Liked very much this review, extremely complete, and with the right info for professionals. I own the Sony A7 iii and I felt the same it's just such an advanced camera that you can't believe it, it's like having played a ps1 from Canon or Nikon for 10 years and suddenly you switch to Sony and it's a PS4, it's such an awesome improvement that you'll never want to go back

Great video. After shooting both cameras for flying birds and stills of other wildlife, I chose the A7RlV over the A9ll because of the 61/26 pixels.. The ability of crop for a wildlife shooter is huge. I have the 200-600 and the 100-400. I can say without reservation that the 100-400 is the perfect lens for flying birds. It is fantastic on the A7RlV especially in the crop mode.

Thanks for the review. I have used Nikon, Canon, Olympus M4/3, Panasonic and Fuji X-T3 and finally settled on the Sony A9 and A6400. Overall, I think Sony has the best gear, especially in the mirrorless realm. Yes, this stuff cost a lot of money and I mostly buy used gear to save money. I waited almost a year before I sold my Fuji and had enough money to buy the A9 which is an incredible machine. I was a newspaper photographer for 35 years. When I first got into the business, I was using Nikon and we never bought new bodies every year. We used the same bodies, same glass. Updates were far and few between. Then I switched to Canon which I used for 20 years. Although Sony gear is expensive, it does a lot of things good and a lot great. Now that I'm retired, I have plenty of time to research my options and I found Sony to be the best option for what I do. Thanks.

I have had the camera since almost 6 months and it still continues to be my dream camera. Having started the advent into sony from the a7r and then the r2 the R4 really taken everything up by a notch. To get this kind of resolution on such a small body with 5 & a half stops of stabilization & an excellent evf along with excellent DR and the ability to attach light lenses makes for a very ergonomic instrument. Personally I find the menu system intelligent as it allows customization of all the buttons etc. The software in camera has improved so much that I tend to shoot most of thetime in jpeg or compressed raw unless I feel that the light situation may be tricky and require more post processing. Often the native software works better than a 3rd party (lightroom included). I use a lot of manual lenses fromthe film era & I am amazed at the quality I get from many of them - even in comparison to the earlier 42mp sensor. The increase in detail means that the sensor functions like a zoom allowing one to reframe & recompose in post. Hence prime lenses cantake on a zoom function. For design - fine art - composition - anything that requires that extra detail this camera reallyshines

I want to ask when shooting wildlife birds or airshows in general, do you shoot with the crop mode or go full frame? Granted the crop mode still gives you a resolution of 6K+ and a megapixel of 26.2 which is still higher than most APC cameras, but I can't help wondering should I still utilize the full frame, take advantage of the 61 mp and the 9K resolution and crop it later in post? Has anyone did a side by side comparison to see which one results in a sharper photo?

I've been an amateur photographer for many years. I shot Nikon for years back in the film days. But, I switched to Canon when they introduced the first affordable dslr. Then I went to Sony when the A7 was released. I currently use the Sony A7rIII with a variety of Sony G and GM lenses that suit what I shoot. I used to use battery grips with my Sony cameras. But, now with the larger batteries and a lot of my photography being travel photography, I find I don't really need the battery grip. I'm sure I'll upgrade to a newer model Sony in the future. But, so far, I haven't felt the need.

The Grand Canyon (and Flagstaff) are two of my favorite places. Do you ever do photo workshop / tours there? I am currently experiencing analysis paralysis in deciding which camera(s) to upgrade from my V-Lux 4. I'm torn between a Q2 and a mirrorless like the A7R IV. While I'm stuck, I may end up selling the V-Lux 4 and getting a V-Lux 5 for an all around use and travel camera until I decide.

Great review - I've had the A7rIV for about 2 months now and have really grown to love it. The menus intimated me initially too, but now I feel very comfy with them, and the "MyMenus" are really handy. The eye tracking is doing wonders for both the humans and animals that I have used it on. I moved over from the Canon line and feel great about the move.

That was the greatest intro disclaimer I have ever seen. Back on my home world we just say, " No, I did not say that." or "You have the wrong person." but you took it to the next level...wow, verbal art...Ok, just kidding, I do understand, after reading so many comments on yours and other YT channels how fan boys, and girls, of a particular camera brand can get their underwear in a bunch if they feel their brand is dis'd' Also, If their choice was based on your review and or recommendation of that brand they might feel inclined to feel mislead. But to your main point, You deliver excellent material and information for the average Joe, or Jane, to make an informed decision. Which leads us to the audience. it is our responsibility when we purchase a product to take ownership of our decision/choice... and not to blame....wait for it...you. As always, Keep up the good (excellent)work and keep'em flying...I do enjoy your channel. If i had the means i would purchase that bad boy in a second...a7r4. I would have to give up my xt2 and 16-55, but the gains would be awesome. Have a nice day...

