DPReview TV: Sony a7 III review

[@The22Healer]

How has this been four years? Such an informative and entertaining camera review. This is what sealed the deal for me deciding to buy an A7iii and with no regrets. Great to see y'all still going at it and off to new adventures. Thanks Chris and Jordan!

[@LurkerPatrol5]

You took the words right out of my mouth. I went from a canon rebel XSi to a sony a7ii after watching the camerastore review of it, but after seeing this video I knew I had to switch to the a7iii and I never looked back. Glad to see other people going through the same experience/revelation lol

[@luckynever8208]

the quality of production is incredible fantastic new partnership

[@JokingJay]

My thoughts exactly. The grading, framing, audio, tripod & gimbal use - everything feels really on-point. Even the scripting feels better-paced and more on topic, but there's still humor. I sincerely hope every video hits this level of polish.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks! The extra time to shoot these episodes should give every episode a new level of polish! Jordan @ DPReview TV

[@cameralabs]

A very cool move, especially as it means I now finally have more subs than Chris and Jordan! Er, for about another three hours. Good luck fellas and see you soon. x

[@jryn007]

I love your rap featuring with Kai ... but you never do that on your own channel :( LOL

[@chrisfeatherstone9691]

And Gordon Laing with the smack down haha 😆

[@Cagey7531]

There's a shift on the horizon for sure, I never subbed to DPR in the past, and here I am ... they knew what they were doing

[@niccollsvideo]

Thanks Gordon! See you very soon. Enjoy your viewer dominance over us, you deserve it. Chris@DPRTV

[@cameralabs]

I'm not sure you'd welcome much more of my rapping!

[@DarrylUK]

Congratulations on joining DPReview guys. Previous subscriber on The Camera Store TV and now subbed to DPReview. I unsubbed when Kai and Lok left DigitalRev, it shows the power of strong hosts. Here’s looking forward to some great DPReview content.

[@niccollsvideo]

Thank you so much. We need the support to grow this channel and we thank you for it. Chris@ DPR TV

[@MaksimYuryev]

Great first episode guys!! 👌 loves the intro (and everything else) congrats on the new venture, I’m really excited for you guys!

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Max!

[@stalman]

I could have watched 10 more minutes of this, and congrats on the move guys! And it’s pronounced DPeeps

[@iamivar]

Tyler Stalman same here, at first is was thinking that 19:20 would be quite the sit but now I’m surprised it’s already finished!

[@dandonovan1]

I thought it was a little short as well! Not sure if it is because the content is engaging or if it really was a shorter review.

[@jimmyhidalgo2680]

Tyler Stalman DP REVIEWIES!!

[@Gary_W]

Wowwwww Chris and Jordan!! Wowwww, I must be in heaven now. So stoked for the future of DPReview in KZbin.

[@dslrvideoshooter]

New digital home, same excellent content from two smashingly handsome faces.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Caleb!

[@cosyspeed1441]

Congratulations! It makes so much sense to team up with the DPReview lab team. We're looking forward to the upcoming videos ... and may your suitcase filled with inspirational Canadian snow always be with you! 🍻

[@photorectoby]

I am often asked which KZbinrs I watch - THESE GUYS! They are entertaining, they are SMART and they just consistently create great videos.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Toby! Your show rocks as well!

[@badoukhan8211]

Congrats guys! I’ve always been a fan of you both. There’s a reason DP brought you onboard so please maintain your style. Please do more lens reviews especially with the 3rd party developers like Tamron, sigma working to provide high quality more affordable alternatives to the big boys.

[@fjhphoto]

Absolutely EXCELLENT review, guys! And congrats on becoming part of the DPReview team!

[@galenyang2285]

It is so good to watch the second A7III review from you guys finding there is more useful information than the previous one. Good to see you at DPReview and wish it all goes well.

