M only complaint with Sony color is the brown tones in my wildlife photography. My A1 is better than the A7iii, but it still leaves a little to be desired. I find Canon to be over saturated, and Nikon to be nicely neutral. My favorite is Hasselblad.

From inexpensive starter lenses from makers like Samyang and Viltrox, to mid-priced Tamron and Sigma, to Sony's own G-Master lenses, nobody else offers the lens options Sony does.

[@TheEightfoldPath_]

Canon 5D3 with magic lantern for static shots, Pocket 3 for moving and more actiony shots. 14 bit lossless is a menace, still got CF for 2k continuous RAW but shorter shots because filesizes, and then overclocked high capacity SD for 1080p lossless to use with longer shots (interviews etc)

[@waldovanderwaal]

Interesting video! As a pro shooter, I chose my system when I started (in 1996). I've had no reason to change, and I've built up a mass of lenses and accessories over the years. It is called a 'system' for a reason. Even so, I do use the odd 'off-brand' camera, for specific purposes. Sony's slomo is fantastic, though the buffer and trigger is a mess. Fujifilm offers amazing options if you want a general point-and-shoot. But overall, I think the bottom line is this: It is not about the camera. As longs as you have good glass and a pro level sensor, you'll get by. Frankly, I've bought tons of gear from guys who decided to switch - suits me down to the ground :) Pick a system and stick with it, there's no reason to flip-flop, it'll just drain your cash. And when a different brand does something amazing that your brand doesn't do - just wait. They all do the same thing after a while...

Agreed, I went from A7 III to S5 II X and the stabilisation is a game changer for anyone that's run and gun or casually documenting life (not shooting rigged up, on a set, with a gimbal etc) being able to just shoot instantly, anywhere - without having to think about it is amazing. It'd be impossible to go without it now I've tried it. Also really like how it seems more "hybrid" the way you can pick what settings are retained or unique between photo/video was something that never felt as clever on the A7 III. All the UI and controls just make more sense and button bindings are super fast to modify. Really impressed with it - the only thing I miss would be better AF like Sony which I'm sure is a focus for Panasonic going forward since it feels like they've nailed everything else and this was already a great leap in AF for them. There's something to be admired by how Panasonic just seem to not hold anything back and they just pack in as much value as possible.

[@fredriksvard2603]

@@Matt-fo4gg well it's not perfect (too much filtering unless you shoot vlog, especially in apsc mode which is basically useless, and rolling shutter). But it's so much more capable than the a7iii which is kinda antiquated now with 8bit and no 4k60. Not being able to get usable tripod type shots handheld with sony meant it had to go, i have had more footage ruined by that than by focusing issues.

[@marcuslindenlaubphotograph862]

I sold my Canon gear last year (2x R5, 16-35, 24-105, 50, 70-200, 100-500) and bough a Sony 7RV with 24-70 GMII. About 80% of the images in the past I shot were in the range of 24-70. If more wide is required for landscape and architect images I can often work around by stitching images. The quality of the Sony lens and the high Mega Pixel allows to crop. Hence I can easily cover 90% of the shots which I did in the past. Yes I can not do all the pictures I did with my old equipment and the creamy images with the 50mm were outstanding. On the other side I take my new Sony much more often with me. The combo is so light and small. Some other advantages of the 7RV are the amazing autofocus and the higher dynamic range. I have been a bit disappointed with high ISO noise but thanks to the new Lightroom AI noise reduction it can be compensated. Also love the Sony App for GPS synchronization. But it took me a while to get used to the Sony menu. Also the feel of the camera in my hand is not so nice like holding a R5. I only shoot still by the way. Overall I do not regret making this step. Sony really impresses me.

[@annekedebruyn7797]

Sony used to have an actual color cast issue on their introduction to mirrorless (which funnily enough was a magenta cast which had a gradient which was impossible to correct in post.) But that has been gone for the better part of a decade now. I honestly don't understand how it's still being thrown up everytime Sony gets mentioned.

[@Bill-NM]

One HUGE issue with the A7S3, is the COST. $3495. Throw in a lens and a person is looking at $4000-$4500. For that much money a person could get an R8, a Z30, a Pocket 3, a couple lenses for each camera, a microphone, some lighting, and STILL HAVE MONEY LEFT OVER vs the A7S3. So really, the A7S3 is absolutely NOT an apples-to-apples comparison. But - taking out the $3495 issue, are we then down to Sony vs Nikon (full frame)?

[@cameraconspiracies]

3 cameras that are all worse than the A7S III, and you spent the same money :) They are cheaper used, and the ZVE1 is basically the same for even cheaper.

