You have to be blind to not see the Sony/FF propaganda online, if you on YouTube 95% of photography content revolves around Sony/Canon/FF and newbies to be hobby basically think mirrorless camera = Sony because they get brainwashed so much when in reality Olympus and Panasonic mop the floor with Son

Short answer: generally, yes, Nikon's latest generation of cameras is going to be better than any Sony APS-C body at AF. Long answer: about 5 years ago AF in mirrorless made a generational leap in performance, the first since we got PDAF on-sensor with the Nikon V1/J1, and saw significant improvemen

I started with Nikon d5100 back in 2015. Later, I moved to the mirrorless due to the size and third party lense availability of Sony. However, Sony doesn’t offer everything in one body, except for the A1. But for the kind of work I do, it felt like an expensive setup to hold on to. I got a great dea

I shoot primarily birds/wildlife and I have used all of Sony's modern bodies a lot in the field. I do some instruction and I have a good relationship with my LCS so I end up spending a lot of time behind a wide variety of gear in real world scenarios.

I’ve created 100s of lacrosse recruiting videos over the last 10 years and I always shoot with a video cam … and I have a Sony A1 ii. My game camera is a Sony PXW Z200. You need remote zoom and at least 18X optical zoom. Yo

Thanks for the reply. Over time I have rented the R3, R5, R6,and R6II, along with the RF 100-500. The first R5 and R6 underwhelmed me, but that was at a time when Canon was still struggling with firmware issues that were finally gone with the R3 and R6II. Their weakness (except for the R5) for me wa

1: I believe that in general, Nikon tends to give the best bang for buck; but this is nuanced and heavily dependent on specifics. (Example): the Z8 is probably a better value for most things than a Canon R5ii or Sony A1. Nikon tends to put all their tech in all of their cameras; and Canon tends to o

SONY CAMERAS. Looking to purchase a Sony mirrorless. Primary shooting will be landscape/astro (I live in Hawaii) Looking for a professional grade camera. I am going with Sony as they have a military discount and feel its worth supporting them if they are offering that for me. I hear Sony can have ro
