I had the a7riii. The mega pixel was just too much file to deal with. Less than 1% of 1% have their photos on walls or busses. Totally not needed. The high noise is very noticeable too, for me. I want to a7iv for its faster focus, more manageable files and better low light. Seriously guys, we are at the point where these cameras are more than good enough.
Crop
@@mlzs_ deal with it
A7iv videographer told me that it is prone to over-heating. Don’t know if others have experienced the same.❤
I ended up choosing the A7RIV over the A7IV for a couple of reasons. 1) I don't shoot video often, so the video capability isn't important to me. 2) I shoot wildlife and birds most often, so cropping can be very handy. Also, if you shoot in APS-C mode, you're still shooting with 26 megapixels.
Wow, I was about to sell my A7riv for the A7iv but remembered I could shoot in APS-C and have 26 megapixels and be ok with it.
@@jarrellelee shooting APS-C mode, your telephoto lenses receive a 1.5x in focal length. Which is handy shooting wildlife. APS-C mode for the A7IV is 18 mega pixels, compared to the riv 26....
@@andrewbrooks2001 how do you feel about the color science of both cameras? I want the a7iv but the only thing I see that's slightly better is the AF
@@jarrellelee from what I can tell, they look similar. Sony's colors always seem to be on the cooler or on the muted side. You can always change the hue in post production.
Out of the three manufacturers, I think I like Canon's color reproduction (unmodified out of the camera) the best. I always thought Nikon had a similar color reproduction as Sony.
Your lenses also play a role in the color reproduction too. Sometimes I'll shoot with adapted old Minolta A Mount lenses to get a certain look to the photos. Honestly, I think this is why I chose Sony's Alpha platform over Nikon or Canon. I had a bunch of old lenses and I didn't want them to go unused.
@@jarrellelee Exactly! That's why I'll keep it until Sony gives me more megapixels. Pricewise maybe more than I paid for the A7RIV.
You break down a lot of technical info in an easily understood manner - well done! Turned out that my "next"camera was an a7c - sometimes smaller is better!
I have had the R4 since over 2 years and its a fantastic camera for fine art - composition. It has an in built aps-c camera at 26mp so each lens can have a different field of view. I can put a 300mm lens in a pouch and get extra reach. 8k still animation and for visual lectures easy enlarging whle projectng - given the detail. Huge potential of cropping and recomposing - can get more than I still from the image. I can get more detal from my slr lenses - particularly macro & there also a lot of good 3rd party modern lenses from tamron, sigma and samyang that can give the extra resolution The extra resolution of the EVF is very useful for MF. 10bit video is not a priority for the moment and so I will wait for the a7r5. However the a7iv is an excellent hybrid camera. And it really depends on ones usage.
Best camera comparison video I've seen. All the relevant details to complement my research into a camera that costs the same as my car did. Thank you.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot. 👍👍 The new A7riv(A) with its 2.36 million dot lcd has me wanting that big time.
while the screen is still 1m dot, the quality of screen is improved, the siii for example is only 1.4m dot, but it's a whole lot more accurate in sunny weather mode (my default screen brightness), hard to show on a video. Of course the 2m dot screens are killer nice, I owned the canon for a while.
the new codecs are a big winner for me, so much better and with the option to make smaller files with higher quality. biggest downside is that when shooting 10 bit 4:2:0, a super simple to process codec, you have only the option for 24/60, missing 30!!! the A7siii has this issue, and I havent see any youtuber bring it up, but I will when I eventually compare to the Siii. The H265 codecs are amazing otherwise. You will love the options on the A7iv a lot more. On top of all that, a truly fast UI, makes it feel like you bought something new 😆. The Riv can be sluggish at times.
That's what I'm going with it's pretty future proof
The presenter has a great sense of humour - very watchable! Yes, information is clear, precise, informed by years of experience. Thanks so much! ; ))
Glad you enjoyed it! more to come!
