Hey guys! comment any questions you have, making a q&a soon and would love to help in any way I can :)
Hi Adrian, what would yo recommend me to buy between the A7, A7ii and the A7iii? Also, would you recommend me to wait until October or November to see if they drop the prices? Cheers
Joaquín Fernández in my opinion, I don’t see the a7iii dropping in price any time soon. That would be the ideal camera to have the easiest shoots, because of the autofocus and IS. However, if you want to leave room for a good lens, maybe go for the a7ii. It really depends on your budget but the a7iii does 4K as well, so it’s very attractive!
Adrian Mendoza cool! Thanks for the answer, Adrian.
In my case I’m just looking to have a camera for eventually take good sharp images (I do landscape photography when I have the time). That’s why I’m looking to choose the A7 over the A7ii nd A7iii, because sounds that can do the job without paying the triple 😅.
My only concern is the lens. Like, which one should I get with this A7 (if, as you said, it should have IS)?
@@joaquin.f a7 is definitely a good buy, this is a good starter lens amzn.to/2Z1KaHz
I did a lot with this one when I first started using my sony
Hi Adrian, I noticed color fluctuations in your video. Is it because of the A7iis recording limit/overheat?
I got an A7 and I love it. I don't even care about the A7iii right now lol. I'm more of a "how far can I go with what I got" type of photographer bc it's fun to see how far u can push.
Kill it with the a7 and when you learn with it, grow your business with it, enjoy getting a $3k camera :D
Hi. Do you have a site with the photos you've done with the A7? I am considering a sony camera but not sure which one I'd like to get.
michael reyes yes my flickr is www.flickr.com/photos/979photoanddesign/ I had a Nikon D5300 before that
Curly Crown which albums were done specifically and soley with your A7?
michael reyes the newest 3 or 4 should be top of my feed
The a7 in 2019 is hundreds less now. It's still an amazing camera and just because a new model is out, it's even cheaper and so that is amazing!
Got a very lightly used one with kit lens, extra charger and 3 batteries for $580 off ebay!
Can't complain. However it is definitely the original a7, they improved many things afterwards but hey you can't have everytying. It does what I bought it for: take gorgeous photos with vintage lenses - and it it nice for video as well IMHO.
@Matt Nguyen yep, thank u for not outbidding me!
Still prefer the ii, IBIS allows better use of all my old vintage lenses with image stabilization. Good video good discussion.
IBIS makes all the difference with vintage lenses.
Thanks for the comments, guys! I am between the two cameras and I am dipping into Vintage lenses. What are your expeiences with that? Have you used both cameras? how much "shutter speed" i get with the IBIS?
@@tim8431 so does a tripod
Good video, however a lot of differences that you haven't mentioned:
1. Larger grip (more comfortable, especially when using larger lenses - subjective though), also makes it weight a bit more (556g vs 416g).
2. A7 and A7ii comes with 25 contrast detect Auto Focus Points & 117 Phase Detection AF Points, A7II offers 30% faster AF Speed and 50% better tracking (most noticeable to me when using lock-on focus).
3. 50 MB/s (A7ii) vs 28 MB/s bit rate on videos.
4. 1 extra programmable button on the A7ii.
Overall, both are good value-for-money cameras, especially for those entering the full-frame realm, or changing to sony to see what is all about. I think main points of difference would be the IBIS (which you have spoken about) and the better autofocus system. Despite all of this, I must say $1000 for a full frame camera (A7) very suitable to travel photography is a bargain, especially if you wait for cashback or % off deals for further discounts!
THANKS. That's what I was looking for. In my country you can find A7 for less than 600 USD. But A7II still costs about 1000. I think it's not a time for me to switch from APS-C.
Two biggest differences are on sensor phase detection focus and full metal lens mount. Also, A7ii has much more ergonomic grip and shutter button placement. Body is all magnesium vs plastic on A7. Better OVF resolution. Next gen processor. It is totally worth $600 premium. And A7iii, if you have the dough, is even better value. Much better. Although, with 35mm attached to it, A7 makes one hell of a street beater rig.
for those of us who check this video out yearrrrrrssss later: the price difference is even less between the two. But what you will find is the screen is so much better on the a7ii, the battery life is improved, the grip is bigger and the IBIS. I would say all of those features are worth an extra 3-400 to get the 7ii
Thank u !!
