A7S3 is still best. The moiré in the green hoodie is a 100% deal breaker

Sony colour spaces really pop for skin tone now. I was also impressed by the absolute clarity of this video in low light conditions. Im waking up to Sony now, thank you. A7c II at the top of my shopping list.

Great video. Loved this comparison, thank you!

Best intro ever! Thoroughly enjoyed the punching of the boxes.

Really enjoy your content. Very informative.

The A7siii combined with the new 16-35 II is a killer combo. I recently got the A7siii and its gonna still be a work horse years to come. New cameras are great, but love the A7siii.

These are so sick!

12:41 perfectly encapsulates why it doesn't matter which camera you buy. The end user can never tell the difference.

I own an A7SIII and an A7IV right now for video work. The SIII isn’t going anywhere-it’s basically the messiah of video cameras. The SII became legendary when it came out, and the SIII not only lived up to expectations of a successor, it exceeded them in some ways. A landmark of technology and definitely staying in my arsenal for years to come. I don’t like taking photos with it though, and that’s mostly because of the noise levels. The A7IV is a different story. When I bought it, I wanted a hybrid shooter that can do great video and great photo. Problem is, the applications where I need a good B-cam for recording are long form (wedding ceremonies), and for whatever reason, the A7IV suffers from just enough thermal runaway that it’s not really usable in those scenarios. Since I’m starting to do more photo stuff recently anyway, I’ve really been digging my A7IV as an everyday/photo camera. But I miss the compactness of the A6300s that I started out with several years back (I sold one, but still keep another kicking around with a few lenses). I used my A6300 for a proper gig at the start of this year, and its compactness was critical for my ability to carry it into a place that did not allow “professional” photography. So I’m contemplating selling off or trading in my A7IV to spring for the A7CR. If my B-cam is going to be good for photos, I want something LEAGUES better than any phone camera out there, and the A7CR is literally the best you can get. Oh, and I’ll probably get silver, because I love the idea of my photo camera having a slightly different aesthetic from my black A7SIII.

Another great vid Matti, FX3 FTW

The Sony A7CR is something I've been dying for since I got the first A7C. Sony has the best cameras over everyone. I've tried Fujifilm and Canon but the color and look just never sat with me. I look the more cinematic look Sony delivers. So excited! God I'm going to be broke this fall. Apple event next month 😭

I take pictures with my 7Siii along with video and it takes great photos for what I want to use it for. I'd consider the 7C for a more compact travel camera. The Siii brings a lot of attention.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing it. ✌️

Acodring to the technical specs, the magnification and eye point have increased, both of which are very good things IMO.

I absolutely love this camera for its looks and compact size

I just bought the Sony a7iv a week ago as my first camera ever. Should I send it back and get sony a7cii or keep it?

The evolution of cameras and KZread. I remember when you were using the Canon 6D mkii then the bigger heavier 1DX then a small Sony FX3. Now the debate between these cameras 😊

So is the a7c II the same as the a7iv but with the new ai and a7c body and maybe a better processor? not sure. looking at the a7iv though for hybrid use.

This was a great example of a video guy giving his thoughts on photography 😅

Any chance we can download some of the raw footage you shot? I don’t notice a huge difference here on KZread but I’d like to see if the line skipping of the a7cr is noticeably worse than the oversampled a7cii footage

It’s clickbait. The reason I watched it , glad to see it’s not better

How well does the a7cii color match with fx30? and is the stabilization on the a7cii better than the fx30? I feel like the fx30 stabilization sucks.

Biggest thing to consider is at this point with the base model full frames coming in the same performance to the a7siii can only mean the a7siv is round the corner as the next release in spring 2024?

