Nice review. I have grown weary of so many reviewers who feel the need to make every video a comedy sketch, to the point it overshadows any useful factual content. Yours has a nice balance of personality and info :) I am waiting for my A1 to arrive, most interested in the high ISO performance, I shoot an A7R4 as my primary camera for work, so I know the A1 will be better than that at least based on the resolution.
Thanks! Since I’m rather a practical user type than reviewer my goal is to show these cameras I’m able to test out in a real scenario, or at least something similar to real life scenario of the stuff that I do shoot. Glad you liked it! I wanted to make an ISO test for A7RIV vs A1, but hadn’t had both of these at the same time on me. I checked it vs A7RIII and have to say it’s pretty good!
Am not yet a sony shooter but having sync speed of up to 1500 in a crop mode is gold for outdoor portrait photographers like me . With a 1200w light one can conquer the ambience light. Am looking to add sony to my work system but am waiting to see what the A7 IV will be .
First time viewing one of your videos and it was wonderful; informative, entertaining, and “objective” rather than biased. I immediately subscribed to your channel after viewing, and look forward to more of you videos. (Your wife is a very good sport to help out. Seeing the Legos reminded me of all the great times spent playing with my boys and our Lego sets.) ;0)
Thanks so much Dean! Appreciate your comment and glad you liked the video. I’m new to this TH-cam space, obviously Sony fanboy with access to lot of cameras and lenses, so happy to be sharing my thoughts!
It does seem more responsive, menu is faster, and basically all the operations feel 'snappier'. Plus - I didn't mention in this video (only on previous review) that if the camera is clearing the buffer you can pretty much do everything in the menu, change settings etc, so that is pretty different from the older cameras that just needed to clear it first
After listening and watching your very thoughtful and detailed review, i would love to know if you are using the A-1 for your wedding work? Thanks. Also if you own all three cameras that you mention in the video. Thsnks so much.
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer from reviews I’ve seen of the A 7 IV’s you have made a good choice. And you also made another good choice buying the extra unit. So have you been happy with how the new A 7 IV’s are working?? I would love to know. I’m a retired wedding photographer with 30 plus years of experience. Thanks for answering me!!
Was looking at A9II vs A1, until I watched this, which has me leaning towards the A1, thank you so much for the time you took on the content...but I also had these two on the docket...I want to have dedicated cams, for two shooters at events, A on photo, B on vid...so opinions on the following, and why do you feel? A7rIV vs A1 as dedicated photo...with A7sIII as dedicated video? Or like another commenter mentioned, A9 for vid, A1 for photo?
Aperture drive is available on A9MK1 . It only works with electronic shutter and only with Sony lenses not Tamron Etc. The only time my A9 is very bad at focusing is in low light above f4 when I'm doing group shots using flash. The 17 year Canon 20D was far, far better than my A9 In this situation. The mirrorless cameras inability to use the flashes infrared beam is the one area where a DSLR is way better. From your test the A1 looks to address this with better focusing with smaller apertures
@@lauriewahlig2819 I was asking you, I don't know why the comment didn't put your@. Thank you for responding. I shoot high school sports professionally myself and am about to graduate high school, I'm going to continue shooting in college.
Have just become a subscriber after watching this video. Thanks for compiling it.I have found this really helpful and one of the more useful A1 reviews on you tube. Would also be great to see ISO/ noise comparisons for the A7R4.
Thanks so much for the video! I’m a stills portrait photographer and considering which option to buy. In regard to the difference in megapixels- how much will this impact print size? Thanks so much.
Well, I was rather expecting more practical comparison. This video was too much about the specs which can be found anywhere on the internet and people who aim at these expensive cameras usually have enough experience to tell, whether or not they need 50 megapixels or 30 FPS... I was hoping to see more of like comparing colours out of the camera, ability to set the custom buttons and stuff like that which you can't read from the specs. Well, I have had both cameras in my hands (not at the same time, and A1 very briefly) but as I use the A7 IV, I was a little disappointed that the A9 II gives the user fewer choices in terms of customization. And I think this is quite important as well, If you're going to use the camera on a daily basis.
- 30 fps is only compatible with one or two lenses - anyone who owns an a9ii, doesn't really use F16 or slower - A9ii is not half the price; in the Netherlands it's €5300 vs A1 €7300 (still 2k cheaper lol) - if video and high resolution matters, buy A1. If only sports/wildlife photography matter for you, buy an A9
So I shoot mainly indoor performance under stage lighting - usually quite poor - would the A1 be a better bet or is the performance under these conditions with the A9 2 not significantly any better and certainly not to justify paying twice as much for it. I don't shoot machine gun style but I do these days often have to shoot under LED lighting and silently especially if it's a monologue or a solo piano performance. As you have tested both cameras your opinion would be very welcome - thanks!
