A7rV is awesome! The flip screen is the best the only thing is large file sizes and line skipped 4k video. Overall I’d pick the Sony a7IV the Uncompressed RAW from the a7iv has 15+ stops dynamic range you get super blue skies and super fine details in feathers of birds also 61mp vs 33mp is not a big difference when cropping in.
I have the a7iv. Also got the a7rv at release. After I used both, i realized for my needs (just photography and uploaded to social media) i dont need the r5 so I ended up reselling it to a photographer for 1k over msrp. I still have the a7iv and im still super happy
Did you notice any differenerce in color between the two camera especially skin tone ? Some youtuber say A7R5 has better much better color rendition than IV, this would one of the major reason for me.
What do you like better about A7R5 over the A74 ? I am debating between them right now. Some say skin tones is more natural on A7R5 and has overall colors, is that true ?
Well, I have the both, and I love them equally. A7R V is a beast and I don't want to use it all the time since I think 61 Megapixels are too much for a random photo session that I do for work, in the meantime I'm using A7 IV a bit more since 33 Megapixels seems the right amount for regular photo sessions, and I use it for videos, also it's less noisy for videos than A7R V. :) Yeah, I love Sony!
@@DannyBligh or try the 26mp medium raw and it still delivers excellent image quality and better low light noise performance too. That's why A7R V is better because it gives you options, solid options.
Reduced dynamic range on the highlights though. If you have an overexposed sky on a lossless M file and try to pull back the highlights, there isn’t much there to be recovered.
Do you see much color difference in the images produced by A7RV and A7IV ? Looking at sample images online it looks to me A7IV images lean heavinly towards the warm and yellow side , while A7RV produces better balance in color but i may be wrong since its only sample images.
@@Jamal.official300 I shot everything in RAW, and the difference is basically non-existent. A7R V just has way more details with its 61 megapixels sensor.
If you can afford the camera, the storage and the computer required to edit this monster images, there is really no competition. A7Rv is the master of all. I cant. Currently running an A7Rii, and at just 42.2 Mpxl it already eats up my storage like crazy and my computer struggles. Saving up now to upgrade to the A7iv. I will miss the 42.2 mpxls, but I really need/want the better AF (especially the bird AF) of the A7iv and better video 10-bit S-cinetone. But the A7RV is the ultimate dream tbh.
From a pure 100% photography only perspective, I am not sure if the A7R5 is worth the double the price of the A74 (4500 vs 2250 euro). I love the 61MP but would always keep it on LosslessCompressed M to get a 26MB file, which means I can use the APS-C crop mode and retain the same 26MP size. The screen is cool too and the EFV has amazing magnification. However, there is nothing in the A74 that isn't way more than good enough for all my uses.
The one from the wedding? My own presets. Every photo i edit is edited normally from a preset that I’ve personally created and adjusted to suit. It’s a presets i created maybe 2 years ago and used for every wedding photo
Hi, I have the Sony A7RV. When I use the sensor cleaning function (dust) and run the command, the sensor does not vibrate like in the Sony A7IV, but remains still and only a slight tick tick is heard. People told me that it is normal of this sensor do not vibrate why Sony A7RV uses new generation ultrasound. This is true ?
Hi, I have the Sony Zv-E1. I cant decide between the A7cii and the A7cr as my 2nd camera. I mainly shoot video but I want my 2nd camera to be able to shoot stills and still be great for video. Which one shall I go for? Btway love your videos man. ( A7cr has pixel binned 4k that is swaying me away from it)
Not really sure about the A7cr, never really looked in to it. But the A7cii seems like a decent camera. But go with your gut! The whole pixel binning thing is meh to me. Look at the footage, does it look good? Yes = buy it. No = don’t buy it. We get caught up on this technical stuff too much imo. Hope that helps!
how about comparing the A7IV to the A7R IV It costs between 500-900 euros more than the A7IV Im very much debating between those Iam in very lowlight situations aswell as typical Street Photography settings. And i feel i dont film as much as i would photograph.
It feels the exact same, however the screen sticks out from the body a fraction more i think. Can’t say for sure though mate!! Would love to try underwater photography though!!
