    The A1 is a beast of a camera. Not sure I'll ever be able to afford it though so will stick with my A7RIII.

      @Burgunbeerd, hahaha!
      Well the negative is you’ll either get a divorce after the purchased and/or the silent treatment for awhile which I take back, might not be a bad thing.
      On a serious note, for budget conscious buyers, I would think it’s the price. At $5000-$5500, I think this would sell more. The way Sony holds their prices, it’s 1.5-2yrs away before it reaches that level or in the aftermarket.

      @burgunbeerd 3 года назад +1

      @@nomad0714 yeah agreed, the price is too steep. Though that price was set by canon Pro DSLR like the 1dx and whatnot which are probably also overpriced.
      And good news they gave it a downside by making the a7riv screen the new better one but not the a1!

    Hi Chris,
    Always appreciate sharing your real world experience as a pro user!
    As you said, if you see this as a 3 camera in one (A7R4 + A92 + A7S3) then for someone who wants one body, this is perfect.
    I have the A7R4 and A91 and contemplating if I should sell them off and get the A1, but then again I need a second body and perhaps just sell one off.
    Do you like your two body arrangement of A7R4 + A92 or if you could, just have one body with A1?
    Gerald mentioned he preferred to have two bodies even though he shoots video mostly with 2-3 A7S3 for his line of work.

    • @ChrisTurnerPhotographer
      @ChrisTurnerPhotographer  3 года назад +1

      Yeah i haven’t decided yet eh. I don’t think I’ll buy an A1 this year at least. I think if I was rich I’d definitely use 2 A1’s for sure. But the A9ii is totally fine for weddings

    This is what beginners & amateurs have been waiting for.
    Along with professionals that have to buy their own equipment. Under $8,000.00 is a great buy.
    Remember 20 years old, pro cameras like EOS-1VHS & F5 run around $2,000.00.
    Now you have a microTV screen in the viewfinder.

    At 8:30 I think there's a mistake? As I understand it, you can't record Slog-3 S-Cinetone. Maybe you meant S-Gamut3. Cine, SLog-3?
    S-Cinetone and SLog-3 are both color profiles, where SLog is similar to shooting RAW while S-Cinetone is a baked in "good out of camera" look, similar to shooting jpg.

    I see a few comments of people saying they can Afford it even yourself.
    But I ask myself, don’t you guys already do videos and photos as professional jobs?
    Why won’t you go for it and make yourself work harder till you pay it?
    Let’s say you buy the camera with two good lenses and some extras… it gets up to 10,000… is it that hard to make 10,000 a year on videos and photos?
    Sorry if I sound ignorant or I don’t know… is just that I’m planning on buying it and I never had a camera before … so reading you guys it makes me nervous.
    I do drone videos and lately, I been having a good amount of work, I feel if I combine my drone clips with the a1 I’ll be doing some nice and professional jobs.
    What do you guys think?

      Because it’s not necessary. It’s not going to make my work any better at all and clients certainly won’t notice it. It’ll make my job slightly easier and more fun but not enough to justify the cost.

      @youuuuuuuuuuutube 3 года назад

      The woman's eyes are in focus. The depth of field is quite shallow at f1.2 and the man's eyes are not exactly on the same plane of focus, they're a bit behind, so they're not perfectly sharp at 100%. But again, it doesn't really matter because the photos will be delivered at a lower resolution than 50MP I assume.

      Dedicated camera buyers have declined sharply. That's the reason why manufacturers are fighting a survival battle. Olympus quit already, Nikon closed down Japan plant and relocated to Thailand and so forth.

The difference between buying a Tesla Car and buying Tesla Stock 5 years ago... ... if you bought the stock; you'd be a millionaire; if you bought the car, you'd still owe $17,000.00 to tesla on a 6 yr finance.

It doesn’t beat any one of Canon 1DX3 or Nikon D6 especially when specs are only one aspect of the game and real shooting scenarios are entirely different game . Sony has a lot to catch up on build quality, ergonomics, functionality and usability. This is just an other blind photographer review or commercial as David said.

    It’s is not the best camera and it’s way over priced. There are lots of flaws in design and operation and all youtubers don’t talk about it and you are not an exception. R5 is ahead of it on many fronts especially ergonomics, functionality, price , grip and build quality. So don’t say it’s the best camera k in fact Nikon Z7ii is a good option too . Sony eye AF is the most overrated thing in camera industry. I have used them for the last 6 years and got rid of them last years .R5 is far better camera mate