Very informative, and great delivery. Although I’m leaning A7Riv for landscape, you showed some great reasons to go for the A7iv instead. Both great choices.
Good review. Still trying to learn the a7ii. Lots to know.
Love the effort in this video... Subbed
Though it was like drinking water from a fire hose, I found this video extremely useful on many levels. I'm currently debating which of the two camera bodies best suits my needs, and you have certainly helped me prioritize my requirements vs. my good-to-have list.
Big thanks

Yeah when you learn English as a second language and speak like first this is what happends.
Thanks for sharing. A lot of information but straight to the point.
I have the Sony A7RIV, I thought of getting the A7IV as a second camera, but the A7IV is too expensive compared to the old A7III and the EVF have not resolution enough, at the time the A7RIVA was on sale for just a little more then the A7IV, so now I have two nearly identical Cameras Sony A7RIV and Sony A7RIVA, I am very happy with these two Cameras !
Another great video! Loving my A7iv!
Great video. Thought briefly about the A 7R4 as my new camera, but for many of the reasons you mention decided to wait on the A7IV. Since I will be a new full frame camera owner, I'm using the next 2 months to plan the other camera accessories I will need as part of my new kit. These include my first lens, storage cards, cleaning items, a camera bag, editing software and maybe a new laptop. Amazing all the stuff it takes to be a digital photographer in 2022.
Glad it was helpful! it can be overwhelming
@@CharlieVN what camera were you recording this video with?
Thank you so much! Your video was straight to the point with no nonsense and helped me to buy the A7IV!
Great video, informative and fast paced. I like your delivery. I owned the A9 and A7R IV. Then I bought the A1. So I sold the A9 since the A1 is faster and the A9 has the old body. But I really didn't need two Hi-MP cameras. So I bought the A7 IV. It compliments the A1 perfectly. Anything the A7 IV lacks the A1 has it covered and now I have a better camera for ISO noise with the A7 IV that has an articulating screen. I have a 3 year old and shooting low in portrait mode on Sony cameras in the past meant getting on the ground. Honestly that screen was the deal maker for me. I prefer the tilt screen most times but the A7 IV is going to do great for portraits. The A7R IV is still a beast and I'm having a hard time letting it go.
Hi John, I am getting into photography and I came across 2 deals for a7riv and a7iv roughly the same price except 7riv has about 20k shutter count and 7iv is new. I would be shooting nature, people and Astro. Your recommendation would be very helpful. Thank you
@@Ethanhunt413 I would get the A74. It has a better menu system and auto focus. It's a better all arounder. It's a great first camera. The A7R4 is outstanding for still subjects and landscapes but you need top level lenses to really see a difference in the details between the cameras. People get hung up on MP counts but that's just 1 part of the whole experience. 33MP is plenty except if you need to do heavy cropping like far away birds for example. 1 bit of advice I'll give you... You date a camera body but you marry a lens. Always buy the best glass you can afford. A $500 camera with a $2000 lens will take better shots then a $2000 camera with a $500 lens. Good luck!
Great review, thoroughly enjoyed every minute and every pixel
Thank you for information! Very usefull!
thx awesome vid
Excellent presentation Very informative. Thankyou.
Dope video !!! Great insight
Like your presentation. Thank you.
Amazing video contact, and brother you have a great sense of humor I laughed a lot through thr video great job, you got a new subscriber!

I picked up a a7RIV in March and love the thing. My a7IV showed up last week and will primarily serve as a back up to the a7RIV and my vlogging camera. Now if Sony could only make some a7SIIIs, mine has been on back order for months.
vlogging? There are no videos on your channel?
@@duncanmccabe974 click the bricks is my travel street photography channel, I've got about 10 backlogged videos that need to be edited and posted though...
Finally got my a7SIII in this week and it is a BEAST! The rest of my rig parts show up tomorrow! The a7IV sensor readout speed is a problem shooting video with a fish eye lens, major warping happens when you move the camera around at all, the a7SIII runs that 12mm Samyang fisheye like a boss.
