The Sony NEX 7 was a revolutionary camera when it was released... 10 years ago. But is it still a good camera in 2021?

#Sony #NEX-7 #Review - Навчання та стиль
It's crazy that it took Sony until the NEX-7 to add a mic jack and until the a6600 to add a headphone jack to its APS-C cameras. Audio is so important!
Also gyrograph was in nex7
Hey bro, it's a pleasure to find these types of videos a few days ago I bought a Nex 5n and now I'm feeling really tempted to buy a nex 7, incredible the work you take to give this information. It is flawless. Greetings from Colombia in South America.
I have my Nex 7 since it came out and always been happy with it. Bought a A7III 2 years ago for better video work and full frame.
my dad got a NEX-7 from my grampa and it has been sitting for about 10 years, few months ago I found out about the camera so I joined a photograpy class and have some fun with it since it haven't been used for years.
Thank you so much for the review, just getting into photography and a friend of mine had this one.
I was waiting for it here on your channel very good review. I have my nex 7, although it is 10 years old, it is still good for natural persons who do not want to use it professionally, all the points you reviewed are exact those that I have been polishing in edition and if I have achieved very good photos .. (at least better than my mobile) very good review I leave my like for the great work you take making these videos
Thank you for this amazingly detailed review of the nex 7. I hope your channel hits over 1 million subs.
Thank you for the support!!!
I bought a Sony NEX-7 because of you! I look forward to more NEX videos! I'd love to see another lens & equipment suggestion video for the NEX-7!! Thank you for your content!
Thank you very much for putting effort into making this video. Great information!!
Pls do a comparison of the Sony Nex 6 vs Nex 7! I have alot of problem on picking one of those 2! I don't know which one is better
Is this a good camera for streaming
Do you get clean hdmi output and is there no shutoff time
could you please test wifi sd cards if they work with NEX-7? Eye-fi is not available anymore so there is Toshiba, Transcend and ez-share are available which are expensive to buy and fail to use with NEX-7.
Thanks in advance
I actually bought a nex7 because of all your videos!! Thanks for the info man
Loved this video. Do you have any recommendations for your favorite vintage or fujifilm lenses you've adapted to this camera?
I am using a Fujinon X lens f1.9 50mm FM and adapter FAX-NEX E.
What lens is did you use for the nex 7 video?
Can you not set the color balance for video like for photos before shooting?
I’m thinking about picking up an NEX 7 for an extra place to hang my E mount lenses / to take a few photos while using my ZVE-10 for videos. Good idea in 2024? The price appeals to me
Dude, can you tell me if this would be a webcam at all for Zoom or other calls? Thank you.
i bought the nex 5n cuz of Foxtailz, and loved it to just thatit didnt have wifi capabilities for a gimbal. what about gimbal use with the sony nex 7?
i still own my NEX-7 after my Nex3n and Canon 1100D stolen back in 2013-2015, the only problem i got is the Electronic viewfinder isnt working idk if its the sensor or its something elses.
Is it available a focus magnification control like α7 series cameras?
from which Sony camera the colors were corrected ??
which camera would you recommend me to start my thing on Photography, NEX 7 or NEX 6?
Been waiting on this one 🔥🔥
hello good video. How to set hss mode on camera?
is it good the next 7 for begginners?
I used to use a Sony Nex 5 and I upgraded to a Nex 7 but I have to say I still prefer the way my Nex 5 photo's look. Seems like I'm always fighting my Nex 7 to get things exposed right.
Agreed
Finally, been waiting on this and I’m not even a Sony shooter😭😭🙌🏾
I shoot Rollei Carl Zeiss Lenses on my NEX 7, and will probably buy a new body if this one dies. 24mp, Giant backlit Sensor, excellent processor, smooth film-like video, flagship NEX, ahead of it’s time. A joy to hold and use!!!
Would only trade for an A7, but much easier to focus, and not a huge change in depth of field.
