Why I Switched to Sony

[@visionz_n_media]

This is one of the most genuine explanations of switching brands.

[@JordanSubido]

I totally understand this. Only reason i stick with panasonic/lumix (from gh5 to lumix s5ii & s5iix) is only because of the IBIS. Colours can be manipulated either way. I dont care about autofocus and crop sensor on 4k 50/60fps hahaha my wedding shooting style is 95% handheld 😁 Just my 2 cents.

[@jpemile]

I find it so funny how all these Canon shooters swearing only by “colour science” and “dual pixel autofocus” slowly and quietly disappeared.

[@patriziodemitri]

yep, I switched also to Sony 2 years ago and was a huge canon fan boy before xD

[@JakeWeisler]

I mean they used to be right honestly. Sony started innovating, and Canon slowed down

[@richwinestudios]

Still rocking the R5 and 28-70 F2….Love the RF lenses but may dabble with Sony in the future. Just shoot what you enjoy.

[@JakeWeisler]

@@richwinestudiosthat’s exactly what I say - shoot with what inspires you

[@richwinestudios]

@@JakeWeisler Agreed. Just like cars. I've tried all kinds and have preferences but people miss out when they only buy one brand rather than find what works best for them.

[@YoHam513]

Thats funny you said how we all started on a camera brand. I knew nothing about photography. My wife and I just had our twin boys and wanted to take pics of the 10 years ago. We saw a nice little red Nikon D3300 and bought that. Next thing you know I fell in love with photography and upgraded to a D7100, then D600, then D750. Almost switch to Sony to get the A7iii but I was already havliy invested in lenses. So I stayed. Now I own a Z6, Z6ii, and Z8. All my friends have all different brands and they all are great cameras. Its how you use them.

[@ResizeFilms]

I shot on FX6/FX3 cameras always in Cine EI mode for all projects with no exception. From documentaries to commercials and even in challenging shooting environments like events. Not only Cine EI maximize all the sensor capabilities like dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio, it really helps maintain consistency in color and exposure settings across different scenes or shooting conditions, which is especially useful for projects with multiple shooting days or locations. With the low and high base ISO (800/12800) of Cine EI, the only thing you need is to use VND to control the light at all times and fast lenses to expose properly in low light. Works perfectly in any situation, image is always super clean that way. You don’t even need to overexpose in most cases. Only downside of Sony footage is that I find it sometimes a bit too sharp, the G Master lenses, which are great for AF, doesn’t help in that regard. But for solo operation they’re still your best bet. Cinema lenses like the Cooke SP3 makes a substantial difference though. Other than that, Sony’s Cinema Line cameras are truly amazing.

[@_Birdyfilms]

True

[@ItalianBroski1]

I use to own Canon gear too, but when the sony a7iii was released i made the switch. It was the fact it made my job easier. I think Canon as a brand is still great. Especially for stills. However, they haven’t done much to innovate the video side for there ecosystem. Sony offers so many solutions for creators. Plus having access to third party lenses makes the barrier of entry easier for beginners.

[@KenTVtw]

Same Switched from 5DIV, which costed way more than A73 Atm eye auto focus was the reason I switched And ofc the 120 fps

[@Pian]

@@KenTVtw 120 fps with sound at 1080p

[@stanleyhan5465]

The hotels scene in 4:24 looks increadibly clean and sharp. Wow.

[@RKKY-mf7fe]

I'm looking to get into a Sony platform for the same reasons. I'm coming from a Blackmagic platform, but I definately would not sell off my current setup, only add a Sony to it because they complement each other and don't overlap.

[@RayValdezPhotography]

Canon is sharp with the r5c(terrible battery life) and r3 but they dropped the ball by not making a R3C. The R3 is very good in lowlight and 6K downsample. The battery life is also great.

[@justesmond]

I still shoot Canon for stills, but I’ve moved to Panasonic for video. (S5ii). My reasons were no limits (codecs, time limits) and increased dynamic range. Panasonic is made for video. They don’t hold anything back. Real time LUT support, shutter angle, etc … I love it. I understand the reinvigoration from a new tool Jake.

[@sazanrai6210]

Lumix camera is real work horse. Very underrated.

[@samohara5187]

Started on Lumix Micro Four Thirds (which what Jake said actually is quite true, I've stuck with them since) and funnily enough, it actually helped with learning to manual focus because the AF was so poop. And now, Lumix from the S5 II is arguably in the top 3 AF systems. Turned into a long-term win-win.

[@JSHFilms]

Welcome to Team Sony! I've had my Sony FX6 since the drop and I love it!