@@shelots all good
Sorry I didn't watch your video before I purchased my Sony a7II. I love this camera, but would have loved to save $600 dollars, and bought a new lens. I was a devoted Minolta photographer for many many years, so that's why I bought a Sony, cause they said my Minolta lenses would be compatible with Sony, which some are. I bought the converter also. I started taking pictures when I was stationed in Korea in 1958/9. I developed my black and white pics on base. When I got home I bought my first Minolta T100 and started taking wedding photos. I just like shooting landscape and candid shots now, (I'm 82) so don't think I could handle weddings anymore. Liked your video, but was hopping for more detailed information on shooting whit the Sony a7II. Thanks so much, keep up the good work!
A7 has slow autofocus compared to A7II? It's definitely slower than A7RII. Use it with Samyang/Rokinon 35mm f2.8 FE AF you get a auto focus and an excellent street camera. Small, compact and super image quality.
Which one do you use? I would not use the A7 for street photography because of the shutter KLACK which can be heard from far away!
I bought the A7 used online a while back then got a 55 f/1.8 Minolta Lens and 28mm Pentax Super Takumar Lens I have gotten very impressive results on this bad boy, focus peaking is such a treat on the A7 series so much fun learning these cameras. As amazing as the new MK3 is coming out the A7 is still a great value if one just wants to learn the basics.
Rain Santiago and honestly I took the a7 and used it for a wedding, which, in my book, if it can get results for a wedding, it’s a GREAT camera! Nice, it’s good to get lenses like that and practice manual focus 👍🏼
Running on a tight budget and wanting a full frame camera (mostly for low light performance because I want to take pictures of my kids indoors during winter) I settled on a used Sony A7 with three lenses and a flash. It cost me about 60 dollars.
I was glad to see your video. I hope I made the right call, haven’t gotten the gear jet 😅
how was all that only $60?
I got the A7II over the A7 as I shoot with a lot of vintage glass and the IBIS is fantastic to shoot with vintage lenses.
A7 ii is now 900 , I'm enjoying it since last year
I ordered the a7 with kitlens for 900 euros but cancelled it when I saw a deal on the Sony a7ii with kitlens for 1100 euros, not a big difference but that extra grip and better weather sealing is something that looks really nice! Great video!
Martin Kaller oh yea, a7 would be the way to go for that good price! Thank you Martin, any kind of videos or tutorials you’d like to see from me in the future just let me know 🤓📸
If you care about shooting stills, the in body image stabilisation of the A7II allows you to go as slow as 1/30 of a second (or even lower) to allow for a better exposure in low light. Sensor stabilisation is an amazing and rare feature among full frame cameras, and makes the A7II, at least in my humble opinion, a much better choice that the A7.
Does everybody in this comment section have a problem with using a tripod even a monopod it's really not that difficult
Thanks for the video, the A7 ($998 with the 28mm lens) and A7ii ($1499 with the 28mm lens) is actually much cheaper now! I was torn between the two but you convinced me to pick the A7. I’ll just upgrade to an R later on. Thanks again!
JPMicael nice! I’m glad I could help! Yea it just dropped $200 on Amazon, that’s crazy! And yes, I’m actually upgrading to the RIII as soon as it’s out!
i picked the a7 over the a7ii as well but iBIS is not the only diffrence. the a7ii also has slog, and video shooting from the remote wifi app. still not worth the 600 difference but to some it might be.
A7 has that too
Does image stabilization work with a7 if it's in a Canon lens adapted by one of the several electronic lens adapters out there?
The a7+28-70mm kit is 899€ in my local store. I'm in the market for a new camera for both video and photography so I'm gonna grab it. I was already decided to switch from my Sony a5000 to a Canon 80D (mic jack, headphone jack, IBIS, FHD 60p) but now I'm gonna stay with Sony and get the a7. At my workplace (youth media education center) I work with an a7Sii for video (it's EXCELLENT) and Canon 6D for photos and between a FF-DSLR and a FF-mirrorless I prefer the lightweight, slim body of the Sony even when I use it handheld with the 28-135 f4 G lens. The a7 kit with an additional 50mm 1.8 would go for under 1200€ (less than the a7II body only).
now: A7 II is $1000, A7 $800. Making the choice more difficult!
