a9 II

I made a similar post recently and was told used Sony A9 or A9ii would be the best options, but that was photography only. Both A9’s have a stacked sensor which is unique to the flagship models so it’s really good for action shots and high fps. I don’t believe they are the greatest for video though.

I've used both and I think the a9ii has amazing AF if that's your main concern. I like some other things better like menus and ergonomics and actually using buttons and moving focus points with the r6ii, but I think the Sony just has fantastic af. This is coming from someone who has used canon more

Sony a9ii .. cos it gives you a wider lens choice from third party like Sigma and Tamron on a limited budget. a9ii is still a very capable camera for what you intend to do.

A Sony a7iii would be a great camera to start on. Pair it with a 24-70 2.8 and you'll be set for CrossFit classes and local throw downs. You'll need a longer lens for bigger comps because you won't be on the floor unless you get media credentials, but the 24-70 is more than enough for everything els

Sony Alpha 7R V. But I already have it. So, the FX3A or some other camera for filming. Or maybe the Sony Alpha 9 II, which should also be good for filming (4k120p) and would also be interesting for me for some wildlife photography.

The original SL’s autofocus is not that good, I’d only get it for adapting m glass. Personally I wouldnt use the dlux for paid gigs as well, it’s a good camera for edc but I personally went with a GR. Also consider a Leica q/q2. Go with an older dlux if you want that form factor for daily use. Keep

Over the past 5 years, I’ve gone from a pure photographer, to mainly videographer - with Sony kit. Full time freelance doing events (fitness and wedding), portraits/headshots, social media content, corporate talking head interviews/testimonials etc So have also been on a neverending quest to find th

I have used the A9/A9II some as rentals. Personally I don't think the Z5II will be a much of an upgrade to your A9. The Z5II's electronic shutter will be to slow for hummingbirds and any wing movement. You would need to shoot with the mechanical shutter at 11fps to not have the "rolling shutter" eff

The most common mistake camera buyers make is to spend more than 75% of their budget on the camera body and then compromise on lenses. If your lens only opens up to f4 either you go to a slower shutter speed which is worse at freezing motion or you crank the ISO which lowers image quality. It is wor

Fuji are known for having not that great AF-C I would rather look at either 2nd hand mirorless with stacked sensor (stacked sensor allows for more frequent AF sampling which is massive advantage when target is changing speed, and faster fps) Sony a9 / a9ii (a9 would be cheapest allowing to spend mor