[@raphaelliioo]

I also started with a Canon, but it was a SL3 ahah. Loved that camera, learnt all of the basic stuff with it but the time came for me to grow up. After asking all the professionals arround, everyone told me to switch to Sony while I was “just getting started”. Bought a Sony A7IV and I couldn’t be more proud of my decision. That camera is a beast and Sony keeps making great gear along the year! Looking forward to see some of your work with the FX3, Jake! 🫶

[@JakeWeisler]

I always wanted the SL3 because of the flip out screen 🥲 thanks for the comment!!

[@TerryDoesTech]

Sony low light performance is no joke. my A7iv can shoot at well over 100k ISO and still be 'saved' in post. not only can it be recovered, it still manages to look decent.

[@raphaelliioo]

I swear A7IV is a beast for its price point 💪💪🔥

[@DMRCapitalHill]

Dude for real! I have the 6700 and A7iv

[@djcova6235]

Can you simplify the color grading process for a beginner. Would love to simplify the cinematic look with fundamentals on Sony.

[@iosvannygarciavargas4844]

I soot on a Canon T7i my first camera, its APSC and Ive had it last 5 years, that camera has been with me since coollege and i sterted to use it seriously about 2 years ago, but I started to think i have to change it, because i want a camera that can handle higher ISOs and keep or improve the auto focus My first option was a Lumix camera, just to keep the lenses Ive bought last 2 years but the autofocus is awful. That"s why i want a sony camera, not a expensive one, i think about a 6400, 6600 or a ZVE10

[@paddy_cakes]

98% time spent crafting the perfect lighting for the scene 2% time spent securing that lav - ha, ha - love your style Jake - the fact it sounds perfect tells me it was the care free aesthetic you were driving for - 100% achieved.

[@adreanl.2004]

now currently using the r10 to shoot weddings, it's great actually, though not as sharp as sony, but still good, maybe I'll get the a6700 but the r8 is better in low light, and it's full frame. hmm

[@EatCoffee]

I owned Canon system at first, then went with Nikon, then with Fujifilm, and now I'm with Sony. I think Sony seems to be the most innovative. Without Sony bringing mirrorless full frame to the mass market, Canon and Nikon would still be making DSLRs

[@NathanKatash]

i sold c70 to get back to fx3 - the best camera and most complete camera i know - also sold my 50 1.2 for the 1.4 - so much lighter

[@dlam1]

Canon has been great for me in filming weddings and some other projects but I have been needing more. In my opinion, the color science is really good and it takes great photos and video, However, Canon purposely holding back certain features and lacking in video features versus Sony has really made me looking to switch very soon. Oh, and don't get me started on their rf lens selection, their price, and 3rd party blocking. Sony is better in low light, has better video features, more picture profiles like S-Cinetone which has been godly convenient in some of my work, and more lens selections from different brands and they are all great. Don't get me wrong they both still have their own downsides but in my opinion the downsides on the Sony outweighs the Canons. Plus, around my area there are much more Sony videographers than Canon and it would be easier to work with those people when I need a second cam op or just to rent gear. Canon has been making small moves but I think it is too late now with what Sony has been offering. They should have listened to their customer fan base like Sony has been doing. I'm like Jake also, being in the Canon family has really bored me and my excitement has dimished but using something new like the Sony has made me more creative and pushed me to try new things.

[@schoeferfilm]

Welcome in the CLUB 😃 I love my FX6 and my ZVE1 😍

[@aaronporterjr.9515]

I’m a canon guy and won’t see that changing anytime ever. But I friend of mine and I have always enjoyed the video quality that Sony puts out. I’m not expert but if you’re solely, or primarily focused on video then Sony might be your best option. I still enjoy my canon camera for photo and video and I think they just give me the best of both worlds for what I do. But, can’t knock you at all man, enjoy the new gear!

[@michaelrbradley1041]

Been following you and the FTF team from the beginning. Learned a great deal from you guys, and made the switch from Fuji to Sony when FX3 dropped. Everything you said about loving the sharpness is the #1 reason I will tell you, go grab the A1 (or at least rent and try it). I still love the FX3 for lowlight of course and long form interviews etc (anything that needs a fan) but still the A1 image rendering and sharpness... it's the one time I've felt like a gear purchase significantly impacted my work, and that was 3 years ago. Keep up the great work man!