A7 II has more advanced video quality and in body stabilization. However if you are shooting still photography (especially using a tripod) I don't think it will make much difference.
When you raise up the shutter speed to compensate for no stabilization you must have plenty of light or it won't work.....I have been down that street before snd my advice to you is carry a flash......There goes your weight and space advantage......Now, the NEW a7ii, is my choice.......
Howard Kahn or just raise iso
Recording wise do you think the a7 would be a good fit??
Just found an a7 for 564 might sell my a6000 to get it lol i love the 11fps on the a6000 but i mostly take portraits and landscape so the full frame would be better i believe. Dope vid thanks.
Got me searching my house at 2 am for a burglar because that loud ass noise I heard through my over ear headphones was you hitting your microphone LMAO
Picked up an A7 mk1 yesterday! I'm coming from a a5100
Adam Graham sweet man! You’re gonna love it! Definitely an upgrade 📸
Adrian Mendoza also I strongly recommend the Metikon 35MM f0.95 for portraits... even though it's apsc, it's the sharpest fast 35MM when stopped down to f1.2+. I used it for a photo shoot and it gathers decent dynamic range and has an amazing color pop kinda like Zeiss lenses. But it's lacking autofocus...
Adam Graham oh snap! Definitely gotta check that out, 1.2!? That’s insane! Been looking for a 35 actually, thanks for the tip man 🤓👍🏼
Adam Graham Hej! do you think that the a7 is a good camera for beginners? I thought of buying a sony 5600, but then i read a lot of reviews that said it overheated quickly :/ I just want a good camera that can take good videos, but is also easy to carry around :-)
Adam Graham me too brother
Wow I feel like this video is meant for me. I’ve been all over the Internet reading and comparing Sony’s cameras ! Thanks a million you’ve helped me a lot keep it up
Marcus Bass I am glad to hear that and appreciate it a lot man 😊 hope you enjoy it!
The Orion Creative oh give me some time I’ll comment again letting you know I got the camera!
I'v just bought used body a7, almost new for 450$. Btw along with a fe 50/1.8 its great cheap combo:)
Łukasz Jaworski that’s great! If there’s anything else I can help with let me know 😊
I bought the A7 because of incredible price of $540 with full warranty, however if you don't use flash and you do low light photography and don't have a F1.4 lens than you'll have to have a stabilized lens and hold the camera rock steady or use a tripod of else you'll be wishing you had the A7II with IBIS in body image stabilization especially if you ever plan on using vintage lenses. I love my A7, just sometimes I wish it had IBIS.
Or you can accept not being lazy and just use the tripod also the self-timer
Sweet! I’ve always been hesitant to go into Sony gear because of its price but $998 bucks isn’t intimidating at all! Thanks for the informative video 👍🏼
daniela solis it is super cheap, and you can get professional quality out of it, I would definitely recommend coming over to the SONY side 😎 And thank you for the comment! Means a lot since it’s my first time doing this kinda video 😊
I need to know why Sony is so great. I have a Nikkon. But I love Sony products.
Look at legacy glass it’s a nice gateway into full frame mirrorless.
My A7II broke (shutter), I have seen really cheap A7 on used market...
But all my lenses (Zeiss 55mm 1.8, Sigma 28-70mm DG DN Contemporary, Sony 28mm) are all with no stabilisation on lenses.... Is it really worth trying a camera with no IBIS + lenses without stabilization?
Ok, I'm currently using a crop Canon camera and I found out they still sell older models and the a7 is currently $800 and the a7ii is $1000. I'm serious looking into the a7 with the 55 1.8. I'm going back to school this fall for photography and want a full frame to get into. I've also gotten clients (reason I'm now going back to school) and I want to give them better photos. This video helps a lot
Luna Wroblewski let me know if I can help in any other way 😊
@@SanAntonio- I ended up getting a second hand A7 for $580. Couldn't get any lenses right now but I'm using an adaptor with my grandpa's old minolta lenses.
@@lunawroblewski jak się sprawuję?
wow, i really adore the look of this video. the colors are on point!!!!!