@@DannyBligh as long as the buttons are in the same place, which from what I can tell they are (need to get one in my hands and put it in the housing) the back isn’t flush to the camera so I doubt that would be an issue! I wanted an upgrade but don’t wanna replace the housing 😂
I'm currently doing wedding, general events, family portrait photography and architectural recreationally. I've been using a Nikon DSLR, my most recent one is the D7500 and I am looking to switch to mirrorless and upgrade. the DSLR has been limiting especially in low lighting situations and I have been looking at both the sony alpha 7rV and 7iv, but cannot decide the better camera to purchase for my use. For my purposes should I go with the 7iv or the 7rv? can I still crop down if I need to for the 7iv and which one is better for low lighting situations?
I think a7iv is a better pick, to me it has a better dynamic when it comes to video, 33mp is a nice spot to be for hybrid shooting, and is $1k cheaper u can buy a len, or a gimbal..... a7rv is too hyped, 8k that doesnt really work, 61mp...
I am taking photos of People( couples, families, Kids and portrait) which one should I buy? A74 or r5? I want to use tamron 35-150 f2-2.8 as a lens. Can you give me advice pls. Thank you.
@@mehmetylmaz-bu1fmSkin tone is really only an issue if you shoot in jpeg. With RAW, you can adjust skintones to whatever you want. So I never really understood the big issue with skintones in that regard. Video is another dilemma, however
For Sony, if these aren’t to your standards then probably not. Not sure what the zve1 is like, not used one or seen one in the flesh - sorry. The Lumix S5ii is decent but does have more rolling shutter than say the A7Siii. But that’s a really affordable camera especially when looking at the overall features. Other than that, not that I can think of but somebody else may be able to advise in other brands
If you’re having to move systems entirely from EF lenses to Sony, i’d buy the A7iv. It’s not as good for video as the A7Siii but it’s as important to buy a nice lens as is it to buy a camera with the ‘best’ features. Learn and gain skills and then maybe upgrade your camera body
I own zve10 and I’m starting on the photo/video world, I’ve been recently getting some jobs on the area, when bought my kit I wasn’t thinking of working with the camera but suddenly has been making sense to make money while I’m finishing college, I want to upgrade my camera and have my zve10 as B cam, I’m in doubt currently, here in Brazil things are expensive but for what I gathered is something like 33% diff in price between the two, what are your thought?? I would pretty much appreciate it
A Sony Alpha7R III é uma câmara brutal. A única coisa que na minha opinião justifica comprar a A7RIV ou a A7IV é a quantidade absurda de pontos de focagem, extremamente útil para quem faz retratos. ( btw, eu estou neste momento na China super feliz com a minha A7R 1 que nem sequer tem Eye AF haha. Para fotografias com F1.8 tenho de usar MF. )
Isto para dizer que não precisas de uma A7RV… nem de uma A7RIV se for demasiado cara no Brasil. Eu tenho a primeira câmara da linha e mesmo assim consegui tirar fotografias de rua brutais apenas com face recognition.
@@aspilobo aqui as duas tem uma diferença não muito grande em valor, A7IV e a a7Riii cerca de 350 dólares ou 1700 reais, apesar de eu ver a qualidade em fotografia com os 42mp eu acredito q talvez o 10 bit color e 4k60 e melhor sejam mais vantagens vendo que eu faço trabalhos híbridos, mas è um ponto a se considerar, eu ainda não decidi de nenhuma forma
I think I'm lucky to find the A7Rv at 1155 Omani Rials ($3,003 USD) and the A7iv at 805 OMR ($2,093) all brand new + warranty. Was considering buying either 1x A7Rv or 2x A7iv along with my A7SIII. The margin now becomes small so for a 1 camera I would definitely go for the A7Rv as it's something that will last for years to come as a high-end photography camera and a good videography as a B-Cam, especially in 8K to have various angles within one shot as you can use up to %400 (native 1080p) on a 4K timeline and still look pretty good. As for 4K@24fps it has 15ms rolling shutter which is decent. So making room for a future A9III or A1 II 3rd cam = Jack of all trades camera (A1 II / A9 III "the most perfect camera in the world"), low light beast (A7SIII), photography monster (A7Rv). Might sell the A7Rv if I get the A1 II though and probably downgrade to a second hand A7iv. On weddings I would need at least 2 cameras, 1 for video and the other for photos. Having a 3rd one would be more like for "finesse" with unique angles and capturing emotions instead of just recording the event in general. But I'm a wildlife and documentary filmmaker mainly, which currently is only a money drain so I have to compensate with other profitable ventures. You provide top quality videos, subbed!