Great video!! Can you confirm how many times does the A74 recalibrate focus per second? Like in A9 it's 60 times per second and 120 times in A1.
Very entertaining breakdown buddy! A7iv here
Great video & thanks for the information
Thank you Charlie for the informative and helpful comparative video! God bless and good luck!
Thanks. This was as helpful and informative as entertaining.
Dude. Love your content. You are somewhere between Manny Ortiz and Gerald Undone in applicability and detail. If you can just get into the algorithm I think you can get up over 100k subs in no time.
One suggestion: vary your setting and music as you change topics once in awhile. Gives the mind a clean break between the "chapters" in your video and makes the info stick a little better. Otherwise your delivery makes it like drinking from a firehose
I'm struggling with music, noted
I’m thinking of going from my 7r2 to a 7iv Took a trip to Disney, got some amazing photos, but missed on some low light scenes dude to not being able to change my autofocus point on the fly.
Good video. I have an a7RI and want to trade for the A7IV. One thing to also point out, is you lose a the 60+ megapixels once you push up the iso. So unless you’re only shooting in studio lights or outdoor day, then the resolution difference doesn’t really come into play.
good point, all those megapixels turn to mush with high iso.
having said that, there is no point pixel peeping with 33 megapixels
Amazing Video, love your Stille :)
Your review is just brilliant
I bought for 3 weeks a Sony A7r4a and had before many other Brands and models. This camera is from Menü and missing touch functions the worse I ever own BUT from the image quality that they can produce the most impressive I ever Own and even in APSc Mode 26mpix is more than sufficient for me. Best regards.
R4 owner here, I agree, the menus are bad .. but well I got used to them somehow. I'm very disappointed that sony never updated the firmware since I own it (about a year), they could have improved many things but they keep releasing new cameras instead.
@@jean-phil release new expensive cameras will bring Sony more profit as give FW Updates to their customers... unfortunately
@@ju2705s maybe short term but clients might be tempted to go for a vendor/manufacturer that has a better track record at software updates
@@jean-phil that's true e.g. Fujifilm
R series doesn't have AA Filter so it will be way better in results. Sony A7 IV has AA filter mean not starp as high end cameras are.
great vlog as usual, But should I be worried about overheating (the A7-4) for one hour continuous filming stage play?
Probably not, as long as you're not playing with the menus a lot which oddly overheats the camera more than recording 🤣
Ok I have the a1 paired with my 200-600 . I was going to get a second body to keep a my 70-180 tamron or just a second lens As the 200-600 is a lot to move around to change lenses. I was thinking either the a7riv or the a7iv. What are your thoughts?
I currently own the a6400 and looking to upgrade, I have quite a few sony apsc lenses as well as a 200-600 lens. Mainly use for wildlife and action pics of the family.
What a7 would you recommend as I would still like to use the apsc lenses as they are much smaller for travel but also have the full capabilities of the 200-600 when needed.
I’m in the same situation. Which one did you go with and how did it turn out for you? Idk which one of these 2 I should go with.
Very informative
Good Video as I had this very question. Clean used A7RIV are running right around this same cost. So for me the question is high resolution finder and crop-ability of files vs newer processor and slight better AF?
it's a tough call, and you should consider how big you print and if you need to crop hard (like for wildlife). I know I cant go back after using the newer type systems, the upgrade sort of reminds me of the A7iii vs A7rii way back when, I was convinced I needed the megapixels, but after a taste of the newer A7riii, no way could the Rii stay around for much longer and eventually, I had the Riii + 7iii pairing for a bit. Just one of those things that a much newer gen does to you. if it's strictly action photos, I would discard everything and simply get an A9, and get insanely high keepers, which for me, outweighs pixel level sharpness.... one of the few cameras that I would get again, if only I didnt have a youtube channel
@@CharlieVN I guess, A7R IV-A still picture result is way way better than picture taken from A7 IV.
