![]() The 425 autofocus points is better than most mirrorless cameras, and it also features an AF with face detection.Ĭons: 425 auto-focus points is absolutely great, but it provides less coverage than the Sony a7 iii, and the higher megapixel count takes away some of the low light capabilities and shallow depth of field accomplished by the a7 iii. Sony stripped the AA filter off of the a7R iii, and this is a missing feature that a lot of photographers were looking forward to. ![]() It captures absolutely fantastic video, and improved on many of the features from the earlier models, but the a7R iii is more designed for those who want to get high resolution photography, time lapse capability, and some great video as a cherry on top. Pros: The Sony a7R iii is the newest hybrid video/still camera, and that is sort of how you have to look at it. You can always take the money you save and put it toward an adapter as well as a semi-serious set of cine lenses (say that 5x fast). Many photographers and filmmakers take issue with Sony when it comes to lenses, and they aren’t wrong, but the price and capabilities of this camera way outweigh any lens limitation that Sony may have. The LCD screen isn’t as good as the a7r iii, but the battery lasts longer because of that so. That is crazy good pricing.Ĭons: Unfortunately there's a 1.2x crop in 4K when at 30fps. This camera could have been $3000, and we still would have put it at the top of the list. ![]() It also comes in at $2000, which is cheaper than the brand new Nikon Z6 and Z7, the brand new Canon EOS R, and the very unique Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5s. Combine with a lens that has its own internal stabilization, and a properly balanced gimbal to achieve unbelievable results. The a7 iii has the same great internal stabilization feature. It is funny to think that we live in a world where a lower megapixel count is the exciting feature between cameras, but that is the paradoxical nature of digital video, and Sony understands that providing these options is helpful to their brand and their filmmaking customers. ![]() ![]() Same lock-on AF with face detection, and improved battery life as the a7R iii, and it can use that battery life more efficiently because the megapixel count on the sensor is nearly half. The 693 auto focus points comes in at the top of its class. Sony took everything that makes a good mirrorless video camera and got it as close to perfection as possible. Pros: The Sony a7 iii is the Cadillac of mirrorless cameras as far as video is concerned. ![]()