I shoot with both the A7RV and the A7IV simultaneously as a pro photographer, and you’ve hit the nail on the head Danny, the RV is far superior and feels much better in the hand when in use. The 7IV is fantastic for stills but given the choice if I only go out with one camera it’s the RV every time!
Yeah, when the A7iv came out I owned the A7siii and A7iii. I liked what the A7iv delivered but it didn’t deliver what I needed personally. So I held out and sure enough, the A7Rv came a year later. Yeah, we own the A7iv but it’s simply an ‘affordable’ B-cam in our eyes however to a lot of people, it’s capable of achieving what they need 🤌🏻 Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 🙌🏻
Great video! I’m just starting out so all of this is new to me. I’m looking to video my kids youth sports, make highlight videos for them and also take good pics during play. Which camera would you recommend? Please something with internal stabilization.
Can't go wrong with the A7iv in my opinion. Fantastic camera, great photos and video and would do you for a very long time. Only downside is the cost of the camera and the lenses due to it being full frame. Perhaps pick one up used. If you'd sooner keep the cost smaller, the A7Cii would be great but still full frame so your lenses would be expensive still. Or, go for something like the A6700. The lenses for an super35 / APS-C sensor is much cheaper but for me, doesn't handle great at larger ISOs which is what you may need for sport. I guess you get what you pay for. All of these cameras today have internal stabilisation and if you went for a long lens like a 70-200 (which is perfect for sport) you'd have stabilisation in the lens also. Hope that helps!
@@DannyBligh thank you I appreciate it. I was considering the a7r5 but if the a7iv will be everything I need, then I’ll save the money extra money and get a good lens. Which starter lens would you recommend for basketball and football?
@@Wow_jamellan A7Rv would be ideal but it’s a lot of money if you’re just starting our. Your choice though! I’d go for a 70-200 especially for backetball. An F4 lens would be okay but ideally you need as much light as possible so f2.8 would be perfect. Which brand is entirely down to you, i really like the sony one but tamron and sigma both make them. Not tried them enough to comment on them though
No, i’ve tried so many times to nail it and got average results. Results that are okay but not enough for me to help others. Still hoping to do it eventually though
Merhaba Danny video için teşekkürler. Bende geçen hafta sony a7 4 aldım. 60 fps 4.2.2 10 bit videoda 3 dakika sonra kamera ısınıp kapanıyor. Isınma ayarı standarttı. Yüksek yaptım. Bu kez 26 dakika sonra ısınıp kapandı. Bu ısınma durumu normal mi? Sende de aynısı oldumu? Kamerayı kontrol için servise gönderdim.
Hey! I can't recall whether I've ever tested the camera in 60fps (or it would be 50 in the UK) for a long period of time. I wouldn't ever use it normally unless it's to slow down in post, which I would probably only do bursts of recording, maybe 30 seconds most. However, I remember getting the A7iv on hire a year and a half ago and having problems with it overheating. In fact, it kept overheating as I was making a video about it. But, the one we have in the business (the camera featured in this video) has never overheated on me. I've used it for videos on this channel, filming for 45+ minutes in the office, we use it weekly for weddings when filming ceremonies and sometimes speeches and It has never been a problem. 2 things I recommend to anybody using a Sony camera; 1) make sure the temp setting is set to High (like you already have). 2) keep the screen flipped open when filming anything. It's also very dependant on where you are in the world to, not sure where you are but the UK is cold 364 days of the year ;) I hope this helps, I hope you get it sorted!
Depends what you want out of your camera! The A7cii looks nice, i’ve had a little look at that over the last week and like it. However, only one card slot so for my kind of work (weddings) that would cut it. There’s a lot to talk about with that camera i feel but I don’t have enough experience with it. We needed a hybrid camera for that extra angle on weddings and the A7iv filled the spot. But, I bought the A7rv first and if i could justify the cash, i’d probably swap the A7iv for one 🤷🏻♂️
@@dexteroiioreally?! That’s interesting that you think that. I actually think it’s better but I won’t say you’re wrong 😂 Here’s my take (this was going in the video but didn’t make the cut!) Every time i’ve exported my photos for weddings I always feel like the a7rv looks better in the high iso ranges. Now we’re talking 6400-12800 at most! But, i think part if that is down to the images being viewed/printed at the same size therefore the noise is technically smaller and less noticeable. But really interesting you think it🙌🏻 i love reading peoples thoughts
@@dexteroiioand then in terms of dynamic range, i’ve never found one to give me that much better results than the other however i’ve never done any side by side tests, it’s just from general usage
@@DannyBlighthere are a lot of test here on yt that compare the high ISO performance and all this test show how the a7iv is better in low light performance. But we are talking about nothing. Pixel peeping. I think that are both great camera, I don’t understand who says that the a7iv is obsolete 🤯. The a7rV cost double and obviously offers more! IHO
Yeah it's not in the name technically. But when using roman numerals it's common to say "mark" before the numerals. M or Mk is the placeholder. He probably just misspoke. But I'm also at the beginning of the video.
