Why I still use a 12 year old camera... | Sony NEX-7

[@Justin-os2zc]

Nice vid, I’m currently shooting on the A7RIV and I’m going on vacation in 2 weeks and I was considering upgrading to the A7CR. After watching this I think I may just take what I have and practice some more

Thank you so much for the comment 🙏, and man I would really love a Sony A7RIV myself

[@michaelj7069]

That's the camera that got me shooting Sony when it came out. I would just laugh at how easy it was to carry around as I had a Nikon D300 previously. Sadly I do regret getting rid of this because I'd still use it.

Why you wearing a mask alone?

[@keepinitezzy]

to be fair I kind of spit a lot when I speak for a prolonged period of time 😂 Also to keep my present identity a bit more concealed🥷 And to hide my extremely absurd facial expressions when I laugh 😭

[@dollarinhand3443]

It still is the easiest camera to use due to its Tri Nav Dial System ( exposure settings like aperture, shutter speed, and ISO) Unless you are one of those people who feels they need to change their modes all the time which is a pain on this camera as you need to go into the menu.

[@keepinitezzy]

Ah yes, it is helpful once you hit a specific mode, but I frequently switch between aperture and shutter priority a lot and I agree, having to go to the menu is mildly painful 😅

I still use nothing but my NEX-7 just because of the three dials, I always shoot in Manual Mode so it has been amazing, when I got it I realized how much time I wasted in menus trying to change just one setting, with the NEX-7 I can change anything with a quick movement. Oh, and the Sony A7C II has three dials also, that will be my next camera when I can fit it into my budget because I cannot go back to shuffling through menus anymore.

Meanwhile, I'm contemplating getting an FX30. I really need to stop getting myself broke. LOL

[@keepinitezzy]

Absolute dream camera right there, but my wallet says no 😂 To be fair at least you get to contemplate on an FX30 while I dream on a ZV-E10 😅

[@ZipporraStudios]

@@keepinitezzy save up for it! The ZV-E10 was my main video camera before, but I have since bought the a6700. LOL. We'll get to achieve our dream cameras someday, let's believe it!

[@keepinitezzy]

Definitely 💪

[@QuattroYT4]

i think nex7 would hold its value soon so dont sell!

[@keepinitezzy]

I've heard it does, definitely not selling it :D
