    Great video, and good pair of cameras. The Sony has a new sensor were the Canon has the older 90D sensor which has been tweaked. The Sony sensor has a faster read than the R7 and this shows in the comparisons tests. Especially banding and the AF speed which is all done by the sensor on mirrorless cameras.

  • @stevepa999
    @stevepa999 9 месяцев назад +13

    It is weird that the R7 had problems focusing at minus four stops. I tested it out on my R7, no problem. The EVF was pitch-black, but as soon as I pressed the AF-ON button, the screen lit up for a split second and grabbed focus.
    You did not mention one of the most important factors in deciding on a camera, and that is lens choice. The fact that Canon has very few APS-C lenses and no third-party lenses means that people are better off going into the Sony system if they are first-time buyers.

    Great comparison with highly practical real world comparisons. I have the Canon R7, (and a Nikon Z50). For me, the biggest issue potential buyers should consider is what lenses will you want. Both the Canon and Nikon apsc models are hamstrung by a lack of quality apsc lens offerings. So I’m looking at either this Sony or the Fuji X-S20 to be able to build out a with quality lenses to have a system that is versatile for a variety of uses. I’m increasingly suspecting Canon and Nikon just won’t build out their apsc cameras and lenses like what Sony and Fuji users have to choose from.

      Why do you have to use APS-C lenses ??? I have a couple of really nice EF L-glass lenses that work very well on my R7's.... Although I hardly use them anymore, as I hardly do landscapes anymore. I'm pretty much a hard-core bird guy nowadays, so my RF 800 F11 stays glued to my R7. 1280mm equivalent. For myself, this is the best combo money can buy, from any manufacturer. I know Sony makes some fantastic equipment. Its too bad they don't make an 800mm. If Sony really wants to make me consider jumping ship, they need to make something like Nikon's PF 800 F6.3. Nikon doesn't make a nice, new APS-C to put that lens on. But Sony already does, so...

It's a wise choice to go with either sony or fuji apsc, you can get a quality lens both zoom and prime lenses from 3rd party brands for a reasonable price. example: sigma 18-50 f2.8, tamron 17-70 f2.8, sigma trio prime and the viltrox 75mm 1.2, which is not an option to RF mount camera. RF lenses are really expensive, even EF L line up lenses.

    When I first researched into mirrorless cameras, Sony's A6xxx took the cake, Sony had zoom lenses from 10-18, 18-200, 18-135, and 70-350. Canon and Nikon had limited zoom lenses. The zoom lenses are not as sharp as the prime lenses, but the photos are adequate for my purposes, because I shoot stage productions from an audience seat that has limited mobility. ETA since I shoot in low-ligth, the A6700 sometimes hunt for the correct focus point, and it results in about 10% of the photos being out of focus. BTW I turned off the focusing aid light because it was distracting for the performers.

    The buffering depends a great deal on the card used. Using a v90 card on my a6700 I can get around 115 compressed RAW frames before it hesitates rather than the 40 you mentioned. I would assume the Canon would would do more with the same card, but just sayin'.....

      Depends as well if compressed (lossless) raw is enabled on the Sony or not. I'm not sure what they enabled for the test, however. In any case, I don't know a single reason one would use uncompressed raw with this camera.
      The Canon has lossless compressed raw, too, by the way.

    Since these cameras are used for birds and wildlife and macro unless the Sony has pre-capture and focus bracketing I think the R7 is ahead.

    When comparing dynamic range, the only way to really do it is to compare log curves together. A "graded" Rec709 image has dynamic range "thrown away" in order to bring proper contrast for viewing. Rec709 can only hold 6-8 stops of dynamic range, depending on how "flat" you want the image to look. The more the contrast, the more dynamic range was discarded in order to display a pleasing contrast. These cameras will capture about 12-13 total stops on each photo and you are only comparing the 6-8 "graded out" stops of dynamic range. Comparing a flat log image is the only way to see what these sensors are "really" capturing.

    You should test the A6700 with some Sigma or Tamron APSC lenses ;-) Even Viltrox has some amazing glass for that camera, the 27mm f/1.2 and the 75mm f/1.2 are brilliant !