It is the EASIEST comparison. Study all the features of the A7R5 and you will be blown away. I had the A74 and it was just OK. It's old, it's running old chips. Even the a6700 (which I own) outclasses the A74. As I said, what the A7R5 and the A7CR can do blows the A74 out of the water. Today, I would not recommend the A74 due the fact one day the A75 will come out, maybe. I don't really see much reason for it. Again, what the A7R5 can do makes the A74 obsolete. It had its day. It was the greatest thing back then, but progress is passing it by like A7R5 rendered the A7R4 obsolete. Damn, my A7R3 better not hear me saying that.
I had the A74 for almost two years, sold it for the A7R5... It's better in literally every way, well worth the extra $ IMHO.
Yeah man, i’m super happy with it! Performed so well this last year
A7rV is awesome! The flip screen is the best the only thing is large file sizes and line skipped 4k video. Overall I’d pick the Sony a7IV the Uncompressed RAW from the a7iv has 15+ stops dynamic range you get super blue skies and super fine details in feathers of birds also 61mp vs 33mp is not a big difference when cropping in.
Would you recommend it for photography only? Over the a7 Iv 👀👀👀👀👀
Yes@@MRG_1
No one mentions that the shutter on the r5 has a much longer life expectancy. That can make the price difference effectively much less no ?
I have the a7iv. Also got the a7rv at release. After I used both, i realized for my needs (just photography and uploaded to social media) i dont need the r5 so I ended up reselling it to a photographer for 1k over msrp. I still have the a7iv and im still super happy
Yeah for some people it’s way too much for their actual needs and I 100% respect that. Glad you realised and was able to sell it 🙌🏻
Did you notice any differenerce in color between the two camera especially skin tone ? Some youtuber say A7R5 has better much better color rendition than IV, this would one of the major reason for me.
I traded my A74 for A7R5. I have no regrets, it’s a beast.

@@DannyBligh thank you I appreciate it. I was considering the a7r5 but if the a7iv will be everything I need, then I’ll save the money extra money and get a good lens. Which starter lens would you recommend for basketball and football?
@@Wow_jamellan A7Rv would be ideal but it’s a lot of money if you’re just starting our. Your choice though!
I’d go for a 70-200 especially for backetball. An F4 lens would be okay but ideally you need as much light as possible so f2.8 would be perfect. Which brand is entirely down to you, i really like the sony one but tamron and sigma both make them. Not tried them enough to comment on them though
We still waiting for the A7S3 update!
It’ll happen one day 😂
Did you ever do the video on focus bracketing? :)
No, i’ve tried so many times to nail it and got average results. Results that are okay but not enough for me to help others. Still hoping to do it eventually though
Who's the subject in your video here? It's bugging me; but I think I know him!
The one and only Sam Holland! ha!
I'm racking my brain where I know him from; maybe years back! Jon@@DannyBligh
Merhaba Danny video için teşekkürler. Bende geçen hafta sony a7 4 aldım. 60 fps 4.2.2 10 bit videoda 3 dakika sonra kamera ısınıp kapanıyor. Isınma ayarı standarttı. Yüksek yaptım. Bu kez 26 dakika sonra ısınıp kapandı. Bu ısınma durumu normal mi? Sende de aynısı oldumu? Kamerayı kontrol için servise gönderdim.
Hey! I can't recall whether I've ever tested the camera in 60fps (or it would be 50 in the UK) for a long period of time. I wouldn't ever use it normally unless it's to slow down in post, which I would probably only do bursts of recording, maybe 30 seconds most.
