    **UPDATE** At 6:30, I mislabeled the cameras. In the individual shots, the A7IV and FX3 are mixed up... a few seconds later when I show all 3 side by side, the labels are correct! Thanks to @zeko reko for pointing this out and keen eye!

      Quick question... according to sensor light, would the sigma 18-50 2.8 in apsc mode on the a7iv at 18mm have the same amount of sensor light as a full frame version 16-55 2.8 in 27mm on the a7iv in full frame? Like, will the 2.8 amount of light hitting the sensor be the same?

      ok...its now 3 weeks that Iam posting a question that no one seems could not answer.
      Is that possible to have a raw video file from the a7iv with hdmi conected to an external monitor like ninja 5! So no compression at all???

    Literally the only video I could find that went over the 1080p quality! Thanks for going over this, Dunna! Too many people get over excited by 4k and forget that you can only 120p in 1080. Glad you covered it

    I believe the crop in 4K/60 is because the sensor read out speed, at this price point, is too slow to read the entire space of the sensor for 60FPS. This is where of a lot of the added cost of the 7SIII/FX3/A1 comes from, the higher read speed sensor. This is also why the rolling shutter is an issue with this camera and not so much on the higher end bodies. This concept is the same for distorted silent shooting for fast moving subjects. By the time the sensor reads from top to bottom, the subject has moved in the frame.

    Been using the A7C for the last year and few months. It was my first full frame mirrorless camera when I transitioned from the Canon APS-C DSLR world (80D) to the Sony full frame world! At first I looked at the A7iii but I needed the updated video features, color science, autofocus and flip out screen that the A7C just so happened to have over the A7iii. Come about a year and a few months later and having made some money using the A7C, I think I’m ready to sell it so I can upgrade to the A7IV. The A7C has served me well and has helped me create great video and photo projects (even shot a wedding with it if you can believe it. No Duel SD card slot made it extremely stressful though lol) however I think in order to be taken more seriously as a professional creator and also be able to fully trust and rely on my gear with the additional pro features I’m not getting the with A7C. I think it’s worth the upgrade

    Very solid content as usual. As I have not shot a lot of video, but hope to, I still get dizzy with all the codecs, bit rates, LUTs, and color grading. Maybe you have a video that breaks all that down? Or maybe know one. But nevertheless this vidio reinforces my confidence in my A7iv decision. And the A7Cii just came out and I still think this is the better choice for me. Thanks for all your great content!

    as an aspiring content creator, this was such a useful video. I was stuck on the A7C or A7IV as a first serious workhorse camera. Knowing that the image quality between the a7c/a7siii vs the a7iv isn't much different, there isn't much incentive for me to get the a7iv, other than getting it for the video capabilities. That being said, i really should try out the a7c, invest the leftover money on some quality glass and in the future, upgrade to the a7iv instead of the a7siii for its video capabilities since it is much cheaper and still a pretty good video camera. Thanks for this video. I'll still go to my local camera shop and rent out these equipment to get a feel for the camera.
    Love this indepth review man.

    I am surprised that you missed the most important improvement, that of video focusing and tracking. The A7 IV is ahead of the A7c who is ahead of the A7iii. The user's control of how fast it tracks moving objects and people and how sticky you can make it, is the main reason most people are upgrading. And this is an area that demand fast processors (Like the A1). THAT is where the processing power went in case you still wonder :)

    I have an a6400 and find that I am missing some shots by using non-stabilized lenses (tamron 11-20 f2.8 and Sony 16-55 f2.8). My question is about selling this gear and upgrading to a body with IBIS. I really only shoot photos so am not concerned with video features. With the Sony a7iv being out, it seems like there are some great deals to be had on used versions of the a7iii so I was wondering if a used a7iii would be the best way to jump up to full frame, or if the a7iv is worth the extra money. I've seen really clean a7iii bodies going for around $2000 CAD which is a massive savings over the a7iv when you factor in taxes. Thanks for all the awesome videos!

    • @MusaaJames
      @MusaaJames 3 года назад

      I think that anything you use will be an upgrade over the 6400 when it comes to moving up to full frame the a7iii takes insane photos, the a7riii also takes insane photos and it has that 40 something megapixel sensor which is wild and also puts it in about the same photo range as the new a7iv with its 33 mp sensor so if you’re trying to get close to the a7iv get the a7riii it’s around 2400 used RN at least that’s what the one I saw today at Best Buy was selling for

    Hey, I'm a new-ish follower and fan of your stuff. I really appreciate this video and production that went into it. I've pre-ordered an A7IV and can't wait to start shooting with it.
    One small suggestion that I would have with regards to how this video was edited would be to introduce the different topics with the video "card" before you verbally say it. Right now, you have it backwards (you say what the next thing you're talking about is going to be, then you flash the card), but that basically adds nothing since what you say is usually more detailed than what the card has written on it.
    For example, at 6:18 you discuss video and skin tones. Your card reads very simply, "Video & Skin Tones." That is a great way to introduce the subject and prepare the viewer. Your verbal explanation of, "definitely a big question that some people wanted answered was the video quality, and specifically the skin tones verses the A7S III" would then fit in much better after the card since it is an expanded version of what the card has already stated / introduced and also fits in better after the audio cue you've employed. I hope that makes sense.
    (As an aside, this would also let you put the card right at the beginning of the chapter markers, if you were so inclined.)
    Keep up the great work, man!
    EDIT: A much more clear example is in the Crop Lenses section at 10:32. It's a bit redundant to use the card so long after you've introduced the subject.

