Have u considered a pinhole camera regarding the tilt possibilities? U could just tilt it any direction u care & the camera will not have a temper tantrum and shut down on you.

[@TheArtist441]

This is where the really hard hitting questions come in. A7RV or A7C R? Is the R C that much smaller for better street photography? What if I want to use the camera for professional photography too, will the C R look like a small toy camera and not fit as well in the hand? What about the EVF, is the RV's that much better? Isn't the C R's shutter much louder than the RV which kinda nullafies it's use for discreet street photography? What if I get into wedding photography where dual cards slots are essential? What the heck, shouldn't I just stay with my RIII?? etc. etc. etc.

[@pkennethv]

Sure, as a Z9 shooter & growing up with DSLRs, I might be biased, but I genuinely want to know: Have you ever felt or heard anyone say they found the A7R_ to be too big and wished it smaller???? [I'm being totally seriously here - this is not a sarcastic jab] The thing that's always confused me about this is yes, I understand the appeal of a Fuji X100 / Leica Q style camera (having owned the former myself, as well as multiple Leica M cameras), but with these Sony mirrorless cameras, the lenses are still going to be the bottleneck of just how compact the entire package can be. And having a very small body on a large lens (even something like a 35mm f/1.4GM, which isn't THAT large in the grand scheme of things) feels awkward in my hand. Edit: haha this wasn't even intentional but I like how I said "having a very small body on a large lens" as opposed to "having a very large lens on a small body" because the former is actually what it feels like to me.

[@Soundwave857]

The biggest difference to me between the A7RV and the A7RC is that not only does the A7RV has two cards slots, but that they're both CF-Express Type A capable, whereas the A7RC has only one card slot that's not CF-Express Type A capable. I would like to have seen Jared discuss the FPS and buffer clearing on the A7RC, especially as he was shooting the Phillies game.

I cannot imagine to have this bigger camera on a pro gimbal. A7cII and a7cR are very good. I checked the new evf on the new model, the a7cII is definitely better than a7c (magnification is higher) and i found it very close to the a7rv. The a7cII seems to be the right body for hybrid shooting and price. If they had put the same price than a7c i would have try to upgrade but at this price i cannot afford it. Not a big deal, my a7c is very good to my opinion.

Hi Jared, enjoyed your review of the Sony a7C R. I'm looking to purchase a versatile full-frame camera that can handle a variety of subjects - travel, street, portrait, landscape, as well as wildlife and bird photography. Do you think the a7C R would be a good fit for this type of mixed use? Or would the faster fps and dual card slots of the a7R V be better suited? I'm trying to decide if the extra features of the a7R V are worth it for my purposes or if the a7C R will meet my needs. Appreciate any advice you can provide. Thank you!

[@antiseth3964]

This depends highly on what your personal preferences are. If you are a professional needing a reliable workhorse for day-to-day gigs, A7R V has the extra features you need like the dual card slots, higher quality screen/EVF, and higher FPS shooting. If you are purely an enthusiast, travel frequently and lightly, or photography is your side-gig, the A7RC is definitely going to fit the bill for you, and the extra portability of the form factor will be an added bonus. I would just encourage you to buy quality SD cards to reduce the chances of a card failure. I’ve never had problems with ProGrade cards.

[@thesharpercoder]

I am also a left eye shooter. Sorry, but that viewfinder placement is complete non-starter, for me. It is not something I would want to try to get used to. I have shot with a friend’s Sony 6xxx something and it is not for me. I do not know why Sony would release something like this, or why any left eye shooter would consider buying it.

[@SilatShooter]

Like the size but too many shortcomings for a $3K camera (for me). Wish they had made the shutter quieter too. Yes I know it can shoot in silent mode, but that's electronic shutter and for faster moving subjects may have unwanted distortion. And this is more of a stills camera, and Sony could have implemented the very flexible screen design of the A7RV, far better for stills.

