Can confirm that mode switching on the R6 is SO ANNOYING. Absolutely loved this review dude! Even though I own canon, I still regularly shoot on Sony and always enjoy it. I’ve actually been considering picking one of these up and you may have convinced me 👀

Makes ZERO sense haha! I still love canon, and hope they bring out something with some minor QOL improvements, and maybe open up to Tamron and sigma 🙏🏼 appreciate you dude! I’ve seen some used a7iv going for around 2k which is wild tbh! Wouldn’t be a bad addition to your kit if I say so 😂

I agree , I have been using Sony for over 15 years since they came out with the first Hybrid for video. Used Canon before that and PhaseOne Medium format. I sold my FX3 5 months ago and got the A7IV and love it. Do not really miss the FX3. The only advantage it had was 4K 120p and full frame 60p but I actually prefer the A7IV. Got a Tampon 17-28 and cropped 4K 60p is no problem for me.I actually like the A7IV more than the FX3. Do not know what it is, but I like more. I am a photographer and film maker and it is just perfect for both. Like you said, switching between photos and videos is amazing.

@elmaldonado Жыл бұрын
@@JonnyRoams It is a cool camera (the R6M2). I do love the FX30s and a7IV and I had the a1 which I loved. I just ended up preferring the RF glass, among other things because of the IS on the main ones. I don't understand why Sony hasn't built OSS into all their key lenses (24-70, 15-35). I had hoped that with the 24-70M2 they WOULD include OSS. But they didn't. :( Had they included it, I may still be on Sony. It is what it is.

@victortalley Жыл бұрын
I too switched from R6 back to Sony. I prefer the R6…by FAR! But I can’t afford RF or lenses, and I hated that IPB codec. Also the problem with the lenses…Sony owns majority of Tamron as a company (who do you think makes all of Sonys G-Master lenses). Of course canon doesn’t want Tamron producing lenses for the canon…they’d be funding the parent company which is Sony.
@victortalley Жыл бұрын
This is also why for Sony, Tamron produces awkward zoom range lenses. 17-28 instead of 16-35, 28-75 instead of the typical 24-70….because TAMRON makes the gmaster 16-35, 24-70, and 70-200. Sony won’t allow them to make a lens under the Tamron brand that’s direct competition

Hey Jonny!! I’d love to get some advice! Im trying to decide between the Sony IV and the Canon Mark II! I am a hybrid shooter, doing photo/ video (50/50). The downside of the Sony being the 60fp crop and a higher continue burst mode. I’d love to get your thoughts and general advice!!
@JonnyRoams Жыл бұрын
Do you currently own any Sony or canon glass? Canons burst is only better with electronic shutter which I personally wasn’t a fan of, as for the crop at 60fps for my own style of shooting it was actually beneficial as I preferred tighter angles for slow motion

@JonnyRoams Жыл бұрын
I’m unsure whether or not the mark 2 can still save custom video modes but I’d be VERY surprised if it can’t. Canon is still fantastic for sure however you’re still locked in to adapting lenses or the expensive RF glass. My recommendation would be try out the Sony for a bit, and maybe see if you can rent an R6 ii and see what feels better to you
@markshirley01 Жыл бұрын
Having now briefly used both, the rear screen is much nicer on the R6II. I really think this is being underplayed by Sony shooters, Ive used a few Sony cameras and they are great, but there are few things that are underplayed by users. The auto white balance isnt really useable (from a Nikon user perspective) plus auto iso really isnt the best. I believe the A7R5 has solved these issues, so ultimately the future for Sony is good.
