The perfect camera would have Canon colors, Fujifilm body, Canon menu system, Sony sensor, Sony eye af, Sony video, Canon dual pixel af and Nikon's red stripe on the grip.
Woah, that would end the world! haha
And Canon L ring on the lenses 👍
Can't forget that!
Sony don't have 4k 60fps like the Canon 1dx tho.
amen to that
Let me start off by saying I have never tried any of the two cameras. From the reviews I've watched though I've come to the conclusion that they are both great cameras and it's mostly a matter of which one suits someone the best. For example what do I need the eye af for if I'm in landscape or architectural photography? So let's just say that your review is addressed only to portrait/wedding photographers. What I didn't like about your video is the lack of objectivity which was obvious since the first five minutes. At 4:10 you say you were surprised the Canon did well, at 8:00 the Canon does a pretty good job (again) and in general you have nothing to blame the Canon for but the Sony always wins. Come on! Admit that it's just your favourite and it would be the winner anyway! :D To get serious though: what about the buffer size? You took a series of photos and then… waited. Seriously? What if you were shooting a wedding? At 8:52 you stop your burst shoot on the Sony and at 9:15 you're obviously STILL waiting to see them. I heard no comment about that one. In general you did a nice job. Try to look more objective in the future. Cheers!
When your model started playing with her hair in the coffee shop window my heart sank 😭
Awesome video man. I think I’m gonna pick up the Sony and possibly sell my 5D4
Canon has live view - and in the Live View uses a different focus system called Dual Pixel Focus which is not used when not in Live View. It will put "the box" around her head like the Sony, and you look at the LCD screen like the Sony. I was curious why you used on sensor focus on the one camera and didn't do the same for the other camera. It is the DPF that is like magic, and I think the Sony is approaching or even surpassing the DPF now. It would have been cool to see that in comparing the two.
PeterGregg Yea if youre going to do a review you need to do your research and even more so actually use the camera enough to be mediocre with it. I still enjoyed the photography though.
I agree with you. I 've just tested my 5dmark iv , in live view , AI servo on , Facial+tracking enable, I can feel similar in sony's AF system.
So, the canon 5d mark 4 has a "hided" or "secret" eye focus?? Which is working with f1.2 or f1.4 as well as the sony?
I thought the same. Not an accurate comparison. Was this by choice or by lack of understanding the 5D Mk IV's features? It makes you question the accuracy of the review.
What are you talking about? I thought Canon focus through viewfinder is much better due to dedicated separate AF module or am I wrong?
I am really happy to own a 5D4. I really love the images Canon produces.
Coming from a Sony user... It saddens me to say this but Canon's colors and rendition are hands down miles better.
I was canon then switched to sony a7riii. But the colors suck, really hard to edit and aim the style I used to have with my mark3. Have been thinking about going back to canon mark 4!.. Whats ur opinion?
Yeah, but only if camera brands started stealing from each other, we'd have the perfect camera and a crap load of haters
Canon glass is awesome! Even Sony users love them!
Why do you do not use the Liveview on the Canon? For a fair compairson test OVF vs. EVF... or Liveview vs. Liveview.
Thank you - this was exactly the video I've been waiting for to help me decide between these two cameras.
Hi Greg! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you for your video! I was hesitating between 2 cameras and your video confirmed me to choose the sony a7r3 without regret! So I suscribe to your channel
Thanks for the subscribe! I'll be posting more videos soon!
Like for Amanda!
I recently sold my Sony stuff and went back to Canon with 5DMIV. For me ergonomics and color science won the battle for Canon. No more struggles in post to fix those weird tints in the skin. I will miss the eye AF though but not a huge deal since I'm very comfortable shooting DSLRs.
DarkRami actually i was also going back to canon just for color science but this can be fixed within camera just understanding right white balance and adjusting it. Picture look exert same with (a-b:0 g-m:g1). It work. Sony give really natural color. But definitely we are using canon skin tone.
Well shot, good comparison if not for the fact that the live view of the 5D was not tested. The live view on the 5DIV is leaps and bounds better than the previous model, has face detect and dual pixel AF which is very good and more directly comparable to the Sony. You mentioned that the 5D does not have that abilty but it does, would be worth it to check it out.
