300 mm. The total cost was about £350 on bid.
Canon Eos Zoom lens 70-300 mm.
This is the zoom lens that I got with the Canon 700D, it has a really good zoom and can view close of shots and great photos from a distance, however the image stabilisation is not very good. I would suggest getting a good tripod but even with that it can take time before the image is stabilised and a shot can be taken especially on the Canon camera model that I have got. I will be posting soon on some good budget tripods that I recommend.
Apple Dongle.
The new MacBook Air 2020 comes with jus two USB 2.o ports, this means that it has no USB 3.0 port and no headphone jack, SD card slot etc. Because of this when you are purchasing the latest model MacBooks you also need a dongle to connect extra adapters and USB 3.0 devices that you may have. The one that I have purchased is not a direct Apple brand dongle as they are really expensive. I went for a cheaper version and bought the Baseus Multifunctional dongle, which works great. It is a 7 in 1 docking station, it has three 3.0 USB ports, one Micro SD card slot, 1 USB 2.0, 1 HDMI, and one SD card slot. It has a good built quality plastic and glass combined and works really well. Good product for the price a product that I recommend it costs £25 from ebay.
Honor 8X VS Samsung Galaxy A71
I have just recently purchased a new phone which is the Samsung Galaxy A71. In this section I will be doing a comparison between my new device and my old device which was the Honour 8x. The Honor 8X is a very good budget phone which cost me £150 pounds form carphone warehouse. I have upgraded now to the A71 which cost be £330 pounds. In terms of price I feel both phones are good value and for the money you pay you get a lot out of it. Below I will do a comparison of the mains specs between the two phones. I will also be giving my final opinion in 2 months in regards to which phone I think is the best and more better.

Huawei Matebook 13:
This Huawei Matebook 13 I purchased in early 2020, it is used as my main computer where I do all my work on. Check out the specs below:
Colour: Space Grey
CPU: Intel i7
GPU: Nvidia MX250
I have played triple A games on this computer including GTA and Batman Arkham night the battery max can last you 35 to 40 mins on a fully charged battery. The graphics are insane and it plays really well. It obviously does over heat but I use a cooling pad to control this. However if you play over 40 mins it can seriously over heat even with the cooling pad and damage the computer but overall for its size it runs very well. (please see pic below).
RAM: 16 GB
Screen Size: 13"
Weight: 2.320 kg