[@gbwalther3198]

Yes. U are absolutely right. But u already know Sony. They would have to charge seven G, yes seven G just to make that custom flexible screen design for u. Who knows? Maybe, seven G is nothing for u. If so, maybe you'd better put in a custom order. 😎😎

Hey there, great job on your content - thank you for helping beginners like me, as well as experts! I want to achieve a top-tier alpha body like the A1, but I hope to wait for a possible A1ii update this year. In the meantime, I purchased the A9iii and felt overwhelmed by its immense power and file data management. Since I had only a few days to test it, and it arrived a week later than my GM 24/70 ii, I didn't feel comfortable moving forward with the 24mp. I think the A1ii might come with a 33 or 50mp, along with a possible GS and pre-capture, which I'm very interested in. If I want to build my collection with the holy trinity of GMii lenses but need a decent alpha body to use while I wait for the A1ii announcement, what would you suggest?

In 2023, a camera that can’t even do 8 fps in uncompressed raw… Even the a73 can do 10fps uncompressed.

[@Hodenkat]

I guess it depends on which system you're in already, but for a little more I'd rather have the Canon R5 even as old as it is now. Why is Sony still dragging along at 7 to 10 fps even shooting electronic? If this camera could do 12 mechanical and 20 electronic it would make more sense. Sony shooters happy with low fps will be thrilled with this camera, but after shooting at 20fps I would be frustrated. That's a lot of smack for all the trade-offs imho.

[@mikni4069]

The higher fps are compromised on none stacked, it’s 12bit and noticeable issues with RS making it rather useless for loads of the stuff you actually would use high fps for. high mech fps meaning 12-15 is in extended mode so there generally compromise not just bit but also often on Af, like lock on, evf refresh rate fake evf frames etc. It’s an endless list of compromises to get cameras like this to do high fps. It’s just never going to work very well. Do a stacked high fps and you never wanna ever do high fps of this type ever again. For majority having only 8-10fps just ain’t really an issue and those who want more probably just go with the older A9ii. I would not be surprised too see Sony do a A9iii in a A9C but at a 1k less. Personally lenses matters more, bodies are just going to be a constant levelling our or slightly leapfrog, I would never recommend Canon with their stands on thirpart choices

Sony is playing game with consumers. Sony intentionally didn't included some features. Those missing things will be added to A7CR ii - higher shutter speed, joy stick, one more custom button, may be the better screen(monitor).. So just wait for the second editon come out.....

Going to wait for the Sony A7CA1 😅.

Don't they have real-time backup to smartphones now? This would eliminate the con of not having dual-slot cards, which is a deal breaker for anyone with a brain.

That’s not a substitution, you’re not sending 100 gigs to your phone in seconds.

[@costafilh0]

why not? Is the connection slow? can't it do this automatically? or do you have to do it manually?@@froknowsphoto

Sony's AI focus algorithm favors FACES. Your dude doing the bating has his head and back towards the camera. The dude in the dugout is facing the camera. Of course the camera favors the dude in the dugout. The priority on HUMAN mode is EYES, followed by FACE, followed by human OUTLINE, followed by DISTANCE.

Micro SD card, I Zee what you did there Jared ;)

[@TheCollabCurator]

I have Sony A7iii, shooting in silent mode will ruin your shots.

[@kevc.2958]

how?

1 card slot in 2023 should be illegal.

5:37 If this camera were to be a NIKON, Jared's reaction to the AF fail would have been more epic but being a Sony, he played it down. The AF fail "happens every so often" but it "is not a major deal breaker", If that were to be a Nikon it would be a good reason for Jared to not recommend a purchase!

[@froknowsphoto]

Oh you totally got me. Caught red handed. Not even close dude. Stop trying to defend a lemon.

[@doubleo3605]

@@froknowsphoto I am only pointing out the inconsistency in your reaction to AF fails from one camera brand to another. There are several videos of you where you'd shred Nikon to pieces similar fails but it's all good.
