Is this why the a7r4 does a full format, but the a74 does a quick format? Did Sony realize that a full format is not necessary and dangerous in these situations?

Pro wedding shooter here. My weddings are on full frame Sony's (A7r4 and A9ii). My personal stuff I carry a Fuji x-e5. I've shot low light ceremonies where I cannot use flash on the Sony's and I've shot low light on the x-e5 such as Thanksgiving. With really bad light, both crop and full frame look

Inevitability the conversation will come around to (be dominated by) the eternally boring M43 vs FF sensor. This is the wrong path to go down for you, IMO. There are as many advantages to M43 as there are for FF and ditto disadvantages. Firstly I'm going to quote your specific genres that you shoot

I had the 1DX (mark1) and honestly, shopting sports with that brick felt effortless. Most shots were good and usability wise it's the best camera i've had. I moved to Sony a7iii and a7riv which are nice but for sports they're both kinda meh. Sure they produce good images but aren't as effortless to

It depends on what you are going to be shooting. It is disappointing how many people show up to this discussion, though, and pretend that cropping doesn't exist or isn't useful. I shoot a Sony a7r4, which is 61 MP. Having all those MP has been a huge benefit to me on many occasions. - sometimes, my

I think I will sell my Sony A7rIV and lenses for this. Since I don’t do paid jobs anymore, the Sony became a dust collector. Maybe I will wait for a Fuji X-Pro 4 but who knows when it will be released. Ricoh GR3 is my most used camera for over three years. Monochrome is a thing I that I’d like to di

Professional underwater photographer of 12+ years here. Bringing that Sony A7R4 underwater is not going to be cheap no matter what you do. You could try finding a used underwater housing for it, but even then - like buying a used car - I myself would never buy used until it gets serviced to replace

Yep, I can vouch having used a Sony a7r4 for a while, it was not even close.

I started shooting back in 1999, long before mirrorless was a thing. My roots were in Canon SLRs and later high-end DSLRs, and I shot pretty much everything over the years. Sports, landscapes, portraits, studio work. I was using serious bodies at the time like the Canon EOS 3 and later EOS-1D, 5D se
