Why not go Leica Q?

similar resolution sensor It's the same sensor. Some people value compact size a lot and the Sony rx1 series cameras are absolutely tiny. For a fixed lens camera the Q series are pretty big. You can build a smaller kit if you buy a sony A7CR and use a small prime (again, same sensor). I'm also guess

Suggestion about possible alternatives to the Olympus E-M1 III

Sure - buy a Sony A7C or A7CR. You'll pay out your nose for the camera and for lenses. FWIW I shoot everything from M43 (E-P7, OM-1.ii) to Medium Format (GFX100S) - in addition to FF and APS-C cameras. Larger sensors have an advantage - I'm not a fan of APS-C because it seems most manufactures inves

Leica guy shoots a Nikon.

It depends on the camera. Recent models have thinner glass on the sensor so the performance is better. The A7CR is faring better than my older Sonys for sure . I haven’t compared the CR to my A1ii yet but given what I’ve researched it should be on par with the CR. Also overall it seems to be more pr

Looking to get into the Leica system.

All the q3 did for me was to sell it so I can buy a better leica m240. Q3 is just a sony a7cr with worse autofocus, increased startup time, fixed lens, same sensor and worse battery life. So glad I got rid of it. Even image becomes jittery when focusing. Also white balance and auto exposure are off.

Return of the mac

It’s tough to answer, because price is such a huge factor - the difference between them is pretty significant (~700 USD more expensive for the a7CII even on sale). I had the A7CII and the A7CR at various points over the last few years - technically they’re better cameras than the S9, better AF, bett

Talk me out of a potential mistake.........

If you don’t do crazy sports and wildlife z7 that you have is really a good option. Just get good lenses to pair with it. Going from M1 to M2 is not really mind blowingSane with Sony basically, A7v shines in fast situations do you have any.I’m on z6iii and I have often look into A7cr. If only I coul

Sony A7CR + Lenses or Leica SL2-S + Lenses

I know this post is older but it just came up in my feed. Anyways, a little background; I didn't have an SL, but I did have a Leica M11, awesome camera, would still have it but I missed something about my Sony A7RIV that I had prior. So after 2 years with the Leica, I sold it and picked up my A7CR,

Eurasian Red Squirrels From Today

Thank you! It was a Sigma 135mm f1.4 on a Sony A7CR. The AF is magical on this combo. The first shot was probably a bit more than an APS-C crop (second one a bit less), but there's plenty of resolution on this sensor. Reddit is not doing it justice here. The depth of field can be a bit too extreme t

Genuinely impressed with my om5ii Vs a7iii photos.

Jestem posiadaczem równolegle dwóch systemów, oba rozbudowuję i modyfikuję od lat. Mam Sony Alpha (obecnie A7RM5 i A7CR) oraz M4/3 (obecnie OM-3, choć przez kilka lat głównie OM-1 MK1 i MK2). Nie potrafię się pogodzić z myślą o pozbyciu się jednego z tych systemów. Oba mają swoje dobre i złe strony