Thanks for the Reply Luvnish! At the time of this video I was not aware of that functionality! I am aware of the amazing capability of the Dual Pixel AF and face detect, but had only thought it was available through video. From the many comments on here I have learned that now lol. But I thank you also for making me aware!
No problem at all. I have been shooting 5DIV for the past year and recently got the A7RIII, and while I'm still getting accustomed to the Sony I find the Canon live view to be holding it's own, more testing needs to be done of course. Happy shooting!
Remember to hit the like button y'all and show Amanda that she IS a great model!
I tried to hit it twice...fail lol.
I appreciate that you tried! haha!
Wow, thanks Omar! I really appreciate your support! What a great comment! Thanks Omar!
Amanda is a VERY VERY beautiful girl, but that was much more obvious with the Canon ... sorry. I suspect Sony has some colour blind people in their R&D departments, maybe they should investigate that :P
yeah I just don't understand why it's so hard to perfect that!
LOVELOVELOVE & learned a lot! Youre the best Allen!! & Amanda :*
Aww Jamie ur da bestest! I want to do a video with you too!
I gotz you!
I want to like the Sony sooo bad, but I just like the photos that come out of the Canon way more. I just do.
Is there any chance you could make some sample raw files from both cameras from this shoot available so we can play with them in Lightroom?
I think they are both great but there is something that looks richer with the canon. The sony is extremely sharp and accurate but the canon feels like a rich memory. Might sound crazy but I just feel more with Canon's color science.
I've truly been in a debate on these 2 exact camera's lol. I've watched so many videos on the 2 and I still cant decide for a while now. I just cant seem to make up my mind, Sony is truly making a beast of a camera, but I just don't know if the switch is worth it. Canon colors are just out right amazing and the mark IV does show improvement with its Dynamic Range that I have been looking for and canon ergonomics and menus are just so simple and easy to use. It's a constant battle between the 2 I just don't know what to do. Great video I was about to ask about what adapter you used, but I saw that you stated to someone else its the sigma mc-11 adapter and quite surprised on how well it was working for you and that made it a little bit more intriguing to switch over instead of going with the metabones which cost more . Did you have to update it or anything. Love the video thanks for sharing I will be fighting myself on this and I'm sure there will be more cameras by the time I decide lol. Sorry for the long message you have a new sub.
Sure thing! It's the Sigma MC-11 Adapter a.co/e0NCDWb
Silent778 get a second a7iii body and dnt sell ur mrkiv. Canon’s color is still unmatched.
Silent778 both are good tools, neither will make you a better photographer.
Great job Amanda! You made both camera look amazing!
WE DID IT Y'ALL!!! WE HIT 500 LIKES!!!! AMANDA YOU WERE WRONG! YOU ARE A TOP MODEL! VIEWERS AGREE!!!!
Great video. Just got the A7RIII and I love it. Switched from Canon too. Quick question, what gloves are you using?
Hi Abdul! Glad you love your A7! And yeah I am using Burton Insulated Snowboard gloves!
Got so much canon and sigma canon mount glass.. got a 5d mk iv and want to buy a second body but no more glass for now.. What would you suggest? Go for the sony A7RIII or another 5d mk iv as a second body?
Hi Colin! I think that if you are primarily wanting a second body for professional business work, then def get a second canon body for easier work flow. If you were wanting a second body more for shooting a different style of work like me, then invest in the Sony. Hope that helps!
wow finally a video that shows this battle!
Just shows you that once you use big lenses and adapters, the advantage of "small" size of mirrorless goes away very quickly. In fact, it becomes much harder to use due to lens/body size-weight imbalance and smaller grip. It's also regrettable that Sony could not keep the original small size of A7r Mk I or even go smaller for portable use.
Very true..I hate using the Sony with my 70-200 balance is WAY off, even the 24-70 is off balance.
Great comparison, I'm wondering though what color profile you used on a6500 as skin tones does look awesome especially at the end while shooting through the glass..love my a7riii
Great vid, Thanks very helpful, Well done Amanda 👍
Glad you liked the video Graeme! Thanks for the Sub!
