Jason is very fortunate to be able to own and shoot all three of these cameras and has done so extensively with all of them since there release dates. Jason was one of the pioneers of the Sony mirrorless system when it came out years ago and his experience with these cameras gives him insight that hopefully helps people out there looking to make the best purchasing decision.

The timing of this video coincides with the recent price reductions in the Sony A9 and the Sony A7Riii which brings all three cameras closer in price than ever before. Coupled with the recent firmware updates for these cameras it can get difficult to know which one is best for you.

This video does not include the Sony A7Sii because it is the older design for the Sony full frame lineup. This camera does not compete with the others due to the older battery, older design, single card slot etc.

In this video Jason gives examples for all three cameras illustrating his points by using stills and video clips that he's taken all over the world with this cameras. Primary subjects include:

*Key Genres for each camera
*Price
*Speed
*Shutter
*ISO
*Resolution
*File Handling
*Ergonomics
*Features

After watching this video I came to the conclusion that I need all three of these Sony cameras. Especially the A9.

After a year of owning my A7III (after owning a A7II) I completely agree with everything shared here. While the A9 is my dream camera, my A7III has been more than I could have hoped it to be. Very happy to hear you and Sony are good. Thank you, Jason!

Thanks Jason. I jumped and bought the A9 when I recently got the $500 Sony instant rebate and $500 Sony trade-in rebate (same as the now $1000 off). I traded in my A7III and A6500 to bring the price down to few hundred dollars USD to get the A9. I have NO regrets, it was the move to make. The A9 is at a different level of performance and the best camera I have ever used in my 40+ years of pro career (including using the best from Nikon, Canon and Leica). I have already posted some shots as a member in your facebook group that I might NOT have gotten without having the A9. This video is perfectly timed. FYI, I also have an A7RIII. Cheers

This type of review is so non BS. Straight to the point and no verbose crap I find from other comparison reviews. Thx man

Thanks for making this video, Jason. It was the deciding factor in me keeping my a9 instead of switching to the A7rIII for my trip to Botswana. I print at 50”x30”, and thought I could really use the extra resolution. But your video convinced me that I would lose far more than I would from that switch. I have had my a9 for 2 years to the day (purchased on April 21, 2017) and it has been the most mind blowing object I have ever owned, especially in combination with my 16-35mm/2.8 GM. I’m sticking with the a9 for the long haul.Just added a 100-400mm GM to the kit for Botswana. Thanks.

A9 with FW5.0 raises the number of contrast AF points from 25 to 425, so same as A7III.

A9 Price drop because of A9ii imminent announcement! all three are amazing, for the money the a7iii is a beast

[lastfrontier]

Thank you for the video! I feel really confident in choosing the A9 now. I rented it once and was blown away, but this video confirms my thoughts.

[DutchAussieProductions]

Thanks for the video Jason. This is by far the best Sony camera video I have ever seen. Your photos and videos are amazing.

[thundian]

Great video, I really like your presentation, no blah, blah, just real stuff only! I was using A7r3 and A73, sold A73 yesterday and placed an order for A9, it's back ordered for about 7-14 days, can't wait!

[Bodywern]

This must be one of the most informative and user-friendly videos I have ever seen. Thank you!

[timryan]

Thanks again Jason, this is the best video out there explaining the REAL differences in these platforms. Very helpful. Love your work and your attitude.

[TrevorMcGrathPhotography]

Love every second of your stuff...I was sure you were going to cry by the end of this video. Over recent videos, you have been shooting with other systems (and that's great) but you have SONY in your heart and are only happy with sony in your hand.

I made the switch just three months ago from Canon and it has rejuvenated my passion for photography in SO many ways.

[BretBihler]

Thanks for this review. Because of your videos about 1.5 yrs. ago I switched from Canon to Sony, and got the 7RIII and love it, as well as 3 GM lens. Love your vids. Keep up the incredible work.... Also because of you I purchased a Roto Light Neo II system!

[didimiorios]

Greetings Jason from Puerto Rico. Extraordinary comparison between the 3 best cameras. I have the A6500 and I love it. Thank you for helping me in the discovery of my next camera to buy. I am fascinated by your photos.

[ningsun]

As always Jason, you are the best of all, straight shooter, on the point, no BS. Great artist, educator, of course best pianist:); but above all, you are a great guy with incredible humanity. People don’t understand, you watch the guy’s video, only because you like the guy’s persona! Period.

[JCANPetros]

Great job as usual Jason! Good balance of explanation and samples.

[hwirtwirt]

I really enjoy bird and wildlife photography and the most striking, sharp and vibrant images I've see over the past year or so come form the Sony A9. It's outrageously good at capturing images that no other camera can match. A combination of speed, focusing accuracy and color that is just unmatched.

I'm using a7 and a6000. In next week a7 will come with me to wedding session.
All best from Poland!

well Jason I invested in the A-9 two days ago and finally had time to upload the 5 upgrade version...MINDBLOWING tracking and I haven't even played with it yet...thanks for the reviews and comparisons between cameras...will continue using the A7Rii for landscapes and deal with the battery life that will work for its needs ...thrilled to have DECENT battery life coming from Nikon D700-750 ...so that's certainly a win...oh I can go on and on but time will tell...thanks again ...cant wait to capture my subjects without worrying about focus issues...