I came for the information, but stayed and subbed for the comedy!
super hilarious! keep it up 💯😆👍
Very good comparison that I was looking for. Since I am primarily concerned about autofocus quality and speed, what do you think, which camera is the best for capturing (fast) moving subjects, e.g. playing children? Up to which cropping factor does the A 7 IV offer still an excellent image quality?
I could go for the Sony A1 but I am not willing to spend over 7 k € for a camera with a miserable screen, Z9 unfortunately is too big and too heavy…
Thanks a lot for your thoughts!
I have the R4 and I would go with the A74 if I were you. As he mentions in the video, the focus is better, it has the same autofocus as the Sony A1 (Sony's flagship). The R4 is great for cropping but it comes with downsides such as massive files that might be hard for your computer to process. Cropping also takes time. I'm probably going to buy A74 and sell my R4. I don't shoot that much videos with my R4 because it's not that great (image stabilization is better with my phone), but now with all the new technologies in the A74, I think it will be much better.
Why is the A7R IV better for landscape? Unless you are taking huge prints or cropping images, isn't the image quality the same regardless of the resolution?
I am looking between these for sports photography and portrait photography. Lots of good info but would love your opinion!
definitely the A7iv or even the A9…. because 60mp is extremely taxing and as soon as you leave base, the noise really starts to eat away your true resolution, and this sort of depends how much of a monster PC you have now (A7r4 and A1 were unbearable for most stuff outside of landscapes). A9 is in a different league for sports, A7iv is by far the most pleasant to use camera, amazing to work with. if you do a ton of sports, seriously look at the A9, incidental, get the A7iv, the usability factor of the A7iv is arguably the best out there, the customization is beyond anything Sony currently offers. The extra wheel makes a big difference, and operationally so fast and easy.
Hi great video, loads of info and many good conclusions. So just subscribed. My new a7iv is on pre-order because I felt getting one without placing an order pdq might mean waiting until mid 2022 given the overall range of improvements and world supply chain challenges right now. Not to mention prior sales pattern 3+ years back with Sony's breakthrough camera/body the a7iii.
I came to Sony via their APS-C a6500, as a compact alternative to my extensive Nikon kit. Saw the a7iii hype nearly 4 years ago and waiting in anticipation of Nikon's Z response. Underwhelmed by original Z6/7 models and limited lens readmap, I bought a Sony a7Riii. Starting selling most of my N kit. Added an a9 and a7Riv plus many native Sony optics.
Not all perfect, pretty good but some frustration too. Sold on a6500, then a7Riii for a7Riv. Good but by no means amazing. Better ergonomics and a few other points but what a pain dealing with 61Mb files!! Needed a major PC upgrade and masses more HD storage. Sold my a7Riv thinking about buying an a1, but need at least two bodies, saw a7iv offering many great features so ordered within 48 hours of launch.
That's atypical for me, I'm not usually an early adopter and I don't like having to pay top dollar to be amongst the first to benefit. I usually prefer to wait for a discount, but thought that unlikely much before mid to end 2022. So for me I suspect trading my a7Riv for a nominally more basic a7iv might well prove a better move. I may yet pair it with an a1, if/when I trade up my a9 (never saw much point in a9ii).
due to the supply issues, I ordered as soon as I got the email..... 20 minutes after start. I didnt want to wait to the middle of next year as well.... I missed the preorder of the 35-150, and sort of regret it now.... oh well...... I will rent one for the review and have an outstanding preorder to use whenever that gets fulfilled..... also have the a1 coming for review, better late than never.
I still don't know which one to get. I was planning on a7riii or riv, but in your video it sounds like it is tricky to get good use of the 61mp with lens, and low light etc.. Had a a7ii while back and loved it (long story) but am in process of selling off my entire Canon kit go back to Sony. Will have for vaca - portraits - and some birding/animals with like a 300mm lens. I don't know if I will get good sharp results from the 61mp in that last scenario? Thanks!