Davis T. Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!! Love playing with lights and backgrounds to get a great aesthetic look 😎
Bought my a7ii for 650 with a battery grip and 6 batteries paired with a samyang 35 2.8 and some vintage glass it covers all my needs
Syd Bailey Holy Macaroni! 6 batteries has you more than covered for an entire wedding! And the 35mm focal length is perfect for all portraits in my opinion. Good find!! bravo 👏🏼
Honestly felt like i was robbing the guy but he needed a quick buck to afford a sale on the a7riii so win win
Syd Bailey the circle of life haha
On the used market at least, the a7ii is dropping in price/value lately. I picked up a used one for under $700, and it works!! You can, of course find the older a7 for under $500 now, but the price difference is starting to close in. You can use all kinds of lenses with the a7ii without worrying about camera shake that I’d have trouble with on my old a7, in anything short of good light. The only reasons I’d go with the a7 now over a newer model would be if I absolutely couldn’t afford a used a7ii or if I couldn’t stand the heavier weight and added bulkiness of the a7ii.
potownrob yea now it is definitely convenient to go for the a7ii 😊 thanks for your comment!
The Orion Creative thanks for the great review and insights in this video. It always seems to be a waiting game but, at the end of the day, it’s the camera you have and use that matters, not what will be affordable 6 months or a year or two (gasp!) from now. If I didn’t pick up the a72, I’d probably end up eyeballing a7rIIs til the prices dropped under $1000...
Awesome stuff man!!! Love it!! Looking forward to your work.
One comment, for the Xplor light on the photos you shared, did look a slightly hot on the couple in B&W. But other than that you and your work is awesome and legit and I love getting to learn from you!! Glad your situated and doing well!!
Luke Weaver thanks for that Luke! Dude! That’s so nice to hear!! Thank you so much 😊 I’ll keep the videos coming!
don't forget xavc-s and s-log on a7ii. a7 does not have either, which is a pretty big deal for videographers. also I think it should be noted that the a7ii can 3axis stabilize with old manual glass, which is by far the cheapest way to get professional quality very fast lenses for full frame. for the price difference I'd say a7ii is worth it.
I like this video, the differences are definitely now noticeable to me but Im only transitioning to a camera from my phone next year or later. So I'm giving myself time to save and pick a camera after weeding ut the hype options...
If you are starting out full frame , I would say it is much better to invest in good lenses but most of the optics are dependent on the lens. Get a good G or G Master lens or the prime lenses' and you are good to go. Lens will stay for decades. More important than anything is to learn photography and the art of it. To be honest, every full frame Sony Camera and lens' give consistent good photographs. To pixel peep on chromatic aberration and bokeh balls is not the art of photography.
Great video. Thank you. Which A7 and would you recommend for video?
Voices of History kit.com/lecameraguy/orion-kit this is the camera and gear I would recommend for video, the stuff I use 😊
Please help!!!!! The exact when you feel about A7 in this video is exactly how I feel right now about the A7II it keeps going on sale for $998 and the a7III is still $2,000+ currently I have a Canon SL2. Do you think this will be an upgrade in the stills department?
Learning your photography history will be an upgrade in your Stills Department
A7 all the way. It has a metal feel not strong plastic. I simply love this camera, don’t look at it as cheaper? Look at t as a Sony Alpha Interchangeable Lens Camera with E mount abbreviated down to iLCE. No really the difference between them isn’t enough for me to worry about. So even though you can speed up the camera ,but that lets in less light. So for me it’s like an Fd lens. They don’t make them any more. If you have an A7 keep it. Thanks for your video .Very enjoyable
2 years on from my last comment here. The A7 IV is out now and we are still happy using the A7. ( the original model) So it all depends on what you expect from your camera? We just want a good picture. It’s being used with a sigma emount adapter so we can use Canon 16-35mm lens for apt’s flats houses, etc used for people trying to sell property’s or just showing off the business etc.
I own two Sony a77ii (APS-C ) camera and I've been wanting to get into full frame camera. I was really wanting the a7iii, but too damn expensive. Wow...for under $1K bucks, it's a good price to get your feet wet in a full frame camera. I have no experience shooting in full frame and I like to try it out. I would need to purchase an adapter to use my A-mount glasses though. I am really considering the a7 rather than the a7iii.
Hi, Michelle. I'm on the same situation. What did you choose?
@@michellopes9750 I'm still in the same situation. No changes.
