10 things you didn't know Sony A7iv does better than A7Riv

[@camerathencoffee]

Hey guys, I'm pleased to share that we're growing channel. Hope you're finding my videos helpful👍

[@papsny]

Only thing it does better is the video and the menu system. Everything else, the A7RIV does better. You can create another composition in a composition. With the A7RIV, you have 2 focal lengths when using a prime. A 24mm can also be a 36mm, a 85mm can be a 127mm, without losing any quality. Also, the tilt screen is better when shooting with a handle of the left side, when using long lenses or when doing street photography (as a tilt screen is more discreet). The photo fps of the A7RIV is better as well, it is not handicapped like the A7IV at 8 fps (photo). I have used both in wildlife photograph and the AF is the same in real world use. The saving grace is that the high res of the A7RIV allows you to recompose your shots. Also, the A7RIV can use the fake S-Cinetone. A7RIV EVF and screen is also much better. IMO, if you need the 422 10bit for video, I'd go with the A7IV or save up a few more for an A7SIII. If you need a good photo camera and some video. The A7RIV is plenty good. Thanks for your video!

Thank you very much for sharing this bro ☺️. This would be really helpful for fellow creators and viewers.

I have used A7Riv and Riii and Rii, the quality of 61mp sensor is unlikely to be compromised with the current breed of Sony lenses, I have also used simga primes and zooms lenses, tamron zooms lenses. As for pricing they are about the same right now. A7RIV is a camera more dedicated to photography and A7IV is more of something smack right in the middle between a dedicated video camera and photo centric camera.

[@camerathencoffee]

Agree with you John...👍

Why i just balled up on 2 A7R IVA's one for 2100 shipped new open box zero shutter count , one brand new for 2500 shipped in december 2022 just few weeks ago. Is that not a good deal haha. So wasnt expensive to me in comparison to A7 iv .

Thanks so much man! Really makes me EVEN BETTER of my newly bought Sony A7IV :)

Hi..thanks for the video..what if they both are in same price range used? Which one will be better?

[@diegomataa10]

I like taking sport pictures, would the A7 IV be a better option ?

[@camerathencoffee]

Definitely Diego. Sony A7IV is a good options as it offers continuous shooting of 10 fps and has head/face/eye detection. Do you also have any other camera in mind?

[@DoctorQuinlan]

Good video! I am more on the photography side and dont do video now though it may be nice to do casually on trips. I can get either camera for the same price but am leaning towards a7iv.....any advice?

[@camerathencoffee]

Hi Doc, both are great cameras. However, new tech always has an edge over the old, so I would suggest you to go with Sony A7IV.☺️

[@DoctorQuinlan]

@@camerathencoffee thanks man. Do you think the Sony a7iv has a huge advantage over a7iii? Clearly it is better but I am somewhat new to photography (three years) so I don’t know if I need the best right away. However one could also argue it would last longer too. What is your recommendation there?

[@camerathencoffee]

Yes, I agree with you. If you're just starting out, I would suggest you to go for A7iii and invest in a better camera in future. ☺️ An experience is always helpful.

[@DoctorQuinlan]

@@camerathencoffee not saying I just started out. I started three years ago but have a lot to learn

[@camerathencoffee]

@@DoctorQuinlan Cool bro, all the best with your journey. 🙂

[@aliabbas-syed]

Thank you for comparison, been searching for this. One question though, any advantage of a7r4 over a7iv? Looking forward to more videos.

[@camerathencoffee]

Hey Ali, I'm glad the video was helpful to you. Thank you so much for watching. And yes, A7riv has a better sensor (61MP vs 33 MP) than the A7iv which makes A7r4 deliver detailed images. Plus, the A7riv has better/crisp viewfinder and screen quality. 👍 By the way, what are you looking it for - photography or videography?

[@hairlinedoctor]

@@camerathencoffee I want photo quality and nice video quality

[@camerathencoffee]

@@hairlinedoctor Hi bro, both are great cameras, as you're looking to do both photo and video, you should go for A7IV. What's your preference?

@@Marco-rz5kl Sure bro, A7IV will be a good choice ☺👍

[@petrstefek4438]

I eliminated the Sony A7 IV from the selection because of the flip-up display. I own a Sony A7R IV A and a Sony A7R III ... I wouldn't change. In the future, I always prefer the resolution of the sensor.

[@RonaldL.HaleyJr]

I will surely make one soon bro, as soon as I get my hands on A7iv 👍

[@mengshun]

Speaking as an A7rI V owner, the advantage of the higher sensor was a great asset until about a year or two ago. The advances in photo editing tools like Topaz has largely negated those advantages in all but the more extreme situations or where the situation is so voltile one needs the room to crop. I still love my camera but in today's market, I'd have to go with the A7 IV even being a heavy stills photog. Both are great systems - have fun with them!

[@camerathencoffee]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts buddy! 👍

[@synthesaurus]

the articulating screen a HUGE minus for many photographer who are not interested in selfies

[@mrwashur1991]

Until you want to shoot low in vertical.. the half a second difference to pull the screen out is outweighed by the versatility.

[@synthesaurus]

@@mrwashur1991 never been in that “position” . For that rare moment I can use my body to get that shot. May cameras btw have a screen flipping both ways.

The R is more affordable now😅

Hi there. I like the way you made the video. You made everything very clear. However, you made some mistakes as well. A7iv doesn't have a USB Type-A port. A7iv cannot record 600 MPS video. Et cetera.

[@camerathencoffee]

Hi Hao, thank you for sharing your thoughts bro 👍 ☺️. I meant Typa A HDMI... And yes it does record 600 mbps... I just rechecked.

To be honest..., the best comparison video at this time! I was planning to get a new Sony A7RIV A (USD.2,999.99), but after this video my best option will be Sony A7IV...

[@just_peppe_proto_86]

Is better a7RIV. Trust me

[@cameraprepper7938]

I have the Sony A7RIV and A7RIVA, I will not have less than 61 megapixels sensor (rather more) and I will not have less than 5.8 mega dots EVF, more likely 9.5 or more ! I NEVER do video, so I do NOT care about ANY video functions and I NEVER will ! I wish all video functions could be shut OFF and hide away from the menus !!! I wish that Sony will make the R-series completely still photography only.