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer Thanks so much for your reply ! I very rarely shoot more than one/two frames in a sequence so speed is never an issue - what i really need is great high ISO performance under poor light coupled with reliable AF - can I ask you another question please - did you test the anti flicker settings? - modern LED stage lighting and electronic shutters don't mix - the dreaded banding - does the A9II eliminate this as I have read that the A1 does a much better job - but I haven't seen any conclusive evidence. If it is a case of having to use the mechanical shutter then the resulting noise can be a real problem with some artists and audiences.... I really appreciate your thoughts!
Haha! I wonder what could A9III be. I'm guessing it might be the first one from Sony that will get rid of mechanical shutter, like Nikon Z9. Time will tell!
Love the fjallraven hat. I need one. Great review and now i am still confused. I want to upgrarde the A7-iii for widlife and stills. I will wait a while for prices to settle. Thanks again.
Greetings from New Zealand (nice map in the background btw :-) What a great comparison! I own an a9II & a7RIV... I was initially going to trade them both for an a1 but I like having the option of two bodies (for back up) so I decided against it in the end. Enjoying your videos, so I've just subscribed :-) Keep up the great work you're doing. Also loved your 35 G Master review... can't wait to get one.
Hey Barry! Haha, indeed - the map that I bought in Queenstown! Love NZ, wish to come back one day. And yeah, thanks for kind words about the video. True - if you have A9 II and A7R IV you have two bodies. A1 is both of them and more, but still 1 body, so you'll need another camera either way for backup etc. That is why I'm crying inside, cause getting two A1's this year... don't think I can pull that off haha!
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer Queenstown is beautiful, as soon as this pesky global pandemic thing is over you're welcome back anytime mate :-) I'm nervous to try the a1 when they reach stores here... I suspect if I play with one I'll instantly want it haha. Good luck with the channel.
I have those two as well and agree with you, prefer the A9II with its better ISO although would love it even more if the EVF was a bit better as for me being a new glasses wearer I feel it's only an average EVF.
@@karlbratby4349 Hi Karl, since making that comment 2 months ago I changed my mind again and ended up trading both bodies anyway haha. I don't miss the a7RIV and as much as I enjoyed the a9II the a1 is just like a upgraded version of that camera that's just that little bit better in every way. And with the new compressed lossless RAW format files I can shoot 50MP with a file size that's only a little bigger than the 24MP RAWs from the a9. Win win really. I did rent an a9II to shoot a wedding recently so I got to shoot them side by side and basically the two cameras feel nearly identical in the hand... but that a1 EVF is truly glorious!!
@@waydownsouth hello. I saw your response and I figured I would ask. I am looking to upgrade. I have the A7R2. Started shooting landscapes and have moved into taking some portraits, wildlife and perched birds. I’m also thinking about getting into shooting some birds in flight. If not buying an A1, what would be a good to camera solution if keeping the budget around $4500 to $5000. I can get the A7R3a($2000), A7R4a($2600), A7IV ($2600), A9 II ($3300) and an A9 ($2400). All of the cameras prices aside from A9 and A9 II are new. Thoughts? Thanks.
Couple more questions....do you like your double strap for use during weddings? I sure hope you get a chance to compare the new 50mm 1.2 Sony coming out with the 55 1.8. I know it’ll be heavier but sure curious to see that 1.2!
Love my double strap, use the material camera swagg by moneymaker! I’m using 55/1.8 on daily basis, so if rumors about 50GM are true, I’ll be more than happy to share my comparison!
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer ,yes indeed I'm probably going for the A7S III even I am not so much into videos, my old RX1R mark 1 which I think had the sensor from the A7 II had a much better high ISO capability as my A9, I think that has to do with the BSI sensor , but not sure about that. Also other brands we don't really how much Sony sensors they are using, so Nikon, Panasonic etc are they any better?? Who knows...
What nobody seems to notice is the way bigger buffer the a9 and a9ii has over the A1. Waiting to buffer clearing is not fun at all. The A9 stills beat the A1 in this regard. Worse high iso and worse buffer makes clear to me that the A9II is much better for WILDLIFE photography
I am into Wildlife photography, no video. For me the best combo is the A9 II and the A7R4 as i need a Backup camera anyway. I don’t need 30fps for my work. Bottom line: the A1 would not give me any advantage here, I won’t upgrade.
