Which one do you think is the best???? I’m definitely curious to try the a7c II more.
My guess was right! And, I think, for me, the A7C II would be best out of the two, but still not sure it will top my A7s III !
I am more and more into the a7s3
Have you tried the Sony ZV-E1? I believe it is much better for UA-cam content than the 7CII. I’ve used to make wedding and it is amazing the image quality
@@salvadorhierrorondan559video content is the priority for ZV line.
A7S3 is still best. The moiré in the green hoodie is a 100% deal breaker
That commercial in between is one of the most brutal ad spots I’ve ever seen on a video🤦♂️ it’s like the video gets hijacked
12:41 perfectly encapsulates why it doesn't matter which camera you buy. The end user can never tell the difference.
As the whole world begins to use AI and other tools. So too will your customers. They are brighter and sharper than you think. They can tell. And it translates immediately into an overall impression. if you fluff 1080p today it it can detract from any quality perception of brand.
Sony colour spaces really pop for skin tone now. I was also impressed by the absolute clarity of this video in low light conditions. Im waking up to Sony now, thank you. A7c II at the top of my shopping list.
I own an A7SIII and an A7IV right now for video work. The SIII isn’t going anywhere-it’s basically the messiah of video cameras. The SII became legendary when it came out, and the SIII not only lived up to expectations of a successor, it exceeded them in some ways. A landmark of technology and definitely staying in my arsenal for years to come. I don’t like taking photos with it though, and that’s mostly because of the noise levels.
The A7IV is a different story. When I bought it, I wanted a hybrid shooter that can do great video and great photo. Problem is, the applications where I need a good B-cam for recording are long form (wedding ceremonies), and for whatever reason, the A7IV suffers from just enough thermal runaway that it’s not really usable in those scenarios. Since I’m starting to do more photo stuff recently anyway, I’ve really been digging my A7IV as an everyday/photo camera. But I miss the compactness of the A6300s that I started out with several years back (I sold one, but still keep another kicking around with a few lenses). I used my A6300 for a proper gig at the start of this year, and its compactness was critical for my ability to carry it into a place that did not allow “professional” photography. So I’m contemplating selling off or trading in my A7IV to spring for the A7CR. If my B-cam is going to be good for photos, I want something LEAGUES better than any phone camera out there, and the A7CR is literally the best you can get.
Oh, and I’ll probably get silver, because I love the idea of my photo camera having a slightly different aesthetic from my black A7SIII.
The A7siii combined with the new 16-35 II is a killer combo. I recently got the A7siii and its gonna still be a work horse years to come. New cameras are great, but love the A7siii.
6:12 The base ISOs on the A7III and FX3 are not the same. Yes, it is 640 on the A7III but it's 800 on the FX3.
Yeah. Misinformation
A7siii is what we’re sticking with for a while likely. These new cameras are great, but there’s not really any major advantage for a working professional shooting content for clients 😅
What about the fact that it's over sharpened 4k? How about zv-e1 which is seemingly the same camera but cheaper? Thanks.
@@PuReXtremeGaming The ZV-e1 is overheats like crazy. It's not reliable for professionals.
The Sony A7CR is something I've been dying for since I got the first A7C. Sony has the best cameras over everyone. I've tried Fujifilm and Canon but the color and look just never sat with me. I look the more cinematic look Sony delivers. So excited! God I'm going to be broke this fall. Apple event next month 😭
I literally bought a fx3 4 hours before this announcement by sony and had a scare thinking if i made the wrong choice. But after watching a few reviews, even with all these updates; My choice would still be the Fx3 for my video work.
same 😂😂
same!
100% I'm in the market for an FX3 and waiting to see if any black friday deals come up. None of the recent camera announcements are changing my mind. For the type of work that I do there's just nothing else on the market that ticks all my boxes.
