Alpha 1 II

I use the Sony A7C. Dynamic range at base ISO of course it's better, but with difficult conditions that are common in wildlife photography, I haven't found the difference to be that huge at high ISO especially with software like DXO and Lr ai denoise. I consistently shoot at 12800 on the OM-1II and

For sure. But that kind of gets at why I want to switch. On Sony, to get more than 10 fps, you need to get an A1 or an A9. An A9 III is over $5000 used, and with the A9 line, you only get 24MP. The A1 is $3700 used and the A1 II is well over $6000. You can get the Z8 for $2700 used, which is the cur

You need better skill, gear, and flash before you offer to shoot a wedding by yourself. I'm not saying a brand new Sony A1 II but at least a used pro model like a 5D Mark III and whichever 70-200mm f/2.8 you can afford. And flash!

Canon freezes up when the buffer is full, Nikon lac

Use your phone, few months isn’t enough to learn. You won’t get extremely good results in your upcoming trip even with a sony a1ii. Your phone will make better photographs initially. Now if you want to learn photography with a camera, get yourself a used sony a6400 with a suitable prime lens from a

Looking at the photos, you'll need more than just a camera, you'll need proper lights. Otherwise for the camera you can pick anything from the major brands, Nikon Z9, Canon R1, Sony A1II, they're all fairly similar, especially for portraits where you don't really need such a high end camera. A Canon

A1 II is an incredible camera and nobody is disputing that. It's the best AF system ever built and 50mp is not bad. But it doesn't solve the specific problems we're working around in other places. The core issue for me is SOOC color science. Sony's color rendering is accurate flushed out, flat, stra
