Totally agree. If you can’t crush it with any of these cameras, your problem is technique. Image quality and AF will be great on all (though worst on Canon b/c of the lower megapixel count). Consumers will pick which ever feels best in hand, has the glass they want/need and that they can afford. If you are lucky enough to own any of these three cameras, you win. Personally, I’d go for the Sony b/c I’m a wimp and place a high priority on weight. I need to hit the gym or something. :)

It will be the perfect competitor to the R5. My only problem is when. The other brands have nowadays more or less a coherent line and for us, its z9 and then the rest. Its like a big gap in between, you just look in envy to those that can warrant the cost and just sit, because there is no R5.

So Nikon always change model specification . Everyone was astonished by the high megapixel d800 which was supposed to be the successor of the D700. The Z8 will have to be a very high seller for Nikon, so a very broad camera spec and not a niche one. So I don't expect a high megapixel camera at all. At least not above 45 megapixel.

I'm a Canon and Olympus shooter, but after viewing this, if I had to choose one of those three, I'd probably go with the Sony. Overall, I preferred what I was seeing with the Nikon, but they totally lost me at electronic shutter only. Too bad, really. As for Canon's controls, if I go by the EOS R, which I own, honestly, I generally prefer the control interface on my Olympus E-M1. Finally, the body is only part of the equation. From what I've seen, Canon and Nikon have pretty closed ecosystems when it comes to lenses for their new mounts. The availability of more reasonably priced third party lenses for the Sony mount makes that system so much more attractive to me. I kind of wish that I'd picked a different brand when I decided to add "full-frame" to my kit. As solid, and reliable as my Canon is, a couple of years in, I'm really not seeing enough advantages over my m43rds system to justify the investment, and there's no way I'm gonna pay for any more of that "L" glass. It's good, but waaay too much money. Please Sigma and Tamron, get some lenses out for RF and Z mounts.

Fun video but I couldn't disagree more. e.g. a 24@30 camera shouldn't beat a 50@30 camera in framerate. That category was really a math problem - how much data is a camera pushing at any given point? And yes, the a1 evf degrades in AF-C.... to the resolution of the R3 evf, so that's not an advantage for the R3, obviously, considering the a1 is higher res in AF-S and playback, and the same in continuous. Just some bizarre choices. Personally, I think it's a tie between the z9 and a1, depending on which features you'd rather have. e.g. the 1/400-1/500 flash sync on the a1 (Which you didn't even mention.) vs. the ergonomics of the z9. I could go either way, *ignoring lens selection*, which then becomes a clear sony win. But the R3 winning this roundup is kinda nuts - I don't even put the R3 in the same category as these cameras.

So, I've shot with a Canon R5 and compared it to a Nikon Z7 both using the same Canon 100-400mm lens courtesy a Fringer EF-NZ adapter. I was shooting industrial photos of a 6 GHz microwave radio and its dish antenna mounted up on a tower but from the ground. I really loved the R5 body and its controls, extremely well though out. I also like the Canon lens, which autofocused as quickly on both cameras! What really surprised me was the resolution difference between both cameras. The Nikon raw had more detail than the Canon with the same crop. The Nikon Z7 jpg with in camera processing was far superior to the Canon R5. In fact, except for more post capability, for a well exposed shot, the fine jpg mode of the Nikon was very adequate. I was unable to process the Canon raw to achieve the same detail I got from the Nikon jpg. I was shocked! I believe the R5 does have an anti aliasing LP filter on its sensor while the Nikon doesn't. That might have made the difference. I was really ready to switch to Canon due to the quality of the EF line of glass and the camera's ergonomics. But meat and potatoes image quality kept me from making the switch. So, my next camera will be a Z9, and unless the Nikon 100-400mm S series lens, when it is available, is truly better than the Canon, I'll stick with being a Nikanon shooter, best of both worlds.

They all have their lens line ups. Nikon has some excellent lens now that are decent price and great smaller size. Canon has amazing RF lenses which I’m in love with. No C/A, fringing, etc. Even the cheap 24-105 F4 is spectacular! Sony 24-105 F4 wasn’t anywhere near as superb as that. I was a Sony shooter recently too. They do have some affordable glass that’s great though. Tamron has some great ones too. A1 looks like an incredible camera! Sony has been killing of for years and they are the ones who started this whole mirrorless full frame fun!
@joshmcdzz69252 жыл бұрын
It quite odd to think a sane person will splurge $6500 on a camera only to skimp on glass..when I see statements from fanboys like this it's obvious they ain't tried other systems. Canon && Nikon have a history of over 60 years of glass that will work on the mirrorless bodies ( sure some may not autofocus but you've got choices)..and these lenses have a character and not the clinical and digital look you get from recent lens (esp. Sony's glass)..

Let's be clear - all three are amazing cameras. If you own an existing model from any of these makes, there's little reason to swap manufacturer. We all gain from top-notch competition. I'm glad that Nikon seemed to have nailed AF. The interesting future is whether or not Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Fuji etc will drop their mechanical shutters or not & if Nikon manage to fix the banding issues that some are experiencing in LED-lit halls etc. The other interesting thing that Leica has done is pixel binning on their new M11 - I hope the other manufactures follow with their next models - lower high ISO noise at lower resolution or high resolution with more noise.

Great video. Many Thanks. Love to see a comparsion between the Nikon Z9 and the old Nikon DSLR D5 or D6 on the AF-C tracking front. Value for money is the key for me as an action photographer. 12fps is more than enough for me. 7,000 photos per event is already too much. Doubling it by treating the camera as a German MG2 machine gun is not the way forward. Accuracy is far more important to achieve an optimum workflow.

Don't misunderstand me - I enjoy and subscribe to this channel, however, this is one video I will NOT be watching!! Why? Well, for me these interbrand comparison reviews are, for 95% of photographers, irrelevant! Well, that's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it. The vast majority of photographers cannot afford or justify brand switching. If we are serious, we already have a significant investment in our chosen brand - which ever it might be. And, let's be honest, they are all great cameras and so long as the photographer is competent and takes the trouble to learn how to use them, they will all give stunning results. I am certain that each unit will outscore the other two in one aspect or another. To me it is far more important to get good information on how to get the best from one's chosen brand / model not to be made to feel either smug because you chose the one that outscored the other two, or dissatisfied because your chosen one was beaten by the other two. And, let's face it, we know each manufacturer will continue to fine tune the performance, reliability, functionality etc. through firmware updates so they will continually leapfrog each other as time goes on. Rant over.
@TheDeltaMoo2 жыл бұрын
There are also new photographers that watch these kind of videos to figure out which brand to choose. They might not buy a flagship body as their first but if that's what they're aiming for in the future, choosing a brand based on the differences in those cameras can be a good move. That way they can start building a collection of lenses and then later buy a flagship used or new if they can afford it then. There are also the people that are transitioning to mirrorless cameras and that's a good time for changing brands if they feel like trying something different.