It’s clickbait. The reason I watched it , glad to see it’s not better
This was a great example of a video guy giving his thoughts on photography 😅
9:39 Brother in Davinci Resolve you need to right click on the video clip and optimize media and then you’ll play smooth! Been editing on resolve on a M2 Max and had the same issue. I was like bro why my computer is an absolute unit
Best intro ever! Thoroughly enjoyed the punching of the boxes.
Also I’m cool with seeing you announce it rather than Sony this video is already a more interesting way to see it announced. Notification squad!
🙏🏻 😊
@@mattih great video I’m selling my A7III but I already have the A7IV so I’m good for now but in the future if I finally start making money with photography. I’ll probably pick up an A7CII
Please make comparison video comparison a7cii vs a6700 for hybrid shooters.
1. Evf
2. Lcd
3. 4k crop no crop
4. Lens options, how to use full frame gm lenses on apsc camera
Wait.... I thought you didnt want to be a youtuber?
Didn’t want to be. Want money money 😂
Such a liar
Don’t be a hater!
@@TuckerPearce No hate here, his last video was titled "I dont want to be a youtuber". Just making an observation.
I think if you watched the video you would understand what he means.
I was trying to decide between the A7CII & A7CR and I chose the ZV-E1 in White. Cheers!
After years I bought the A 6700. And it ist a monster. Knunderstnd why sone fullframe fanboys are jealous. I had to decide to go with the FX 30 or A6700. The last one is more versatile and it works damned good. An absolute game changer.
Incredible cams! A6700 is my choice for a single card slot cam 👌 For vid, FX30 or FX3 all the way
What about for hybrid use?
i'm choosing the A6700 too. i compared with the FX30 and, for a hybrid camera, decided the A6700.
but, with the A7C's Family coming, i'm thinking again hahaha.
Hybrid use A6700 or A7IV IMO. Just depends if you need full frame. I have the A7IV personally and shoot 50/50 photo/video.@@jaymills1720
I take pictures with my 7Siii along with video and it takes great photos for what I want to use it for. I'd consider the 7C for a more compact travel camera. The Siii brings a lot of attention.
I'd be totally unsurprised if we literally have to wait 5 years for the next major sensor upgrade with the A7SIV/FX3II. Just like it took 5 years to get the current model it was such a huge quantum leap forward that it will take equally as long or longer to get the same jump in performance. But look how it's completely changed the game for us, every single camera now has 10 bit and is so much more capable than before. The trickle down effect has enabled me to get a7siii performance with the ZV-E1 for $1600 usd refurbished. That's f*king brilliant.
FX3II 6K resolution will come mid 2025🤙🏾
I miss the oldschool matti, reviewing camera🎉 thanks to comeback ❤
I absolutely love this camera for its looks and compact size
What is it with the A7siii man, I just don’t understand how it can just continue to be the king
I really appreciate how you aren’t playing into the “hype” that new things were just released. This really felt like a genuine review of your thoughts. Such a breath of fresh air!!
Oh! I can finally get something similar to a Leica Q2 that doesn't cost stupidly a lot of money Great video as always Matti!
By the way...the moire of the A7C II is wild 6:28
They all seemed to moire at different times 😂
@mattih Oh yeah, I just noticed it now. Did you film the test footage in S-Log3 with the sharpening all the way down?
@@mattih Did the A7Siii moire as well? Wondered if that was from downsampling the 33mpx on the 7cii or maybe sharpening / profiles ?
That intro, had to rewatch it a few times 👊🏻
Looking too buy a camera for Content Creation jobs for brands, music artists and more...need a solid hybrid camera which performs well in all situations for video (low light etc...) but also want the option to be able to shoot photos on it as well for things such as cover images, carousels for IG...what would you recommend? Currently torn between the A7Cii and the ZV-E1...At the moment I'm leaning towards the A7Cii because it has a view finder and if I get some wedding gigs this may be super helpful when capturing photos....
Would love to hears thoughts opinions or even another camera option which may work better for that hybrid set up!