@Kav Felfeli I own this camera. I shoot concerts and wildlife. Can confirm the shutter speeds need to go up just a tad to keep things sharp. I mean like literally one step up. (so, if you shot something at 1/125, you'd need to go up to 1/250).

Un buen vídeo. Personalmente trabajo con una A9 y el 200-600 G, muy contento con el equipo, es rápido, confiable y ofrece mucha calidad en la imagen. En cuanto al enfoque del ojo de los animales va bien para las mascotas, no tan bien para las aves que son mi pasión pero no hay problema pues trabajo con el punto flexible en S y siempre al ojo, conclusión, foto clavada y nítida. Ser rápido, previsible y conociendo los hábitos del ave, uno se puede anticipar a la acción. Un saludo desde España.

I own both lenses and amazingly the 200-600 is just about as sharp as the 100-400 even though its not a G master. So I wouldnt base my choice on image quality, I'd base it on the different focal lengths and close up focusing ability.

I have found that eye detect works best on birds if I use spot focus, but if the eye leaves the area of the spot, large or small, it will stop tracking. Still playing around with it when I get a chance with more patient and still subjects.

Thanks for creating this In-depth review. I especially appreciate the time you took to explain the various AF modes and what your experiences were like. The A7r IV is impressive as hell and I’m feeling a pull on the wallet here. I’d ask for some elaboration to complete your evaluation such as 1. How slow is the bootup process? 2. More talk on ergonomics. It was helpful to hear you like the small size and that your partner prefers the battery grip. 3. More high ISO thoughts? I’m intrigued by/the single Astro shot that you used in the review and hope your really explore this body’s potential for Astro enthusiasts. Mahalos :)

My Canon 5d Mk IV never failed or slowed down due to slow temps until I tried to take pics in -47 f (Around -43 c) I'd usually keep it in a insulated bag that also has my water bottles, which are boiling hot to start so they stay unfrozen. Only had my a7r iv in -11c so far, It seemed to do just fine for that. Have yet to test taping handwarmers onto the batteries, or running with USB and a battery bank adding power.

I use an A7R3 for my macro photography, coming from Nikon i found it easy to set up the quick menu on the Sony, so no need to menu dig. As for hard drive space i always do allot of culling in Capture One Pro which can free up lots of space. Strangely enough I never used the auto features as i shoot macro in manual up to 2:1x . I just got the Sony for the high MP, and now i'm looking at the A7R4 for even more detail and resolution.

From 1966 unitil now, but I moved to Panasonix Lumix over the yaers to now, I only shoot a Lumix G9, GH5 and their variations. My issues are shooting many sharp shots of birds in flight. The Lumix cameras I have,, do not have the fast focusing capabilities of the Sony cameras. I do not need all those megapixles of the 7R IV, but I love the auto focus. Anything else yoiu can recommend? My Nikons bodys are the D810 and D750, I have most of the lenses. I idid not b=uy any Nikon mirrorless camera's. I need quick, sharp, auto focus. All my best!

My best suggestion is practice. The more you practice and build the muscle memory, the quicker you will be with the camera and the more shots you will end up with. Even if you are just going into your backyard or to the local park and taking photos of unremarkable birds or squirrels or lizards or anything else, you're getting that practice. :)

Thanks for the very comprehensive and detailed review. I shot with Canon bodies and lenses for several decades, but found that even my small sized first generation Sony a6000 mirrorless body has very good focus tracking for birds in flight, and the lighter mirrorless bodies allow for much faster instinctive response time when out in the field with a Sony 200-600 telephoto. So far i've managed to get sharp images of powerboats, flying birds, and F-16 fighter jets which were quite far off and moving fast, which has me sold on Sony camera bodies. I was going to upgrade to the a7R111, but now, based on your review, the a7R1V with the improved real-time autofocus and tracking looks like the best way to go, along with the new 70-200 f/2.8 GM OSS 11 and Sony 1.4X adapter. for a versatile lightweight set-up.

Great thorough review and you really touch on a lot. I enjoyed hearing your perspectives! One thing I somewhat disagree with you on is the color science gripes you have. I think the Sony color science is amazing. Wondering if you have played around with using different color profiles in Lightroom as a starting point? That really makes a difference. I recommend starting with one of the color profiles and then make further tweaks using the camera calibration tab then save that as your camera RAW default for that camera. Thanks again and looking forward to your future videos!😊

I'm considering moving from a Nikon D850 to the Sony A7RIV - I already use the A7c and have spent some cash on good glass to go along with the Sony E-mount. I've also invested a lot in glass for the Nikon F-mount. In your opinion, would you change from the D850 to the A7RIV? I'd hate to sell off a bunch of high quality Nikon glass (and the D850 body!) if the gains will only be marginal, but I've already invested in the Sony Alpha system with the A7c (which is my daily carry) as well as the option I go with if I'm hiking or riding in the back country due to the compact form factor. I could afford to just buy an A7RIV, but would that render the DSLR system from Nikon obsolete? Thank you so much for your excellent content and fair reviews.

