That is one I will "like" and "share" @@christopherfrost ... I'm sad that I sold my equipment but they no longer worked once I changed operating systems.
Regarding the missing joystick: seems that a lot of people have started using "focus and recompose" using tracking. When I discovered that it revolutionized how I use autofocus. Benj Haisch in his review of the A7CR said the exact same thing and mentioned he doesn’t even use a joystick much anymore since switching to Sony. It’s nice to have, but when I want to change the autofocus point, I just tap the screen, which is faster than using the joystick anyway, despite having to take the camera away from my eye.
@@nSpiraliArchitectbI use the flexible spot so I can move it around the screen. But often I just leave it in the middle, and once I’ve got my subject in the middle, I press and hold the "AF-ON" butten. That engages real time tracking, so your camera will continuously keep focussing that subject, even when it moves - or when you do. This allows you to kinda "grab focus" and then reframe your shot how you want it. This works both with single shot autofocus (once you start tracking, it basically works like continuous) and continuous autofocus. But since I’ve found that AF-C is actually FASTER than AF-S, I’ve used AF-C almost exclusively.
Mine just arrived and I’m in love. It surprised me how much smaller and lighter it is vs the A7iv. I can live with a couple less buttons and lesser quality EVF in exchange for the compact form and updated AF, menu, and other newer features.
I'm not a sony shooter but I really wish more manufacturers went this route with their mirrorless cameras. I really really don't understand why most pro and full-frame mirrorless cameras are in the SLR style. IMO having the viewfinder in the corner ala rangefinder is simply superior. With the viewfinder in the middle of the camera I always end up smushing my nose against the screen, leaving marks and also making it harder to get my eye proper close to the viewfinder.
It's usually an issue with the EVF quality. Better quality, i.e. higher resolution and magnification EVFs are larger and don't fit into smaller bodies. With A7C it's clearly a deliberate design choice. To keep the overall dimensions small, a sacrifice in EVF size and thus quality has to be made.
I was originally waiting for this camera, but knew the pricing would be at least double of what I wanted to spend for a street/travel camera that would sit on my shelf most of the time. Since I use the a7rv for most of my shoots, I decided to get the a7c (used for $1K). TBH, if you're looking for a great deal on a compact FF camera wait a few months and get the a7c.
I am debating just that (getting a used A7C as a second camera or a new A7C II as a new main camera). The quality of life upgrades are nice, but I know the camera well enough and have it set up to my needs that I don’t need them; the higher resolution is nice, but I can get by without it; 10-bit video and S-Cinetone are cool but not something I’ll use very often; the deeper grip is appreciated but I can live with the old one; I have absolutely no use for insect/train/... AI AF; the list goes on. The single thing that might push me over the edge is the EVF. When I got my A7C, I walked into a store, took a look myself and determined it’s not great, but fine. I’ve since kinda changed my mind about that though...
@@rickbiessman6084 Sony just keeps recycling the same EVFs and LCD screens I’m curious how many warehouses full of these things they bought 10 years ago and are still working through with their badge engineering “upgrades” 🤣
Agreed. I also struggle to justify 2400 EUR for the new when you can get the old A7C for 1450 today (new). 1000 EUR difference for some very minor upgrades?
Every time you say "testing the living daylights...", I start singing "The Living Daylights" by a-ha. Good tune, I always liked that one. Pretty good Bond movie too.
A7cII looks to perform better at high iso than nost of older sony cameras A7IV and A1 included, like at iso100.000.. It's not from multiple sources but I would guess that their software improved while hw is the same. A7cR is slightly better in resolution, but it lack a lot: Iso200k for stills, iso100k for video(R got only 30k), 6fps unlimited burst using lossless raw(R can do that only in apsc mode). Basically a camera for any situation. But, what I like the most is combination pf this with 7stop IS, which make it a beast: 1-2s shutter with iso200k for stills, 1/4s iso100k for video with that great 7 stop stabilization. It covers everything.
If you just wanna do foto the r8 is great. But I will sell mine, do more video than foto and the smaller battery and also some focus pulsing, which I not have with my r7, makes me right now, considering selling the r8 for the A7c ii. Test both of them. I am really a canon guy but that focus pulsing in video did put me off of the r8

