So which one would you go with and why? Take into consideration whether or not you own a mark III or are starting fresh?
Hey! Where are the "Frotography" t-shirts and bikini briefs (for men!)??????
After reading the specs of the A7RIV, I said the same thing. If you already own the A7RIII, there's really not as big of a jump as I would like in order to invest an extra thousand dollars. I usually skip at least one generation before upgrading my electronics.
I think I'm leaning toward the A7R IV due to the fact that it has nicer "knipples" and it is just much more Bad Assier...although I am considering an A9 as well...decisions, decisions.
I kept my A7Riii
Got R3 and once I had R4 on my hands I knew I had to switch, R4 body is just so much better
Watching this like I actually have the money to buy either
lmao, I have to sell my R3, and will have to debate what to do with that money..........
When this comment is made on like every one of these videos....so original
@@davidfairfield9693 whats your problem? Most of the viewers wont get any of those cameras anytime soon (or ever). So its always relevant
Work harder dammit!
me to haha fuck
me: i want the a7r IV
amazon: it's $3,500.00
me: you can have it
Gave me a good laugh :)
One single shot from the a7R4 could overflow a Zip disk
or 90 floppy disks and 1/2 an afternoon of free time. I think this is what purgatory may be like.
lmao zip disks!!!
The "click of death" zip disk. Mine all committed suicide 12 or so years ago.
Upgrade to jazz drives they take 1gb 🤪
ajschot I’ve upgraded to a 2 TB disk for photos and a 2 TB disk for Time Machine backup. No more iomega and their tiny little disks!
Your english is so clear, Jared!
I kinda learn photografy AND english with your videos!
Thank you!
Leandro Ferreira same
I also learn English with these videos. The subject is interesting and well explained. The speaking English of Jared Polin is very clear.
Y dun't u speek propa Inglund like eye did wen I was a children
I think if you are a wedding/event photographer you should get the A7r3 for file size and workflow stress on your CPU.
Wind tunnel test and Sniff test were so help full tu choose the Camera for me,
Thanks 😉
As a former a7r3 owner let me add that if you are planning to use adapted glass with an mc-11, it gets temperamental at times especially when shooting f8 and above in studio. Sometimes the eye af will back/front focus even though it looks accurate with the af box. Also, if you shoot video and stills and switch the mode dial between the two modes too quickly when shooting a hybrid assignment, it messes up the video file. I didn't have these issues with the A9. Pixel Shift is worth its weight if you print. You only need Sony's software to combine the files and you can export a raw file afterwards that Lightroom will read just like a normal Sony raw file.
I got my used (in excellent condition) a7r III for $1550! I'm happy with my choice.
That’s a great buy! Where’d you find it?
I paid around the same amount and couldn’t be happier!
SandraSaysStuff where did you find it?
@@Thumpr110 Reddit
SandraSaysStuff Thank you very much for the response. Was it just another person on there or is there particular place that sales happen?
I think, A7 RIV deserves more than 1/8th of check mark for focusing, because it has 1) LockOn Tracking 2) EyeAF in video mode.
Yeah that lock on tracking makes it like a D6 and then some but in a mirrorless body in terms of AF.
Thanks for the video, Jared!...Both informative and entertaining!
I came here for the knipples, throughly satisfied
Prepare for a new powerful computer + hundreds of Hard drives 😂 just to post images of your kids on Instagram
I believe even the standard M1 MacBook Pro can easily handle it
Great video! I was curious what battery grip is that on your cameras in this video? There are so many out there and hoping to get your recommendation on one that you recommend. Thanks!
They're most likely the expensive first party ones. Good if you want the same build quality throughout and keep your weather sealing on the grip as well. But honestly in the past I've exclusively used non-sealed third party grips on weather sealed cameras and never had any problems with water getting into them when I get caught in the rain or snow.
Thank you so much Jared, You gave me lots of useful information! Good lucK!
I just upgraded to the a7rIV and I love it, but I upgraded from the a7rII, so I was primarily doing it for the resolution bump for my macro shots. I really can not stress how much I love the new form factor though... I do a lot of hiking with my kit, and primarily hold it with a hand strap, for quick access, and over a 4-5 hour period my hand would start to cramp and get raw in spots with the a7rII, but don't have that issue anymore with the IV, plus the deeper grip just feels like there is less likelihood of an accidental drop with a hand strap, once you are good a sweaty. Gave the a7rII to my wife and she has zero issues with it, so likely just depends on your hand size or how you carry it, because she prefers using a sling strap, instead of carrying it in hand.