[@SirSnoozebutton]

I've been subscribed to TCSTV for about 5 years and it's been really fun to follow you on your journey. Really happy for you guys, and of course I've subscribed to this channel as well :)

[@chrisfeatherstone9691]

Congratulations Chris and Jordan! I’m glad you two are still going to work together and also excited for your future with the show!

[@DGBomber]

I think working with DPReview will make your show even better, big support from me guys!

[@BrennanMartin]

Hey Chris and Jordan, I've been a subscriber to the Camera store TV for years, I'm a filmmaker and I've loved watching your videos for reviews on lenses and cameras. Having seen so much of your stuff, this new video is the highest quality I've seen. It's obvious you guys have a bit more time to make your videos (like you said in your stream), and it really shows. Congrats on the new move, I think this is going to be a great partnership for you and DPreview which I knew about but never really visited. I'm subscribed now and I'm really looking forward to the new videos you guys will make. Bravo, and hopefully the subscribers shoot up like a rocket.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Brennan, I really want to take the show's production value to the next level. Make a show worthy of Chris' hair. Jordan @ DPReview TV

[@timwithers2866]

I don’t know why, but every now and then, I come back and watch this episode again. This video was one of the reasons I pulled the trigger an the a7iii in December 2018. 2.5 years later, I’m still very happy with the camera. Sure I’d love the extra resolution that the a7riv offers or the video features the a7siii has, but for an amateur, this is still plenty of camera and I imagine I’ll stick with it until the a7iv comes out and probably longer. BTW, you guys rock. By far the best camera channel on KZbin!

[@Gary_W]

24 mega Niccolls?

[@WildBikerBill]

Frightening thought...a DPReview hostile takeover... ;-)

[@youngalwyn1124]

bajigurwedangronde “ . . . this 24 mega-nickel sensor . . . “ 😂 What a way to launch their first video with dPreview!

[@mattli911]

LOL, I was like wait... did I hear that right?? haha

[@guyjordan8201]

15:27 --- Pinky and the Brain.

[@thephotographerseye5184]

dpreview is one of the first places I go to for camera reviews. Adding Chris and Jordan has made this the number one KZbin camera review site.

[@buyingonabudget1916]

We will miss the intro music and "welcome to tcstv"

[@MrZombs123]

Same here... ☹️

[@PostColorGear]

It will still be there :) Just different hosts.

[@thatjordandrake]

That track is 'The Legend' by my old band 'Platinum Alibi'. The track is on iTunes. Jordan @ TDPReview TV

[@jasonwolf7767]

I agree.

[@AstanaYuana]

Sameeee

[@TuckshopMedia]

Just WoW! Favorite reviewers and youtubers combined = Favorite KZbin Reviewers!

[@schtickshift4150]

Great review guys, I got a shock when I watched your last Camera Store video, my first thought was I hope you are not becoming bankers or something, but hey here you are with DPReview my internet home from home. I hope that you guys will contribute to the DPReview forums as well, especially to talk a bit more about cameras you have just reviewed. That would be the cherry on the cake as far as I am concerned.

[@ManeeshSaxena]

Hey awesome footage on Panasonic GH5 ... 3 quick questions A. Which lens have you used on gh5 in this video ? B. is this camera good for vlogging too ? C. Nikon Z6 or Panasonic GH5 ?..Which one is better for photography tutorials ? as I also have photography channel in India and now thinking of upgrading my gears for KZbin videos. Great content ..love your videos

[@MatthewSaville]

1.) It's DPRers. 2.) It never ceases to amaze me that people just don't understand how folks like you thrive on being as unbiased as possible when producing a review. It's a sacred thing, to be able to produce content, whether reviews or tutorials, in which you can express your thoughts completely unrestricted. Oppositely, when someone is just flat-out pimping a product that they were given for free in exchange for review, (and that's the best-case scenario; it gets worse from there) ...then viewers can smell it from a mile away. So, kudos to you guys for scoring this gig. I'm honestly jealous! Keep up the good (and entirely unbiasned) content.