On the first series of shots, Canon colors and feel are better, in my opinion. Also, on that garage door or whatever it is on the back of the alley, the Sony is blown out, overexposed, in Canon shots you have details over there. Check them up
Adrian Pocea that is what I thought too. Glad u noticed it too
if you flip the phase on one of the mics, you wont get that weird phasing issue in the audio everytime you stand next to amanda and talk.
Interesting comparison, both cameras performed well but the A7rIII definitely performed better. Amanda has a perfect girl next door wholesome look and poses very well with little input. Well done Amanda.
If I could like this comment a thousand times I would, what a great observation!!! Thanks Carl!
You really need to put some Sony glass on the A7RIII to see it sing. Nothing like native glass to see the true potential of the camera. You don't need expensive GM glass either; the FE 85mm f/1.8 is a cheap, really sharp portrait lens. You are really asking Usain Bolt to run the 100m with dancing shoes when you use adapted glass, in my opinion.
Thanks Binnu! Yes I do actually plan on getting the 85 f/1.8!!! Just trying to find the right moment to purchase!
Usain can still out run me with dancing shoes and me with running shoes.
Nice work. Production value is great and the photos are good quality images. I have seen equal videos to yours and many of them have 30k subscribers. You're on your way! And of course... Amanda Rocks! Perfect girl next door! Great model and very natural in front of the camera.
Thanks Lorenzo! Your kindness and support helps me keep going! Hope to see you around the tube!
THANK YOU for the comparison... this is exactly what I was looking to review. Your right, she is an amazing model =0)
Enjoyed the video. I hope you get to the 500 likes! One thing though, at 4:19 the Canon 5D4 has Live View autofocus, which actually tracks faces better than Sony. I'm sure you've heard of the amazing Canon DPAF that everyone talks about? Live View is the only way to use it. It shoots up to 6.5fps in burst mode while tracking the face. Canon calls it Face Tracking or L-Tracking. Through the viewfinder you are relying on another autofocus technology which is faster but maybe just a little less accurate. It doesn't have eye autofocus like the Sony although I've never heard anyone every say they used the Face Tracking and it wasn't getting the eyes in focus. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to more videos.
Hi Michael thanks for the comment! I did not know that the you could take photos while in live view mode with the face tracking feature! I am aware that Canon's DPAF is unmatched especially in video. I will have to try out the 6.5fps in burst mode while in live view! Thanks for the info and thanks for watching Michael! Looking forward to future comments!
Yeah, it's a mystery why no one talks about it. It works really well, but SLR users are kinda viewfinder snobs, even though they all say that Live View focus is more accurate than the viewfinder focus when using a lens wide open. If you want to test it, you have to enable L+Tracking (top left hand corner of QMenu), and also Servo (right under L+Tracking).
That's awesome! Thanks Michael I'm gonna test it out tonight!
hahahha
and what are the results?
great vid... great camera.... great model !!! :)
Please make a comparison video on Nikon Z5 vs Sony a7mark3. This video covered all the aspects of photo shooting in a very organised manner. That's what made me happy. Wish that you keep my request. Thanks from India.
Was wondering which Canon lenses you were shooting with? In particular, the coffee-shop scene. Thank!
Hey there! I was shooting with the Canon 50mm 1.2L mounted on the Sigma MC-11 Adapter.
seems like the Canon pics came out sharper and more contrasty... I'm struggling on which camera to buy, CANON looks too good tho, even with out the Eye AF
the body, build quality, the electronic reliability the lens mount, the ergonomics is no DOUBT the Canon. I have both(besides other models of both brands), and I like the Sony large files, and color doesn't bother me so much, but using the camera on Sony after 5 years has been Horrible! Its more of an electronic device and then a camera, although VERY WELL done..but it is not a photographer vision of a camera. Just holding the 2 will tell you right off the bat which you want to hold and use. BUT, mirrorless is a serious and pivotal advantage. If I had the extra need for a brand new camera, ZERO doubt I would buy the R5 Canon
Amanda is definitely awesome model. She poses so gooooddddd
Yes! She is one of the best!
Amanda obviously has all it takes... beauty, talent, skills. Then she's smart, and understand or anticipate requests.
So... yes... great model.
PS : and probably great person(ality) too.
Good job. Amanda you are very attractive. Loving my new A7R3 !
Thanks Gerald! Glad ur loving your A7R3!
