Guys just get an A7Rii with a battery grip and two extra batteries and stop being gear heads. I've made so much money off this setup in my career for photo and video doing big commercial advertising work. It's insane how much people are driven to consume by these companies. In 18 months people will be rushing to sell their A7Riii before the value drops when the next model is announced...

Sidney Black i bought an A7 II about 2 years gap. The A7R II was too expensive. I never had any issues with the A7 II Workflow and the limitations on ISO and AF and burst speed were never important. With the A7R III on the market it definitely is Wirtz upgrading tot he A7R II now. Used price in Europe for a really nice piece is maybe 1200€ or if you do not need support there are Asian grey market imports brand new for 1300€. Will go for a well maintained used and be happy for years again. Maybe I will get an A7R III when the IV is on the market for a few months, maybe I will wait for the V or VI. With the quality of cameras there is little need for upgrades since some years. Ok, i never Shot a video in my life and do mit intend to do so

I bought the Sony A7RII a little before the Sony A7RIII came out even though I knew that the Sony A7RIII might be on its way, but I was offered the Sony A7RII for a good price, and I thought it still was a good camera and that the price suited me better! I'm not professional so the two SD cards do not mean much to me, and I'm also fine with the slightly worse autofocus for my kind of photography, and I'm also using a battery grip so the battery life is also ok for me. I'm still happy with my Sony A7RII, and have not regretted my purchase! Many greetings from Denmark

My a99 has 2 sd cards and once I got both of them to work simultaneously it really slowed the camera down and I had to go back to using one or the other so I wouldn't lose any shots waiting for the buffer to clear. The fear we all have if having a card go bad. I have been fortunate and had that happen only once in the last 10 years

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

I'll do more testing soon when I have it in studio but it was great out there. We did some night astro shooting and I was focusing in near dark just as good as my 5D4 although my subjects were mostly stationary. The viewfinder is better than the RII and just like the A9. Compares well to the 5D4 but the D850 is massive so not that big.

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

+Seth Cashman the silent mode on this will have less rolling shutter than the D850 in silent mode but you can see it in fast moving objects. Not portraits or landscapes though. If you really want to use silent mode for everything, only the Sony A9 used a stacked sensor to improve read times and reduce rolling shutter to virtually nothing

I’ve used both professionally and I say absolutely upgrade. The difference in quality is slight but it’s there. Pixel shift for product photography, 120fps in 1080 (finally) but really this is a quality of life upgrade moreso than anything else. R2 users will recall the frustration of shooting with autofocus and the dread of looking into that battery percentage corner (oh god, so I have at least 3 fully charged batteries for this gig??) This upgrade was the best choice I’ve made in a while. Very interested to see where they take it with the SIII though 👀

I was told you can make timelapses with the camera that get transformed into a video automatically. Maybe you can check the settings again. I have this info from a Sony trainer. So maybe, just the app is not working anymore, but you can still automatically create timelapses.

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

+simonbolzdotcom you can't. What you can do is undercrank 1080p video by shooting fast motion at 1fps which will seem like a timelapse when sped up but is not what we want. But it's only 1080p video, doesn't record a jpeg/raw image, and you don't have full shutter speed control like when using intervalometers

@arxvphoto809 6 жыл бұрын

We need more features for older models via firmware, like new color science, slog 3 etc. And I still don’t get why Sony doesn’t just change the hinge on the rear display to flip out then articulate not just tilt. Otherwise this camera is near flawless.

I had a friend lend me his a7r III for a week so I could compare it to my a7r II . For my purposes, which is honestly more still images than video. i can't justify the $650 price difference (current prices) for the minor upgrade. I did like the image stabilization but I have no way of testing the claim of 6 f-stops. It seems a bit generous. and going from A mount to E the cost of adding a new lens system is really adding up

It's probably not worth it. I talked about it in the full review and showed an example. You can see a difference but only when viewing at 200%+, there is a huge chance for error given that it is multiple shots and any subject/camera movement will destroy it, and there are so few times where you can use that kind of shooting with multiple shots anyway.

Does the R3 handle Metabone to Canon adapted lenses better than the R2? I had some major issues that a firmware did help, but, still sometimes issues happen, like the settings changes or weird electronic issues changing canon to manual...there is a number of times I have to turn off and back on. I have had a issue with the card slot, and usb port that I needed to repair for $800. Is there a A7R4 coming up, now that we are mid 2019??

@learningcameras 5 жыл бұрын

The R3 does handle the adapters better than the R2 but it's still not perfect and very dependent on the lens. It's also just about useless for video autofocus. I doubt we will see an A7R4 until end of 2020 at best. With the firmware updates and the lack of an A7S3, that signals that the R series is a little while away.

Better skin tones!?!! I have to respectfully disagree. Putting a capture of 3:18 in davinci, (although you can tell without even putting it into davinci), if you try to use the hue vs hue to correct the skin tones to match, the a7riii completely goes green if you try to match the 7rii. Not only is the skin of the a7riii slightly underexposed, but just look at the hands touching the door. She looks like a zombie on the a7rii! we need a much more controlled environment to determine this.