[@Lathrop_Media]

Any love for black magic cameras? I am getting distracted by the 6k g2 - currently using the R7 & R8 with the 3 main RF 2.8 glasses, but I love coloring in resolve and am intersted in Braw with the blackmagic look. I was recording a podcast and needed the autofocus, but now am transitioning to more creative/narrative work. Thanks for the vid, great explanation on your thought process. PS - full frame is amazing in smaller spaces as well, and can really help to get good framing with the ability to be so much wider - it just opens up additional options, which is why the R8 has been a great companion to the R7.

[@JakeWeisler]

Black magic is so dope - huge fan of their ecosystem

[@BenWeichler]

All just tools at the end of the day, but use the tool that gives you satisfaction and the client the results they’re looking for. I don’t want to ever be loyal to a brand, especially with adapters making it easy to be versatile with the camera you use, but so far Sony has been killing it for what I need/want so I’m definitely gonna stick with them for awhile. Can’t wait to see more content from you, I’m definitely loving these videos from you 🙌

[@JakeWeisler]

Couldn’t agree more 🎉

[@CarlConroyDesign]

I would love to know how and what you film at these live events. I know it's not related to weddings at all, but I'm getting more interested in the commercial side, keynotes, conferences etc and would love to know more about what that looks like from a business standpoint too.

[@David_Quinn_Photography]

I was given an old Canon DSLR and stuck with the EF mount and now I am eye balling the A6400 because Sony bodies are just a better buy for stills and a EF to E adapter will do for my old lenses.

[@benjamin.kelley]

I started on my buddy's Sony A6000, and when doing research, I heard the Canon 80D was the best camera for weddings (then I learned about the Panasonic GH5). I upgraded to the R6 in 2021, and bought a second one in 2022, and after 3 years of filming with it, I feel like feeling like I'm mastering the colors and exposure, and the dynamic range isn't good enough for the image I'm trying to achieve, Clog3 sucks, the low light sucks, you can't use the screen and external monitor and record to card all at the same time (only R5/R6 hybrid cams), and there's some other rigging things that just don't work well for my style.

I started on Nikon years ago, I made the switch to micro four thirds for awhile to keep price and lens size down and was an Olympus fan boy for years. Recently I have been falling back to Nikon with the Z5. I may be selling out all of my Olympus gear to purchase the Nikon ZF. Still haven't been able to let go of the Olympus yet. It's hard to let go lol 😅

[@TamerDinc-t1n]

Canon's shortcoming is because it does not produce lenses that are light and affordable at an affordable price, like Sigma Tamron and other brands. Canon has this deficiency when it comes to missing lenses.

[@nightdonutstudio]

Damn every famous youtuber are using Sony now. That's why Sony camera is more expensive, and lack of firmware update, Less feature compare to other brand's offering. Other brands need to work hard to announce something really wow, so Sony would feel the competition in order to bring more to us.

[@abmstudio3678]

The only reason I have some loyalty to sony is because my film college made us learn on sony and red. And that's what I have my hand set on. Over time, whenever I rented out a similar priced canon camera to the sony one I was using, I felt hamstrung. That's all it takes for brand loyalty.

[@KissFilmNc]

I’m using the Canon R5C with the 50mm 1.2 and it’s really sharp. Also video quality it’s insane. Besides battery life I can’t find any problems with this camera a true hybrid camera…. But I won judge you because Sony it’s really good for video recording

[@NavolForge]

If Sony is the right tool for the job, then it's the right tool for you. I do think that switching things up from time to time is good to keep things fresh and exciting. I believe that if you have a system that already works amazingly well and makes things 'boring,' that means you've reached the prime optimization for your setup. Now, you should just remain focused on building your business and improving in other areas besides the gear you have. That's just my two cents, but great video. Honestly, videos like these can help brands stay honest and acknowledge what users want versus what they think is best for us. The R5C was meant to compete against the FX3, and in my opinion, it was a total failure.

[@JakeWeisler]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@seanfrancis7101]

Red shooter, I am on the fence about getting FX6, or the Ronin 4d flex for a secondary. Canon isn’t a professional option for filmmaking. If I see a canon on set, it immediately feels suspect . Also, talking about “bokeh” Bruh, GLASS. Full frame isn’t that big of a deal. My favorite camera I’ve ever shot on has always been Arri Alexa mini. Yeah LF is great, but theres no fuckinh way in hell I would shoot Fx3 over Alexa. I guess it all comes down to what you shoot and how you light your sets. Blue ruin was shot a shitty Canon C200, so hey, whatever gets the job done

[@NeroMC]

[@ytuser4431]

i switched from the sony a1 to the fx3 because of the double iso ^^

[@thegigabytesphotographyvid3158]

I shoot on both. But every time I shoot with Sony I come home and cry over color science. Then I shoot with Canon and come back and cry over shitty lowlight performance and weird auto focus. Bottom line is, I can fix that color but that Low light and AF... Nah. Sony for the win.