Any chance we can download some of the raw footage you shot? I don’t notice a huge difference here on UA-cam but I’d like to see if the line skipping of the a7cr is noticeably worse than the oversampled a7cii footage
Now that the A9III is out with global shutter, what I would like to see is a 45-50 megapixel global shutter with oversampled 4k 24p, 60p, 120p in the FX3 body with open gate. It will be awhile before anyone do anything like that, but hopefully the future will come sooner than later. But maybe by then 8k is the norm and we would prefer oversampled 8k 24p, 60p, 120p from 12k. So FX3 is good for now. Though the Burano seems really interesting though, apart from it not being global shutter. I mean, 2x CF express type B? Internal ND with Inbody stabilization? Ai autofocus? Seems like what most of us are looking for, put all that in the fx3 body and put a global shutter and charge FX3 price for it. Let's see what the future brings.
Is this a sign to buy a new camera?
How well does the a7cii color match with fx30? and is the stabilization on the a7cii better than the fx30? I feel like the fx30 stabilization sucks.
Who else saw the slight cut at the beginning when he was punching the boxes? 😂
Biggest thing to consider is at this point with the base model full frames coming in the same performance to the a7siii can only mean the a7siv is round the corner as the next release in spring 2024?
Hey Matti - What did you use to film the desk shot where you were looking at the laptop? 06:20 seems like it is hunting for focus like crazy. It reminds me of when we used to use a GH5.
OK so this is 5 months old and there's 300 comments I haven't read so maybe someone answered this question for you. But in DaVinci, with effects like that you have to tell it you want it to render to the cache live by going to the Playback menu, Render Cache, and switching it to Smart. You can also sort fudge your playback resolution by reducing the timeline resolution during your edit then just bumping it back up for export.
Still rocking my original a7c and loving it! Sure these new cameras are "better" but I think most cameras are "good enough" these days.
Same! 💪🏼
Cool man! When comparing the performance at ISO 3200 you also have to look at dynamic range. A7SIII is outperforming the two new cameras when it comes to dynamic range at high ISO's (It looks like)
Nice to see the a7s3 is still a reeeally good option, if not the best option. Thanks for the comparison.
Kinda wild that it’s still the best 😂
Re: the megapixel comparison, to be fair a closeup portrait shot wide open is gonna show the megapixel difference less than almost any other type of photo. And of course the beauty of the 60mp sensor is that you can crop in 2x on a photo and STILL have more detail than the a7S.
The 10 bit update seems nice. Massive shame they didn’t update the EVF. The EVF has always been my biggest gripe with owning my a7c
Love the 10 bit update - but I lean the other way on the EVF. I wish they'd have just removed it completely
They actually *have* put in a new EVF, even though it doesn’t look like it at first glance. But the "window" if you will is a tad wider, and the actual screen is said to be larger as well. Acodring to the technical specs, the magnification and eye point have increased, both of which are very good things IMO.
Every modell has its limitations so a new marketing upgrade cycle can start and we can complain and applaud. Just know that😉
These are so sick!
Everyone tell me how I'm using Da Vinci wrong!? Is it just that I was using the "cut" tab rather than the "edit" tab?
Another great vid Matti, FX3 FTW
Last time I tried, the free Davinci Resolve is significantly slower than the full Studio version because it lacks some hardware decoding features.
Dude, congratulations on your next big step. 🤩
btw please don't leave us dry in dessert. Just post something like a vlog once in a month or quarter
I knew it was gonna be those! Man I wish Sony could lend me them to review them! I need a travel friendly good video and photo camera than my a7siii and a7iv haha
They are pretty sick!
The evolution of cameras and UA-cam. I remember when you were using the Canon 6D mkii then the bigger heavier 1DX then a small Sony FX3. Now the debate between these cameras 😊
What?!?! Oh man. When I can afford this on my indie income I want this!
Just more great cameras for us 😊
That magic opening...how did you do that???