I still have two NEX 5n Bodies to get lower light 16mp photos with much larger pixels and smooth transition and HDR like performance
So what differences/expectations will having Rollei Carl Zeiss Lenses produce?
I have a red blinking red light in battery compartment either on or off and never screen shows anything even when battery fully charged, anyone experience for this problem please help..! It ıs Nex 7.
I found a Nex 7 with the original lens for 200€, very good conditions. Should i buy it for that money? Thank you for the help.
Is sony nex 7 have avcs format?
Hello how are you? Should this color difference get in the way of taking tattoo photos?
I have a question about this camera: as far as i unterstand the body does have autofocus right? I have an adaptor on mine for a minolta lens. The lens itself does Not have autofocus but because the Camera Body does the AF should still work but it doesnt. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?
Hi!
No the autofocus will not work with an adapted lens unless you buy an expensive autofocus adapter. What you want for a Minolta AF lens to Sony E mount is the Sony LA-EA5 A-mount Lens Adapter for E-mount Cameras
I pasted that right from the Amazon website. It'll run you $228. Unfortunately even though it's supposed to make the lens work like a typical autofocus lens with this adapter I do see people are still complaining that some lenses still don't function perfect. Honestly my suggestion is to work on getting better at manually adjusting your lenses. I know it can be a time consuming thing and it's not as convenient, but it's a good skill to have and then you can use any adapted lens. Otherwise if you don't think that's too expensive, try the Sony adapter. Good luck to you, hope that helps!
Takecare:)
I never use the onboard audio in any camera no matter what it is. Always use a good quality audio recorder. Its the best way to do any professional video.
I bought the NEX 7 about a year after it launched and I still use it (although not as heavily as I once did). The flash shoe originated from the Minolta SLR camera system. It made sense to keep it (for a while) after Sony bought out the Konica Minolta camera division as the Minolta flash guns used the proprietary flash shoe. I think at the time the NEX 7 was launched the video feature was seen as a 'nice to have feature' as Sony had dedicated NEX video camcorders. I don't think much effort was put into the quality of the internal mics or the quality of the pre-amps. Over heating was the biggest issue I had with the camera while filming especially in a tropical climate. Despite having an a6500 I still enjoy using my NEX 7 for photography and very occasionally for small video projects.
Any advice on best budget sony for videos with good aeb. Battery life. Storage!? Thank you
@@scaleybangershow5956 It depends on what you call 'budget'. For a modern camera I would suggest the a6100 because it has all the essential features at a competitive price. I hope this helps.
@@rwilifeandtravel1854 Thank you. What lenses seem to work well for wildlife photography. Fishing photos. Star shots. Etc. Thank you. Sorry for the questions!!!
@@scaleybangershow5956 For taking photos of the night sky (stars) you would usually use a wide angle lens. The faster the optics the better (i.e. f1.4, f1.8, f2.8). For wildlife you want a telephoto prime or zoom lens. The type of wildlife and the distance from you will dictate the focal length you need. Depending on the subject you might get by with a 70-300mm lens but more often a 600mm lens may be needed. As for fish, a standard zoom lens may be all that you need.
@@rwilifeandtravel1854 Thank you. Appreciate the help. Liked and subbed
There's somebody selling a Nex 7 for 175 bucks with the 18-55, I'm so tempted even thought I already have an A7 III. I'm wondering if I should for photography only.
You can change the colors in camera easy to do I set them to look like my old Fuji S5 pro
thank you very much. Video clip very helpful
I’m a new beginner & I wanted to know if you Can tell me what brand & size GB SD card that will bring out the best quality for video vlogging for the NEX 7
anything that’s a class 10 card should work fine, I use a Sandisk 64GB Ultra PLUS card with mine and it works great
This was great as I just took mine out again after a long rest. I have some Contax G lenses that I wan to play with.
What adapter do you use to make those work on the Sony I'm very interested in these contax lenses they have amazing character to them
Bro I enjoy your videos, you help me Decide to buy a Sony NEX 5r
I still use and love my Hasselblad Lunar, a Hasselblad version of NEX7, titanium body with and carbon fibre hand grip
oh so you rich rich like that
Are you able to take long exposures with that camera ????