I know I am 2 years late but after finding a great deal on a used mint condition A7R4 I too am upgrading from an A7R2. Resolution aside the two mem card slots and bigger battery life alone are worth the price of admission.
Thanks for the comparison Jared! Do you think the lock-on af is a deal breaker if shooting wildlife (at a consumer level)? Thanks!
Thanks!! I am thinking into buy a A7RIII, do you think now it's a good time to buy it? Now it's $2300, or should I wait until Black Friday?
Your review & your Fro are equally fab!
Nice video, watched little bit late :) So now im planning to purchase A7R4, so can i go for R4 or R3 with firmware and even i heard the video quality is good in R4. can you suggest it will helpful
Your English is great, i listen to you much more than listening from any English speaker, because the information is useful and correct!
Thank to Jared
Thanks and you are rocking in doing the review, I am totally confused in buying my new camera, pls suggest which model is good a7r3 / a7r4 / A9. And any problems is existing in these model by now because you have advised on banding issues in A9 some time. Pls help me to choose the right gear. And this is my 1st sony camera. I am using nikon d300s currently. Thank you
Great review Jared, as always! Two weeks ago I sold my R3 vor 2000 Swiss Francs, which I invested into the new R4. The step from the R3 to the R4 was not as substantial as was the one from the R2 to the R3. But Sony listend to us
and improved the ergonomics and funcionality in several points, each of them not world-shaking, but in the sum resulting in a body which is more comfortable and thus a greater pleasure to use. I already owned most of the glass necessary to photograph anything, but could complement my lineup thanks to a bargain offer of the GM 100-400mm.
Question: Do you find that your computer is now struggling with the file size? Your Lightroom or whatever workflow you're using?
Both nice cameras but I hear the focus tracking on the A7R4 is quite a bit superior for wildlife/sports almost near A9 level but just not quite blackout free EVF would you agree?
I like ur presentation in every video.i love hearing your loud voice..keep me energy
the most important question I have is, does the new, deeper grip also offer more space between the grip and the bigger lenses? My biggest complaint with Sony thus far as been simply that my fat fingers don't fit. Shooting for even 15 or 20 minutes at a trade show with the A7III or A7R3 left me with scraped and sore knuckles.
I am still trying to decide on a new camera. I know I want a Sony full frame mirrorless camera. Just not sure which one I want.
I recently upgraded from an a7ii to the a7rIII. I have been making a lot of prints lately (24"x 36" and larger) and I wanted my prints to be cleaner as they are generally viewed within 1'- 2' of where they are displayed. It was a very tough decision but the cost difference made the decision easier. I picked up the a7rIII used in like new condition with under 500 shutter actuations for barely more than an a7iii and the features and upgrades between the a7rIII and the a7rIV wasn't worth the extra cost to me.
Do you find the difference from the a7ii to the a7riii to be enough to justify the latter? Looking at $2000 a7riii vs a $950 a7ii. Or would it be better to go a7ii and get better lens?
@@andrewfiedler4960 I honestly believe it was worth it. The battery lasts me all day compared to using 2 or 3 batteries with the a7ii. The EVF on the a7rIII doesn't get near as much digital noise as the a7ii does in low light. Image quality isn't noticably different on small scale media but with large prints it's very noticeable. The other thing I noticed is the raw files of that a7rIII seem to be much more flexible. I personally love that a7rIII and I loved the a7ii. I will say if I was just starting out I probably wouldn't notice the difference between the two.
@@andrewfiedler4960 I do have my a7ii for sale with kit lens, 3 batteries w/ chargers for $575 + shipping (USD) if you are interested in buying used.
@@TheSk8deshtruction send me an email at andrewkfiedler@gmail.com, I have a friend who would like to purchase it if you're still selling it.
Just made it your 6k like. Thanks for your videos always informative and entertaining to watch.
Hi Jared, thanks always for your fun and interesting and lots of knowledge of your videos. Please kindly advice. I'm thinking of buying sony alpha 7R4 . I want huge 61 megapixel image and I can crop instead of using huge lens. But this camera has been on market for more than a year, so I'm wondering if new model Alpha 7R 5 will be on the market soon. Should I buy now or should I wait ? Please kindly advice.
HI Jared. I'm debating on moving from the Fujifilm X-System to FF, either the Nikon Z7 or the Sony a7Rlll. In your opinion, which system would give me the most bang for my buck over the Fuji -T3, in terms of image sharpenss and detail in large (24" x 36") prints? Also, I heard another reviewer who shall remain namless (TN), state that the Sony bodies/sensors have a major issue with "sensor dust" accumulation. Have you seen that in your experience? Thank you sir!