In 2019 the a7 has only gone done $100 to $899. The a7ii has come down to $999. Would have gotten the a7rii, but that price is holding around $1500.
Question: What advice would u give to someone who is just starting with photography, wanting to purchase the A7, who wants to potentially go into wedding photography (event photography)? What sort of lenses should one invest in, what gear and such to start off with per say.. BTW u inspired me to ACTUALLY purchase this camera. Thanks in advanced man. Greetings from California
Good investment Josue! That makes me really happy to hear! Will be filming more videos on the a7 this week now that I set a schedule for that! A great first lens is definitely the 50mm 1.8. Do you have that one yet?
I'm considering the A7 myself. I shot professionally for years using Nikon and then Canon gear before retiring about 4 years ago. I recently sold my Canon 5D Mark IV along with my Canon "L" glass lenses, because I could use the money for other things and it was a lot of money tied in camera gear just for posting ocassiobnal photos on Facebook or Instagram.
I've never owned a Sony camera so I don't know what to expect. All I know is that I miss my camera but don't want to invest thousands of dollars in another camera. My iPhone 7 Plus does a great job but lacks the detail and dynamic range of my Canon. Who has the A7 and what do you think of it?
Zottjes
Thanks for responding. I think my biggest concern is the autofocus. I've heard and seen in videos that it's pretty slow. I don't expect to be as fast as my Canon's were because they have the best AF system going but I don't want a camera that is searching for focus that could cause me to miss shots.
I appreciate the offer but that won't be necessary. I'm leaning heavily toward picking one up. So do you use it quite a bit for video?
Are you on Instagram? I'm on there as #thundurchasur.
Absolutely love your upfront attitude and casual style! Sub. Keep it up.
Robert Hamm thanks Robert! That really means a lot man.
You did a good job. I like your website too. Great video quality and audio. I know how hard that is from personal experience. Cheers.
Hi Adrian. So there's one a7 listed for 520 usd. Should i buy it? Is it worth this price? I mean i want it but i need some ,,opinion". Now i got a58 and i want a7 for photo only.
The A7S used is the camera to buy - great 1080p (better than its successors) which the majority of the time most people will need.
So I'm looking to buy a full frame camera... My eyes are on Canon 6d and sony A7 or A72... And I want a camera with good pictures and video quilting... Any help would be great
Just got the A7, pretty happy with it. Good video!
Glad to hear that Fahim, had you already ordered it before you saw my video? just curious :) Also, what lenses did you get with it?
Adrian Mendoza yes I received it this morning and I got the ' Samyang 35mm 2.8 af. I'm planning to buy more lenses but for now, this will get the job done.
That's perfect man! If you ever need any advice or help, shoot me a comment and I'll gladly make a youtube review or tutorial on whatever you need, just say the word. Just made a behind the scenes shoot with the a7, if you haven't checked that one out. And lastly, if you ever need to buy something off of Amazon, if you use my links that would help support my channel so much, I would greatly appreciate it.
Adrian Mendoza thanks bro 👌🏻 I surely will. Good luck with your channel. Already subscribed so I won't miss your videos
If you haven't you should watch Philip White a British wedding/event videographer, he's in among the top in the world. He shoots with the a7s and a7s II aka Sony's lowlight monsters (yet he crusches the blacks, it looks good though). He shoots mainly with a 85mm lens, I vent budget and got a Panasonic gx85 with a 42.5 1.7 because I won't have the same issue with low light up here in the north in the summer anyway when weddings take place. BUT if a would get a gig down south I would really fast get a Sony full frame, though I think a camera for 2500$ plus gear is to expensive for any wedding.
Hi! Is it good enough due to realize great videos? Or would be better to buy a newer camera with 4k, more focus point etc..
Amazing photos! 2020 - Searching for a FULLFRAME! Thanks for the video!
Hi
I'm thinking of switching from my Canon 6D to the Sony A7/A7 II.
What I'm looking for is the Eye AF, the iQ must at least be as good as what I already get
The focal lengths I usually work with is 85mm(AF), 135mm(adapted Olympus MF), 200mm(adapted Olympus MF) and every now and then 24-105mm Canon L lens.
I mostly do portraits and animal photography.
So my question is; would you still recommend the A7 to someone like me?
