    Thank you for these kinds of videos. A lot of creators these days are already ditching the A7IV for the rumored upcoming A7V. It almost makes me feel bad about upgrading from the A7III to the A7IV last year, like I did it too late. Open gate, 6K 60fps, internal RAW recording... come on, do we really need all that? People need to learn how to light and compose first. Great video, almost therapeutic, keep it up!

    I really can't decide between this beast & a full frame set up or a ZV E10 & more lenses, equipment etc to start with. So difficult to choose your gear these days with so many options! You showcased it brilliantly here.

    • @gregllo424
      @gregllo424 6 месяцев назад +1

      I have the ZV-E10 as my first cam with sigma 16mm and 30mm. Absolute beast of a cam. Honestly the same quality as A7iii. Only diff is minor things. Rolling shutter being the worst if your panning ZV fast like a madman. The A7iii does have a special "magic" to it tho lol. Idk why i can tell when certain stuff is filmed with the a7iii but it looks unique. Overall, if your on a slightly lower budget I'd get the Zv-E10 and use the extra money to kit it out. Cuz good glass for a full frame is going to be more expensive as well. All up to you tho bro!

    During my research for my new camera, I was checking between APSC and Full-frame cameras, The A7III and A7IV are the best sellers on the market for videos and photos. I want the A7IV because of the 10bit and features but for a budget, I still recommend the A7III for beginners, the price, it has a good sensor, good image quality, and performs well in low light. I know it's limited with color grading for 8bit but I still believe you can push the color grading in Slog, HLG to the max or custom picture profile and make it similar to 10bit color and still make solid image quality video. "it's not the camera, it's the user that makes it" Right now I've finally got my Sony A6700 and I'm happy it has all my needs. The next camera will be Fullframe in the future and I keep my eyes on the Hybrid A7III, A7IV, Cinematic FX30 or FX3.

    • @Vansh_Bajpai

      So how's your experience with a6700 does it overheat and can I do vlog and Filmmaking with this?

    • @GUNPLAOFEL
      @GUNPLAOFEL 3 месяца назад +1

      @Vansh_Bajpai sorry for the late response. So far, so good. I make a lot of pictures and small video footage. This camera is a beast for overheating. I don't have issues because I haven't recorded videos for a longer time, but I planned in the future. I bought the Ulanzi Fan 2.0 easy to use and cheap it definitely helps the overheating for extra record time. I haven't tested yet, but I'm prepared for the summers and new projects.

    I was on the original a7s since it was originally released. You can get a LOT of life out of modern cameras. With the work I do, trading in my a7s for an a7iii was actually cheaper than renting a higher end camera for an upcoming photo project so it made sense to get an a7iii in 2024 for me. It's a significant upgrade compared to the a7s. At my day job I use an A1 for photo and a Burano for video so I am very familiar with Sony flagship and high end products and really don't feel that I'm missing much from the a7iii that I get out of the A1 - sure the A1 is the clear champ, but it also speaks to the a7iii that, especially for my personal body, i'm not aching for something more.

  • @JeffCreates
    @JeffCreates 5 месяцев назад +1

    It's funny when you come across videos like this talking about your current main camera as if it's ancient history. I think the Sony a7iii epitomises the "it's a tool, use it" philosophy. Many cameras have come out since that are technically more proficient. Obviously loads of them have much bigger megapixel counts. But I don't feel I'm anywhere near to getting squeezing out everything the a7iii can do. I do wonder how many people who regard cameras like the a7iii as obsolete have any idea how to create images and video that connect to people.

    Do you have thoughts on whether or not the Black Magic Pocket Cinema camera would be a good camera for RUclips content?

    • @belleanna09
      @belleanna09 4 месяца назад

      In my opinion, the black magic camera would be a great choice for creating high-quality RUclips Content. It’s professional video features such as 4K recording and wide dynamic range, would allow you to produce stunning videos that stand out on any platform. Also, the cameras, compact size and portability make it convenient for vlogging and on the go shooting.

    Hey, one of your videos suggested that the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD (A036) is good at cinematic footage, and there's another model VXD G2 (A063). I wonder which one of them is actually better

  • @AllThingsFilm1
    @AllThingsFilm1 6 месяцев назад

    Definitely a beautiful camera, with amazing capabilities. For online content, you probably couldn't do much better. I've actually looked at the A7iii a few times. But, ultimately, I move past it since for my uses I do prefer cameras that can shoot 10-bit. Having had the A7C, I was able to get great shots as well. But, the banding and artifacts I got from some low light situations eventually lead me to sell it. But, if you're just shooting straight to REC709 colors, than the A7iii would probably meet most of your needs.

      A7III can shoot uncompressed raw 10fps and A7IV can only do 6fps. A7III has better low light performance than A7IV. Anyway both are good.. A7III is just old beast that can beat some new cameras in low light performance.

    Guys I had the A7iv. Would you believe me if I told you I took it back because some things on A7iii are better??? Hear me out:
    - for home creation 8 bit 4k 100mbps is GREAT. Trust me. Expose properly and you’ll have more than enough for home videos, small client work and RUclips.
    - for home creation and RUclips, the 4k60fps 400mbps files ARE HUUUGEEE. Plus my laptop became so so so slow I couldn’t even view 10 bit.
    - the A7iv is HOT. When I was just playing in menu it gets hot. Even my kids said it’s hot while viewing pics, now imagine a shoot.
    - The memory cards to record high bit rates are EXPEEENSIIVEEE.
    - The last straw was the battery life. I’m a casual user and my 3x a7iii batteries I hardly EVER charge. A7iv just EATs battery life. I swear I’d leave it at 30%, 3 days later it’s just flat. While A7iii. If I left it at 30%, in 3weeks it’s at 30% and I can shoot.
    - the flippy screen. Some people love it, I’m the camp that prefer the pop up screen.
    If 90% of your work is photo. Bruh, A7iii is STILL UNBELIEVABLE.
    If 90% of your work is video. It’s not good enough.
    Thanks for listening 😬

    I'm hoping for an A7V with the AI autofocus and color science of the a6700, as well as 4k60 no crop and 4k120. I suspect that version would be about all the camera I would need for the foreseeable future.
    Since I don't know when that will be released, I'm tempted to upgrade my a6600 to a6700 for the exact same reasons (I prefer APSC for personal use). I kind of feel the same way about the a6600 as you do about the A7III -- it just seems to punch above its weight, especially in terms of dynamic range for a crop sensor.

    Its the person behind the camera that makes the difference. The A73. is a breakthrough tool that gives the creator so much more latitude to work with. The upgrades from this are good, but they do not always translate to better work. This video is proof of the brilliance of making the best from a superb canera eith raw talent.