The gear vault app is awesome. Thanks Jared
Still holding on to my 4yr old A7R2 as I just do casual shooting during vacations
Great video. Are images better on A7R4?
Even thought the 7Riv has more resolution, I don't think it translate to a lot of difference when we are talking on such a small real estate of screen. I notice on the 7Riv screen that it displays shadows super blown out with excessive red/magenta hues. I don't remember this being a problem with my 7riii.
I have a full-time job but I shoot paid work with a Canon 80D and 70D as backup and I've invested in glass like the Sigma ART 1.4 50mm. I'm ready to go full frame. Should I get the Sony a7R iv or a Canon 5D (would love a 1D) Are there lens mount adapters for the Sony for Canon EF lenses. I found an adapter for Sony E mount but I think the Sony aR7 mk iv is a FE mount and not all E mounts are compatible. I'm not sure what to do and I'm wating time trying to decide what to invest in next. Can anyone give advice?
Right... Sony need to upgrade their LCD screen resolution.. 3" is fine but 1.4m dot is kinda low... n been stuck at that number for quite sometime already.
I love my a7R III with the 100-400GM both for photo and filming, the IBIS is great and let my hand hold and film at both 400 and 600mm ( APS-C ) in 4K.
Have not heard knipple since my grandpa who is from Pennsylvania said it in similar issues. Thanks for reminding me.
Please clarify: with all the firmware updates, do the A7R3 and A7R4 actually have the same auto-focus functionality, such as quality of eye auto-focus and tracking? ALSO, do you detect any difference in the colors produced in RAW images. Thank you.
Hey Fro, IF you had to choose between the a9 and the a7rv at the same price which one would it be?
I have a9 and a7r3, I feel, a743 pictures are more sharper, have more color, more crisper so a7r4 would be more sharper, I guess
Hi Jared. Nice video. I have an A7R2. I'm looking to upgrade. IQ is great for landscape but focusing and ergonomics are not so good. In Jan 2022, what do you suggest I upgrade to? I can get an A7R3a for $2000, A7R4a for $2600 or I can get the A7IV for $2675. All of them are new cameras including taxes. In addition to landscapes I have started shooting portraits, wildlife and perched birds. I would like to try birds in flight but would be a nice to have. I am not ready to buy the A1 at this time.
Do you have a recommendation? Thanks!
Hi Jared nice video!! Do you recommend any of this over A7III ...landscapes, macro is what I do mostly. thanks
In my opinion for landscape and macro I would rather have an a7rii than an a7iii and I'd also rather have an a7rii than riv plus save lots of money. Only my opinion and for landscape and macro photography in mind. Others may disagree im sure.
I started my Sony adventure with the A7Rii. Its a great camera but a bit sluggish in processing the shots. I had 2 of these, one as a backup. As soon as the A7Riii came out I could not resist and still mostly use it today. It has everything I needed. Found no need yet to upgrade it. P.S. I bought a A7 converted to infrared and it works great and I realized that probably all of the A7 line are actually very good.
Im switched from canon 5d m2 to sony alpha m IV its so worth it after 11 year of using 5d ... new technology new generation and all its new
R4

Charles Macro FE mount and E mount are identical. As long as what you found isn’t a Speed Booster or Focal Reducer then it will be perfectly compatible!
Jared would you recommend the A7RIV for filming music videos?
I'm 40, havent got a clue about cameras and want to get into photography (just a hobby), this has helped immensely with my decision between these two cameras! This is my go to channel. Thanks 👍🏼
Jarod, you kinda missed a couple of things. First, there are a number of reviews (e.g. Dustin Abott) that say that the A7RIII has better high ISO noise performance than its big brother. Second, you omitted to say that the A7RIII does not have the lock on autofocus performance of the IV. This is important for sports and bird photographers. In addition, the shutter of the A7RIV has been re-engineered for more longevity. There are some complaints in online forums about shutter life for the A7RIII. The key question is whether the IV is worth an additional $1,000. IMHO, the answer is no, the a7RIII is a great camera and there's no home run with the a7RIV, just a bunch of singles.
Also the readout of the R3 is faster so less rolling shutter when using silent shooting
@@shaolin95 Thank you for this intel I wasn't aware of.... And I see it as a strong step backward.