[@niccollsvideo]

Wow! Thanks so much Matthew. It really is our chief concern to maintain the integrity that DPReview is appreciated for. Chris@DPRTV

[@V4D2]

Chris Niccolls yeah...to me , the main reason to tune in to TCSTV was your bluntness..your honesty..and the fun. ;) There's no BS. And you are good at what you do. Now.., you've got to raise the bar ! This video is a good start ;). It shows!, that little bit more care (and time to be able to care, off course) and one can already see where you're aiming to improve . Cheers from Portugal . Keep those videos coming.

[@V4D2]

And suggestions?? Well...Do more run-down-comparisons in-between brands _

[@MatthewSaville]

Agreed, as a product reviewer myself, the number one thing that seems to be missing from most others' reviews is a sufficient amount of "alternative options" comparisons. Most of the time, unfortunately, this is because either the reviewer simply hasn't had much experience with the full range of options, or they don't want to displease whoever "supported" the review.

[@arthurrmcphee4885]

Finally DPReview with some great video reviews. Good luck fellas!

[@liamriley9816]

Good to see my favourite youtubers moving up. Subscribed!

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Liam!

[@LyndonPatrickSmith]

Nice to see you're keeping the great Canadian landscapes in your new format. We the viewers want the fishing episodes to continue! Or at least I do. All the best at DPR, and good luck with the 'frozen balls"! ; )

[@hidekigomi]

Who just subscribed this channel because of Chris and Jordan - I did

[@niccollsvideo]

Thanks so much Hideki! You've been one of our long time supporters and we really appreciate it. Chris@DPRTV

[@dannycastro1826]

lol.. i did. Chris and Jordan are awesome!

[@JacquesGaines]

fo sho!

[@hidekigomi]

Sorry, Chris!! Ugh, no idea why I clicked "dislike" by error and didn't notice until now! Lots of love to you and Jordan!

[@Amsyar00]

Tbh i didn't realize this wasnt the camerastore channel..... subs after reading your comment

[@MarkHoltze]

Best review on the internet right now. Great work guys! Oh and very authentic and organic collaboration so much respect for that as well.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks! It's going to be a fun ride!

[@markwang77]

Please tell me you’ll still have your year end ‘best of/worst of’ with drinking games...or is that a no-no now that you’re corporate? lol - new subscriber

[@niccollsvideo]

Were gonna keep doing those for sure. Thanks so much for the subscriptions! CHRIS@DPRTV

[@xWood4000]

You held your word, yay

[@MartinOcando]

You guys have brought the bar for DPReview reviews up several notches. Now we are talking. Excellent acquisitions, both of them.

[@CallMeChato]

You now have the most authoritative photo channel. Great job. I would like a few more tech conclusions from the dp lab. And too bad you didn’t have much green to shoot but The Sony greens are bad enough to stop me from buying this camera.

[@timotius]

I usually watch your reviews on tcstv channel. Now that you guys have moved to dpreview, I clicked subscribe button right away.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks! We'll make it worth the effort!

[@cliflowry9433]

Great move on the part of both you guys and DPReview. Looking forward to watching your reviews in the future and great review of this fantastic camera.

[@erinwiebe7026]

Congrats on your move to DPReview! Watching from Winnipeg and happy to see you're both staying in Canada too!

[@NarekAvetisyan]

Wow! I'm really glad for you guys. You are the perfect for DPReview.

[@asebaninja]

This partnership sounds like the very best of both worlds. The best text reviews with the best video reviews. I just hope that you find something to do with your original channel though. Congrats :D

[@ShadowLacheisis]

Congrats Chris and Jordan! Longtime follower and now looking forward to what you guys do with this partnership. Also, thanks for playing “Don’t Stop” from the Party Hard game during the Pinbar section...this’ll be stuck in my head again for the next few days.

