Definitely not a stupid question. I have this lens adapted to my a6500 as well. I use this adapter:

Downsides being: aperture isn't translated to the body and you have to do everything manually on the lens, I find it fun though. Also the adapter adds a lot to the length of Nikon lenses, but with this lens specifically it's around the same length as the Sony 10-18mm.

You're probably right. Shot was already a bit under exposed and I try my best to never go higher than 400 on this camera.

This is the lens in question.
85MM
Adapted with this.

Just recently started getting into photography because of how influential it is in design (so please take what I say as a grain of salt). To start things off, photography in general is more equipment heavy than graphic design I will say. A lot of people will argue that you can replicate any photo style on any camera, but I typically disagree with this.

With that being said, price points can also be a be a bit subjective and relate with your experience level. A professional might consider a $1,500 lens to be cheap, while newcomers might find spending $1,000+ on a full kit to be expensive.

I might be a bit biased as it was the first camera I've ever bought, but I personally love Sony cameras! While Cannon, Nikon and Pentax have made names for themselves, Sony is quickly catching up with their market. In general, Sony's line of cameras are extremely universal, with their e-mount lenses the possibilities are endless. They've even provided lens adapters for many of the top camera companies, if you ever wanted to buy additional lenses.

My first camera was a Sony A6000, and I highly recommend it as a beginner level camera! They have a more updated Sony A6300, but it's entirely up to you and what you plan on using it for.

I use a few old Nikon/Nikkor lenses. Get a F mount to E-mount adapter, go on c-list or ebay and get a cheap lens. You will have to do manual focus, but focus peaking is really the best thing ever for that. You will also have to manage the aperture which is pretty easy.

Look up Ken Rockwell's manual Nikon lens reviews for good details. I have a 55mm 1.2, 135mm 2.8, 28mm 2.8, 35mm 2, and a 300mm 4.5. All these lenses can be had for under $250 if you look carefully. Also, the old nikon lenses are built like tanks, and if you do destroy one, it's not the end of the world as they are cheap. I have been hard on my 55mm and 35mm not a tear was shed when I broke one, as it cost $100 and got many good shots with it.

A HUGE plus is that the camera will use a lot less power, I can shoot 1200+ photos with my a7 and a7s and still have ~60% battery left. Also, after about 2 years of heavy manual focus, I can focus pretty quickly, sometimes better than auto focus (with low light).
