Cameras with Sony Sensors

From what I understand, the 24mp (SL, Q1, M10, M240) and the 61mp (Q3, Q343, SL3, M11) are the same as the sensors in the A7 series. I don't know about the SL2S or the TL or the CL. The Q2 and SL2 are using something developed in collaboration with Panasonic (it's in the S1R too) The M10r has a one

Old Sony Users Who Switched To Panasonic; Any Regrets?

Over the past eight years, I’ve shot professionally with Sony cameras. I’ve used the a7III, a7IV, a7R V, and the FX3. They’re solid tools, no doubt about it. When Panasonic released the original Lumix S1, I decided to try it out of curiosity. I loved a lot about the camera, but the autofocus perform

I feel reluctant to buy more L mount glass

The honest answer is…the z8 and z9 are better cameras for the wildlife purpose. Albeit they are very large. My S5ii and Sigma 150-600 came to around 2.5k..that’s less than one Nikon Z8. So I’d expect it to be the better camera. The sigma 150-600 is a nice lens, the autofocus is slow though. The zoom

My first Lumix (S5 + 50mm 1.8)

I’m seriously considering one of these. I don’t need PDAF nor fancy video specs/features as I just still subjects like landscapes, architecture, and urban landscapes. So I just need a good full frame camera with great colors and a simple design for a solid price. Being a Lumix user already, the orig

Switching to Lumix S1RII (or S1II) for professional photography?

Hi, first of all I'd like to point out that based on your description in your post you can't go wrong with either of these great 2nd generation LUMIX cameras. If I may I'd like to share with you why we chose the S1 II over the S1R II. We tested the S1R II for a couple of months side by side to the S

Considering getting a S1r for general use photography as a back up to my S5ii, any thoughts

I actually did this a while back and if you can find a good deal on the S1R then I’d say go for it! It’ll make your S5ii feel like a toy though, it’s the best built Lumix camera I’ve ever felt and it’s so bloody comfortable in hand. It’s got so many nice features, Top LCD, backlit buttons, CFExpress

When buying a camera (as a hobbyist), are you more interested in the fun while shooting or the results?

Bit of both. I have a Lumix S1R I take for serious sessions where I don't need to lug it very far and i'm sitting throughout a sunrise/sunset. The 47mp raw files are pure joy to develop. But it's not a fun camera to use. COnversely I love shooting with my OM-1, which is arguably inferior in most reg

G9ii + full frame opinions?

Man that s1R is a dream camera for me. What do you use your g9ii for? I have a g9ii that I used mainly with the pano-leica 12-60mm for documentary and street/ portrait photography . I just picked up a used s5iix with the lumix s pro 50mm 1.4 and find it to be beautiful for stills and video. So far t

G9ii + full frame opinions?

The S1R cost less than my om-1. They have gotten pretty cheap used. If you can deal with a clunky slow camera with terrible ergonomics the a7r2 sensor is still fantastic today and you can buy them for around $600 (or at least you could back when I sold mine a year ago). I do prefer the output from m

Is Lumix better for video than photography?

This is a very generell question.I think Lumix cameras are just as good as most others for stills. If you look at specific details, Lumix has a very good stabilization and the best HighRes modes. Others are better equipped for high speed sports and nature with very long and fast lenses.I think Lumix