[@niccollsvideo]

Thanks for sticking with us over the years Lacheisis

[@thatjordandrake]

That track is 'Layer Me Up' from our friends at BeatSuite.com. Thanks for watching!

[@DustinBKerensky97]

Very good. Maybe throw in a quick bit of science from the DPReview guys on some of the features of new cameras. Some of us are fine with reading 10 page dissertations of how Back Side Illumination works and affects the sensor capabilities, but a quick 30 second run down of the basics would be helpful for many people. You could even have somebody at DPReview record it and edit it into the show.

[@richardbarakett4163]

Very happy for both of you AND all of us! Congratulations!!!

[@DJLsbVapes]

You guys are killing it, congrats!!!

[@nyee1]

Congrats on your move, guys. Loved your TCSTV material and glad you've continued your style of friendly, casual, balanced reviews aimed at the likely users of the particular equipment you're reviewing. Great job guys and best wishes going forward. Subscribing to DPReview.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks! We're having a blast making the new show!

[@StreetsOfVancouverChannel]

**CANADIAN PHOTOGRAPHERS AROUND THE COUNTRY UNITE** with this brilliant move on the part of DPReview... bravo!

[@davidccastillo]

Pick up the A7III last week and absolutley love it. Been taking pictures like a madman and even did a few vlogs with it.

[@JoseSanchezbze]

congrats on the new gig, Jordan and Chris. This channel was boring, but i will be sure to watch the videos here now.

[@niccollsvideo]

Well we absolutely hope we can bring a new flavor to the channel. Expect the same combo of entertainment and information. Thanks for supporting us! Chris@DPRTV

[@poopybutt8280]

Well done fellas, IMO, you are the most trusted video reviews of cameras on the net. It makes total sense that you move on to DP Review.

[@tigersea5968]

make dpreview great again

[@z352kdaf8324]

impossible

[@exinexi]

First step would be to change that old forum interface where you have to see each answer separately. I'm avoiding dpreview pages for that reason. 90s are long gone, guys.

[@z352kdaf8324]

>>exinexi 12 hours ago First step would be to change that old forum interface where you have to see each answer separately. I'm avoiding dpreview pages for that reason.

[@Cdmphotographixink]

No need to change anything guys, it's still a great delivery format and now your paired with a great sponsor. Keep up the great reviews.

[@yatbond]

Chris and Jordan, love you guys and keep it up!

[@-grey]

does this mean you guys have a real budget now too? that’s so awesome. real excited for you guys. and excited for what’s to come. congrats.

[@photographerjonathan]

Congratulations Chris and Jordan, , I would like to hear more about how this change came about, did Dpreview ask you guys out of the blue ? please fill us in on some details, and is the Camera Store going to replace you guys and keep putting out videos ? and Please try to be the first to do a review of the New Tamron 28/75 f2.8 E mount, and maybe a comparison with the GM on an A7r lll, sharpness, contrast, focusing, resolving ability

[@niccollsvideo]

Its something we've been working on for awhile. We certainly hope TCSTV will continue to flourish with the new hosts, Dave and Ev, at the helm. I desperately want to get my hands on the new Tamron 28-75. Very excited to see how it performs. So far there new line of lenses have been decent performers. Chris@DPRTV

[@quitelikeryan]

Loved your reviews at TCSTV for years, and will continue that trend here. Congratulations on the move - will be great for you and all of us I think.

[@HarrisonBroadbent]

'no one will use this for vlogging' - challenge accepted my friends ;) PS. congrats and good luck at DPreview!

[@Tornn222]

Why did he say that?

[@fernandoguerrero2895]

Awesome, my favorite camera review website and my favorite camera review youtubers!!

[@alexbalansay]

Please keep the 'Unsung Cameras of Yesteryear' series going, too :)

[@supertaufiqr]

The only reason I'm subscribing to this channel is two of you! Always informative and sometimes (yes sometimes) funny. Keep up the good work!

