Sony A7III vs A7SIII - What's The Better Value?

[@chrism.4600]

You make me feel good about my $1550 purchase of the A7-iii purchase a few months ago. The reasons I bought it are below 1, Its full frame, 2, Its mirrorless, 3, It has 24mp stills 4, Shoots vids @4k up to 30fps, (any more than 30fps and you lose that cinematic feel, and the 1080p mode isn’t bad either) 5, 10fps (high speed mode for stills) great for sports Those are great features for the price at the moment. Great video too, thanks for the info.

[@KalkuehlGaming]

Using "cinematic" as an argument for 30 fps is pathetic. You wont lose the possibility to cut frames to 30fps if you get more. Not everyone wants a cinematic feel and alot of Video footages are better with higher frame rates like nature videos or other youtube video styles. I am not saying that I wouldnt buy the camera because of this. I actually dont care at all. But the argument is just negative.

[@thefilmbrothers20]

Man, I was so close to "upgrading" to the A7Siii from A7iii until I watched this video. The thing that really seals it, is that as you say the A7iii is a far better Hybrid and for the work we do, that is the most important thing at the moment, until a little down the road we can then upgrade to a true video camera set-up such as the FX6 (the FX3 is really just the A7Siii with a fan). Many thanks for helping me to find the last jigsaw piece that proves to me the equipment we currently have is sufficient to get the jobs done:).

[@mohdfirdaus9050]

From the comparisons, not really a huge difference to justify the price gap. I think it really boils down to usability.

[@gadgetphilosophy8290]

A7siii seems sharper. More detail. The a7iii looks smoother like you’ve put a beauty filter on it.( less detail) I believe they’re may be something affecting it cause typically the a7iii has a downsampled 6k to 4k

[@Jon_bodhi]

I know it almost looks like a promist filter or something

[@Brookssmedia]

Why can't you use the A7siii for photo client work? Doesn't it depend on what the client wants? If the client isn't putting it on a massive billboard, even if they were iPhone has billboards across the country using a sensor that's way smaller 🤔

[@rjeption]

Short and sweet! Thank u for this 🤙🏽

[@jesussalomon3598]

What settings were used in the final comparison clip? The A7iii looks amazing.

[@blakebieker]

love the hustle man

[@timedia386]

Great insight.... using canon dslr but I want to transition to mirrorless and the price point for the a7 3 is mighty tempting ... thanks brother

[@Jon_bodhi]

Thanks! I had a canon for a while I made the switch for video specs

[@einshevamediacreations]

Thanks dude. I have A 7 III. Please tell the SETTINGS and tricks to make good quality video by the A 7 III. Or make a video on it.

Very impressed with your video. Honest and straight forward. I just got a 7iii. Need help on lenses.

[@jay312productions3]

I got you bro! I was confused but check this out. If these lenses are too high Sigma and another brand have very similar ones for cheaper prices but this kind of breaks down which lense for what your doing. And then finally 85mm is the perfect b roll lesne for cinema look as well as portraits. Check out the link bro! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIeZYoVjmLqpebM

[@cheloronaldo]

4:40 what picture profile are you using on both ? it really looks that there's a huge difference, but the picture profile could be a reason..

[@jordanbathe8772]

love the videos! what picture profile do you rock?

[@auxsom]

Awesome video, man. Excellent insight

[@profilmwork]

A7iii is a softer image , but handles light better. The A7siii shows more definition but the light seemed harsher

[@lorenzomena6233]

Great break down! 🙌

[@TrvaughnClayton]

4:25 just made me buy the a7siii.

[@SeanMiller318]

Good comparison video. And you made some good points. 👍👍

[@WestonWoodfin]

I have been shooting on a Canon 90D...I have found a few used Sony a7iii. I think it is time to just go for it and move to the full frame mirrorless game!

[@ghettofamaDMV]

I literally just made that switch from 90d ... one thing I miss is the flip screen. Absolutely no regrets Learning curb but that’s ok

[@WestonWoodfin]

@@ghettofamaDMV I have the Sony a7III now and I LOVE it. No regrets at all. All my latest videos have been made using it and I really love the way they have turned out!

[@Kenny-Ross]

We're in the same boat. I've had the 80D since 2016 and I'm looking to scoop up a 4k full frame mirrorless.

[@WestonWoodfin]

@@Kenny-Ross do it! I got one and I love it! I have a few videos using it!

