I Started Photographie as a serious hobby a year ago and bought the a7II after using my phone a couple months. Best choice i ever did and my glass collection is growing and will also be perfect with an upgrade in the future.
Great camera for non action shots. I personally had the Rii and used it for several years until I upgraded to the Riv. It still serves me as my backup body.
I’m still rocking the a7ii shooting concerts, events and some portraitures. Just get some good glasses and also learn your camera capabilities and its behavior on different shooting situations. One thing to point out is that you can’t trust the auto white balance on this camera. I always carry a grey card with me whenever I go out. Set custom white balance and it makes processing your images much faster and reliable.
I bought my childhood dream A7RII 6 months ago for about the price of a new A7II and I just adore it..those capabilities are unmatched and the 42MP resolution is crazy..I've become pixelfreak suddenly..anyways..the camera had just 25K expositions and besides famous “Sony corners” it is..how to say it..OP
I shoot with my a7ii. I’m a car photographer and use a sigma 50mm f1.4 along with a sigma 20mm f1.4. One of the best cameras for your money. I’m looking into a a7IV here soon to pair with it.
Im starting to shoot cars as well, could i see some of your work? I use a sony a7ii with a 28-70 lens. Would you also suggest a different lens for this type of photography?
I had the A7ii but sold it and got the A6700 because I needed video in 4k, stills are great and video is 10bit so yea was a massive upgrade, solved the overheating problem with a Gammer phone cooler and a dummy battery with the battery door opened 👍🏼
I picked up a a7ii in “used” condition from best buy for only 750$ with the 28-70mm kit lens! It was a amazing deal, and it only had 185 shutter count so I’d essentially call it brand new
I brought the sony a6000 and i fell in love with it . the one thing i wish it had was animal eye af but other than that a good lens and you cant go wrong with a6000
i use it as a video camera and its surprisingly good, i combatted the small battery by powering it by controll monitors power out and it goes on for days with that. The only thing i miss is 4k...
I have sony a7II and sony fs5 mark1 and I am very satisfied 24 mp in 2023 is very good thank you brother. it is possible to make us a video on slog3 I do not know how to expose well✌🏾
I'm a cell phone photographer (paid, published and exhibited) currently searching for my 1st mirrorless camera. I like the a7ii and found one with an FE 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens kit for $1034 new online. I thought by getting the more affordable camera to start, I could get decent lenses and upgrade the body in a couple years. Does that sound like a good fit? I shoot mostly landscapes/nature/travel stuff, no interest in portraits or video. Thanks
Not bad at all but that kit lens will be the deciding factor here, I would get the deal and then look to get a Sony or sigma 24-70mm @f2.8 constant to start
i cant just let go of my sony a7ii. i was planning to replace it with an a6400, but the full frame experience is just soo good, video quality on the a6400 is actually superior and crisp, but im gonna lose the handheld capabilities of the IBIS. ill stick to my a7ii for now and save up for an a7siii
If you can find an A7RII instead, it's an awesome camera. I happened to find one for $100 and now I'm completely immersed in full frame for cheap. Truly no going back now.
i used this camera second hand for two years. It really got the job done, but i must say the autofocus is not always reliable and the video specs are practically unusable for proper video content, since its only 1080p. Only reason i upgraded was because the screen broke on me (im not sure how long this camera has been used)
Before I got it Irdk but it’s pretty worn now lol but yes the video is unusable but I’m going to try and be the one to help people get the most out of it.
im getting mine second hand its only got 171 shutter count and its life is 2million shutters counts till you have to get a new one it comes with 4.5-6.3f/55-210mm 3.5-5.6/28-70mm lens but gonna get a 16mm 2.8f and two 256gb memo cards for 540 you reckon it good steal Nox. - Yesterday at 19:38
I want to buy a sony and I see that the a6500 has dropped in price but I am surprised because on ebay a sony authorized seller is selling the sony a7ii for 470$. Do you recommend me to buy it over the a6500, will I take more photos than videos?
The A7II is full frame and the a6500 is crop so the price for the correct lenses will vary as full frame is a bigger sensor so the lens will cost more.
Auto iso is on so it’ll read and change it if it feels it needs to, to turn it off just pick another iso above Auto which is usually at the end of the iso range and you should be good 👍🏽
Hello Mister. I have a problem. On my camera doesn't show me any video but when i check my sd card m4root i found them all. Can you help me please? On camera i can see just photos. Which setting should i change or do? Thank you, have a bless day!
I have been using my a7ii for years now, while it may be lacking a lot on the video side it was able to get the job done, but it surely makes up for it with photo, the sharpness and low light capabilities still amaze me to this day. Time for an upgrade though...just ordered me an a7IV :D
so amazon has it for $998.00 base model with base lens 28-70, I got a M50 mk 2 and just started shooting not long ago, im not a pro yet but cant afford the Sony a7 iii. will this be a good camera to buy for someone starting photography as a hobby?
Kinda hard to roughly explain this, I’ve only briefly used canon cameras and right now I use majority Sony so I can’t speak to much for what Nikon would be good, sorry 😞
@@christianjmedia great! Thank you so much for the reply, just one question though, I'm buying a camera (for taking photos, mostly), should I go for Sony A7ii as it is available for USD 850 here in India (brand new, sealed)
@@christianjmedia I probably will mainly focus on photography. I want to learn and see if this something I even like doing. I’ve always been interested. Im literally starting from the bottom all the mixed opinions has me all over the place. My budget was a thousand for a starter.
