A7IV is quite a bit better for video. Although I am disapointed by the 4k60 crop. For 2800€ this shouldn‘t be a thing in 2022. For photography the A7III does pretty much everything just as well if you don‘t care about the resolution bump. I am happy with it and won‘t be getting a new one before the A7V comes out.
Still use an a7iii and pretty happy with the autofocus. Maybe I'm missing out on the newer autofocus and tracking, but seems spot on the eyes and most subjects. Would love to see a real world autofocus comparison between it and the a7rV with its new AI processor.
You don't know how good A7IV is until you get hands on with it. Not so much for photography but the video improvements are night and day especially the auto focus
Jack. Bought the a7iii in Feb this year. I bought it with the 24-105 lens. All was okay until a few weeks ago when problems started (too many to mention), any way took it back to WEX in Leeds from where I bought it. It was sent back to Sony for repair under warranty. Had update this week, it’s the lens that’s faulty. Sony now waiting for parts to carry out a repair, there due 25.07.22. Hoping to have all back ASAP.
I'm getting my A7 III and some prime lenses tomorrow and I have a ton of shoots booked for April so I'm SOOOO excited!!! I am switching from the 5D III so I am looking forwards to the Eye AF :) Great video! No one really talks about the LCD/EVF, and I'm really glad I came across your channel.
@@HenryPiffpaff I've been using it for about a year now. It makes my life so much better because what I mainly do is portraits. You're not going to find something as good for this used price range!! It's very reliable and a solid camera.
I love my A7III but, I bught an A7IV. 6 reasons? - Better AF settigns - ro record limit!!!! - 4K 50p - Full HDMI out , not micro HDMI - Better bulid quality - Faster and better menu system So, ok III still a good camera, but the IV is better!
Thank you for an honest opinion. I just sold my Sony a68 and moved up with the full frame a7III. I just got it and am trying to learn all I can about its capabilities and limitations. I am an amateur photographer, but have been shooting since film days. I struggled choosing between the A7RIII and the A7III, because of the reviews, and I am not sure I need that file size to burden my older computer.
Nice video, well done. One thing I think that was missing for a A7III negative is it unacceptable rate of mechanical shutter failures. Hopefully you'll or anyone will not experience this, but many have and if you do it will brick your A7III camera. You can get it repaired, but it is costly.
I have heard of this issue, however I'm not going to make it a negative particularly when it's not happened to me. Don't forget, when people complain about a broken shutter, it seems like a lot, nobody posts a forum post or joins a FB group to say "my A7III works perfectly". So sure, it seems like a lot of people have the issue, but if you compare those sold to the amount of people that get the issue, it is probably a small minitory. Still, it's definitely an issue with the camera, just not something that will happen to everyone, so thus isn't a complaint of the A7III itself.
A6700 is backlit which helps a lot for lowlight. But it is crop sensor. My only thing I’m struggling with is finding direct comparisons between the 2. I want to jump up into full frame so a7iii is close enough in price to the a6700, but the a6700 really is advanced in technology
My introduction to the full frame mirrorless camera world was with a sony a7r2. GREAT CAMERA just for photogrpahy and for video does the work, 2 weeks ago I decided to buy another camera body tu ''upgrade my gear'' and I got the a73. BROO my workflow is faster now even thoug is a camera from 2018. for the budget right now the a73 is an AMAZING option if you are starting or want another body. Now this is my main camera. I still use the a7r2 just in product shots with flashes and stuff because it has a sensor with more mpx than the a73, but the ergonomics of my new camera are way better, also the quality in video and photo are lovely. Great video dude.
I have been using Sony A7iii for 3 years now and I still love it! I am an amateur photographer and this camera with 24-105 f4 lens is my only gear I need when I want to take some photos while hiking or traveling. I fully agree with both pros and cons summarized, but it seem those pros wins as I am still not looking for a new camera :)
battery is going off a lot when u just hang around with the camera with display on, not the shots did... I did 1300 photos with my a6300 on sport event in about 45 minutes with a single battery. :D
I have the 7IV and the ONLY reason I bought it is because of SPECIFIC needs that I had that the 8-bit alpha bodies couldn't deliver on. My first was the a6300 and I'm super glad that I started there. I'm bargain hunting for a 7III right now to add to my 6400 as a B cam with great color, AF, ability to shoot long 4k clips, and image quality.
Very valid reasons, thanks for sharing! Might worth to mention that along the fact the sensor of the A7III is really excellent, images taken at high ISO and/or low light tend to get ugly magenta cast (or blotches), which, obviously, could be removed (mostly) by RAW editing. Also, white balance often got tricked under challenging light conditions, which is again, something one may correct post, as it needs extra effort. With these corrections I am happy to show my wildlife photos taken at ISO 25600 about bears or deers (on my website), so overall, the A7III is a great budget camera for challenging wildlife photography with its IQ and AF capabilities still in 2023!
