Je mozna recenze a7 iii vs Nikon Z6 ii ? Ze Z6 ii mi prijdou videa ostrejsi i ve tmě. Ale lepsi fotky mi prijdou z A7 iii nemohu se rozhodnout.
Bohužiaľ nie, Nikonom sa momentálne nevenujem. Ostrosť videa je len vecou nastavenia a zvoleného profilu, podľa toho by som sa nerozhodoval. Množstvo detailov je rovnaké, keďže obidva točia dowsamplovane 6K na 4K video.
@@TheHybridShooter A u nás je teď akce na a7r iii cenově teď vyjde jako a7 iii má smysl brát a7 iii když za stejnou cenu mohu koupit 7r iii ? Myslím že by se mi hodilo víc Mpix na krajinu. Ale nepohoršim si u a7r iii při natáčení videa v hořím světle údajně si líp poradí a7 iii s horším světlem ? Chtěl bych to brát i na hudební akce na videa. Díky za odpověď.
@@jiri2040 Na video určite radšej A7 III bez R. Tie extra megapixely na R sú v podstate užitočné iba pri veľkej fine-art tlači.
I very much appreciate how complete and yet concise all your videos are. I have used your posts to make selections on what gear to buy several times. I especially enjoy how beautifully your videos are illustrated with actual pics and video from the products you are testing rather than just a talking head. This is a perfect example.. Best wishes for the New Year,,
Super informative video! Thanks! 😊
This man keeps giving us the perfect reviews 👌🏼
I agree
Been a subscriber for two years now due to your objective and super high quality reviews. Great job as always!
Thank you, I appreciate your long-term support!
i just love how clearly u explained these differences , i really appreciate your content , keep it up man !
Thank you!
Love your videos… thank you
Truly a top reviewer! 📷✌🏻
Thanks for the consistently great content.
Thank you!
amazing review as always, thanks
You're welcome, thank you for watching!
Great video. I really hope some of the features of the 7C go into the next version of the 7III. The doors on the side for one and the gyro capability the other. I am sure Sony will increase the mpixel size of the viewfinder, which the only thing that held me back from purchasing one. You have both, which one do you end up using most of the time? Thanks for the comparison. Stay Safe!!
Thank you! it is pretty safe to say that all of that will definitely be in A7 IV. I Don't really use any camera in the traditional sense at moment due to travel restrictions, so it depends on what I am reviewing.
Love your voice! Haha makes these videos easy to listen to while not watching the screen
Thank you!
Was a useful video helps me narrow down my choice. I am more photocentric and that’s my bias towards A7 iii. I will still hold on to my A7 ii which is still a great camera.
Great review keep up the great work!
Thank you!
My god... Thank you again, you're just making exactly what I need right now hahaha
You're welcome!
Hello there, your reviews are very professional. Pozdrav zo Slovenska :)
Ďakujem!
Thank you my friend! Very nice comparison between the two cameras! I look forward to your review of the 28-60mm kit lens that was designed for the A7C. Do you think the A7C would be too much of a compromise for 80% photos/ 20% videos use case (knowing that the A7III has better ergonomics and view finder for photography)?
You're welcome! Unfortunately, I am not sure if I will be able to do that, I will have to send the lens back soon.
awesome! thanks! i think iwill go with a7c because of- better autofocus + more buffer + gyro stabilisation. the last will be useful when i randomly need a video, but dont have a gimbal- because i dont have a gimbal. i want to keep setup minimal. but the a73 did put up a great fight even in 2022!
thanks for the video- you answered my questions!
You're welcome, I'm glad that it was helpful!
Thank you very much for amazing review and great comparison. I am willing to buy a full frame Camera, am looking for more of Travel photography, which one do you suggest.
A7C is smaller so I think it's better for travel. But note you cannot shoot faster than 1/2000 at fast apertures or you will cut the bokeh in half because of the Electronic Front Curtain that cannot be turned off.
Great follow up video. I think I'm sold on the A7C now.
Thank you!
The gyro stabalisation is very handy. I have a ZV1 and its pretty impressive when you know how to use it. It definitely can get you some fake gimbal shots.
When can the gyro stabilization be used in other softwares than Catalyst Browse? e.g. DaVinci? Or is the gyro data format totally proprietary?
Nobody knows, it is proprietary at the moment.
The best comparison ever 👏👏👏
What software works with Gyro data?
how do you remove rolling shutter in post?