I suppose if I would have done a little more research I would have bought the a7IV as it has slightly more DR then the ZV-E1/FX3 and its over sampled and sharper. But also it's a kick arse photo cam. It just seems like the value king. But I use r6 for images and I don't think the a7IV is any better then my current setup. I think the r5ii is going to be a game changer

[@thaddeecaze3397]

Hey could anyone help me out? Why should all people not shoot in log? I shoot with the a7iii… thanks!

[@AtomicPixel]

You would shoot in log for the best dynamic range and with the FX3, you can get a clean output at iso 12,800 so it's amazing in low light. The times you might NOT want to use log is if you just want a quick turn around and don't want to bother with colourgrading.

[@patriziodemitri]

Shooting in log format is generally recommended for cameras that can record at least 10-bit color depth because it provides more color information, which is beneficial for post-processing and color grading. The Sony a7III, however, records video in 8-bit, which limits the color information captured.

Definitely worth a video but you absolutely can get by without LOG. LOG is a tool for people who want extra dynamic range to play with.

Log is definitely worth it. Better dynamic range, better lowlight (dual native iso values change between s log 3 and other picture profiles on sony) and more flexibility w final image (not shooting in log bakes colors, contrast, everything into image).

you want auto focus handheld crazy looking 120 fps commercial stuff get an a9iii people hire you just for that. they take you on. people don't hire here but as soon as word got out that my camera's on the way I started getting calls. your camera talks not that it matters.

Absolutely hate Canon colors, the way people make it muted orange and tan like everything is in the fuckin desert

[@edwink0]

Wrong move. It's the lazy choice because of the AF and low light performance. We work in the wedding industry and have used all brands - no loyalties because we don't run a channel endorsing gear. Sony image is brittle and video-esque. Truth is you probably should use a combination of brands, relying on each brand's strength for different parts of the wedding day. FX3 is a great body and we use the FX30 for our wide shots but Canon is the stronger image. In fact, Sony is the weakest image of the top video brands. The noise and APSC argument are compelling but the image quality is inferior.

[@JakeWeisler]

I don’t have loyalties either, and this wasn’t a “lazy choice” if you watched the video at all. And I absolutely agree - part of this video that I actually cut out was a long rant about how there’s power in using multiple cameras with different strengths, with the only con being it might slow down your editing to match them (which is a small con). Lot of my friends have multiple brands in their arsenal.

[@nateteahan]

Right now, we are actually in the process of building out an entire production house where we have Canon AND Sony gear. They both have strengths that are useful in different scenarios

I think some of the KZbinrs that are diehard Canon users are sponsored.

I’d sell out to Nikon if they offered to send me free lenses and cameras lol

[@OurSweetHideout]

You didn't consider the Panasonic/Lumix (L-mount) like the s5ii or s5iix? L mount alliance will pay off too, with DJI, BlackMagic and Sigma in the same group. but i guess everyone always debated between Canon and Sony, end of the day its the user, people these days are caught up following people based on what they see/hear, I like Panasonics, natural colour science and video centric features and tools it has, it's not even a cineline camera, but competes highly with FX3, since we have Opengate, shutter angle (which sony will release for fx3 soon), wave forms, vector scopes, it seems Panasonic have always focused on videographers mostly, It just the AF and low light in sony that people mostly want i guess.

[@madmancasacreativa3]

i switched from sony to panasonic and couldnt be happier. The s5iix is a goddamn beast of a camera. It brought back the love as it was getting a little stale for me with the clinical look of sony cameras.

[@OurSweetHideout]

@@madmancasacreativa3 happy to hear that, I’ve got the s5iix and a gh6, and I’m fair have used canon and Sony, and I just find Panasonic to have always given us the video tools we needed, now s5ii and s5iix the AF is much much better and they even gave us the best firmware update last week so I’m very happy!

You should have tried the Canon R series cameras to see how good all those technical challenges you mentioned have been addressed

If they release the creator 2 with a canon full frame , you Will go back to canon 😂😂

[@JakeWeisler]

Hahaha the Creator wasn’t the reason I switched 😂 and the only reason the creator looked so good wasn’t because of the camera - it was the lenses, the set pieces, and the lighting. That movie was just an example of what intrigued me enough to consider the switch