Hi, now r5 is here and what z your thoughts about a7r4? I’m debating b/w a7r4 vs r5. The only thing I don’t like about a7r4 is the lack of touch screen, articulated screen and lack of multiple raw formats, which are all in r5 with I believe almost close to Sony in eye tracking too. But glasses for r5 ridiculously prized. Being a7s3 announced with all these features, I believe it is best in investing in a7r4 for future proof. What is your thoughts b/w these cameras? I don’t care about video features at all? Thanks in advance.

Do you mind doing a video comparison between the new Sony Alpha 7C Vs Sony Alpha 7r4, since 7c has some interesting AF features and other things? Also if Alpha C can do 70% job that 7r4 does, then it makes sense to buy it since it is half the price of 7r4

I usually shoot Sony Video and Nikon for my photos. The last Sony camera I used was the A55. previous to today I used the Nikon D7000. Your video was very helpful and I look forward to learning and using the file menus and perfecting my skills with this camera. I loved your video but found the music needing a fix. Thank you.

The best way to learn a new camera is to go through the manual and menus to be sure you understand what everything does! Also, I'll be sharing a video on how I set up my a7R IV later this month.

VERY well done review!!! And just so everyone knows, the a7R IV and a9 II have larger bodies, including deeper grips, compared to previous similar Sony cameras.

Thank you very much for the review! This is stunning high res landscape photography camera, but it has some drawbacks, like reduced low light performance and also lower effective speed than a9 or a9ii for instance...So this camera doesn't really "does it all" camera, but more specified pro tool. In complement to this, if money isn't an issue, pro photographer should have a9 or a9ii and also something like a7sii (or wait and get a7siii). Another option, maybe more suitable for amateur enthusiast is the a7iii all around camera or a7riii....

How does this compare to the Leica SL2? I'm about ready to pull the triger on it
@sarfaraz.hosseini
@sarfaraz.hosseini 4 жыл бұрын
This packs in a lot more resolution and unbeatable autofocus, but I suspect the SL2 is more versatile because it has fewer pixels (i.e shooting in lower light), and the SL2 likely has better video. Also look through the lens selections of both systems and prices.

They are two completely different experiences, though I loved them both. My best advice is to get them both in your hands in a shop to understand which seems right for you. You're going to be able to get great photos with either. Also, if you haven't seen my SL2 review, it is here... kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYK6fpevoLSCgdk

The other interesting attribute of the R IV is that it is iso invariant at 320 vice 640 for the R III.

I heard that hand grip size issues were mostly alleviated with the larger III and IV grips, but this aggravated a new grip issue. Thicker fingers (or longer fingers in my case) are having a harder time fitting between the grip and some/many Sony lenses which have thicker bodies close to the mount. And by harder, I believe the reviewers mean too close, uncomfortably close, or outright too little room. Any observations on this?

Fantastic review, really honest and balanced, one question and one observation, question: I thought the real-life shots per sec at 62mp was 4 or 5 when using tracking AF ? Observation: I would swap from all my canon gear tomorrow, but its taken 20 years to acquire 35k of lenses, I cannot face buying another 600MM f4 prime for 11k and the adapter would slow the AF with this lens down soooo much frustrating as this camera is utterly outstanding

Just picked up mine today, I was hesitant at first. I finally pulled the move and upgraded from my Nikon D5600 crop sensor. I wasn't hesitant on the price, I was hesitant whether I can be successful with the Sony camera. I also picked up the 24 mm f1.4 G Master series lens, however it arrives in August :(... What do you think? good combo? If you want to give me advice on if the lens is correct matched to my line of work, you can see the types of pictures that I take on my instagram @ad_photography_co . No, this is not advertising my channel, just looking for opinions and advice. Thanks :)

I am battling the decision right now if I should got the Sony a7R4 or to upgrade my Nikon! I have the d810 and was ready to get the d850 and all I can think about is the Sony a7r4....... I cannot afford both. (Any chance that you have an extra Sony a7r4?) I tried. I can’t decide and your video has me leaning towards Sony again, I was leaning Nikon yesterday. Stresssssss! I really wish I could buy both!! Alas There can be only 1 Arrgggg no clue what to do Ty for you video ! ~Mike
