Sony A7C vs A7III. Why I chose the A7C. Review, Pros and Cons, Features, Updates, and Upgrades

In this video, I tell you why I chose the Sony A7C over the much loved A7III and why I think the A7C is the better camera.
I go over the new autofocus system, the new screen, gyro stabilization with Catalyst Browse, and many other upgrades and improvements that the A7C has. Stick around to the end of the video because I'll also go over some of the things that I don't like about the A7C.
I'll put timestamps below if you want to skip around or if you want to come back later for reference.

You discussed some of the things about this camera that a lot of other KZbinrs never did, and so watching your video was quite refreshing. I'm a professional wedding photographer branching back into video...sold 2 x A7iii's to buy 2 x A9's a year or so ago, for the additional dials and 20fps eshutter with no banding. I've done a ton of research on both the A7C (and almost purchased it) and debated about waiting for A7Siii to come into stock again. You mentioning all the improvements in the AF section were news to me, so thank you very much. Very well done video that's simple to follow along without all the repeat of other videos.

[@SourPlanet]

I upgraded to the A7C from a Nikon D500. It's a huge upgrade no doubt... but the game changer is the size. With a small lens on the A7C it's well under half the bulk of my D500. I don't have to plan camera outings any more.. the A7C can just come along for damn near any trip. Got the silver too. Takes me back to my Praktica days!

[@MattYamamoto100]

Yeah, you're right. I didn't mention that because I had already gotten rid of my A7iii before I purchased the A7C...so I couldn't do a proper head to head comparison. But from what I can tell after taking thousands of photos with the a7c, the image quality is very close to what you get with the a7iii. That being said, the AF and tracking on the a7c is far superior IMO...which will help you get more in focus shots. hope that helps! thanks for watching!

DUUUUUUUUDDDEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! I HAVEN'T EVEN FINISHED THE REVIEW AND WANT TO SAY MENTIONING THAT THOSE HDMI QUIRKS IS A MASSIVELY UNDERSTATED ISSUE!!! I didn't even know that was the reason my camera wouldn't film 4k when using OBS, goat review and I'm not even done. Good ishhhh

[@MattYamamoto100]

dude...for real! I REALLY wanted to highlight that because I bet a lot of people get stuck on that. Glad it helped you!

[@StylishIrisman]

Nice comparison bro you covered everything. You are defo leaning towards more video functions for your reasoning as to why you would pick the a7c. I’m getting the a7iii for photography and the evf and max shutter speed are a big thing for me. I also prefer the tilt screen over the articulating screen because you don’t have to move it out to the side in order to flip it up while shooting (albeit is somewhat restricted in comparison to the fully articulating screen I think I can live with it)

[@MattYamamoto100]

I hear what you're saying man. I will admit...it did take me a while to get used to the flippy screen coming from an A7III myself. If I was a pure photographer, I might do the same thing as well...but I'm very much a hybrid shooter. Thanks for watching! Enjoy the new camera!

Great review, I've watched a ton of them and none of them have been as detailed while still keeping a great pace. I've been on the fence jumping from Canon ever since the OG a7 was released. Just sold off my entire Canon-kit and have now ordered a a7c, really excited to get into the mirrorless world! I've been debating wether to go for a7iii or a7c, but this solidified my decision on the a7c I've got on order. Thanks for putting this together!

[@jasonhahn9754]

How are you liking it so far? I am thinking of going from Canon (90d) to a Sony mirrorless and looking at the a7c

[@MannYgfx]

@@jasonhahn9754 I love it! The camera and it's tech is night and day compared to my 5D3. There's so much this camera can do with ease that was way harder on my 5D. The flip-out screen is amazing! However, the body is pretty pricey - leaving me with little left over for good glass. Right now I'm rocking a FE35 2.8 ZA, Sony FE50 1.8 and Samyang 18mm 2.8. I'm really missing the high quality of the L-optics I used to have, and are (still) saving up for some proper Sony glass.

[@grenaclana]

what about recording in 10bits vs 8bits on the A7III? Is the A7C leaning more into the video line of cameras?

[@youareawesome8]

The only reason there's no eye cup is because the magnification of the evf is too small. Putting the eye cup means pushing your eyeball further more away from the evf. And you won't get even half the screen in view. Nice comparison, you convinced me to get the A7c. Thanks 😊

[@NickL0VIN]

This is one of the best A7C reviews on youtube! Don't know if you have cameras or other lenses laying around but you should do a gear/tech channel! I also sold my a7 III for the A7C for similar reasons. The tracking AF, smaller size, and the flip-out screen was the main reasons for me to switch and compromise the better a7 III EVF, custom buttons, and dual card slots. There's no better camera, but only better camera for your needs.

[@MattYamamoto100]

Thank you so much! My Onewheel videos were kind of a warmup while I learned the ins and outs of KZbin. I'm definitely transitioning to be a more camera/photography/filmmaking channel. Sold my A7III too. Best decision I've made in a while. Thanks for watching!

No lie you guys are tough... I've been thinking about off loading my a7iii which I use mainly for video. But I can't get my mind around losing the dials and c buttons. I've owned the nikon, Canon systems the nex5n, og a7, two a6300, and now the a7iii and with all the ups and downs to switching systems or even upgrading from aps-c to full frame have always been hard on the wallet... But seeing you guys make the jump has me thinking about the a7c for the added video perks and the fact I still love the size of my a6300 even tho it overheats on paid work lol... A7iv might be the move unless the a7cii packs in a bigger grip and mode buttons

Hi Ami, sorry for the late reply. Did you make a decision? I think the only reason I'd go with the A7III over the A7C is if I was a professional photographer and needed the extra memory card slot. The A7C EVF could be better, but it's not that bad....it's totally useable.

I wanted this camera so bad but it cannot do High Speed Sync. Im thinking Sony did this on purpose

[@MattYamamoto100]

I'm not a big flash user, so do your own research on this...but I've read of a lot of people having success with hss on the a7c. you just need to find the right flash. I think some on dpreview were saying that they could get no banding at 1/4000 with a V1 at high noon on a bright sunny day. So there may be hope! :) Thanks for watching

Battery life is better shooting with the LCD than the EVF? What kind of dark magic is that...

[@MattYamamoto100]

Right?! I can only imagine that they are upping the frame rate so people can more easily capture fast moving subjects for burst shooting

A7c is for KZbin that's it I have test them ,a7iii is more pro camera then a7c

[@rollercoaster3061]

Got my a7c, now I want a7siii 😭😭😭

[@MattYamamoto100]

lol. welcome to the club.

[@AlexanderShelestov]

Skip a7c, wait for a7IV! :)

[@comptoirdugeek7213]

I can't, No 50-60p in 4k :/, no 10 bits...if only there was that, for 1800usd. I would have liked

[@MattYamamoto100]

I agree that it would be nice to have those. But this video was for people trying to decide between the A7III or the A7C. If you need 4k60 and 10bit, then obviously, these two choices are out...but then you're at a higher price point. Thanks for the input and thanks for watching!

I think the a74 will have those features, but it will probably be more competitively priced at $2500 to compete w/ the R6 & S1.

@@dominicgray2187 I can't wait to see what Sony does with the a7iv!