Nice review Christopher 👍. £2100 is a bit salty especially as I've bought into the Fuji system. Maybe one day 😏. I've a X-T2 and X-E1. I do appreciate the corner mounted viewfinder as it avoids "nose grease" getting on the screen.
It's a great review, Christopher. I'm thinking about buying one because I'm sick of shooting with smartphones and my Sony RX100M3 is showing its age. This would be a nice refresh/upgrade. What zoom lens would you recommend for general purpose use? On a side note, the light in those photos in the church is gorgeous. Cheers from Portugal!
I’m debating between grabbing an A7C as a second body for easy carrying and replacing my A7III entirely with an A7C II to cover both bases. I’m leaning towards the former because dual card slots, better ergonomics for bigger hands and I like the centred EVF. The new AF system and better controls compared to the original A7C are very, very tempting, but considering the price I think if I can get a good enough deal on the OG I’ll be going that way.
Hi @christopherfrost, could you check if the screen is black when using polaryzed sunglasses? In original A7C when you use polaryzed glasses in landscape orienation the screen is black, and is only usable when rotated by 90 deg to portrait orientation which is kind of annoying when travelling. AFAIK a7IV behaves in the opposite way, how about this? Thank you.

Great review Chris... Any chance you could do a review on the Sony 28-60mm f4-5.6 kit lens(?) that can be bought with this camera and the A7CR as part of a package (or stand alone)... I think it could be really helpful for people considering the purchase, that and it is possibly the smallest and lightest zoom for the Sony E mount system...

I usually value your reviews, but it's quite ironic a channel focused on pixel peeping and analysing nuanced details about bokeh quality does not mention that this camera does not feature a fully mechanical shutter, but only an EFCS which has a bigger effect on your image than any slightly soft lens or "busy bokeh" ever will. The result of such lazy reviews is a plethora of user reviews asking why their bokeh looks so weird. You even recommend the camera to portrait shooters...
1/4000 shutter speed. Electronic front curtain shutter, no mechanical shutter. Another huge con: batter life, 540 CIPA vs 740 CIPA on the original A7C. But a pro, they didn’t put a silver shutter button on the black body model.
i dont see how the size of the camera will make any difference to the subject once i pair it with some decent glas. if i shoot a wedding i better bring good glas and good glas tends to be big enough to make the size of the body neglectable. it will only make a difference if i pair it to a lens that never ever should even consider dreaming about a ND filter being attached to it.
It makes a difference because most people will testify that having a giant monster of a camera pointed at you can be a bit intimidating, and wouldn't help a photographer blend in at a wedding
@@christopherfrost I can highly confirm that from my own experience. The smaller the room or the more intimate the setting, the more people become conscious of the cameras size.
Can somebody once and for all confirm if the A7Cii has a true mechanical shutter? PetaPixel says it doesn't and I can clearly see the option for it in this video.
Sony keep bringing out more models with various gimmicks but ISO noise is not great and nor is the rolling shutter for €2500 this is something they keep in their midrange cameras models .Looks like a A6000 with a larger FF censer .Plus a few extra gimmicks.
I don't get why they do not go all-in when they say it's 'compact'... there is nothing compact about the a7C and never has been. It's huge. They could have made it compact though.
what do you mean screen is high resolution? it's just 1mp. it might be the lowest resolution screen on the market (in terms of resolution). sony uses 1mp for years, most complain about that, and rightfully so. a $300 phone has better screen
Sony is money milking all those photogrpahers who have absolutely no taste for good camera gear. Who else would buy such overpriced cameras with low quality viewfinder, low quality display and only one card slot? Mostly made for tech nerds or inexperienced users.
EVF is too small no joystick no dual slot there is the problem that the buttons are too small and too close to each other is a suffering to use a camera of this type and I would never pay 3,700 euros in Italy for the 60 megapixel A7 RC model

How can people listen to this ? Doesn't sound natural
Say NO to Sony cameras
EVF is too small no joystick no dual slot there is the problem that the buttons are too small and too close to each other is a suffering to use a camera of this type and I would never pay 3,700 euros in Italy for the 60 megapixel A7 RC model