Still a dope camera, 24mp fullframe. If you need a photography camera look no further than this because for about 1000$ brand new is sick value. The thing where it doesnt bring much to the table is unfortunately its video because it can only do 1080p. Now while I believe the video will still look good, I woudnt count on it. That being said if u need a good hybrid and plan on mostly doing video dont get this camera... If you need a second body or something for photograpy (especially if u wanna get into wedding photo or something like that) this is going to serve well.
I just upgraded from the a7ii to the a7iv and gave the ii to my gf so she can start learning photography :) I think it’s a great camera when combined with manual or vintage glass. But the AF, battery life, and menu system are big drawbacks for me. If I were to go back I would buy a used a7iii instead of a new a7ii though. Wayyyy better value proposition for the a7iii imo. I do love how compact and very well built the a7ii is though.
Great bit. The content is so suited for agreement, you do grwat job. But after I was in the local shop to test all brands, I could not force myself to get sony. Compared to Canon, Nikon and Fuji, this reptilian stuff is just no-go. Display output and viewfinder, controls and buttons, just NO. Unusable compared to competition. I cannot recommend unless one handles the iron and is happy with the experience. It's so unexpectedly individual. After 20 years of thinking I could not care less about ergonomics, Sony made me...
Now im not throwing it under the bus , but . 1. The A7ii i herits a7i's bad iso performance as well as the green tinge issue - newer apsc camers beat it or match it in terms of iso performance actually 2. The ibis is really about 1-2 stop or 3 if youre lucky - at that price point you got the xs10 and a whole host of lumix cameras 3. It offers a terrible video option - worse than even the a6000 , thats kinda sad 4. Its also using a 117 point af hybrid like the older alphas , which is ironically worse than their apsc lineup At this point the only reason to pick up the a7ii is either you need fullframe or you want fullframe Xs10 beats it in every term other than sensor size The a6400 beats it aswell but only lacking ibis The eos rp for not a whole lot more offers a better take on the budget ff A whole host of ef cameras and lenses also await you in the budget lineup , altho dead - ef is still an overabundance of lenses
I found an a7iii for 300 with two lenses but my parents said I didn’t need it…. It’s such a good deal that I’m going to have to watch go to someone else 😢
a7iii + 2 lenses for 300 is definitely a scam. You should appreciate your parents tbh. A7iii + 2 cheapest FE glass like kit and 50mm are easy 1500 above
Its really overpriced for the performance tho... I could get a nikon z50 with the same price and be able to shoot 4k 30, have better autofocus, better weather sealing and a better viewfinder. Honestly, I wouldnt recommend anyone to buy an a7II in 2023
I still use the A7ii, I don’t shoot weekly like I did some years ago but a photography canceled on a friends daughter senior prom shoot 1 day before the shoot. I couldn’t tell them I don’t shoot anymore. Felt good to dust off the A7ii , and Godox 600.

1. The A7ii i herits a7i's bad iso performance as well as the green tinge issue - newer apsc camers beat it or match it in terms of iso performance actually
2. The ibis is really about 1-2 stop or 3 if youre lucky - at that price point you got the xs10 and a whole host of lumix cameras
3. It offers a terrible video option - worse than even the a6000 , thats kinda sad
4. Its also using a 117 point af hybrid like the older alphas , which is ironically worse than their apsc lineup
At this point the only reason to pick up the a7ii is either you need fullframe or you want fullframe
Xs10 beats it in every term other than sensor size
The a6400 beats it aswell but only lacking ibis
The eos rp for not a whole lot more offers a better take on the budget ff
A whole host of ef cameras and lenses also await you in the budget lineup , altho dead - ef is still an overabundance of lenses
True, Bu the only reason I do A7II stuff still is because my audience is like 90% A7II searches lol
@@christianjmedia ah thats why , thank you for that info
Love the camera still but it’s definitely lacking compared to the newer cameras releasing
@@christianjmedia agreed
Got a great deal from Best Buy for only 1000 bucks
That’s not to bad!
Same
When you say they degrade what does that mean?
Like the usable features on them degrade or become outdated.
I found an a7iii for 300 with two lenses but my parents said I didn’t need it…. It’s such a good deal that I’m going to have to watch go to someone else 😢
a7iii + 2 lenses for 300 is definitely a scam. You should appreciate your parents tbh. A7iii + 2 cheapest FE glass like kit and 50mm are easy 1500 above
assuming you buy everything used ofc
Life would be so much better if canon stuck to the EF mount
Use the adapter
lol it would but that’s what adapters for
Bro , move to A7iii, better battery , shoot all day with just 2-3 batteries in pocket. Low light video, 10 fps and more video settings.
I be trying to tell them the A7II is only good for photos and no not sports photos
Esta o la ZV-E10?
ZV-E10
Why are some sony a7ii looks big and sometimes it look small?
Hand size lol, they all are the same size should be
@@christianjmedia ooo now i understand
Honestly I think the a7rii is a better buy for like 50 bucks more,
For sure.
The battery on it (NP-FW50) is awful, even on 13 yr old sony slts.
Terrible
Just confirming, is this camera a bad baby?
If your looking for photos then yes it excels at photography but lacks with video.
Its really overpriced for the performance tho... I could get a nikon z50 with the same price and be able to shoot 4k 30, have better autofocus, better weather sealing and a better viewfinder. Honestly, I wouldnt recommend anyone to buy an a7II in 2023
Nope not for video I don’t recommend it but for photos it’s great!
The auto-focus flipping sucks on this camera tho
Yes 100% lol that’s the pixel binning