7:44, how do you get the “flying cam effect”, warp stabilizer? I get way more walking movement in the footage.
You need to practice it.
Hey, buddy, thanks a lot and you help me tons! I would rather choose A7C between them because it's the latest model, the only concern is the A7C has one slot.
You're welcome! Being the latest model is not very relevant decision making factor though.
thanks for information
You're welcome!
It was nice and detailed review. I am very curious about how big difference is there in terms of jpeg colors.
In your experience which of these camera has better looking jpeg images straight out of camera without any modification.
Thank you! It is explained in the video.
Yes, I have noticed the color comparison you mentioned but I assumed that was for videos. Actually I am very much concerned with JPEG colors only. What you explained holds true for JPEGs as well?
Those two side-by-side stills are unedited JPEGs, it is the same for both stills and video.
Do you feel or think the A7III is a good alternative B-cam to the A7C? Or even the other way around? Thanks for your input! 👍
Yes, they have basically the same output.
Which is best for wedding shoot and Any events??????
There is also one big difference if you using shutter above 1/1000 and faster and HSS with flash. Sony A7C has only electronic first curtain shutter and you can't change it to mechanical and it could create some problems with photography.
I don't think that average A7C users will do much photography with flash.
You should review the Oclu action camera. It looks really good but i think u could make better judgement ✅
It doesn't look very interesting to me, to be honest.
@@TheHybridShooter how come u dont like it? Im asking because I am considering buying it.
@@franciscollamosa9775 No stabilization in 4K video is a deal breaker for me.
@@TheHybridShooter okay, i didnt know that, thats good to know, im assuming gopro has stabilization in 4k though?
excellent review. I have an A7II and am looking to upgrade. Would you say it will be useful for Landscape and street photography ? I hike a lot and would really appreciate any decrease in weight.
Thank you! Both are generally very good landscapes cameras due to excellent dynamic range.
@@TheHybridShooter great! looks like I will take a look at the a7c In the shops soon. Thanks!
Nice comparison...
Thank you!
Do you think the A7III is still a good choice in 2022/2023 for my first full frame camera? Or should I go with a more slightly updated A7C 🤔
Well, that is basically what this video is about...
I just got the Canon EOS RP... Now I just may have to get that A7C. The video quality, auto focus and color science is much better. By the way, best camera testing I've seen from any RUclips. Very clean!
Thank you! A7C is indeed completely different league than EOS RP.
Very nice comparison
Thank you!
7c + manual lens (no electronic contact) - just eshutter can be used? There seems to be no mechanical shutter.
Yes, it can. There is mechanical shutter, it just works with EFC.
Whats the Best camera for Stills between fuji AND Sony including apsc AND fullframe
Dakujem, :)
Rado sa stalo!
For me, you are 1st on RUclips
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Can you compare the sonys with the fujis?
Yes, I can.
Angkor Wat looks really amazing 🇰🇭
I'm interested in Angkor Wat picture from Cambodia
Zdravím, jako vždy profi-review ! Omlouvám se za hloupý dotaz: Ten mladík na videích co máte, jste Vy osobně? Já jen, že Vás hlas tom absolutně neodpovídá - zní poklidným starším dojmem.. Jinak jak v EN, tak v SK super videa!👍
Ďakujem pekne! Áno, som to ja, bohužiaľ som omnoho starší ako vyzerám byť :)
@@TheHybridShooter Nemělo to vyznít jako urážka :) jen mě to vždy překvapilo.. Jestli Vám syn neasistuje a tak :)
Jinak vážně, profi přístup - vždy mi poradí! 👍
@@joshuajilek Jasné, chápem. Bohužiaľ nie, celú produkciu robím iba ja.
How can u put peak design through that hole of a7c . I try many times but cant any suggestions.
Those are the V3 thin cord links, they fit with no issues. V4 won't work.
@@TheHybridShooter I used fishing line / thread to pull the V4 latest connectors through the hole. You need to pull hard but it works!
That is a bad idea, it will wear those down very quickly. If you can, definitely get V3 instead.
@@TheHybridShooter I only use the fishing line or thread to help me pull it through, after that I remove the thread and it's just attached with the connectors like normal.
I know, I tried that some time ago, but it didn't work very well, V3 are much better fit and more suitable overall.
I really like the a7c, but I have one question, if you're using 1/125, 1/250 shutter speeds will it have this weird effect that makes the "bokeh" more stressful? or it only applies to ultra fast shutter speeds like 1/1000?