Lol, I actually had a section of that,that I filmed, but I didn't put it in! Thought it was too long of a section. I'll try to implement in my next video! Thanks for your forgiveness!
It's amazing, I can shoot at ISO 1000 with ease and focusing has no issues.
I knew the outcome with just 5 mins into the video. You gave it away in the way you spoke about the Sony and that you were almost like a kid in love! I also thought it was rather funny when you said the Sony shoots at 10fps and you then said you probably took 100 photos in a couple of seconds :-)
Hi Kit! Haha I was giddy like school kid! And yeah whenever I watch that part I literally tell my self "yeah that wasn't quite 10 seconds, no way that was close to 100 shots, maybe 50 lol! Thanks for the comment! Like and sub if you like and haven't already!
What type of adapter was used on the canon lens to the Sony cam?
Two questions... First, why didn't you use the 5D's Live View option in order to take advantage of Canon's Dual Pixel AF... And second, why spray and pray so much for simple portrait shoots? All that does is fill your hard drive with captures you will never need. Thanks for the video! Congrats on being one of the first on TH-cam to actually compare these two cameras!
Hi Scott! I had just purchased the Canon 5D Mark IV prior after upgrading from the Mark III and wasn't aware of the Live View autofocus photo functionality. Another viewer commented and had made me aware. And the reason why the fast fps is essential for certain portrait photography shoots these days is that there are moments during a portrait/fashion shoot that are so quick that taking advantage of spraying and praying really is great. It's not necessary if the model is standing still for a portrait, but when you ask them to move, every shot counts even when you only need one. Hope that gives you some insight in my style of photography! Definitely check out my instagram @allennopphoto!
Digital Noise hey thanks for the reply! That makes total sense, thanks for putting together the vid!
Whats wrong with the a7riii's recovery of the blown out highlights at 15:50? From the example given, seems a lot less forgiving then the 5d mark iv.
That was actually my mistake Clayton, I highly over exposed for that shot! But with the circumstances, it was still usable!
Digital Noise hmmm so you over exposed the a7riii shot beyond what you did with the 5d mark iv? Because to my eyes there is something off with how your model's complexion became with the a7riii. Like the gradient between the highlights and midtones were lost some how.
That could be Sony's Color Science, its just horrible Compared to Canon lol
Is that the MC-11 adapter you're using for the Sony?
Yes it is!
hey good stuff man! nice content great photos and practical information, keep it up (for our sake ;))
Thanks Max! I'll definitely keep it up! Thanks for watching!
I subscribed - I wanted to know if you used 2 zoom H1 and I mean one for you and one for the model - because I think you didn't use a radio conection mic but you made the audio in post editing I mean taking the audio file from the Zoom H1 replacing the audio of the video with the zoom H1 audio file so I guess you have used 2 Zoom H1 - and where you placed the 2 zoom H1 - may be in the back pockets of the trousers of each one of you ? - I'm very curious to know how you did to get such good sound for both your voice and the model's voice - and if you'll do a tutorial on how you solved this audio aspect so both I and many others we will be very grateful . Great job and for this reason I subscribed .
Hey Tony! I did use 2 Zoom H1's! I had them placed in our back pockets for both me and the model. And I synced the audio in post!
Love Canon...Amanda is gorgeous BTW!
Good job! You have a new subscriber! I would like to see more videos with that A7riii 😀
Thanks for the Sub Toma! I will try to put out one once a week!
and with amanda pls
I’m considering this Sony and have a ton of L and Art glass, a little concerned about which adaptor? another review the sigma was not as good as the metabones ? As detail was lost in the corners. The MC11 also caused the camera to freeze in live view, have you had any difficulties or experience with the metabones MkV ... excellent review though ... well worth a subscribe
Hi Graeme! I have colleagues that have the metabones, and it may be sharper in the corners, I think the sigma in terms of functionality may be a bit lower than the metabones, but not by much. For what I paid for for the sigma and the experience i've had with my type of shooting for portraits, it's been a blast, but for a paid shoot like a wedding, or event, I would be a little cautious! Hope that helps and thanks for the subscribe!
Digital Noise thanks for getting back, keep doing what your doing I’m sure you’ll build a large following
Just liking because of Amanda
Thanks for the like!
Very nice video . I like a7r iii.