I was thinking some things you might aswell buy the 3 and a adaptor and save for sony glass or 3 and exchange for sony lenses it's up to you entirely ! ... your thoughts .. save $$$
Regarding the ISO noise, ARIV apparently has equivalent or less noise if you downscale the images to the same MP as the ARIII in post.
A7RIII current price and rebate are hard to beat.
sorry for that silly question. im going to buy a camera. I'm a beginner in photography . im learning from your excellent Chanel . my question is. I like the canon m6 mark 2 and the canon RP. which one you recommend ?
Could it be possible to have a comparison between Sony A7RIV and Nikon Z7 with last firmware? Or Z7 really sucks versus the Sony? I am still a Nikon shooter because I have lot of Nikon gear... Thanks Jared!
Do you recommend to use Sony CFexpress Type A Memory Card or SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO 300MB/s UHS-II SDXC Card for Sony A7RV?
Hi Jared, thx for the vid. As of the high megapixel not every sony fullframe lens is compatible with the a7rIII or a7rIV. Do you know where and how to determine if the lens is capable of handling 60 megapixel or not? I've heard of this and not sure which lens to buy first.
How good will Nikon glass (24-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8] work with these cameras with the sony e to nikon f converter?
This might be a dumb question but do more mega pixels make a video more clear? And is Sony’s a7r Iv 1080 sharper than canons 6d II ?
But what did you fIlm this video with?
He usually records his videos on a Nikon. He's been using the Nikon Z6 for his videos lately.
sir you have a great knowledge about cameras
I love my A7R3, Ill upgrade in a year. I just got this camera and not about to order a 4. has lots of wow features like new sensor but theres nothing wrong with my current sensor. Good video Mr Fro. Im catching myself watching more of your videos since you are more entertaining and not a boring dude

Question...what choice would you make between: Sony a7riii+Sigma art 24-70mm f2.8 or Sony a7iii+Sony 24-70mm f2.8(new)II or Sony a7rIV+ Sigma 24-70mm art f2.8.. .because I'm changing part of the equipment and I'm in doubt between spending more money on the new Sony 24-70mm f2.8 lens (US$2,300) or saving on the lens buying the Sigma 24-70mm f2.8(1,099) and then investing in the Sony a7r IV....
I got the R IV because the better sealing, body, focus, and EVF improvements. Those things were some of the things keeping me fully invested in my canon dslr, keeping both as of now to see if I want to stick with Canon.
Whooo loving the HE-MAN setup in the background! By the power of Grayskull!
Excellent comparison, sir! I have a question...I have zero experience with Sony, and have been a Fujifilm-X shooter for about 8 years, first with an X-Pro1. My main interest is obtaining the sharpest, most detail-rich images as possible, given the constraints of time and funds. As a landscape and product STILLS X-T3 shooter (no video), Lately I feel like I've gotten the most out of the APS-C format, hence I have been debating on selling my Fuji kit (reluctantly), and moving into FF, specifically the Sony a7Rlll and lenses like the Sony 16-35 f/2.8 GM, Sony FE 55 f/2.8, and the 90mm f/2.8 G Macro . Since I shoot 99% tripod-mounted, neither IBIS nor video interests me. So, my question is, for large print output (around 24"x 36" prints), how much of an improvement in terms of image sharpness, detail rendition, dynamic range, base ISO performance, etc., would I see over the already excellent X-T3 (combined with the ultra-sharp Fujinon XF80mm f/2.8 Macro lens), when using the a7Rlll and the Sony 90mm f/2.8 G Macro or Sony 16-35 f/4 tripod-mounted? Thank you, Jared!
What did you decide to do? I’m deciding between the xt-4 and a7riii right now
When I made the switch to Sony I went with the A7rII thinking I would have time to buy glass before the A7r4. Well I’m not there yet, but I played with one at PhotoPlus and wow! Great rig!

Charles Macro well here’s the deal. Canon has stated they are not going to develop any new glass for the EF. So you will be switching to something in the not too distant future.
I think Canon is great, and the new Canon stuff is wonderful can’t go wrong. So is the Sony system.
I used the 85mm ART while I was on Canon I wouldn’t use it on the Sony. Great lens! It was my favorite! I’m all native glass on the Sony. Just make sure you get full frame emount it will work on the Sony.