You're thinking of electronic first curtain shutter
@@1fareast14 Yes, on a7c you don't have fully mechanical shutter, its either e-front curtain or electric.
I never turn EFC off on my A7 III, and I have never noticed any issues with bokeh. That is very rare and you generally don't need to be concerned with that even when using very high shutter speed.
Thanks. I just got the A7c
You're welcome!
Yessssssss
Good video. Do you have Facebook page?
Thank you! No, I don't, only Instagram.
@@TheHybridShooter Ok
Do you have any plan to review Nikon z 6 ii?
No, I do not.
I am looking forward to the Sony A74 with both 10 bit and 8 bit unlimited recording aswell as a Neutral picture profile alongside its log profiles (like Nikon has in all its camera's) also a flip out screen like on the Sony A7C and Nikon D5600.
I hope that will have tilt screen like A7 III.
@@TheHybridShooter let's hope they release a version where you can have either a tilt screen or a articulated screen like with Panasonic S1H
That would be the worst option. That mechanism is huge and it would compromise the portability.
@@TheHybridShooter Hmm maybe. But at least then maybe they could do one Sony A74 with one type off screen and another Sony A74 with another type off screen. Then that would be a radical and actually unique move. And it would set them apart from other camera manufacturers in that sense.
@@ruff1draft That is impossible, that would add too much cost in the whole supply and market chain.
Is there any crop in 4k?
Only in 30p. 24p and 25p is without crop.
Is this crop also in sony a73 ? In 4k?
yes
I think most people are spoiled by size I don't really harp over it anymore but I used to have to carry around an Rz 6 / 7 not to mention you have to carry a 16mm film camera and a ton of lighting. The only thing that's really bothering me today is film codec. Every time you try to Master One lo and behold another one comes out. Will we ever come out with a gist standardized format and leave it at that how long before we stop this Breakneck speed?
Will they track your face with a mask on?
Sony just kills it with autofocus. But every time I see an EVF view the amount of information that surrounds the screen gives me anxiety haha. So much going on.
You can fully customize what you want to see, or just hide most of the information with Display button. Most of that stuff is set on Auto anyway.
Compare s5 vs a7c soon🙏🙏
I will not be comparing those, sorry.
@@TheHybridShooter so which is superior???
@@tamakhan7654 Neither, they are completely different cameras for different types of use.
What do you think is better deal? The A7C or A7S-III?
Well, that is very philosophical question, as they are completely different cameras. A7S III can do some stuff that only 30K+ cameras were able to do until now, so from certain points of view, it might be the best deal on the video market.
Whenever I hear hello my friends I feel like I have a friend.
I think they are best paired TOGETHER. A7C is the perfect secondary camera, they both have what the other doesn't so for anyone shooting weddings or events or even just having to switch lenses often, having these two together is a great combo I think. Appreciate the video man as always.
To be honest, I don’t see a point in buying both. Just getting A7 IV instead is a much better idea.
😍😍😍😍
I know the C isn't for me as I need all the grip I can have but damm it's sexy AF.
i bought the smallrig case for the a7c and it feels so much better now
@@kurtaddun2431 Doesn't that kinda ruin the point of having a small camera though?
Canon R6 or Sony a7iii?
I generally prefer E-mount system, so I would (and did) go with A7 III, but it depends on your preferences and usage. I haven't tested R6, so I can't tell you much about that.
I am curious but from which source you can claim a7III is one of the most color-accurate cameras on the market?
pdn testing.
The flange of a7III has six screws instead of the four screws of Sony a7C. This means that a7 III can handle with more safety much larger heavier lenses.
In general the Sony a7C is full of compromises in order to be smaller and lighter while the Sony a7 III is full of advantages.
Nevertheless I bought the Sony a7C because I am mostly a travel photographer. I am fit but after five hours of shooting without rest a heavy camera with a heavy lens is truly very uncomfortable.
Mirrorless cameras begun as a light smaller alternative to bulkier heavier dSLR cameras. That's why I bought my NEX-3 in 2011, the a7 in 2015 and a7C in 2021.
Of course lenses are another story. Electronics can be miniaturized quite easily with reasonable cost. The lens is very hard to have be small and light with great optical performance. Only Leica has succeeded that with its m-mount lenses but with an extraordinary price and without autofocus.
Cambodia?