You told that you leave youtube man :) nice to see you here
So is the a7c II the same as the a7iv but with the new ai and a7c body and maybe a better processor? not sure. looking at the a7iv though for hybrid use.
Thank you so much for this video. I've been looking to switch systems from Nikon to Sony and planning to do it by the end of the year. Been leaning on getting A7CII or A7CR and I must say that this helped me decide more on which one to pick.
Now, I just need to save for the expensive full system switch 😅
I just bought the Sony a7iv a week ago as my first camera ever. Should I send it back and get sony a7cii or keep it?
I´m just mad the a7IV is literally the only camera with 4k60 crop :( please SONY!!!! just give us that, I beg
For DaVinci smoother playback generate optimised media and will play back smooth
4:02 start here for what's up in 7 seconds. This video could be summed up, for me, in that 7 seconds. :) But the whole video was great, thanks so much for doing this!
and for me that's the a7siii, the skin tons and just overall vibe feels best. even up to 4:43 where you say the a7cii is more detailed, but in this particular frame I'm seeing the a7siii is better focused on the eye making it appear more detailed. And anymore detail than that might be excessive, not look as natural, and cause moire even? so still to this point the a7siii feels better to me. You say the a7siii has more of a green tint but on my monitor it looks significantly warmer than the other two. But, for some reason I prefer that look and when I ask others they often prefer something totally different. So, it would be interesting to actually play with these assets, like download a super short clip of them.
5:40 I feel like the two a7c look basically the same and still feel like the a7siii has a deeper color expression that is more pleasant and interesting and less video feeling.
almost like you have a nicer tan/complexion in the a7siii
Then at 5:42 where you "go with a7cii" i see more of your facial hair on the a7siii and still the image on the as7siii looks better even moving forward 6:40 where the a7siii for a second might have looked more green for a second but then I realized it might be your facial hair and through this part the white balance on the a7c's or the color was all over the place. The a7siii held it together color wise through that part. What was going on there 6:28 to about 6:40
good points on the eye focus and the low light for the a7cii... well but then at 11:36 when you walk up to your face, the a7siii seems to be doing just fine on eye focus, so it must really be as you said, when you're as close as possible when that will matter... I still feel like the a7siii looks better; better contrast, doesn't feel overexposed/washed out/videoish like the a7c's that are more pinkish and less moody.
Does the 4K60 still forces you into the APS-C mode like in the A7IV?
Yes, it does
This was a bit early than the announcement video but we're not complaining! Haha. :)
Great comparison! It seems FX3, A7SIII and ZV-E1 still perform better on filming.
insane that sony still hasn't nailed the perfect camera formula
They have but they won’t make it because if that camera came out then no one would by there other cameras. You gotta give and take with each camera to keep people coming back
@@Gavinnationsi think sony can come up with number where realsing that camera would make sense
@@Zetraxes they just drip feed enough to keep people talking you know they've had the formula for years its obvious features are intentionally overlapped just slight enough to make you need something else or be 99% happy so that 1% can shine in another body and you buy more. At this point its science and human psychology
@@BuiltInception i think that marketing strategy is overrated, you can simply eat the entire market share if you just stuff all in one package the best example for that is the shure sm7b
@@Zetraxes I agree. It’s extremely annoying but not a single company has done no frills but maybe Fuji even though their cameras are only crop sensors. Maybe one day soon. We need heavy hitting releases again like the R5 and a7siii those one off cameras that push boundaries instead of minimal change recycled spec cameras.
Thanks for the tests! The a7cR seems like an odd camera to make.
Yea just not for me. I guess trying to battle Leica Q3???
