A7III

Ok sounds like I just need more practice. Are you also using "spot expand" focus and do you struggle to ensure the focal point is on your subject while both eyes are open or do you use a different focus method? The reason I ask is missed focus is the issue that bothers me the most but I'm starting t

A7iii isnt going to track a dog running this close to the camera, unless the dog stays at roughly this distance.

Yup, imagine it’s just a sensor change, not a AF upgrade. The Q3 AF is ok, but I moved to the Q3 from a Sony A7III and it was noticeably worse. Compared to modern Sony’s it must be awful.

Adapted lenses are okay but not mind blowing. I’d say a7iii type of experience at best. And you can have a pretty good lens for the price of megadap Honestly, sounds like your current Sony body is too cheap for your expectations… se40 isn’t worth a bend over backwards, 40/2.5 is better

Agree with your post and your conclusions, even though a Sony a7iii is older than the R7 (worse AF, slower, no 4k60) but still more expensive. At the end of the day you get similar performance for similar prices; but then you might want to add faster primes, wider angles -> FF; or rather tele, macro

put the camera in "M" mode, open the aperture up all the way and leave it there, there is no action sports scenario where stopping down is better, for freezing motion in action sports always shoot at 1/800th minimum, but faster is better. use autoiso, but if it gets too high you'll have to compromis

The A7iii has a lot of good features, but the autofocus isn't up to modern standards. It's a great landscape body, not a great sports body.

Don't leave Nikon for Sony, I ended up right back where I was. I ran with a Nikon D5+Sony a7iii for a decade shooting for Los Angeles Based News stations, including the LA Times, and went back to all Nikon Bodies recently. Sony cons-Subpar colors, horrible menu systems, poor tech support, and the fa

the best sports bargain in all brands is a used a9, i'd suggest finding one... set your a9 up for back-button af. one of the big problems with the a7iii is no sony real-time tracking subject selection, and of course slow sensor readout speed, so electronic shutter isn't much of an option: https://ww

Hey everyone, I want to buy a new camera. I currently have a sony A7III with a sony 200-600mm, Tamron 28-200mm and a Samyang 24mm. I was thinking about getting the sony A7RV or wait for the sony A7RVI that will be announced next month, it would depend on the specs and price but I'm open to other sug