[@Tekgila]

Coming from TCS channel

[@thatjordandrake]

Welcome! Jordan @ DPReview TV

[@jmmott1424]

Thank you for a top quality production and the best A7 iii review on youtube. Best of luck going forward.

[@01banksjon]

"All of our balls our frozen" - Glad to see you guys haven't changed!! :D

[@wikedwhich1]

but freezing balls need to warm up by now

[@stevenrobinsonpictures]

I love the style of video you guys produce for your reviews. Jordan keep it up. Chris, we like your honesty.

[@sannederks-eijkmans9129]

Went to tcstv, had a heart attack, went here & subscribed. Good luck from the Netherlands, guys! Just got the A7iii, so glad the review was mainly positive :-)

[@thatjordandrake]

Enjoy, it's an awesome camera! Jordan @ DPReview TV

[@timgomes4810]

BEST INTRO EVER! Congrats guys! You couldn't change channels in a better intro lol And congrats for the DPReview partnership! You deserve guys deserve!

[@16-bit-trip5]

The Mega-Niccolls race has begun!

[@BartRos1980]

Wow Chris and Jordan, thats gonna be great. 2 of the best reviewers on yt. I still can’t get over the DP in dpreview though.

[@mattypaxton]

You the best Chris and Jordan, this video is full of MegaNichols. Keep up the easter eggs! Good Luck Guys! :0

[@bobsmith5405]

Followed you guys for quite a while, your always very honest and truthful your revue of the Fuji XT2 persuaded me to buy one and I have not been disappointed. Good luck with your new venture

[@JerichoWhiskey]

Great to see the duo stick together! By the way, I noticed when I subscribed maybe an hour ago it was 63k and now it's 65k!

[@JohnRobertsTV]

Congrats on the new gig. I hope that means we get content more frequently now. Please don't change anything as we've loved your videos at The Camera Store. I see you two as the friendly human interface to the nerds and tech data of DPReview.

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks for sticking with us John! You've given us plenty of great feedback over the years!

[@carolteater9456]

I wish you guys all the best in your new venture! I love your reviews, and would probably watch any show you guys made, even if it was about hockey, lol. To me, the details of your show don't matter that much, it is the personality and honesty that you bring that is the most important and enjoyable. :)

[@Minntality]

Congrats on the DPreview move Chris and Jordan! Sad to see the end of the TCS era but i assume it was a move for the better! Excited to see more of what is to come! Great first review with DP!

[@niccollsvideo]

There will be 2 new hosts for TCS TV, Dave Paul and Evelyn Drake. We're very excited for their new show and hope everyone will tune in

[@PeterMKent]

What what what?! Interesting move, it'll definitely bring me back to DPReview.

[@niccollsvideo]

Yay! Please subscribe and watch our show. We really appreciate the support! Chris@DPRTV

[@normanli2943]

I have definitely come along with you guys from the camera store to DPReview, of which I have been a fan for years. Just happy to see you two sides team up~

[@ChrisProuse]

Congrats!! Love the content - keep up the great work! 👍

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Chris!

[@jaishrikrishna9503]

This gonna be best photography channel on KZbin.

[@TechInspected]

I was expecting Jordan to slam on the brakes when they were told to stay in Calgary there. Lol.

[@WesternCanadianReviewer]

Awesome to see you guys still hanging in Calgary! glad to see you guys still giving us the reviews we need/want! Cheers to many more years of success and ... you almost have be buying a A7iii for my photography... almost..

[@GetOutsideYourself]

You know you're Canadian when you can't be bothered to fix your windscreen.

[@niccollsvideo]

Ha! Yah no point here. Two minutes out on the highway and its cracked again. Plus it adds mojo to the car. Chris@DPRTV

[@patbartholick7845]

Or when you call it a windscreen🤦🏼‍♂️🇨🇦🥌

[@spud1252]

You no your a canadain when theirs 4feet of snow and you still drive to work

[@raskolnikov1873]

I'm Canadian and I have no idea what a windscreen is.