Dope as real life vids, have you compared z7 Nikon vs Sony a7riii? Thanks Fro Bro
Great video as usual but What’s the song at the end of the video? :( can’t find it at all
Lol Jerry Seinfeld “Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
Coming off an a7r3 to the a7r4 - Now having shot with it for a month. I want my old camera back. The a7r4 images are WAY noisier and noise is experienced even at ISO100. 61MP is too much for this camera to handle. The good with the R4 is the grip, the AF system - really good. But as far as your hit rate and satisfactory image quality, the R3 wins hands down. Folks on the forums have to regularly denoise their images. How is third party denoising in your workflow allowing you to realize the 61MP of the r4? it doesnt. Short answer. The r4 does do some amazing things and I will keep it for those things but really, the R3 is better in most of the ways that matter. I will be buying a new a7r3 knowing what I know now. Shame it was a $3400.00 lesson.
Which crop sensor camera is better Sony a6400, Nikon Z50 or the Canon EOS M50?
Thank you Jared!!
I finally took the plunge and upgraded from my a6000 to an a7R III, along with three full-frame lenses. Nearly 6k in the hole, but I'm hoping it's gonna be worth it. Thanks for the video! I feel better about my purchase after watching this!
I've got 2 a6000s and I'm so bored with them. Spotted now the A7 mk3 I can get for less than 1300 squids, now at that price I want to get the 7 and an 85mm prime to hang with my 28mm monster leica Q.
if you had put that into bitcoin a year ago you would have like 34k profits right now, enough to buy any camera you like and still you’d have a lot of money left for a car or whatever
how do either of these cameras perform for wildlife? especially considering i am a detail and sharpness freak.
question / can I do multiple exposure with the sony a7R iv , thanks in advance
Software upgrades seem to come along only for specific features just before the competition is about to release theirs, just to keep one step ahead.
Things such as a red focus box, which should be the simplest thing to implement hasn't filtered down th the Riii yet.
Thanks Jared
I’m filming a lot of night shows. How bad is it to not have the face tracking AF on A73?
I just bought the a7RIII, moving from the a6300 that I still keep for casual travels. The quality jump is tremendous and the a7RIII is so much closer in price to the a7III now.
@Eliezer Espinosa Image quality and autofocus. The autofocus is just better in every way and the image quality is also basically just better in every way. Half the total noise at any given ISO, about 32% higher linear resolution, better dynamic range, and it's full frame allowing you to take full advantage of high end full frame lenses which tend to be sharper than APS-C lenses.
With the Black Friday discount sales for the a7R3 going for less than US$2k does it make sense to go for it or wait for the more expensive a74?
Over here in the UK the A7RIII is selling secondhand on eBay for around £1,600 so it was an easy decision for me. I'm very happy with it - apart from the screen! I really wish it was fully articulated and touch-enabled. Maybe one day....
Im seriously thinking about changing my Eos 5Dmk4 for the A7r4. I have a ton of Canon glas though, but might keep some of them and get an adapter. Its a big leap for me though. Been faitful to Canon since I started as a paid photographer in 1998 (and as a hobbyist before that). Any thoughts about what I should do? Im a portrait photographer.
Unless you print large images, I think the 5Dmk4 is good enough for portraits. I plan to buy the A7r3, but I will keep the 5Dmk2 for portrait because I love Canon colors. A7r3-4 for high ISO, follow focus, 2 cards and video. Wait a couple years for the new cameras.
@@benoithyperlord I do print large but Thats not the main reason Im looking at the a7r4. Its the autofocus. When shooting kids in the studio or if I run around outside, and let them chase me and I shoot from the hip. With my 5D I am lucky if I get 3 out of 10 that are focused right (not the shoulder or the background etc). With that eye af I think would be a gamechanger.
@@robertbjork You would be a proper twat to change if you own glass. The Sony color science is utterly shit.
@@lincolnshirepoacher894 Going with the R5 now thanks to its AF. So all good. Colors are fixed with the click of a button (selfmade presets), so thats no concern.
I have actually switched from an A9 to the A7R4. I do mostly wildlife and though the A9 was great my biggest issue with it has always been a need for more reach and the ability to crop or use APS-C mode with a 26mp readout has been amazing. Sure the A7R4 doesn't grab the moving targets as fast and I will miss some shots with the 10 fps vs the 20 fps but I that won't bother me as much as missing the shot that doesn't require super fast AF.
Interesting. Are You still Shooting wildlife w 7riv?
@@steven871 If I am going to be in a hide or will be using a tripod and know this ahead of time. So basically when targeting still birds. If I am going to be walking or have a chance at in flight birds I just bring my A1.