[@Kenny-Ross]

@@WestonWoodfin Which one did you get? I had my eye on the EOS R and the R6 but leaning more towards a Sony full frame mirrorless. I never thought of buying a camera for more than $2k but this A7Siii has got me hooked. I really want to take my videography to the next level.

[@knowwork9]

Can you tell me how is it with you now cuz im thinking to buy one soon

[@coltonhart.videos]

Chyea cuz! A7III is great, but still want the A7SIII for higher 4k frame rate.

[@lorlooney1520]

Bruhhhh I really want that 240fps slow mo, buhhh I'm looking at used gear and might can get a drone, stabilizer, and dope lens with the a 7iii for the price of a a7siii...the dynamic range is ill too I want to see a low light comp first

[@EHendricksFilms]

Yea me too. Except I will be getting the FX3 I'm going to Keep the A7III for photography though.

[@JohnBrewsterMusic]

Awesome brother! Thank you!

[@travelneed3406]

Which camera do you suggest for beginners who want to take good pictures and video both …and which is best for taking pictures of hotels & Airbnb’s…out of A7 III/ A7s III / A7 IV

[@iloveyourvisuals878]

So difficult to choose between a good black magic camera and then the Sony a7s3 I have Sony a7iii but I want sharper quality Of course while trying to grab a g master to up the quality even further … any advice ?

[@kamoybryan8849]

Great informative vid bro

[@ValleySubRailfan4643]

What do you think about the Sony A7C? It's practically the same as the A7iii but with a flip screen, smaller and has better colors. The A7C/A7iii both have 24.2mp instead of 12mp as the A7Siii has. I shoot video and take photos for fun. No one is paying me so the lower MP isn't a deal breaker. I'm kind of afraid that there won't be any accessories made for the A7C since it's smaller. I would like to rig it out. If I add an external monitor or Atomos Ninja V to the A7iii and A7C will I lose face detection? That is a big problem. I also want the new menu in the A7Siii. Ugh. I would like to buy one of these three but I just can't make up my mind. I want the A7Siii but I know I don't need it. LOL. Mahalo for your video. It's great. I wish I was in Hawaii. :) Aloha

[@Jon_bodhi]

Hey! I think the A7C is great for doing KZbin, vlogging, and travel. I wouldn’t see myself using it for client work or portrait photography. You should get the fx3 if you want to rig it out :) If you’re mainly into video the a7siii is an amazing camera that will last for years! But it costs a lot of money so I would only get the A7siii if your getting serious into client work or making money on KZbin. The A7III is still the most versatile of the three. I’m just waiting for the a7iv so I can just take one camera to travel with.

[@ValleySubRailfan4643]

That's great advice. Thank you.

[@clairepianist]

Hi Jon, I'm so happy that I stumbled upon your channel because I also live in Hawaii! I've been shooting just for my personal enjoyment until now, but I'm looking into starting my own business with my A7Siii. It's the only camera I own right now, by the way. Do you think 12MP is not enough for doing photography business? Also, I will appreciate any kind of advice on how to start a photography biz in Hawaii. Thanks!

[@Jon_bodhi]

Hey! That’s awesome. After this review I’ve been shooting photos with the a7siii and I’m super impressed. I realized that MP is not really that important unless your going to be cropping hard or printing big. It’s more than enough to take wedding photos, family photos, etc.

[@georgelin6472]

@@Jon_bodhi is the color science on a7s3 better? Also due to the lower pixel does low light stills benefit from this? I heard others said it’s greatly benefit the video shooting but not so much in photo stills

[@scottburrow8293]

I think if you are intentional with your shots you’ll be fine. The beauty of higher pixel cameras is the ability to crop in. I have topaz gigapixel where I can take a 12mb file and blow it up if I do want to crop in.

[@tylindberg6950]

What would you say is the best first lens to get with the A7iii for the most versatility?

[@Jon_bodhi]

Best bank for buck is Tamron 28-75mm if you wanted a super versatile lens. My favorite first lens was the 55mm 1.8

Definitely go with the a73, there's not a huge difference in performance between the 2 to justify $2k.

Exactly what I'm thinking right now. I just need good low light, 48fps, and autofocus.

Hey Jon, I bought the a7iii partly based on this review. I was wondering how you deal with this issue: The pictures I take based on the image on the lcd is very different from the final image in playback. For instance they'll either be overexposed or too dark, but when taking it as seen through the lcd, it looked fine.