    Weather sealing doesn’t mean you can submerge the camera under water or shoot with in the rain 🙄in either case you should have protective gear for the device. Weather sealing means that in high conditions of dust, rain, freezing temperatures, and moisture the camera is sealed enough that it can withstand and not be effected so easily. Water resistance means the camera can endure a splash or two and they mean water coming from above mostly rain. But you should use an umbrella and protect it as much as possible. That’s it. Also weather proofing doesn’t prevent condensation. The canons D lines are weather proof their thick heavy bodies are reliable. I would find it hard to believe the Sony match up to them but we shall see. I’ve had my mk ii for 8 years snd it works. Let’s see how long my Sony will last in weathered conditions.

    Here is why I think that the A7IV is better than the competition (in my opinion).
    Canon R6
    -No crop in 4k but overheats. It means that you are going to film in 4k more often on the A7IV.
    -The RF lenses are really expensive. You can buy EF lenses to adapt them but the autofocus won't be as good as with RF ones.
    -It only has 20mpx (which is not really an issue)
    -There is still the 30 minutes record limit.
    Nikon Z6II
    -Films in 4k60 with a 1.5x crop just like the A7IV.
    -Same as the Canon, there is no much lens choices here. On the contrary there are a lot of amazing third party lenses for Sony E-Mount.
    So again it's my opinion, it will depend on what you are going to do with the camera. I personnally shoot videos and photos. (I am going to upgrade from a GH5).

      I was using the Sony FX3 for that part. That’s my typical A-camera. That being said, there’s a lot of the look that comes from the lens choice, lighting and color grading too. It’s not necessarily that it comes out of the camera looking like that.

    How quickly does it switch between photos and video? I am a hybrid shooter for weddings. I need to be able to switch quickly between photos and video throughout the day. The a7iii is slow in this regard, especially if there’s anything in the buffer after firing off multiple photos. The Nikon z6ii almost instantly switches back and forth with no issue, but I want to stick with Sony if possible.

  • @gillesmatheronpro

    A crucial difference I see in your landscape images is to be found in the dynamic range. When looking at rocks, cliffs, trees, it's obvious : the amount of definition in the darker areas is huge compared with the Alpha 7M3. When it shows a dark stripe of tree apexes, the AM4 show each apex in detail. And it just is similar with the rock-walls and cliffs : so much more to see there.
    Does it matter, really ? Ask landscape-only photographers, mainly the ones who use chambers or medium-format cameras. Why do they use these devices, are they just masochists, did they win those at some lottery ?
    Details in landscape are just as important as the quality of the raw cocoa in real hand-made "truffes" (the things you call truffles in Northern America). This is what makes the difference between good and oustanding. For its price, the 7M4 produces outstanding images, and it takes about 3 times its retail price to see a concrete difference in image depth, dynamic, definition.

    A lot of people are complaining about the 4k60 being APS-C only. The thing is though, at this price point, only the R6 is offering 4k60 in FF mode, and it overheats. Could Sony have done it in FF mode? I'm going to say probably not. The reason is, I don't think the A7iv and A1 have the same chip in it. Yes it's the same family like say Intel 11th Gen or AMD Zen 3 chips, but like those 2 companies, they have cheaper, and more expensive chips. I think the A7iv has a cheaper chip in it, so it can't do 4k60 in FF. They did this not only to save money, but to keep a separation between the A7iv and the A7Siii.

    There is one feature of the touch screen i haven't seen anyone mention. If you scroll though the screen displays (using the up on the back scroll wheel) all the cameras setting are displayed, turning on the touch screen, touch any of the settings and adjust them. You have to double tap on any of the settings that will pull up the settings menu.
    Found this to be a quick way to adjust multiple settings quickly.

    To me it is a big upgrade to a7III/a7c. But my situation is I am always bring and use 2 cameras for my video shoot. My a7III and a7c works seamlessly together. For wedding if we have second shooter, then we have like 4, 5 cameras. It is kind pointless for one camera has 10bit 422 shooting slog3 and rest of cameras still shoot 8bit 420 in cine2 or hlg. I would say if one has a7sIII and want a second camera is less expensive than a7sIII but still retain all the codec, then this is the great option. But for me until I can afford two a74, I will still stick to my current camera set up.

  • @johnioannidis6466

    Waiting to get the A7iv here for Travel Cinematography, the price difference with the A7sIII is major money savings. Savings of abt 1300 euro in Greece which is a nice Tamron 2.8, and an RSC2 Pro combo based on greek Prices... The 4K 120 is the only thing I wish the A7iv would have but I think with the added bitrates for 1080p 120FPS you can definitely "fake" it with a careful upscale. Rolling shutter is definitely not pretty but nothing you can't solve with careful shot planning and even some post processing

    Great video, thank you. I am lucky enough to have the Sony a1, but I am looking for a B cam for many scenarios and I am considering the A7IV. The concern I have with the rolling shutter issues is, I shoot a lot of kids dance concerts. A question for you: If I had the A7IV locked off on a tripod for the wide shot to capture the whole stage (so the kids would be fairly small), so you think it would be an issue? The kids would be moving through the frame quickly, but I am not sure that at a distance the rolling shutter would be an issue. I’d appreciate your views.

    Great review, I’ve learnt so much, I have a question, or maybe a concern, I purchased a A7 IV yesterday, on taking the body out of the box, I could hear clunky sound, and also feel movement within the body. I asked a friend who has a A7 III, and he said once you turn the camera on, the noise and movement will disappear, he also said it was the inbuilt stabilisation system that was causing the sound and movement. Is this normal Dunno or should I return the camera, any advice would be very welcome.