I see an underexposed viewfinder ? I understand most people do not need this but I face it in each and every wedding party over and over for hours at a time. The question is how those fancy mirrorless cameras stuck up to dslr competition? I have not seen a reviewer touching this BASIC matter.

but seriously though.. for the average consumer of which this video probably targets, it is really worth $800-1000 over the A7R2? In Hong Kong where I am the A7R2 is now as cheap as HK$15,850 (US$2,030) on the shelves compared to the A7R3 at HK$26,990 (US$3,450)

Not from a quality perspective obviously so you can still get the same quality on the RII. But if this camera is your daily driver, I really think the usability has improved to the point that it makes a HUGE difference. Plus I skipped Sony for my wedding cameras for so long because I needed dual SD cards so the RIII is a must for me. Also if you shoot moving subjects and not landscapes/portraits I would HIGHLY recommend the upgraded focus system/frame rate. Unless you are a landscape photographer, I'd probably upgrade.

@jkspepper05 6 жыл бұрын

thanks for your thoughts and you're probably right but I'm purely a consumer (non-pro) and as such have just pulled the trigger and upgraded by old A7R for an A7R2. The 3 is tempting but I really can't justify - maybe when the 4 or 5 comes out i'll upgrade to the 3!

Should I buy A7R2 or Nikon D750, very much confused :( , I didn't try mirrorless yet. Any one recommend to buy mirrorless instead of DSLR ? Till now I am shooting with D7200 with zoom and wide angle lens.

I would highly recommend the A7III over the A7RII and probably go with the A7III over the D750. Nothing wrong with the D750 but it's older and simply can't keep up with the newer Sony.

Yes, you can overheat these but they do have an option to let them get hotter before shutting down. Direct sunlight is your enemy. Usually takes at least 30 minutes of 4k video shooting in direct sun before they overheat but it really depends

how is a7r3 compared d850?

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

Neck and neck with quality. If you love the viewfinder and the more traditional style of photography, the D850 is great. But once you turn on live view, video, or silent mode, things start to fall apart and the A7RIII starts looking really good. Plus the D850 is REALLY heavy by comparison with a 24-70 F2.8 attached and much taller. I found it didn't fit well in my backpacks and personally I'm beginning to try to lighten my load so I appreciate how small I can make the a7RIII kit but that's more subjective as you may want a bulky camera with huge grip and the a7RIII requires the battery grip for that and still get's tight with big lenses. Also to get the high speed frame rates on the D850 you need to spend $1000 more on battery grips and D5 batteries and XQD cards. Also if you use lenses longer than 200mm often, you might have a tough time with the Sony lens lineup...at least until next year when more become available

Dan Watson is sony more reliable? I have the a7 1st version and compared to nikon, sony a7 start up look unreliable. Sometime, i receive error when turn it on. Nikon on the other hand, it makes me feel like a real camera. How is the iso on d850 when the scene is completely dark and how is a7r3? Is color on a7r3 consistent at different exposure.

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

It's tough to know about reliability this early. Hopefully by the 3rd gen things are getting better but who knows. Of course Nikon has issued recalls over their shutter mechanism on almost every recent camera starting from the D600 (which I had) so I wouldn't act like they have a perfect record either. In fact, rather than fix the D600 they refused to acknowledge an issue and instead released the D610 which was the same camera with a new shutter. I think they eventually were forced to issue a recall but I suffered for it and several other cameras had issues. I'll be testing the other items more when I have the camera for a longer period.

You say you can save a few bucks by getting the R2 but it's literally $1,000 bucks cheaper. I wish you'd do a real value comparison given the street price difference.

@learningcameras 6 жыл бұрын

Yeah, it went on a huge sale around black Friday and is still on it. Not sure if they will maintain that price though. From a quality perspective they are almost the same. The value is going be in real world use which for landscape photographers might be minimal but most others it will be well worth it. I shoot weddings and found the a7RII almost unusable without dual cards, better focusing, and decent battery life to name a few upgrades so the value is ABSOLUTELY there. But if you can live with imperfections in exchange for $1000 in savings, the quality is the same so the a7RII might be fine.

Still not sure why the customer should always be the one to pay for 'admitted improvements' - it kind of says 'we screwed up guys but hey, we get you to pay for it...' Not good. Not fair. Update the firmware and the operation to correct the stuff you'd did wrong, Sony. Don't expect your customers to have to buy a new camera every time.

+Ed Schirra I hear you but none of the big changes were firmware upgradable. Battery, more focus points, new shutter, dual cards, joystick, new video button, USB C...

Sony is supposed to be the company that gives us all the new technology. But even Canon now has built in timelaps. Common Sony. Give us timelapse in a firmware update right now. There is no excuse for this. I hope in your review you spend some time on the silent shutter. Can you shoot people walking. Or turning there head. What exactly are the limits of it without getting rolling shutter. You have my hopes up with what you said in this video.

Actually I personally owned the GH5 until the A7III came out and then switched to Sony a couple months ago but really not for the video and mostly because it also shoots better stills. My issues with the GH5 were low light and autofocus but it certainly had some killer features and quality which is why it was my go to for video. But when it comes to a hybrid shooter, the Sony is certainly amazing. As a pure video camera, I go back and forth between Sony and Panasonic as to which I like more
