Interesting for sure. I'd like to see how it would work for air shows.

I imagine fine if you can live within the FPS. Even with the existing A7rii, no issues focusing on planes*

mostly shoot landing planes up close

Of coarse. Less than a week after I pull the trigger on the a9.

Rob.

I don't know what Canon is thinking these days. I've been YouTubing today checking out the different first impressions and the difference in the Nikon 850 and Sony A7 reviews and when compared to the 6DII, the difference is stark. Nikon, Sony reviews are all glowing and exciting. The Canon ones are, well, it's nice but...


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

It's only been a week. You can sell it right?

By the time someone buy the a7rIII, the A7III will be released that's include everything we need and be around ~2000-2500.

I could definitely sell it, I'm sure. Not sure if I'm up for taking the loss. I just sold my entire camera arsenal (Canon & Fuji) To purchase the Sony. I took a pretty big hit there. I'm sure I would come out somewhat ahead on the sale of the a9 and purchase or an R7iii but...

Quite a few pros and cons to think about on that decision.

if you use silent shutter a lot, dont think the a7riii will match up. I havent read about any fast readout, meaning light banding susceptible. Not the end of the world, but should be noted. Also, rolling shutter...

A9 is an awesome camera but ive been waiting for the a7r3 because of the expected higher pixel count along with a few other things. Now to check to see what its offering.

*looks at this*

*looks at the D850*

*looks at what Canon is doing*

*sighs*

Really i just dont care what canon is doing anymore. Time to go SONY. If sony puts in the same eye detect af in the a7r3 that they have in the a9 where third party lenses ie canon lenses can also use eye af then there is no reason for me to stay canon. It will just be a simple uprade to a different camera body as if i stayed with canon the whole time.

At some point the MP war has to end and I think 50MP is about as high as we'll see for FF in my opinion. Not surprised the A7RIII is using the same sensor as the A7RII...

1. Is the idea behind the eye detect AF that it will automatically find the eyes on a subject and always focus sharp? If so, is this a new feature to the Sony cameras or has it been available on other models? How effective is it? If doing portraits, do you even need to move a focus box around to identify the focus area?

2. Does the A7R3 share the same lenses as the A7SII?

Thanks.
