I had the A7Cii and now have the A7CR. I moved over from Nikon Z6 for the autofocus and resolution. I tried the ZF first and didn’t like the ergonomics. The Sony is not as infallible on autofocus as the hype would have you believe but the compact size is great. I miss the Nikon’s feel in the hand an

Haaa. FWIW I AF my M lenses on Sony and Nikon with the techart adapters. Works better with some lenses than others but it’s generally great. Nocti 35mm / A7CR combo works so well I let my Q343 go last week.

I have both a Sony and a Nikon Z camera. I am very much attached to both, and am therefore keeping them though it wasn’t the smartest move (economically speaking) for an enthusiast like me to invest in 2 different brands… (long story how I ended up there, but in short, I can relate to the feeling yo

Glad I saw this. Been shooting Sony forever. Ended with the A7cr and a bunch of lenses. For some reason I just didn’t click. The menu system just sucks. Even after having Sony for over a decade. It just does. It’s so complex and not that enjoyable. Decided to try out Q3 43. Been a month now. Let’s j

All the q3 did for me was to sell it so I can buy a better leica m240. Q3 is just a sony a7cr with worse autofocus, increased startup time, fixed lens, same sensor and worse battery life. So glad I got rid of it. Even image becomes jittery when focusing. Also white balance and auto exposure are off.

I am a big fan of the smart scopes. I’ve had a Vaonis Stellina for many years now. It’s fantastic, and takes far less time to set up and use than my 7” cassegrain/Sony A7CR rig. But it does have one very big downside: it takes CRAP planetary images. The telescope is the most expensive part of a sky

I have an om5 and 3 and have used or own several other MFT bodies along with most other mounts and brands. The om5 was one of my favourite bodies for size, weight and abilities for stills until I got the om3. The autofocus on the om3 is the best I have used on any body for subject tracking. I tested

I have an om3 and a7cr same body and features as a7cii. Both are weather sealed so that is not an issue. The Sony af is better except for birds where the om I find better for BIF. It has auto subject detection. Better grip. Compact primes are about the same size. Zooms and tele are not. Video will b

I debated a longtime before snagging one. I got it Saturday and the fact that I feel better about pulling this out for casual walks or commuting is already worth it to me. I get that my A7cR can get me a high resolution and give me a lot of flexibility in post, but I can’t slip that in my pocket and

Thank you — we’re very excited! And thanks for all the extra feedback! I honestly considered something like a Sony A7CII/A7CR for the awesome autofocus + video capability. But I picked one up in store and was very “meh” about. I also really don’t like EVFs. Even considered a Q, but same issue. I thi