Thanks Man! Just bough it, your video helped a lot :)
Another different is sensor reflection in the A7 and a wider grip full metallic body on the A7ii
I may get the A7, glad its compatible with ad600, so that means it should work with the godox ad200 as well to
Would you go for an A7 II + Tamron 28-75 f2.8 or A7 III + Sony 28-70 f3.5-5.6?
Semi-Pro use, mostly studio work (product/portraits), outdoor sessions... Both combos are the same price in my country, kinda tight budget (wouldn't be able to upgrade for almost a year). Thanks!
@@zottjes6838 Thanks!
The sony a7 is a really good camera on itself. But as i read someone else say before on photography forum that the a7ii feels more like the end product and that the a7 would be just the test model. Honestly in the end it's all about the shoot you can get, and as long as the sensors good then the picture will look good. But IBIS, a better body as well as better AF makes the A7II feel more well done as a camera compared to the A7.
The a7 is really cheap right now I was thinking of picking it up
bigyounk28 I highly recommend it for photography man 👍🏼 feel free to check out my kits in the description box, and anything you need help with let me know 😎
Adrian Mendoza I have the a6000 but was thinking of moving up to full frame
what a7 for music videos and vlogs under low light
hmmm, well to film all my videos I use the a7sii. But I know that the a7ii might be better for video and around that $1,200 range. For videos, you would want to keep it full frame, but I can recommend the a6500.
the a6500 is full frame?
Diff is you cannot use mc11 + canon glass to your sony A7 because it doesn't have PDAF.
I have no experience in photography, but I am really interested in getting to it. Would this be a good buy for someone like myself?
In 2020 a7 or a7ii ? Saw they updated a7ii uncompressed raw and better codec and has log pp
I just did! And I like the A7. Next step might be the 85mm because I bought that camera really cheap . . .
well on amazon for some weird issue the kit price for both are the same. in that case get the a7 II it has more features and in body stabilzation great for videos. the a7 II apparently has dropped down in price to be near the a7 and for that money GET the a7 II. lol
$798.00 A7 body only in amazon! vs $1398.00 for A7II. what do you think? now or never for that a7 body only right? i been thinking about a7ii cause i like to shoot at night, but man $798 for a full frame body only sounds like a great bargain!!
Great video! Coming from Nikon, I'm thinking of getting the Sony a7.
Btw, what's the song played in the background?
Hi I was reading comments. so If I chose a7 and pick lens "Use it with Samyang/Rokinon 35mm f2.8 FE AF you get a auto focus and an excellent street camera." Is it right?
And what about video? and focusing?
The photo here 4:34 is amazing.
Here in Finland those cameras have about 100€ difference at the moment, so i chose the a7II.
perfection!! Enjoy!
I’m using a NEX3N right now and I want to upgrade but I’m not sure if my skills are up there yet. I was planning on getting a FF lens that I can use with my NEX3N until I feel I need the upgrade and then go for the A7 or A7ii. What do you think of this? Also, can you recommend any affordable FF lenses to use on my current NEX3N?
How about that sensor flare Ive read about (on the a7)
Great video! Thank you so much. I had such a hard time trying to find a recent video discussing the a7 to the newer versions of the 7 series and the a6300/a6000!!!
No problem man, I'm glad you were able to find it helpful and I'm going to be making some more videos about the a7 soon! Hope you stick around for them :D
Definitely earned yourself a subscriber! But..while I have you here I'll pick your brain :D Im wanting to get my first camera. 3 Goals I have in mind, and here they are in order of importance. #1 Astrophotography - Portraits - Personal videos of family. I dont want a huge DSLR. But Full Frame definitely helps with taking pictures of the night sky, right? Im assuming so. Which is why Ive been thinking about the Sony a7, cheapest, modern, Mirrorless Full Frame camera. Atleast, thats what Im seeing.