[@jdfdc7]

Congrats! Best duo in KZbin photography

[@DetroitVideoDiaries]

Wow I loved this episode and the colors coming out of the Gh5 at night, was there additional light in that scene?

[@thatjordandrake]

Just the ambient light from the storefronts. The GH5 is an amazing camera!

[@DetroitVideoDiaries]

I have a question for you Jordan, I have a GH5 and A6300 already but I really want a A73 or GH5s . Which to you has less noise with more detail up to ISO 12800?

[@abinavram9774]

Here’s to hoping I’d now have two favourite KZbin channels! DPreview and TCSTV! You guys are such a great team and the episodes where you and Jordan go head on, like the rx100 vs lx10, were magical. I hope to see lots of those.

[@daviddeborja3897]

I laughed pretty loud when you commented "all our balls are frozen" Though I agree cuz I also live in Calgary

[@robertdavies601]

Excellent video guys, I’m thinking about selling all my Nikon gear to go to full frame I’ve got a D500 and the Sony A7iii looks awesome. Or would you start on A7ii and get more glass? Or should I wait. I shoot landscape mainly cheers.

[@Orions_Journey]

Wow welcome to DPReviews guys... still waiting on canon full frame mirrorless 😂

[@niccollsvideo]

We are too! I'm skeptical but trying to maintain hope that it will be solid. Chris@DPRTV

[@jasonwolf7767]

Or Nikon! Z mount!

[@cidmachado2287]

Great new team: the the technical knowledge of DPreview and the charisma and great communication of Chris and Jordan! Keep up this great work!

[@philg6757]

Nice work on your first video guys.

[@niccollsvideo]

Thanks for your support Phil!

[@charliewright7274]

This is awesome guys, happy DP review is keeping the real camera guys around. This is a great move for the both of you, DPreview is not selling out and it is right on par with what you guys already do and the way you compose yourselves. Seems like a perfect fit for everyone.

[@tinjos8306]

Congrats! I hope you guys review the BMPCC 4K

[@AlexMinor]

Congrats on the new show/channel, fellas! Really enjoyed your camera store content and will expect nothing less here.

[@tommihommi1]

1. turn off the stream 2. be early on this

[@luisfornero]

Congratulations for you guys, I love the way you do reviews and the clarity of the English specially for someone that isn't a native speaker like me.

[@vicwithav]

Man, I really need to consider the GH5.

[@TomRipley7350]

This is awesome. Been enjoying their content for years and it couldn't have happened to two nicer guys.

[@MrHaodoudo]

I need sigma and tamron to poop out more native e mount lens to finalize my switch !

[@Freeman93529]

Best review website with the best photography reviewer (video), nothing I can ask more!

[@denault3985]

I was a little concerned when you two were leaving TCSTV...oh wait, there at the new DPTV.

[@artmaltman]

ps: That screen where you compared +6 stops on four different cameras -- jaw dropping, very important insight. I had not realized how advanced the A7iii sensor is compared to my D750!

[@philaskey5788]

Good job guys

[@thatjordandrake]

Thanks Phil! You're a legend!

[@janekmorel]

The perfect blend of Canadian humor and camera gear. You guys are awesome!

[@OutlawFarmersRC]

I already did a timelapse video with my A7III. Just set it to 1 frame per sec.

[@Viktalphotography]

These don't know shit about sony!

[@thatjordandrake]

I like extremely slow shutter speeds and full 24MP images for my timelapses, neither of which is offered in the S&Q mode. The previous Sony Playmemories app was great, shame to see all that functionality go away. Jordan @ DPReview TV

[@helidaho]

I haven't tried it with my A7III yet but isn't there a Sony app for phones now that allow you to remotely control the camera including creating timelapses? Thought I saw that somewhere?