Yes, there some of pictures were taken in Cambodia.
The a7III cannot record 4k 24 fps to both cards at the same time though. The second slot is a lot slower.
Of course it can, I use simultaneous video recording all the time. Even the slower SD slot is more than fast enough to record 4K.
If the A7 IV is not released, I think the A7 III will be a great camera, especially after the Canon system, which I have enough of. The advantage of the a7 III is that you can buy a used camera at a good price, only a rotated screen would be better than tilted in my opinion :)
Podle mě snížili spotřebu novějším úspornějším procesorem, jako u aps-c řady..
Nie, obidva používajú rovnaký CXD90027GF SoC. Úspora je len symbolická a spôsobuje ju menší hľadáčik.

Still waiting for a7iv, then decide which one to buy a7c or a7iv
2nd cmnt
If you're into VIDEO = a7c
- Unlimited recording
- Flip screen
- Polished Auto Focus
- Light & compact for small gimbals
If you're into PHOTOS = a7iii
- Custom buttons (saves time)
- Front and rear command dials
- AF joystick
- Larger viewfinder panel
- Double slot cards
Not necessarily, all A7 III advantages are useful for video as well, most A7C advantages are useful for both stills and video.
A lot of A7III will get a broken shutter.
Most of them won't.
The skin tones are different
No, they are not, as you can see in the video.
@@TheHybridShooter For example if you look here:
ruclips.net/video/MW1l9EZBmYY/видео.html
You see that A7C has better skin colors. It is not the only comparison where I found differences. Unfortunately I do not have both to compare. Maybe it is true only for certain picture profiles.
That was not the case in my testing, as you can see. I also used PP off. I have tested multiple scenes indoors and outdoors, with no signs of differences in colors. I have nothing more to add there...
if a7c was 1400 euros it would be a good deal for what it is.
Why not just 1000 euros :)
@@TheHybridShooter 1400 would be a comparable price for a low end camera with little video features like the nikon z5 and others in this price range. at its price the a7c should have at least 4k60 and other features the panasonic s5 has. panasonic is better in everything expect af . handling, custom buttons, view finder, better screen / touch screen, videofeatures and and and . plus it shares the same sensor .
Panasonic S5 is not a competitor of A7C, the price of S5 has no effect on A7C. There is a reason why Panasonic can't ask more for it. It is unusable for the target group of A7C (and a lot of modern filmmakers) due to poor AF. It is also much larger. A7C has one other huge advantage over the S5 which is the E-mount. IS also much better on the A7C due to gyro data.
@@TheHybridShooter lol any panasonic cam is good enough for vloging, even my dirt cheap ,old g81 does it well enough. panasonic does not need the gyro thing as the ibis is much much better. the a7c is good but not for this price. film makers still use manual fokus as the want control over af , the camera should focus where they want not what the camera wants. for average users the panasonic af is more than good enough i own several panasonics. i will buy a sony too but it will be a a7r4 for high end portraits. for the target market the s5 is a much better deal in my opinion. not being able to do slow motion with 4k is a dealbreaker for many content creators. slowmotion is a must for good looking b-roll and other things , using 1080 is no option in 2021
Your comment is "lol". Sorry, but this is about market segmentation, not about keyboard warriorship... no, the AF on L-mount cameras is not good enough for vlogging, that is one of the more difficult tasks. AF on L-mount is far behind GH5 / G9 and it isn't really any better than with G85. IBIS in S5 is about the same as in A7C / A7III, as you can see in my comparison. A7C destroys it with gyro data, again, as you can see.
No, modern filmmakers are NOT using manual focus only, it is not 2005 anymore. Oscar-winning documentaries are being shot using autofocus. 4K 60p on L-mount cameras is only cropped with significantly worse IQ in comparison with 25p.
Regarding the price - your are paying for the ecosystem, just like with Apple, Canon or Peak Design... That is the biggest advantage of E-mount cameras and the biggest weakness of L-mount cameras.
second smaller "relevant" full-frame camera... gosh
???
@@TheHybridShooter sorry, but the term "relevant" sounds a bit mean related to Z5, RP, both of which are about the same size, even smaller at some dimensions.
Z5 is clearly larger, RP is not relevant, I am completely fine with being mean to RP.
@@TheHybridShooter what are your thoughts about sigma fp?
Extremely niche camera with severe limitations for all-round use. I don't consider it to be very relevant either, if that is what you are asking :)