@@mattih yeah maybee
You had an entire spiel of your journey through film making and your thoughts on thinking you wanted to do different things. Why are so many people missing the point of your last video 😂 also, this might finally be the B cam for my a7s3
I could swear I just watched a video of some UA-camr talking about how doing gear reviews wasn't their thing because they were a filmmaker or something to that effect... hmm
I think it's excellent camera
Someone please help. I shoot with Canon 5d mark iv.... I am looking to add camera. I need something for low light video and stills. I am leaning towards the sony a7cii... can 51000 iso give me a big difference from the 5dmark4 or do I have to goto fx3 102000 to shoot in low light and give up still quality? Thanks
thank you for this video it's a great job it is unbelievable but a7 s3 it's still one of the best
The A7c 2 is a great option for everyday carry
Can you put an Arca Swiss plate on the add on grip?
A7cii looks interesting, but are specs a downgrade from 6700? Guess next will be looking for comparison video. 6700 has 4k 120 lol but only rubbish 5stop ibis
you dont drop and drag, you drag and drop 😂😂
I'm still using the A7SIII. Not enough of a leap in advancement with the new cameras coming out to justify a new purchase.
I think if u add a cage or some type of extra weight to the a7cii to make it a bit heavier I bet the stabilization gets better 👍 it will help with any micro jitters u get with a light camera
So are you back to being a UA-camr now?
yeah my Z cam is still a W (best investment ever ifykyk)
SUPER.!!!!!! SOON I WILL MAKE MY REVIEW
Amazing video! But honestly, from this comparison I got to disagree and say a7cR looks the best for video. The colors are way better than other two, and while it definitely is less sharp, it looks more "cinematic". Movies are not supposed to be super sharp, unless you want a specific look.
the A7C and CR looks extrem good in silver, like a Fuji X1100 .. :)
If only you could record externally open gate like the lumix s5/S5ii, then the a7cii would be a great camera to transition to into the Sony system
Open Gate is pretty awesome. Worth consideration when comparing cameras for sure.
To the editor, you're probably rendering the scene in full resolution I think there's a way to reduce the visual res or the debayering algo on your live view. Im not saying reduce your output res, its that small box you watch on thats rendering at full res and causes the slow I think
a7c 2 better than the fx3 in terms of autofocus? have they said when they will start shipping? any idea if you can add the audio XLR mount to it?
A7siii4ever
Interesting! Thanks for sharing it. ✌️
the a7c ii sensor can't be closed like a7iv? and is there a weather seal like a7iv?
and the memory can use cf express?
A7cii doesn't support type A card for 600mbps slog3 shoot smoothly. This is the biggest issue of this model.
Can you make a Short film with the Sony A7cR?
I don’t have it anymore. Also wouldn’t choose to. I’d much rather do any video on the a7cII
True! that is right! Also amazing video as always! @@mattih
Would you buy the 7CII or the Panasonic S5 IIx??
I would get a C-70😂
Great video. Loved this comparison, thank you!
I would only get it because of the look, because it looks similar to the fuji X100 V. I am looking for a successor for my 5D MK III, but since there is only 1 card slot and the small viewfinder, which would certainly bother me, since I always look through the viewfinder, there was no digital viewfinder.
but the extremely good ai autofocus is already a very good selling point. maybe the Alpha IV is the better successor, even if it doesn't look as good and the autofocus is worse
anyway good video :)
Really enjoy your content. Very informative.
awww i wish i'm a SONY filmmaker ... but I've been in love with FUJIFILM for years now. Still enjoy this a lot though Matti!
Surely they could put out a software update for the A7sii??
Can you stick a 20-70mm on it and let me know if it's okay to hold and fingers not really hitting the lens?
show some love for the intro! that matchcut :D he said it: filmmaker first.
Hello Matti, are you related to Teppo?
Did you use a Promit filter on the images taken with 16-35?
FX3 is a camera that deserves 👑
Nah you trippen the 7cr pic looks better than the other 2 😂😂
I'm using a Sony a7cr What is the minimum and maximum noise suppression Iso when setting Flexible Iso, Cine S-Log3?
I have the zve1 for video. Getting the a7cr for photo 100%. It’s a mini a7rv. Incredible 🤩
A7c ii have dual iso, bro?
