Alpha 7C II

I use my camera almost exclusively for family life. 10 bit video, reliable human tracking and good stabilization are the main things to look for in a hybrid dad cam. I wouldn’t recommend an OM-5 or GX9 for your use, because they both lack 2 out of the 3 things I mentioned above. I’ve owned an E-M10

That body looks nice. Nikon really needs something that is a mix of a Sony A7C ii body and A7Siii capabilities.

Second this. Own A7CII and used a Fuji for a couple of days. Like the colors of the film recipes from Fuji but found it extreme unintuitive to use the Fuji and the AF on Sony far superior and also the lens options are really nice because you’ve got a lot of options. For me the more intuitive use and

Not sure if rage bait but the silver Sony A7C ii is awesome looking

Although I do now shoot with the Sony 40mm lens with the A7C II, I still like the 35mm because it just feels right for some reason. Depending on the scene and where I am, sometimes the 28 can feel good, too.

Hey mate, I’m in a similar situation to you, got an A7cii and a range of prime/zoom lenses. Just feel like the Sony is a machine, no questions on its capabilities, but as a hobbyist/casual shooter, I don’t enjoy using it. Feel guilty selling it though, because it’s a bloody great camera 😂 I’m going

Maybe Sony A7C(or A7C II) + Samyang/Viltrox lens around 28-35mm would be perfect for your needs?I upgraded from GX85 to Sony A7 III but I also considered A7C and I was able to hold them both and A7C was very comfortable in my (small) hands - slightly more comfortable than GX85 in my opinion. It won'

Great post at explaining the pros/cons of each! I have the A6700, but did seriously consider getting the A7CII, but went for the former in the end, especially as the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8, Sigma 56mm f/1.4 and Sony 70-350mm f/4.5-6.3 are so compact. I also have the Sony 15mm f/1.4 G, the Viltrox 25mm

Try a Sony A7C2 sometime. It doesn’t have the retro aesthetics, but it’s compact, full frame, has better autofocus than canon and there are some amazing, cheap lenses available. Do you even use manual settings besides aperture and exp comp? The dials look nice, but there’s rarely any need to use man

I actually exclusively shoot in manual since that is how I learned and I am at a point now that I prefer always having full control over my settings which is something I like about my M6 since I have all my settings mapped to different dials and it is fast for me. But honestly I just can’t be bother