[@Bill-NM]

Well, I'd argue, that besides 1080/240 and 4k/120, which of course for some people are VERY attractive features, :) a person would have more capability for more kinds of situations, for the same-ish money using something like the list of cameras/equipment I mentioned previously. No one is arguing that the A7S3 isn't a great/winning camera, but that's like saying that any given "expensive" camera is better than any given less expensive camera that costs a fraction of the price. Well, of course. Now for folks who can afford the A7S3 or ZVE1 (and a couple lenses), and are OK with having ONE camera to do it all for whatever that would cost, then OK, sure, the A7S3 wins. Basically, crowning a winner has to include budget as well as the needs of a given creator. But yes, for studio and slow motion squirrels and such, :) the A7S3 is beyond reproach. Vlogging?

A7S III + Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 is basically THE best single-camera solution on the market today. Period. I have the 35-150 and can't wait to get an A7S III because I don't need 60MP photos, I don't need cine functions, I don't need a workflow that takes forever to work through in Resolve, I don't need 30fps shooting, and I don't need a stupid amount of rigging capability. But what I DO need (and pretty much what every single other aspiring KZbinr needs) is the following: insanely good low-light performance and slow motion with really good autofocus in any scenario, 4K60 uncropped full frame, and the ability to record a clean feed externally. The A7S III does all of that, and does it really goddamn well. It's the 5D Mark IV of video.

If I'm going to be taking pictures or video and I KNOW I'm bringing my camera, I really don't care to carry too much weight. The biggest thing about the Tamron is that you really need to make sure you have what I call a "rifle" stance - no weak wrists, solid posture, and good core support. Because it's a big, heavy lens and I usually use it on my tiny APS-C body, it's actually quite unbalanced. But I get 225mm equivalent, so it's not AS much of an issue. LOL.

Nikon goes a little heavy on the reds. For photos, I just reduce it in red channel by 10 percent. or -6. For video, you could reduce the reds a bit in color in software before editing. Simple fix. I think Nikon Full Frame is doing a great comeback with ZF, 6Zii and soon to be released Z6iii with vari angle LCD.

@@nicedward7544trust me! You can turn it of but the sensor is loose inside so on a drone it vibrates and moves around like crazy! It has been testes by so many of us pilots! The only way is to glue it in place and I really domt wanna do that

[@ryaneb3]

Sony ZV-E1. Panasonic G9ii. DJI Pocket 3. GoPro 11. I think I have my bases covered (for now).

[@SMGJohn]

Panasonic G9II + LX10, you would be able to slap that LX10 ontop of the G9II and have a second view, actually practical thing to do, we often do this with GoPro but using a pocket camera is way better cause it has an actual lens that zooms. Perfect for interviews on the go.

[@zaddy6960]

How are you liking the G9 II?

[@TheBlakeEverhart]

I like your style. G9ii would be the workhorse with all its video tools, image quality, and stabilization. ZV-E1, while less reliable, would be a low light specialist and great B roll camera.

[@ryaneb3]

@@zaddy6960I just got it but so far so good, especially the stabilization!

[@ryaneb3]

@@TheBlakeEverhartLow light is exactly what I use the ZV-E1 for but Panasonics have a better look overall imo.

[@KaanSenel]

Can absolutely relate to this. Switched from the Sony A7S3 (because they didn't give us lens breathing comp which sucked) to the Lumix S5II. I recently switched to the Sony A7C2 again because of the massive support from companies in terms of accessories, lenses etc. The AF is also the best in the game. Won't switch from Sony again, lessons learned haha

[@miggyloz806]

I picked one up open box for $1998, still was able to register it aswell. It's been a great camera!

[@mattpna]

I did the same ahaha, I had the A7C, bought the S5IIx, 2 videos with it, instant regret, it destroyed some of my footages because of completely out of focus on some clips...(the most important ones) bought the A7CII instantly after

[@michaelbell75]

The S5II is a better camera than the A7C II and it was on sale for $1,500. Something you'll never see from Sony's overpriced cameras that still sell for full retail a decade after release lol.

[@mattpna]

@@michaelbell75 Totally agree, thats why I still have my s5iix, I know one day with some update the autofocus will be as good as sony, and during this time, the A7CII will be replaced by another model with some new functions which could be just replaced by some firmware update instead on releasing another what ever new model again.... ahah

Perhaps the G9ii? I think for most consumers Sony works very well and they still make some smaller cameras..think the a6700 might be one of the best choices or A7cii (passable IBIS). Hey, when are you going to test the Obsbot Air?

[@cb2000a]

I've got a G9 and am very happy with it. I use a Meike cinema lens with fantastic manual focus.