Some of the questions here are ridiculous.
Don't people have access to Google?
Good video as always.
Thank you 👍
tell me how to turn off auto gain control on sony nex 7? so that when recording quiet sounds, the camera does not increase the volume
He says in this video you can not turn it off.
@@mrbrakelol thanks, i don't understand english
@@Vezdehod No problem
can you remote control nex 7 with imaging edge app? can you try does touch focus works?
No, unfortunately you can not control it with Imaging Edge Mobile. Also, it does not have touch screen. Hope that helped!
@@FoxTailWhipz thank you 🙂👍🏻
any idea if the hack for a5000 for clean hdmi output works for the nex models if it does it will be a game changer
btw it's Mark Oakley a5000 video
It won't work for the nex 7 because it requires open memories tweak but it might work for other nex models that have open memories. I tried a gimbal hack for the nex 5t that only works on a5000 and up. It didn't work but everything else from the open memories tweak did.
@@100x2xp thank you for sharing !
I just ordered mines, i dont think i made a bad choice for my car films and pictures !.
Hey foxtailwhipz, great video as always!I'm starting to run a Facebook page. What camera would you recommend that takes the best pictures for commercial work?
That’s a great question! Depending on your budget, the Sony a6000 is a great camera for photos, as well as the NEX 6 & 7.
gosh, at last, I had feared that the Nex 7 only has an AGC. It's driven me nuts. I have been trying to find out why my latest few recordings have been hissing so much and went straight to the menus to try to find a way of setting the input record volume higher manually fearing that the gain was too low and raising the level would thereby of course increase the s/n ratio. Nothing to be found. Sony have simply included an AGC with no manual override which is so cheap I can't believe it. It mean I have to maintain some sort of noise to avoid the AGC cranking up the input volume in quiet spots causing this gruesome cheap hiss. I totally agree with your complaint in that regard. A massive disappointment.
The NEX-7 was my first mirrorless camera. I still like the picture quality, its size and the controls for photography. But the video quality never convinced me.
Does the screen on the 7 flip all the way around to see if you're centered in frame while vlogging like the 5r does ?
@@MasterArmedforces no
At the 17:11 you mentioned the dummy batter but i see it actually needs a real battery. What battery did you use on the top of the camera at 17:33 and can you link it? Or at least tell me the model of the battery so i can buy it?.
Look up Sony NP battery. Can get cheap ones on ebay
Finally a NEX 7 !!
No entiendo, como si sabe que es una cámara del 2010 con una tecnología bastante vieja, quiere sacarle calidad perfecta después de los 1600 ISO. Es como si una Nikon 5500 que es un poco mas nueva, Le va a exigir a mas de 800 ISO. Tengo esa Sony NEX7 y normalmente la trabajo a 800 ISO y hasta 1600 y no he tenido ningún problema. Para mi es genial aun en 2022. Todo equipo tiene sus falencias y virtudes, solo es aprender a conocer sus limites. Me gustaría saber en este momento, quien trabaja una Canon 5Dmark4 a 51.000 Y 100.000 ISO Y ESTA SATISFECHO...
Does the NEX 7 shoot raw video? If so what Bit?
The NEX 7 can’t record RAW video, only 8bit video.
Hi.... I'm a beginner youtuber, I want to make a video for the first time, may I borrow your video to be included in my video to give a tutorial on how to turn on subtitles from English to Indonesian?. Thank you in advance🙏🏻
Is this a mirrorless camera?
yeah its mirrorless
For still photography in RAW the Sony NEX-7 is a very good Camera in 2023 and many years more...
That is actually not that bad iso for 10yr old camera.
33 seconds damn I'm early
Im just gonna keep my sony nex 6 and not upgrade to the nex 7 ✨
🥰
Sony 6000 better for video
I always fart when someone mention color science. So for that reason i apologize.
Este tipo es un vende humo¡¡¡