Thanks Ravindra! It surely is awesome!
have you test the sony in lowlight with the sigma adapter? specially if you are going to shoot wedding with canon glass?
What EF to FE adaptor are you using? Seems like the autofocus is as good as Canon
Great review and comparison..thumbs up!
Thank for a very nice Video, are you planing to switch your Sony A6500 to A7riii for video shooting or not?
Thank you Pitou! For my vlogs and shooting, i still plan on using my A6500 because of the convenience. Unless of course I have a shoot that requires the power of the A7RIII! Btw are you Khmer? If so, So am I!
Hi Allen. How did you do the moving focus points in Canon Camera? Is the view from viewfinder? what camera setting is required?
Great review
Nice video. Is that a Metabones IV adapter on the a7R3?
Love the vids! Ill be buying a7riii. Any tips on editing portraits on Lr or Ps to brighten up the subject or background individually without brightening both?
You have to select the selective paint tool and paint over the subject you want brighter. Then you can edit that selective paint individually
@@joshlevy4199 ty!
One question if possible can you do a video with the metabones V adapter? Thanks.
If I can get my hands on one I will! Thanks for the video suggestion!
Thanks for your quick reply. I fully understand that you're paying for these items out of your own pocket so if you can't that's ok. I have 10 Canon L glass in my collection and I can't see selling them off right now if they can work with my shooting style. Yes of course will I eventually start implementing Sony glass to my collection.
I completely understand Eddie! I'm in the exact same boat! I think keeping your best glass and selling the not so used ones for Sony glass would be the best investment, but in due time!
Amanda is a great model.
I'm happy you agree James!
Great review, I enjoyed your review. Thank you.
You would likely have even better focusing if you use one of Sony's native FE lenses (one of the pro models, preferrably).
good job.which adapt did you used on this video?
THIS is one of my favorit test , keep it Up !!! but what about the weight of the sony A7r3 + 50mm f1.2 , can you really feel the difference with 5D4 ?
Amanda's shoes are killer
Great video! but I have a random question now... where did you get the gloves? LOL I like 'em
Hi Clickr! They are Burton Insulation gloves! Got them at the local snowboard shop during my trip to snowshoe mountain! They are super comfortable and warm!
great one... 100% enjoyable!
Good video again. Not sure why you didn’t use the dpaf on the back screen with the face detection on the canon against the Sony.
Hey Bro nice review! I am just wondering if my canon lens will work just fine in a sony body? I am thinking to get a second body and considering the aiii. Also, I can tell that sony’s af is superb compre to canon markiv but canons picture quality is superior. Lastly are you able to date amanda? F not what are u you waiting for ☺️ she is so gorgeous. what is is her instgram account?
Hey nel son! Thanks for the comment! To answer your question, yes your canon lenses will work, as long as you pick an adapter for it like the Sigma MC-11 or Metabones IV or V. And unfortunately another lucky guy is seeing Amanda. You can check her out on my instagram @allennopphoto be sure to follow, like and subscribe!
Maybe I missed it but which lens systems did you use for each?
Yasssss!😍😍😍
Gotta ask you to do a video soon :)
what do you think of colors/skin tones of a7riii vs canon 5d mark iv?
Hi Mike! I really feel that the skin tones on the 5D Mark IV are more realistic and close to what we see in the real world, of course that is just right out of the camera when viewing them. But like I said in the video, it can be changed in post. I just wouldn't feel comfortable showing any clients a comparison of the two on the back displays of both cameras as i'm sure they would prefer their look on the Canon rather than the Sony!
Thanks for the reply! Manny did a video a while back comparing the canon to the a7rii to my eye appeared the canon skin tones were better and in some cases still better even after changes in post. I was trying to grasp how much/if any improvement in color there was over the a7rii. I have the mark iv and thinking about getting a7riii
which setting did you have it on the canon to have it focus on her face (through the view finder)???
Great video! Do you think you could provide us with a raw file from that shoot from each camera? To see how the skintones and colours react. Would be amazing!
Ummm do you have a link to the raw photos? Those “thru the window” shots from the Sony don’t have that look that the Canon/Nikon does.
