There is no camera on the market that can much Sony a1 for bird in fly and action photography. It has no rolling shutter and the best focusing system . I started photography using box camera more than 50 years ago . I used different brands of cameras during this period. There is no better camera for low light and action photography , I am already using it for more than 1 year and I have very satisfied with it.

I have the A1. Bought the a7rv and sold it two months later. I prefer the stacked sensor, 1/32000 to shoot wide open in daylight without using filters, can use flash with electronic sensor and top dials for easy access. I don’t need a flippy screen or ai tracking. And here’s hoping that Sony will release a final awesome firmware update now that they have just released a firmware update that will lay the foundation for something big

Interesting comparison video. I just recently purchased the A7R5 and the A9 III and sold my A7 IV which I shot with for over 3 years. I mulled over my decisions for quite a long time because I thought I might want to wait for that A1 Mark II but there is no clear indication from Sony that they plan on doing a refresh anytime soon, I was intrigued by what I was seeing out there in regards to the A9 III for fast action etc. Your comments about the A1 seem appropriate in the sense that the camera is over 3 years old and getting a bit dated in terms of tech and form factor. Surprising that not even an announcement has been made on any future refresh. I have watched multiple videos on the A7RV and after getting it and shooting a few events at my church I am very impressed with this camera. I also love to shoot wildlife and although this camera is limited in FPS for static birds or wildlife its very good! For faster moving wildlife and sports I use my A9 III which is simply a BEAST! I can only imagine that when Sony decides to refresh their A1 line all the tech and form factor of the A9 III will most likely be in it. Not sure about the global shutter but with even an ergonomics refresh the A1 would benefit. Thinking about paying the full price for an A1 now seems ridiculous. Sony should lower the price.

Best camera content on YT! And your straight man act is priceless. Thank you

Dude you nailed it!!!

TLDR: If you've never used a stacked sensor camera before: grab the A7RV and a new GM lens. If you're already an A9 or so user, you can never go back. Thus A1 or a9III to come.

flash sync speed is a big plus for the A1 and use can also use flash in silent

Love your vids bro ❤️

Soooo sad I spent $$$$ on the A1 flagship, and did not get the latest and greatest Sony upgrades that should be a staple to the flagship.... Great video GWC... and come on Sony, at least give us a firmware update!!!!

I love you man, your humor lol I have a7iv but contemplating to get r5 if it's worth the upgrade but i'm a low light photographer idk how good the low light for the a7rv compared to a7iv

The decision is based on whether you have used a blackout free EVF for anything fast moving before. If you haven't, get the A7RV and live in blissful ignorance of how good it is. If you have, you already know what you need to get.

Non stacked sensors are simply to slow in fast moving low light situations. And the A7RV is no exeption. Stacked sensors are much better in focus tracking and produce far more in foccus pictures.

Waiting Sony A7R5 or A9 video i hope soon 🙏🙏

I’m an A9 mk1 camera user. I’ve got an opportunity to use a7r V for a few shoots. In the high fps burst a7r V is significantly worse than a9 ;-) As someone commented: let’s wait for a9iii or a1ii ;-)

Buy both. Then return the one you like the least. 🤣🤣 I just can't believe Sony hasn't added any firmware updates to give the A1 the A7iV & A7RV features.

😂Your comments re your kids make me howl with laughter, please keep it up. I have an a7iv and it's brilliant. Would love an a7v and an a1 and an Aston Martin to take me to my Lear jet. But saving for a helicopter takes it out of you 🤣many thanks for your realistic views 🇬🇧

I’d still buy the A1 because of the stacked processor. The A7R5 is not capable of performing faster.

As of end of May 2024, Sony A7RV is the best camera for both still and video. Please check its specs. Monirul Islam Dhaka, Bangladesh. 26 May 2024

The R version i would chose,

Buying decision is ONLY based on your ability to purchase the A1.

Simple question is the grip still as close to the lens as on the A1?

Love your jokes!

I will keep mine Sony A7RIV and A7RIVA !

Completamente deacuerdo con tu video Felicidades, hay que ver el rendimiento que da la Sony a7RV en fotografia nocturna por lo demas, esta es mi experiencia con la Sony A1:Decepción de la Sony A1, jamas volvere a realizar una inversión asi, y menos despues de lo que me ha ocurrido, Mas ahora sale otra camara con mas funciones, creo podrian actualizar a al sony A1, de la misma empresa o bien de la competencia, y mas baratas, Sony prefiere sacar otros modelos y dejar tirados los que tiene desde hace años, por otro lado quiero comertar lo sucedido con mi producto y manifestar que Sony no cuida a sus Clientes, ni con firware ni cambiando el producto este es mi caso: Ah si si la opiion de un producto no es buena, no la ponen en su pagina web. Un año después no recomiendo la Sony A1 a mi personalmente, me ha dado muchos problemas desde el segundo mes que la adquirí, y sigue dándolos, a lo mejor he tenido mala suerte con esta unidad, pero no me convence, jamás invertiré. Primero fue la wifi, al primer mes de tenerla un poco mas era abril, mayo, paso por SAT, ahora el color, hace como una especie de halos, como si se reventase, y ahora a veces no me detecta los objetivos y sale el número f. parpadeando aparte de quedarse colgada, y no tiene más que unos 10 mil disparos, y superbién cuidada, y con el 200- 600 me da problemas de enfoque es mi humilde opinión me consta que a otro usuario le paso lo mismo no sé si se la cambiaron o no. Solo quiero que funcione al 100x100. Y actualizaciones ni de firmware ni una. tocara otra vez enviarla al Sat y quedarme sin camara, lo buenos es que son rapidos y parecen eficientes, los nuevos problemas salieron despues

Sony is not known for adding new features to an older cameras. They are in a business of selling new cameras.

Dude, your humour is next level 😂

A1

A7R5

If those pre-release reviews can be somehow trusted m, the Fujifilm xt5 is looking like a bargain ….

Watching this video like I can actually afford one of those

r5 win

Maybe compare it inhand? We can read the specsheets ourselves

I’m selling my A1 for the 5. It’s already dropping in value and its resale return will only hurt more. Like he said, the firmware updates have been unimpressive and the 8k is almost unusable due to the heating even at the highest setting to take it.

Seems like the Sony A1 is more comparable to the Canon R5. 20 vs 30 frame rate and a few Mp less. Both with super autofocus but huge price difference.

Rice and tuna for the rest of the year

neither, but if you have a lot of money to burn, the A1, of course.

Your kids could eat potato.