Hi! Thanks for a great channel. There has been some discussion around dust on the a7Riv sensor. Would it be possible for you to address that issue? :-) Kristian
HI
Jared
I don't own any camera right know and I was thinking to buy the sony a7iii but the a7iv seems to come out soon should I wait or should I get the a7iii
what is the best sony mirrorless camera for video ? a7iii or a7riii or a7s ? what should i buy ?
It is sometime ago now i like a lot of options of the a7R iv but the missing possibility to photograph in mRAW format for instance, like on Canon and Nikon decided me to get the a7R III and keep some money for some good glass to upgrade my Canon glass to Sony and keep my workflow not overloaded with big raw files
Hey Jared, Nice video,
I am a travel and street photographer, Sony a7riii Is it good choice? suggest
Yes, that is what I did, I have them both now. Just nitpicking here Jared: the AF coverage is the same for contrast AF, not the same for the phase AF. The larger number of AF points in the IV allow to cover a wider area. This is quite relevant when shooting in portrait mode with eye AF. With the III the eye af will often not work as well. It does have a pretty substantial impact for who shoots portraits a lot. Also, the the IV has the real-time AF currently not available in the III. So the IV is a pretty substantial advancement in AF and imo deserves a full checkmark
Just so people know
A7RIII crop 18mp and uncompressed raw 80Mb.
Thanks mate, useful info
Also to let people know, real tests have proven iso clean usable range gives the r3 an edge, over the r4. Wish this review/comparison wouldv'e included actual comparison results vs specs alone.
@@NikkThompson I have owned both, and the high ISO noise difference is easily taken care of in post, but you CAN'T add back in the extra resolution and detail of the A7RIV to any A7RIII image. An easy choice to make for me and I am happier with the A7RIV. It is in another class from my excellent A7RIII, and worth the money IMHO. Cheers
@@6gwilliams "taken care of in post", has shown to show significant color shifting.
More pixels smaller area. Also why the a7iii and a9/a9ii will have better iso range than the a7riii, and also their apcs counterparts.
@@6gwilliams How do you reduce the noise in post? Do you fix it with the profile corrections tool in Photoshop?
great review, I have small rx100iv, and think about upgrading.
Hello, I want to sell the sony a99 ii to buy a sony a7R III, to take sports photos ..... what do you think? Thank you
I’ll take the 3 any time for the simple reason that with the 4 you need to buy more hard drives due to the 60 megapixel. I can bet there will not be a big difference image wise.
Am very new to this, what are the attachments on the bottom of the cameras?
Does anybody knows: if i have 60mp in Sony a7r4, if i make a crop image (for example, crop to 40mp), will it be as good as 40mp no crop Sony a7r3? And by the way how i can do that crop image? By choosing image size?
You're the man fro, always get excited when you upload. Keep up the great work brotha.
Next: Sony A9 Mark II vs A9 please.
Just bought the A7R3 a few weeks ago and m contented 😇
Just don't shoot with it in the rain...., or in dusty conditions,....or in in the snow....
My best investment for my Nikon D3200 was finding ancient Pre AI glass primes. All manual... is there an adapter from Nikon to Sony mount that will allow me to be the one focusing with the A7 series, or is that just a bad crossover? love my 50mm F1.4 that was 'born' the same day i was in 1964.
Looking to buy one of A7R 3 or A7R4. Loved your review, and that makes the decision even harder now.. I do have Sony glass. One query though is about the image quality on one vs the other.. Would the higher Megapixel influence a lot of ISO performance indoors or outdoors?
Don't listen to this fluffy haired doofus. The high ISO shots have more noise than the London Tube.
Just received my A7RIV yesterday! Decided on that one because I've been shopping for a ~50mm, ~135mm, and more reach than my 100-400mm. Instead of paying $3,000+, decided on that camera and using crop mode when I wanted around those focal lengths and still getting 26mp images. Also, needed a second camera if one gets stolen/damaged...
Noise at high iso is better in Mark 3.
I have my trusty A7III for low light situations.
@@v3blaxican The higher noise in the Mark 4 is due to the higher resolution MP count. Curious if you throw it in APS-C mode to 26 MP if the noise is then the same as your Mark 3 at high ISO? Thanks
@@familyschaeffer8348 I think the ISO quality stays the same if full frame or cropped mode, but I'll test it later. I never used the Mark III, but at two thirds of the resolution, I'm sure it's still better in low light than the IV.
Hi brother.. Am a candid photographer i using candid photography and videography so which is the best camera Sony a7r III are a7r IV are a7s III ? Plz tell me a suggestion brother....
Have had the a7r3 since day one and don't really see a reason to upgrade. Not for all around shooting