Im subscribed...just because of the fun you both had in shooting and for well explained and demonstrated the diferences...next time dont keep her in the cold ;)
Haha thanks for subscribing! Can't wait to have her model again when it gets warmer!
Great comparison. 👍🏾
Glad you like the video Phelix!
Okay, a "like" for Amanda, and it's not a pity "like" at all!
At the risk of waking the Canon haters, which are legion, god bless 'em, regarding the tracking, you weren't comparing apples-to-apples. On the Canon the setting you were using was the "Auto Selection" - phase detection with the mirror down - a setting I never use except when out on the prowl for fowl. It's fast, but not for tracking. If tracking is important, to use the Dual Pixel Auto Focus, you would need to go to "Live View" with the Canon and select "face + tracking". Then the discussion becomes the likely disadvantage of having to use an LCD screen vs. an EVF, but at least the actual focusing systems would be being compared.
Great video I'm loving that A7RIII and of course Amanda too.
Thanks Eddie! They are both exceptionally fantastic!
You're welcome
which sharper between them? need advice please thank you ;)
Is it possible to download the RAW? I don't know what kind of camera to get, the 5d iv or the Sony A7III.
Thank you very much for the answer now already
Did live mode not exist on the canon at the time of this “comparison”??
LOL, good point, and I think the screen allows for touch focus...maybe not , but Live mode would have been a thought.
great review, your videos are enjoyable, so get that a7riii now.
Thanks Martin! If you were thinking about purchasing one, or making a switch from Canon, from my experiences, I've had nothing but positive results, so I would say it'd be a great investment!
ive had mine 4 weeks now, canon stuff is looking at me on the shelf like whats going on.
Haha, that's awesome! I'm glad you are enjoying yours as well me for mine!!!
I've rented the sony A7III to shoot a wedding but for some reason I wasn't happy about it. I was pushing buttons by mistake all the time. Maybe my hands are too big
Not gonna lie, my hands are pretty small, and my pinky barely has a place on the grip!
The bread and butter of any pro event photographer is the full frame body with a good, stabilized 70-200 2.8. Right now I have the 5div with the Tamron G2 . The body I bought, new, from Ebay, for 2750, and the lens, like new, from Amazon, with 1100. That makes it 3850. If I buy the Sony now, new, plus taxes, is 3600. Plus the 2500, if I am lucky, the GMaster , it would be like 6100. It is not worth it. Until Tamron and Sigma don't come with G2's for Sony E , I am not doing the switch. I coupled the 5div with the amazing Sony RX10 IV and I am covered in everything, for way less money. Plus, ok, the images, autofocus, might be sliiiiigtly better, but the beauty of the menus, ergonomics and touch screen of Canon is unrivalled
Hello Adrian, yeah sony still has alot to work on in terms of ergonomics, touch screen, and the menu. I think really the Sony is great for portraits and street style photography. The 42mp coupled with eye af, makes street photography and portrait photography a breeze and joy to photograph. But sports and events, I can't see the Sony rivaling right now.
Only if Canon had as many focus points, but Sony wins hands down on being able to focus off centered.
It is not very fair to Sony to compare it with adapted lenses to Canon with native lenses. With native lenses the AF is much better on Sony. It would be also interesting to compare Canon with 50L to Sony with Sony 50 1.4, which is much better - contrast, colors, sharpness. I like the colors from Canon also more, but it looks like Sony auto white balance often goes to cooler colors - you see neutral places to be a bit blueish often. With accurate WB colors would be better. Colors and auto WB are still better on Canon.
Hi Milan, yes you are correct about a proper comparison with native lenses. I made this video to help out users trying to make a smooth transition from Canon to Sony and how well it can adapt Canon lenses until being ready to make a full proper transition. Check out my other videos if you're interested! Thanks for the comment!
Oh, I understand - then it makes sense! :-) I liked the video and find it very useful ;-) Thank you!
can u try F1.4 lens to follow focus because F2.8 is too easy to focus
Stay tuned! Next video I shoot high speed burst eye autofocus with the 50mm at F1.3!
nice thanks Bro
Great video. Subbed. Just got my r3 today. Help me out with the settings haha. The manual doesn't show everything =(.
Thanks for the sub! Tell me what you'd like to know and i'll do my best!