Niestety nie jest tak kolorowo a wręcz przeciwnie . Polityka Sony to porażka . Sony A9 czyli aparat który jest przeznaczony do fotografowania w halach sportowych w których często są używane lampy sodowe czy diodowe nie ma funkcji Anti flicker . Sony dało tą funkcję A7 III a nie dało aparatowi który kosztuje 15000 zł .Sony A9 II dostał tą funkcję dopiero w aktualizacji co jak dla mnie jest skandalem . Właśnie mam za sobą takie zdjęcie przy użyciu A9 i wszystkie z poprzecznymi pasami. Nawet migawka mechaniczna nie pomaga . A więc trzeba wziąć SONY A7m3 który ma funkcję antiflicker z tym że ta funkcja zarówno w A73 jak i A9 II działa tylko na migawce mechanicznej, która w A7m3 jest bardzo głośną . I tak mając dwa aparaty marki Sony jesteśmy zdani albo na siedzienie przy kompie i ratowanie słabej jakości zdjęć albo na brak możliwości wykonania takich zdjęć w sytuacji kiedy wymagana jest cisza . . Nie wiem na ile głośna jest migawka w A9II . Mam nadzieję że jest w miarę cicha bo to by częściowo ratowało sytuację. Przypomnę żę już Canon 7Dm2 miał funkcję antiflicker i w miarę cichą migawkę mechaniczna tak samo jak Canon 5DmIV który miał również cichą migawkę mechaniczną. Uważam że brak aktualizacji w A9, która by dodawała funkcję antiflicker to skandal i traktowanie klientów jak baranów do strzyżenia z kasy. Chwalenie się się że dodano tą funkcję w aparacie za ponad 20 tys to robienie ludzi w konia .Czyli co powinienem zrobić ? Sprzedać A9 żeby kupić A9 II tylko dlatego że ma funkcję anti flicker ( która już posiada o aparat który kosztuję 1/3 ceny A9 II ) i w miarę cichą migawkę mechaniczną . To się nazywa dbać o klienta. Brawo SONY !!
Widzę ,że jak się postarasz to potrafisz stworzyć coś ciekawego. Dla polaków robisz widowisko w stylu TVP . To nie krytyka tylko taka mała refleksja....
Clearing the buffer with pictures has nothing to do with the V90 standard. V90 is only a video format standard and has nothing to do with pictures. Sorry you cant say anything about the AF system after taking some pictures of a slow moving wife. In real life the a1 is much much faster.
@8:46 look at your video you claim the a1 is faster its not you have your iso on the a9ii is at 25,600 vs 32,000 on the a1. Please do not make BS claims. That is a clear nearly one stop iso gain advantage trying to show its faster it is not.
Hey, I’m not BSing anyone. When shooting with those cameras at dark there’s noticeable performance difference for me. I might have had different iso values on recorder, but also 25600 vs 32000 is not even full stop, full stop would be 25600 vs 51200.
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer I own it and it's BS so please do not try to defend something you don't even own. So giving it more light is not a advantage? Like I said stop the BS
@@camerasutra247 think what you want to think my friend. Why would I even BS people, that’s my observation when shooting with both of these cameras and that’s it.
I understand why you did the comparison, it's content for the sake of content. But let's be real, there was zero actual reason for this, of course the A1 is going to be better by far. Thats why they built it.
If you are going to be on TH-cam, you should post a video without you wearing a hat. Because right now, you are telling the whole world you cannot be open and honest. Your biggest fear is shown in every video when we see you.
@@katielark1 You don't know what I'm talking about because you probably still have yours and you don't have to try to hide reality. Nobody wants to watch a youtuber trying to hold secrets, but the thing is not even a secret, so just come clean so we don't have to question what else you are hiding from viewers.
My brain says the A1, but my wallet says none.

Widzę ,że jak się postarasz to potrafisz stworzyć coś ciekawego. Dla polaków robisz widowisko w stylu TVP . To nie krytyka tylko taka mała refleksja....
Clearing the buffer with pictures has nothing to do with the V90 standard. V90 is only a video format standard and has nothing to do with pictures. Sorry you cant say anything about the AF system after taking some pictures of a slow moving wife. In real life the a1 is much much faster.
I find it funny how these two are being compared and there's a huge price difference.
Why are you making your poor wife run for your videos? We are going to get you some running shoes lol
Testing out 30 FPS needs sacrifices 😂
👍
If the A1 was priced as the Canon R5 they'd have a chance. So overpriced it's ridiculous!
@8:46 look at your video you claim the a1 is faster its not you have your iso on the a9ii is at 25,600 vs 32,000 on the a1. Please do not make BS claims. That is a clear nearly one stop iso gain advantage trying to show its faster it is not.
Hey, I’m not BSing anyone. When shooting with those cameras at dark there’s noticeable performance difference for me. I might have had different iso values on recorder, but also 25600 vs 32000 is not even full stop, full stop would be 25600 vs 51200.
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer I own it and it's BS so please do not try to defend something you don't even own. So giving it more light is not a advantage? Like I said stop the BS
@@camerasutra247 think what you want to think my friend. Why would I even BS people, that’s my observation when shooting with both of these cameras and that’s it.
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer your test is rigged my friend not obeservation....stay blessed.
Neither of those, get A7RIII or A7RIV.
A7S III for me!
More video less photo
I understand why you did the comparison, it's content for the sake of content. But let's be real, there was zero actual reason for this, of course the A1 is going to be better by far. Thats why they built it.
If you are going to be on TH-cam, you should post a video without you wearing a hat. Because right now, you are telling the whole world you cannot be open and honest. Your biggest fear is shown in every video when we see you.
Say whaaat?!
@@katielark1 You don't know what I'm talking about because you probably still have yours and you don't have to try to hide reality. Nobody wants to watch a youtuber trying to hold secrets, but the thing is not even a secret, so just come clean so we don't have to question what else you are hiding from viewers.
@@njrtech You would feel that way and be defensive if you are dealing with the same issue.
This hat
It’s holding secrets