Right now I'm LIVID that my ZV-E1' s colours don't match my A7S III !!! Bizarrely when I take a photo they do but not video which makes red look more orange. PP = off and all settings manual and identical - HOW VERY SONY. (I wonder what the vegetation is like on blackmagic's side is like)

[@mathiaspfuetzner]

I'm looking to upgrade my camera for a while now. But till that there there is no perfect camera. With Sony it's a pity that there is such chaos in the in the lineup. Three camera lines all with overlapping functions and still most of them miss some specs. A faster burst mode would be great, but if you want to have more than 10 or 11 images/s you need the A9 or A1. If you want to get a fast camera with high resolution you have the Z9, Z8, R5 which all cost way less than the A1 and get more updates...

[@morningdrivecoffeebreak]

I love your videos and you are correct. Sony A7S III is still the king in my opinion.

[@rudolphlagarrigue5072]

Sony A7S III is still the king!

[@beepsperini4993]

I did the same. Got Sony and sold it because I thought it was better on the other side. Tried canon and ibis wobbles and dynamic range killed it. Tried Panasonic which was close however the autofocus couldn’t keep up and it was a little tank. Tried Fuji which offered an awesome handling,good menu system and autofocus. However crop sensor will never compare to full frame in low light and image detail. Ultimately you find yourself coming back. Got an A7Cii recently and truly love it. If the crop in 4k 60 it would be perfect .

[@Timperi.cinematic]

Man in follow you to soo much time.. And you are soo right. Maybe ive found the perfect camera for you... Lens depend but usually from 12 to 120 Internal prores Internal RAW Internal encoding RAW to prores ,hevc, h264,DNG and color correction and noise reduction. Easy to use Portable in youre pocket Perfect autofocus. What do u think?? U want to know this camera?

[@Timperi.cinematic]

Use youre android phone and use motioncam pro... Is that

[@studiodevis]

Hey! What about Panasonic Lumix S5 II X ... Sony BigFanBoy (yes, you are) ? Best in camera stabilization, fantastic colors, Phase Hybrid AF System. But I know what you will say ... NO Slow Motion. Everything about Sony is greenish to me.

[@MarioGarcia-cp2ql]

Why you don t talk about Lumix S5ll more often? It is very similar to sony a7sIII

[@MyMotherTheCar]

Sony cameras are like Glock pistols or Honda cars. They work so well they're boring.

[@amermeleitor]

I hate Sony. I still have hopes in Nikon, I mean they deliver the Z8 that's the best camera of 2023. If they can put some of the Z8 tech in the Z6III keeping the price low they will sell a lot.

[@cb2000a]

Canon usually runs a little red on the flesh tones. Sony seems to run a little greenish on flesh tones.

[@MassMediaArtistry]

Bro your content doesn’t even matter to me I love your character it’s just interesting to watch you in action with that said get a Canon R3 and you’ll be hooked

[@cameraconspiracies]

Spend $7200 CAD to match my A7S III specs?

[@TheLinesEnd]

My A7IV is the best decision I ever made. My model clients love getting cinematic portrait videos to go with 33mp photos.

[@gummoman]

Finally you understand that for ease of use Sony is very good. I use 3 types of cameras. Sony for agile and fast projects. Blackmagic for projects with better image quality but low budget. For large projects Arri. Canon has left my heart. Panasonic is doing things right and deserves its chance.

[@stevejones01]

The best camera KZbinr on my feed. Critiquing photos is hysterical. I like almost every camera I have more than the A7SIII. Dealing with the noise using S-LOG or Prores RAW is painful.

[@SMGJohn]

We all know your heart craves a Panasonic, the superior choice, for the intellectuals, like Dr Pepper.

[@intellatek]

The Freewell mist almost seems to have a slight ND filter/look to it, compared to the Ulanzi... But that's only noticeable if viewing the footage side by side with a microscope. That's right... A MICROSCOPE! I take my job seriously as a professional KZbin commenter!

EDIT: Actually just remembered I shot with the F707 in 2001! I have been shooting Sony since 2005 with the R1. Then in 2010 I purchased the NEX-5, their first mirrorless camera. I used adapted Leica and Voigtlander glass until I bought the A7R II in 2015. Then I started using adapted Canon TSE lenses until I bought the A9. That's when I finally purchased Sony FE mount lenses to take advantage of the insane autofocus. The 24-70mm f4 "Zeiss" and the 70-200mm f4 OSS, which shattered when I dropped it on set earlier this year. Disappointing build quality for such a costly lens. Just four thin plastic tubes holding the lens mount onto the rest of the lens and they all snapped in half at impact. I can't bring myself to buy the old or new 70-200mm f4... All this time and I still haven't memorized the menus. Probably because I'm a dumb@$$ PHOTOGRAPHER ; )