Nice video, it's not very wise however to check high burst AF while she stays at the same focal plane.
a valid test would be to make the subject go towards you or away from you while you shooting her continuously. if she just moves left to right she probably gonna stay in focus anyways. just saying for next time.
Canon images look more solid in terms of color and defenition imo
I just got my GH5 along with Metabone ultra 64. My oh my sweet combo with my Canon L series lenses. GH5 by far the best hybrid Camera no question..
As a sports/event photojournalist i always can't understand those AF tests - ppl making them have no idea how to use Canon AF and its modes. I have no problem tracking world-class athlets running towards me even using OLD 5D3 with 24-70II and 70-200II combo - i've got like 9.5/10 shots in focus using group of 9 points, i rly doubt that even A9 can compete with 5D3 AF-C performance, not talking about 1Dx2/5D4 with their improved AF-system. Maybe with very fast primes Sony will have the edge, but Dual Pixel AF in latest Canon models sorted out that problem ;)
Also I looked for a smaller body to use it as travel/street camera, tried to use Sony - technology is great, canon glass is usable, but colors are so off. Ended up with Fuji with few compact prime lenses :)
Good day, there is a huge desire to move to Sony a7r3. Now I am the owner of Canon and I have a large park of optics Sigma ART. I've seen many reviews, MC-11 and Metabones c Sony a7r3 and noticed the regularity. At a long focal length of 85-100-200 .... the autofocus phase points work only in the center of the image. You shot on optics 24-70 L. At a focal length of 70 mm, you did not notice any problems with phase auto focus on the edges of the picture? How do you like the idea of making a survey? Demonstrate the operation of autofocus on the edge of the picture with an adapter MC-11. I think this question interests many who want to change the Canon camera to Sony and leave the old optics.
Hi Nikita! Yes in my previous video, where I take the Sony out during vacation. I used the the Canon 70-200mm F2.8L IS and the Sony was having some difficulty focusing. But both 70mm on the the two lenses did not have any issues focusing on the edges!
I understand correctly that up to 85mm with phase autofocusing on the edge of the image there will be no problems? More than 85 mm will work only in the center of the image?
Hmm I will have to check up on that, I can get back to you afterwards to make sure!
It will be very cool!
Hi Nikita, I just did a short test with my 70 - 200 lens and Sony with the Sigma MC-11 Adapter. Anything above 85mm, yes a large portion of the center image is usable with the phase detection. When on the very edge, lets say 10 to 15 percent the lens was having difficulty catching focus. At one point when zoomed all the way in to 200, the lens started rack focusing and would not catch focus at all on any part of the frame, unless I let go half pressed on the shutter and repressed to focus again, it would then work.
What adapter did you use?
Both canon lenses??
Hey man, great video - what Autofocus modes do you use for your Sony?
Hey leafsfan71! For the Sony when adapting canon lenses, I can only use AF-S and AF-C, waiting to get Sony Glass for the other autofocus features!
Sorry, actually meant the focus area - Are you using Wide, Expanded, etc?
And thank you very much for responding!
No worries! Yes for the entirety of this video I was using wide focus, with canon lenses the only other two options are center and flexible spot. Man this is really reminding me to make sure to purchase native sony glass! ha
I moved over from a Canon 7D MK1 with a 24-70L f2.8 v1 to the Sony A7Riii with the 24-105 f4 and the 85 f1.8, and both lenses are tack sharp in every instance that I have used them so far.
Watching your reviews helped me make my decision, and I couldn't be happier with my purchases! Thanks again.
That's great to hear! I'm happy that my videos could help you make a decision! I hope you enjoy that a7rIII!
Are you able to share couple of RAW files so i could compare skin tones?
Autofocus looks fast with adapter and canon lens maybe it is faster with sony lens ?
What you think about ISO ? Is it the same ? I sold my Canon 5D mark IV and buy sony a7r III. Color in canon maybe is better but lightroom do the job. Canon is big, too big, AF in sony is... WOW, but I think that canon is a bit better
I think ISO is about the same, spec wise they are I believe. Maybe the Sony has a slighter edge, but at 42mp you can see noise a lot clearer
I have Canon 24-70 L 2.8 L and I think if I sell it for sony 24-70 2.8 GM or buy a metabon adapter. How do you work with a canon with an adapter?