I have A1, Sony A7R IV-A, A9 II and A7 IV. I do mostly pictures stills. I would rate
1) A1 - the best.
2) A9 II
3) A7r IV-A
4) A IV
Why? depends how you use? A1 is all in one. A9 II you will never miss the shot, over 95% all super sharp full focus pictures. A7R IV-A is so so good for landscape, magazine, weddings. NO AA filter is big time quality difference. A IV is ok, not too bad.
Fanfuckingtastic, thanks dude. Straight to the point, super helpful and made me laugh genuinely a few times! Great work, love it!
I have the A73 and R3. If I shoot at night, I use the A73...so much better at low light, but the R3 ain't bad. Great video. And I'm still deciding on the A74 or A1. Do I really need 4k 120fps with 50 mps??? Not sure.
the A7iv is rated a full stop lower AF sensitivity, same as the A7siii, and you can really feel it ISO 6400 levels. The A9 is also significantly better even if rated the same as the A7iii? I’ll be reviewing the A1 soon but prioritizing the tamron 35-150 because it’s so hot right now.
@@CharlieVN I also owned an A9, but didn't need the burst shooting, so I traded it in. Definitely need to upgrade a video camera from my A6400. Just can't decide which one!!
Hello there, really enjoyed your videos, subscribed :) one question from 10+ year canon DSLR user, now have the 5d3, think jumping the boat to Sony, still can not decide which one I should get, the a74 or a7r4. 90% pictures from travel and kids/family portraits, thanx!
thanks, I also started with canon 16 or 17 odd years ago, time flies. I would get the A7iv for a few reasons. 60+mp files are massive. the UI change is a big one, remember the AF change in the 5D2->5D3? sort of like that in terms of sony menus and operations. Once you touched the 5D3 it was near impossible to go back to 5D2 right? The R4 firmware is sort of like a refreshed 4x of the R series. The A7iv is something new, built from ground up. A lot of small changes add up to a major revision, and the ui is completely new. The A7's revolutionized eye AF, but there's more to a camera than a really neat feature.
@@CharlieVN woow, thank you so much for such quick reply! I indeed remember the 5d2 and 5d3 upgrade for sure! Hahaha, ok, I will listen to you advise and wait for the brand new a74, again, appreciate all the advices!
I have a 6500, looking for an upgrade, i do macros and wildlife. The a7IV is the way to go?
Already own the a7riv, so the a7iv will be the second camera, especially for wildlife and daily/street images.
anyone know which is good for car photography and night photos?
Thank you!
You bet!
Really cool video, but you didn't really cover which camera is best for wildlife photography + travel photography, which is what I am most interested in! I have the A7iii currently
a7iv
Sell a7iii then updrage for a7iv, buy another a7riv for specific purposes.
Fun and informative
Over 60 megapixel… great! Now I can full up my hard drive in just 2 photoshoots! 👍
What lens is good to pair up with 7IV, SIGMA 14-24 f2.8 or Sony 14 mm f2.8?
it'll be a while before I can get my hands on those unfortunately, like my 24mm series, I'm working on a 35mm series and still working on my standard zoom series.... if I drop the production quality, I can definitely make my lens videos faster....... but then no one would watch, and not sure I could live with myself 😅
Would you comment on which camera to get for photographing my own oil paintings to make reproductions from...I am a beginner but want the great photos for detail.
lowest price would be the A7rii, then the A7riii with pixel shift, then A7riv with pixel shift. the Riii and Riv are in a different league when it comes to controlled shooting. extremely high resolutions, like 100-240mp from what I recall.
I’d really like to have 61mpx, such detail is intoxicating
Read sooooo many lens comparisons for the RIV, lots of conflicting info from what ive seen
Curious to hear your opinion…
What lenses are generally the best for the RIV?
Sony 20 mm 1.8.