However, I remember getting the A7iv on hire a year and a half ago and having problems with it overheating. In fact, it kept overheating as I was making a video about it. But, the one we have in the business (the camera featured in this video) has never overheated on me. I've used it for videos on this channel, filming for 45+ minutes in the office, we use it weekly for weddings when filming ceremonies and sometimes speeches and It has never been a problem. 2 things I recommend to anybody using a Sony camera; 1) make sure the temp setting is set to High (like you already have). 2) keep the screen flipped open when filming anything.
It's also very dependant on where you are in the world to, not sure where you are but the UK is cold 364 days of the year ;)
I hope this helps, I hope you get it sorted!
@@DannyBligh hızlı cevabın için çok teşekkür ederim. video testlerini oda sıcaklığında ve ekran açıkken yaptım. Umarım servisten iyi bir haber gelir.
Let me know what the result it, I'd be interested to find out
@@DannyBligh tabiki, sonuçlanınca yazarım.
@@DannyBligh servis cihazı kontrol etti, normal olduğunu söyleyip geri gönderdiler. Test ettim XAVC S 4K 24 fps de sorun olmuyor.
This just in: the camera that costs $2k more is a better camera😮
Yeah, I don’t understand why people are acting surprised.
Great video Danny, thank you! We're looking to upgrade our hybrid shoot camera and the A7iv is up there. Are there any others that you would consider?
Depends what you want out of your camera!
The A7cii looks nice, i’ve had a little look at that over the last week and like it. However, only one card slot so for my kind of work (weddings) that would cut it. There’s a lot to talk about with that camera i feel but I don’t have enough experience with it.
We needed a hybrid camera for that extra angle on weddings and the A7iv filled the spot. But, I bought the A7rv first and if i could justify the cash, i’d probably swap the A7iv for one 🤷🏻♂️
Nice video, so Sir what's you ended up ? Have you still have A7R5 or something different?
Trade a7iv for 7rv, and i have only one but very big regret - iso perfomance is much more poor compare to a7iv.
For photo or video?

@@dexteroiioreally?! That’s interesting that you think that. I actually think it’s better but I won’t say you’re wrong 😂
Here’s my take (this was going in the video but didn’t make the cut!)
Every time i’ve exported my photos for weddings I always feel like the a7rv looks better in the high iso ranges. Now we’re talking 6400-12800 at most! But, i think part if that is down to the images being viewed/printed at the same size therefore the noise is technically smaller and less noticeable.
But really interesting you think it🙌🏻 i love reading peoples thoughts
@@dexteroiioand then in terms of dynamic range, i’ve never found one to give me that much better results than the other however i’ve never done any side by side tests, it’s just from general usage
@@DannyBlighthere are a lot of test here on yt that compare the high ISO performance and all this test show how the a7iv is better in low light performance. But we are talking about nothing. Pixel peeping. I think that are both great camera, I don’t understand who says that the a7iv is obsolete 🤯. The a7rV cost double and obviously offers more! IHO
thanks
No problem at all 🙌🏻
it's a shame in 2023-24 to say that the A7IV is good for networks and if you are a serious photographer you need the A7R...
Fantastic video!
Thank you!🙌🏻
Why do you use the word "Mark"? I don't see that in the name of the cameras. Just say A7RV and A7IV. No need to say mark.
I think people say it because of Canon
Yeah it's not in the name technically. But when using roman numerals it's common to say "mark" before the numerals. M or Mk is the placeholder.
He probably just misspoke. But I'm also at the beginning of the video.
It is the EASIEST comparison. Study all the features of the A7R5 and you will be blown away. I had the A74 and it was just OK. It's old, it's running old chips. Even the a6700 (which I own) outclasses the A74. As I said, what the A7R5 and the A7CR can do blows the A74 out of the water. Today, I would not recommend the A74 due the fact one day the A75 will come out, maybe. I don't really see much reason for it. Again, what the A7R5 can do makes the A74 obsolete. It had its day. It was the greatest thing back then, but progress is passing it by like A7R5 rendered the A7R4 obsolete. Damn, my A7R3 better not hear me saying that.
One costs around 2k less.
you forgot about low light situations where a7r v totally loose and its total rubbish because make a lot of noise !!!
Ya I don't care about the filming but the screen and how it does the tilt was the selling point lol I'm coming from the A7III
Love this 😂
Video is boring, I never do video.
Love my Sony A7R V!!