    @jimaudette445 9 месяцев назад +2

    Two concerns here. First is the fact that the R7 has so many focus adjustments and modes. Out of the box the R7 focus is good, but not great. In my opinion. I've helped a lot of people in the different R7 groups set up their focus correctly. You have the selection of one shot or servo, focus points, "cases" that determine the sensitivity to which it releases or locks focus continuously. subject and eye focus, as well as tracking in servo mode. All of these make a huge difference in the success in the focusing of the camera. Next was the noise test I felt that both cameras were a little underexposed. An under exposed image will always produce more noise. And the best way to get the least amount of noise in a high ISO situation is proper exposure as that reduces the noise.

    • @maggnet4829
      @maggnet4829 9 месяцев назад

      The A6700 AF is really sticky and quick, and even in complex scenarios, it tends to make informed choices on what to focus on. Where it struggles, though, are animals that are small in the image. It can take a bit until it grabs onto them, so there is certainly room for improvement.
      And I can confirm, since I recently tested it myself, as long as it finds something with contrast to snap onto, it can focus at f11 indoors at 1/30 ISO 6400 (correct exposure) at 300mm without opening the aperture on a non Sony lens (Tamron 18-300).

    • @jimaudette445
      @jimaudette445 9 месяцев назад +3

      @@maggnet4829 this is why I have a concern about this review. If you go onto the AF menu and cases in the servo AF sub menu you'll find multiple cases. Each case has different tracking and response / acceleration settings. If you were to select case one and adjust the tracking to say -1 which is more locked on, the auto focus becomes more sticky. At the same time you can adjust how quickly the subject is moving to allow it to stay locked on or release. Most modern cameras have all of these options, and features, and the default settings for one may be good, but not acceptable for another. This can be said, for reviewing or comparing as well. If you say one camera locks on better, do you need to make sure that the other cameras adjustments would not make it better or equal to the other camera?

      ​@jimaudette445 I somewhat agree that it does have an impact, e.g. the Sony A6700 AF is recommended to be set to 4, while the default is 3. The AF becomes a good bit snappier.
      However, with sticky I mean that you realize that the AF really stays with the subject, even if it rotates and then chooses the best option to focus on. Lets say you have a model looking at you, it right away grabs the eye. Then the model rotates and the eye becomes invisible, the camera instantly switches to focus on the side of the face, the model rotates further and it switches to the back of the head, the model walks away and it stick without letting go even if there is another person in the image. The model crouches down and you don't see the face or head and the focus still sticks to that person.

If I could combine the two cameras into one, I'd use the R7 body and A6700 sensor. R7 has better handling and A6700 has (slightly) better IQ in higher ISO. For travel I'd choose A6700.

The are native lenses and their auto-focus is faster. I wouldn't recommend any other brand lenses with converter - too slow for bird photography.

    Photos taken with a6700 are just sharper. There's a video comparing R7 and the R6 (mark I), and every single picture taken with the R7 is slightly more blurry than the one taken with the R6. The same can be observed here. No mater which lens you use with the R7, the images will lack that critical sharpness.
    I think this is the reason a6700 performs better with higher ISO. When you compare noise level in the background, both camera seem to perform similar, but when you zoom on the eye, the a6700 looks sharper.

    • @maggnet4829
      @maggnet4829 9 месяцев назад +1

      The Canon has a higher resolving sensor. They appear more noisy but tend to offer more to work with in post-processing for AI noise reduction. Would be interesting to see a comparison how the end result of that looks. This banding, however is quite a problem.
      By the way, I suspect another reason the Sony is sharper is a weaker aliasing filter. Since it is derived from the Sony A7R line. This can cause more moiré. However, for that, it needs a lens that outperforms the sensor. I haven't seen anybody testing this yet. I would test it, but none of my lenses is sharp enough for that.

    There are 4 differences in these 2 cameras. The 6700 has better video codecs. Does 4k 120. The R7 will last much longer when used in hotter climates. The R7 is a better action/wildlife camera. Other than that. Anyone who has a clue how to do their job would get the same results with either. But You did need to make a video.

    Did you mention that only Canon R7 is weather sealed and you can literally rinse the sand off, also stills focus hit rate may have been 100% if you slowed canons frames per seconds down to match Sony as the processor has to communicate to sensor and to lens motor between each shutter actuation which the slower Sony had more time to keep focus so not equal grounds in the test.

It still works but you'll have some out of focus frames. Switching to H 20 fps or mechanical shutter 15 fps, and or providing good light and contrast, there is no problem.

    It seems like you used different apertures at the autofocus test since canon images have more bokeh, therefore it was easier for sony to maintain focus.