Voigtländer 50 mm apo.
Sony 85 mm 1.8.
@@christiansvideos4863 Sony 50mm GM
Great video. I have the 7R4 and was struggling with softer photos compared to my A6400 to the point that I thought there is something wrong with the camera which the service center checked out wasn't so. Finally sat down and worked through the physics which made sense. 3 times the pixels in the same space compared to a 20-24mp FF can only mean smaller pixels. Smaller pixels can only mean less light falling on it and that should explain the higher noise. Less light also mean the AF will suffer. On softer images, I would attribute it to neighbouring pixels picking up the image due to the small movements. Unlike larger pixels which wouldn't matter as the movement is still kept within the same pixel.
Shoot at higher shutter speeds to eliminate motion blur and make sure ibis is in use. For noise shoot at iso 50. Best of luck this worked for me.
@@minibuns5397 . Yes, but when you are under a heavy tree canopy (bird photography) that makes mid-day look like dusk, high iso and low shutter speed are your only options.
Is there a comparison with both in low light?
I want the high res for cropping and extra reach with apsc mode.
Can't import raw photos into lightroom 11 with my A7 IV it's beacause it's new?
Did they fix that
What’s the difference between Sony A7RIV and A7RIVa?
Im planning to buy my second camera i have my first camera is a7r3 and i want to upgrade to a7r4 im a dedicated street photographer and portrait shooter too what do you recommend for me tnx sir
Same here. Any updates?
Sony has just released the A7R5. So, it has me thinking about camera bodies. I currently shoot an A7R4 and an A7R3. I believe I'll sell my A7R3 and buy another A7R4. But, both are great values right now.
indeed, it is a great value
im part of the action camera crew.
Which should I buy? Well, I’m staying with my A7 III for now, I suppose that my next upgrade will be A7 V ;-)
is it have skin soft mode for video ???
yes
finally the video I've been waiting for
Hello Mr. Bloom. what did u choose then? And why?
@@Neil_Hasnat I preordered the a7iv. I don’t like the noise that comes with 61 megapixels that o don’t need. The a7iv was always the winner I was just considering it because it’s available now and I have been itching to grab a replacement ever since I sold my a7riii. Here I won’t like my impatience get the best of me.
@@ronaldllhaleyjr I was going to buy z6ii on 8th November. I mean yesterday. But I changed my plan only because of autofocus. But I have to wait until end of November. Because in Bangladesh Sony hasn't release it yet
@@Neil_Hasnat I gotcha. Yea we have to wait here as well. I think after December 30th.
Great review my Asian brother from another mother
the math on the printing size was harsh, yes, you don't have the double in width, since if you had the double width, you'd have a image size of 4 times more (keeping the same aspect ration)
Yes, you can print almost 2 times, in AREA, not in width.
the print topic can get sticky, hard to gauge what is acceptable. I did a large print for someone a while back before high resolution existed, a whopping 46” and they were happy as can be. I knew in my heart that there are levels of personal satisfaction that do not align. on the flip side, there must be a way to cheat the system. if you ever see a work done by Peter lik, it is shocking. 100” print pin sharp to the very last detail. I’m not sure how it’s even possible, you can walk up to these exhibits with a magnifying glass……. something I used to strive for….. and tossed in the towel.
I have the 7R iv and i am disappointed because of the bad low light performance. i do have a f/2.8 zoom lense, so that shouldn't be the issue. It produces a lot of noise with low light, compared to for example Canon EOS 6D Mark II
well, it's 60mp, and at the pixel level, it would look horrible, however if you downsample to 20mp, it should outperform the 6D ii or any earlier generation canon. You're never going to get an ultra clean image at the pixel level because a magnified view will show less of the sensor being used, you can check it out here: www.dpreview.com/reviews/image-comparison/fullscreen?attr18=lowlight&attr13_0=nikon_z9&attr13_1=nikon_z7ii&attr13_2=sony_a7riv&attr13_3=canon_eos6dmkii&attr15_0=raw&attr15_1=raw&attr15_2=raw&attr15_3=raw&attr16_0=12800&attr16_1=12800&attr16_2=12800&attr16_3=12800&attr126_0=1&attr126_1=1&attr126_2=1&attr126_3=1&normalization=compare&widget=845&x=-0.01835905&y=0.280064374 . You need a bigger sensor if you want ultra good high ISO, 35mm has been nearing its limit for some time now. Take note that the color preservation at high ISO's is probably a bigger factor than pure noise.