That commercial in between is one of the most brutal ad spots I’ve ever seen on a video🤦‍♂️ it’s like the video gets hijacked

Looking too buy a camera for Content Creation jobs for brands, music artists and more...need a solid hybrid camera which performs well in all situations for video (low light etc...) but also want the option to be able to shoot photos on it as well for things such as cover images, carousels for IG...what would you recommend? Currently torn between the A7Cii and the ZV-E1...At the moment I'm leaning towards the A7Cii because it has a view finder and if I get some wedding gigs this may be super helpful when capturing photos.... Would love to hears thoughts opinions or even another camera option which may work better for that hybrid set up!

I was trying to decide between the A7CII & A7CR and I chose the ZV-E1 in White. Cheers!

Great comparison! It seems FX3, A7SIII and ZV-E1 still perform better on filming.

Last time I tried, the free Davinci Resolve is significantly slower than the full Studio version because it lacks some hardware decoding features.

What's with the strong moire in the a7c2? Particularly noticeable in the sweatshirt in the iso tests... Is that from poor scaling or line skipping in camera or in post?

I'd be totally unsurprised if we literally have to wait 5 years for the next major sensor upgrade with the A7SIV/FX3II. Just like it took 5 years to get the current model it was such a huge quantum leap forward that it will take equally as long or longer to get the same jump in performance. But look how it's completely changed the game for us, every single camera now has 10 bit and is so much more capable than before. The trickle down effect has enabled me to get a7siii performance with the ZV-E1 for $1600 usd refurbished. That's f*king brilliant.

OK so this is 5 months old and there's 300 comments I haven't read so maybe someone answered this question for you. But in DaVinci, with effects like that you have to tell it you want it to render to the cache live by going to the Playback menu, Render Cache, and switching it to Smart. You can also sort fudge your playback resolution by reducing the timeline resolution during your edit then just bumping it back up for export.

the 16-35 GM is amazing and i am going to replace mine,however this new A7CII misses a lot of key specs to be a reliable camera,I would rather pick the mark one second hand for half the price.

To the editor, you're probably rendering the scene in full resolution I think there's a way to reduce the visual res or the debayering algo on your live view. Im not saying reduce your output res, its that small box you watch on thats rendering at full res and causes the slow I think

I would use Fx3 if i could 😅 I have a long way in front of my before I can afford these cameras. And people just store different ones on the shelfs 🤣 Matti, you did review 3 product in one video. Nice job! :)

I´m just mad the a7IV is literally the only camera with 4k60 crop :( please SONY!!!! just give us that, I beg

Just be careful that 4K 60p in A7C II is available only in APS-C(Super 35) mode which mean 1.5 crop. On the other hand in A7CR it is available only in FF with 1.2 crop and it is not available in APS-C mode. Yeah little confusing. 😀 Still I am considering switch to A7C II from my A7 III.

Re: the megapixel comparison, to be fair a closeup portrait shot wide open is gonna show the megapixel difference less than almost any other type of photo. And of course the beauty of the 60mp sensor is that you can crop in 2x on a photo and STILL have more detail than the a7S.

Nah you trippen the 7cr pic looks better than the other 2 😂😂

I would only get it because of the look, because it looks similar to the fuji X100 V. I am looking for a successor for my 5D MK III, but since there is only 1 card slot and the small viewfinder, which would certainly bother me, since I always look through the viewfinder, there was no digital viewfinder. but the extremely good ai autofocus is already a very good selling point. maybe the Alpha IV is the better successor, even if it doesn't look as good and the autofocus is worse anyway good video :)

Not true about the 640 as base for FX3 anymore with the newer firmware updates its 800 as base with 2.0 & 3.0 update

i thought the A7c ii looked most stable... it could have been a rougher walk-in filming with your a7siii though.. but after looking up the price.., i see no reason why anyone would buy it over the ZV-E1.. its got an EVF.. thats the one appeal

lol Matti you’re 3 minutes early!

Max shutter speed still 1/4000s ? ...

The A7c 2 is a great option for everyday carry

A7cii looks interesting, but are specs a downgrade from 6700? Guess next will be looking for comparison video. 6700 has 4k 120 lol but only rubbish 5stop ibis
