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

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

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

What a rodeo! Just gotta love how this hobby takes us for a ride. And the grass is always greener on the other side! I think the M’s MF makes it all the more addictive because the feeling of nailing focus is just *chefs kiss. Sometimes have that feel of “I nailed it? In that lighting? Fuyoh!” Hahaha

I have S9 and A7CR. I am really not seeing any point of this. You are just arguing now you can apply LUTs and is "WAY Better" because you don't need to do as much post work. granted! that's a plus... but that you are also assuming no one else knows how to use LUTs on a sony footage. which is like..

The feather in Sonys cap for travel cameras is the A7Cr. With that much resolution you can set a fn button to switch to APSC mode effectively making each prime a dual focal length. With two compact primes 24mm 2.8G and 55mm 1.8 Zeiss you get a 24mm, 36mm, 55mm and 82.5. I'm with you on sonys being g
