This is the part I strongly disagree with. The difference is keeper rate and expectations. With a modern higher end mirrorless like Sony a7v Nikon Z6III or something, even a beginner can get like a 40% keeper rate, and a moderately skilled amateur can get into like 70% rate. But if you're shooting a

Not including a Sony option in this is ridiculous. An A7V, A1II, or A9III all could be argued are top of the list. I would argue that the A9III honestly is capable of things for weddings that no other body even is. With a true global shutter and crazy sync speeds it can do things you simply can't ac

I'm definitely not as knowledgeable as many others in this sub for video, but to answer some of your questions: Shutter angle: Yes, Lumix offers this setting, I believe since the S1H at minimum. IBIS: it's not even close in video. In photography, I'd say there is at most a small gap, but video is no

dann würde ich (weil du keinen preis benannt hast) einfach die sony a7V empfehlen + das sony 200-600mm (oder wenn du wirklich dick Asche hast dann das 400/2.8 oder 600/4 von sony)

Honestly the X-H2S is a great camera and in some ways has a better image/video specs than either Sony (open gate, 6K, ProRes or high data rate H265, great color). The biggest improvement you’ll notice is autofocus (Fuji AF is terrible) but the lenses are bigger and more expensive. If you do get a So

I would go with a stacked sensor for wildlife. Blackout free shooting is a game changer. I purchased the OM-1ii on the a7v release date as a Sony shooter for wildlife and have no regrets. For Nikon you either get the Z8, or nothing.

Which makes total sense given Sony has an explicitly dedicated line of video products now. The FX3 predated the A7IV by a few months but still at the time the FX/ZV line felt less established. They A7V brings their mid range photo camera up to near top specs for photo (Speed and AF near the A1II) an

I own FX3, ZV-E1, A7iv and the new A7v. Damn. Leave some for the rest of us! After some testings and a few field gigs, the A7v certainly has the better sony Autofocuse system The ZV-E1 has the AI autofocus. Are you saying the A7V is noticeably better again? How’s it better if so? and just like most

I own FX3, ZV-E1, A7iv and the new A7v. After some testings and a few field gigs, the A7v certainly has the better sony Autofocuse system and better in-body stabilizer, and sharper in-camera 4k video codec than FX3 and ZV-E1. Low light is shockingly as good as FX3 and ZV-E1 up to ISO 12800... ZV-E1
