a7S II

lessons learned: Shoot 4K even if your final video will be 1080p. Downscaled video looks a lot sharper and also denoised. 1080 footage looks horrible on those cameras. You should have tried it. Also bitrate is not enough to handle wide shots as far as I remember. (but I'm not sure if a7iii shoots 50

My main question would be why there's 2 lenses there that are essentially doing the same thing. I'd also not bother with a gimbal as a beginner too fwiw and why 2 tripods? The 1DXii was a great camera in its day but it's really starting to show its age now If you're a beginner i'd look at something

I love my old VSCO profiles and when I upgraded from my A7iii to an A7Cii I was devastated that the profiles no longer worked... I googled around and found some people on a forum doing hex edits to the profile files to get Lightroom to recognize them as compatible... It's a pain in the ass but it wo

12MP is enough, I used the a7sii for a few years. That’s such an expensive camera though I’d probably get an a7iv (what I use currently) as my photo camera though.

I've done a few weddings with the a7sii and oh my god, I hate it. The rolling shutter is awful and the autofocus was so whack, and I was using native Sony lenses. For hobby and beginner type stuff, maybe you can make it work, down the line you can sell the body and buy a better one

This is the older one. Af is shit on it. I used it to mount canon cine lenses on my a7sii years ago.

Hey there, Z6III video shooter here. I'll preface this by saying I don't shoot a lot of video, but I make a couple of travel videos a year when I go on holiday and almost all of them contain some level of low-light/nighttime footage. I will regularly shoot up to and at 12,800 on the Z6III and be com

I think it’s nice. A7sii footage was very hard to work with back in the day

keep the a7iv for photography and more run and gun stuff. IMO 12,800 iso on sonys is overrated and used moreso as a crutch for event videographers. It is helpful for dark wedding receptions and concerts where you can’t always setup lights. But if you’re transitioning to more commercial stuff you’ll

I shoot photos and reels on my a7sii for clients and autofocus is shit. Ive learned to take more than one take to avoid this problem. (real headache on live events).It lacks 10 bit video. Slog 3 on this 8 bit camera is a lie. But I get by with Slog2. 120FPS HD is awsome when its useful. I dont use 4