I want to get into more videography and the wider grip +flip screen is very tempting but still doesn’t justify another 1k upgrade. At least it being a hobby and small side gig thing for me.
Much better AF, 33Mpxl, better EVF, etc in A7iv looks very attractive to me, but the price ... :( So I'm thinking of a rumored A7c-2 later this year. What do you think about this option?
I didn't say it wasn't a better camera, I said you'd get on fine with the a7III which will still perform perfectly for most. Not a fan of the A7c range finder style but if you like it then sure! Flip out screen is helpful!
I’ve looked at the a7C. I like the rangefinder style just fine, but there are two major reasons I’m not getting it that you may want to consider. 1-no front dial and fewer custom buttons, so there are fewer options for adjustability on the C. 2-only one card slot instead of two. Much riskier, especially on paying jobs. So it’s still a close race between the a7iii and a7iv. 😉
A7C is a fine camera. Everyone bitches about muh front dial. I rented one, put my 35mm gm lens on it and the front dial wasn’t even a though. Honestly considering it over the 3 or 4.
Yeah but you keep saying “the a7iii did so well here and there” but who knows what monster lenses you had mounted when you took those pictures 😂😂 Since we speak money… Most of us out there will get the a7iii with its kit lens (it’s silly not to, the price is just too convenient) so with the kit lenses we are not even close to the results you are showing us here.. you should mention the lenses you used in each photo
How do you think the kind of low resolution EVF on the a7 III is to work with? It's not on par at all with other cameras from this era. Even the m43 G9 has a higher (and better?) EVF from what I can tell.
..a lil bit late, but maybe it helps also. Its about the megapixels... The more megapixels on the same size of sensor the less light every pixel can collect because of its size...
Over the years I've realized the most important factors in a camera for me is Imagage quality and size. Somethings that usually goes against each other. Better image quality - > bigger camera. But the A7iii manages to keep it small while still delivering amazing image quality. This makes me so much more willing to bring my camera around. My old 6D + 24-70 lense is almost twice the weight of my new A7iii + 2 small prime lenses, and delivering sharper images and good in low light.
Thank you so much Jack for the helpful and informative review, the only thing concerns me is the EVF, is it acceptable or below the quality of the DSLRs, actually I'm going to upgrade from my DSLR and my first choice is A7III, Thank you again for your kind suggestions! God bless and good luck!
@@JackWoodhams Sorry, I was in a hurry. What I mean is, you will get that "dust" on the sensor even if you NEVER change your lens. So it isn't "dust" from the outside environment. It is actually little flakes of the shutter blades. So people talk about the A7iii as a "dust" magnet when in reality it isn't. Once I had my shutter unit replaced on one of my A7iii's I hardly ever had to clean off my sensor. And before the shutter failed, I took close up photos of the edge of the shutter blades where you could see them chewing themselves away.
Flip Screen....vlogging is kind of a thing now....focus breathing compensation is quite nice for video, the III doesn't have it.... the latest auto-focus is massive and these are just a few reasons I"d still buy the A7IV. I think saving by purchasing used lenses is less risky than buying a used body. Do you really think the video image quality is better on the A7III than the IV? Interesting. I think it looks good but isn't better in my opinion. Fuji XT4 and Panasonic Lumix? APSC? Big steps backward in auto-focus and APSC is kind of the starving artist camera.
Hi! Some good points. Vlogging although popular isn't the main reason you buy a camera like this so for photographers the flip screen might not be an issue. Focus breathing depends on lenses, some aren't that bad! I didn't say the video quality was better on the A7iii. It's definitely better on the iV however, for TH-cam etc 10 bit video like we get from the iV isn't really a requirement.
True, but here's the thing. The A7iii is the best selling camera of the last 5 years. When people complain and post on the internet that their shutter has broken, that's going to be a small minority compared to those who have had no issues at all. Because if your camera is working fine, you don't tend to post about it... 😂 The loud minority drowns out the the silent majority...
I shot my friend's wedding with his Sony A7 III, it sucked really bad. Autofocus is slow, the buffer is small, and low light focus is a nightmare. This camera was NOT ready for primetime. Buy the AIV instead. I missed so many shots and got very frustrated with it. Never buy this camera unless you are shooting landscape. This camera is a wash. You are welcome, and have a nice day.
User error. If a camera has limitations you work around them. Most videographers would use manual focus unless using a gimbal where they can't touch the camera. Using autofocus for video at a wedding is where you went wrong - because you're relying purely on the cameras "brain" to get the right things in focus. For video if you're trying to do nice panning shots, dolly shots etc autofocus will always mess up.
0:56 video is the best hands down, as for image quality, it stands no chance against Pentax k1 (in the same price range). In fact, no FF camera on planet earth can compete with k1 in dynamic range.
@@JackWoodhams which means you do not know much about pentax (many don't actually). I did buy into pentax, and here's why th-cam.com/video/tDH7NUE5YiM/w-d-xo.html and they have more than 200 lenses by the way.