DC Merritt on my description box if you look at my budget photographer kit it includes everything you need for exactly that! From the a7 to the lenses I recommend and that work for me 😊 Hope it helps man
Hi. Im using sony a6000 now. Im thinking about to change to A7. Is it worth? Im doing some wedding event and dinner and other events. Is the 28-70mm a good combination for shooting wedding event and FE 50mm
Dude, this shot is dope. Nice video!
just bought a second hand a7 for 500. Think that's a pretty good deal
Great video! Now if you had to choose between the 6300 and A7 for videography? Trying to make a move from my Canon Rebels to Sony
Thank you, and for video I use a7sii, but if you check out my vlogs in the channel, I use the a6300, since its great with af. definitely recommend that!! Let me know on anything else you need :)
Thanks for this video because I really didn’t know what I was gonna go with
Kevin Purnell no problem man, glad I could help!
Yes but is the focusing better on a7ii. A7 seems to hunt a lot.
The difference is not in image quality, af, much better ergonomics, third party lenses af compatibility, ibis, 14bit raw, better video codec. these are the improvements, and image quality stays the same. since it's the same sensor.
Great video man thanks for the info. Keep it up!
Nick Hanlin thanks Nick! 😊 Will do
$998 for the body only wow! You know what I might honestly consider getting this camera. Your video was super helpful and very informative.
The Stupid Console Gamer thanks man, that means a ton! Let me know if I can help with anything else 📸🤓
I bought a Panasonic G7 about 2 years ago for video absolutely loved it. But i found out that i like to shoot stills alot more then video and I just cant get satisfied with the picture quality. Is it worth the upgrade to the sony a7 or a7ii?
Super cool, thanx !!
Hey Adrian. How's your experience with the a7 so far? Been wanting to get it but there's the issue with sensor reflection when pointed to a light source that's why I think I'm gonna need to save up more for the a7ii.
I can pick up an a7ii for only a little over 1k though. So, still leaning towards it over the a7 although my first lens for it will be the 90mm macro G OSS so I won’t be using the IBIS for a while, at least until I get other lenses.
Tzacol it’s really cheap on Amazon rn, you should definitely go for the a7 if you’ve got the cash and the 90 2.8 is gonna be perfect!
Hey, now that the a7iii is out, would you recommend the a7 over the a7ii or a7iii? Or is the a7 becoming obsolete?
Thanks for this great video! I am wondering if you came across any issue with the E-mount? I have been reading a lot of issues with the mount being plastic on the A7 and cannot support heavier lenses. I am planning to buy either A7 or A7II and would be shooting sometimes with Samyang 135 F2 or the 70-200 F4. Do you think it might cause any issue?
thank you sir for that wonderful advise sony a7+85mm lens+ image stabilization.
aryen alcantara no problem man, anything I can be at help for shoot me a comment 😊👍🏼
Great review I’m looking to full for filmmaking and Sony has great specs. Stilll gotta consider lenses too
Quick question, which one would you pick A7 of A 6300? I'm debating which one to get. Awesome video btw!
Jesus Rivera hey so I’m actually gonna be reviewing the a6300 tomorrow on episode 2 of MGM czcams.com/video/-CuF-W6gvwM/video.html
From the A7 and 63 I think I would go for the A6300
The Orion Creative I was thinking the same thing! Thank you for the reply!
got the sony a68 and dont know if its worth the upgrade and no comparisons on youtube
Great video. Does A7 also good at taking videoes too?
Does image stabilization in a7ii really give a decent impact? and from the internet the lowlight from a7ii better than a7. Im just getting more serious in photography, what're ur thoughts? Im really confuse on what camera i'll take
If you are using low light or vintage lens that highly suggest the A7II over the A7 which I bought at such a low price I had to buy it, however would prefer the extra stabilization of the A7II.
That Dallas intro caught me off guard so I had to subscribe. D-town represent! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
jesus christ the g master lenses are fricking 3 times the price of the body itself?! mother og gawd i will definitely be using vintage glass
Hi! I'm looking for a Camera and I'm in doubt between a6000 with the 18-105mm and Sony alpha 7 with the kit lense im mainly looking for a Camera for landscape and portrait photography video is secondary.
Thanks
Any thoughts on the battery life of the a7? It’s the only thing holding me back from switching over to the mirrorless system. Since you shoot weddings what do you do to combat the shorter battery life?
Terry T. It actually isn’t that bad, I go through about 2 and a half normally.
hi adrian, i would like to know something, how do you export your videos to look this good? i mean definition-wise, the image is so sharp.. each time I upload to youtube i sense i notable loss on sharpess and video quality overall. thanks.
Great video man!!! Thank you