Still with my A7r2 and happy ~
Nostalgia, the camera that started it all....
Me too, but I get my A7IV soon!
You are hilarious sir!
Great vid!
thank you 🙌🙌
The RX100 VA and / or VII :D
In Russia now A7RIV is about 400$ cheaper than A7IV. So I think which is better in this situation. For the same price I would prefer the A7IV.
"A lower resolution photo in focus is better than a higher resolution photo out of focus" - that line right there instantly made me make my decision on which to get. Awesome comparison, thanks!
All my A7RIVA shots are in-focus. His point was to shoot with greater stability and shutter speed as your shooting flaws will reveal themselves. That still applies to the A7IV 33MP to some extent, if you're coming from 20MP or 24MP detail.
I ordered A7IV as a first time FF user.
good afternoon
Could you advise me for bird photography, which of these two cameras is better? I would appreciate your answer
R4 because bird shots usually don't fill up the whole frame so you can crop in and still have plenty of file to work with. I had the 24 MP A9 and then switched to the R4 the difference in detail was mind blowing. I missed the speed of the A9 so I have the A1 now as well. But the 2 A7's shoot at the same speed so get the R4.
Where do you get the mark for? as far as I know there is no mark III or Mark IV it is just III or IV
it’s in the model name ILCE-7M3
good job sneaking in the evergreen
Looking to get my first full frame camera. It's sure confusing lol
if you can get the A7iv on sale, get that, and be done with it. A year later and it's still amazing.
@@CharlieVN some seem to complain about Sonys color. I do sports and music events mostly.
@@TonysTubeSite I was one of those people. Shot professionally with Sony for a few years and hated the colors (even though I shoot raw, I still had to really work files to get the colors sorted). But the A74 is much better to me than the 3 color-wise. Especially for skin tones. They're really working on color science. When I was Canon, I loved the skin tones but lost so many shots to poor focusing. Sony much more keepers, just longer working files..there's always a trade-off somewhere.
61MP? A7R4
I shoot with A7IV and will keep on doing so (I think).
For me the question would rather be... A7mk4 vs A7r3.
I have one on that ua-cam.com/video/z-_OPRujJlE/v-deo.html
You need more subs brother. Let me help you out with that.
Honestly both cameras are pretty even. I think it simply comes down to of you want to shoot videos. If so get the a7IV if u could careless about video go with a7riv all day
a7iv is quite good for a hybrid $2500 camera. Yeah, I wish it had a better LCD, better stablization, rolling shutter, and no crop in 4k 60. But it's still the best option for that price right now.
i don’t know, it’s pretty much no difference from the a7iii
Are the colors on the A7IV better than the A7RIV's? I feel like the A7riv has amazing color science. What do you guys think?
Google one thing and you will get the answer, A7R IV-A is way better, superiour in pictures point of view, way sharp, way vibrant because it doesn't have AA Filter
@@fivestardallas985 A7 IV also doesnt have AA filter lol
@@dreamflight5637 wait it doesnt?
@@jarrellelee No, it does NOT have AA filter :)
@@dreamflight5637 Where did you find that info?
I got my a7Riv on a 1 thousand dllr discount so I guess I got really lucky
the only thing holding me back from buying the a7r4 is the bad low light performance
check out 07:30 for that discussion
a7iv will be my a7riv sidekick
Youˋre funny:D
