DPReview TV: Panasonic S1R vs. Nikon Z7 vs. Sony a7R III

This week Chris and Jordan do a side-by-side comparison between three high resolution mirrorless cameras: the Panasonic S1R, Nikon Z7, and Sony a7R III to see how they stack up. Which one is right for you?

YouTube content creators take note: These guys know how to add "flavor" to dry content. They lead into each scene with some goofiness and are constantly switching up environments and composition. Much better than the standard "guy at his desk holding a camera."

The moment Jordan is not filming everything goes out of focus.


YOU HAVE ONE JOB CHRIS!

I'm more impressed by the fact that you still use the GH5 even with the FF cameras out in the market today.

Such a productivity beast of a camera..

How about a comparison between middle-resolution mirrorless cameras: Sony A7III vs Panasonic S1 vs Nikon Z6? :-)

You're my favorite Disney princess.

Happy Birthday Jordan! Always enjoy the videos!

[lenneavy]

Great video, as always! I hope to see S1 vs. Z6 vs. a7III soon.

The S1R form factor is my favorite...built like a TANK!

I was today years old when I learned that the screen on my S1 would flip out sideways when in portrait mode!
I've owned the camera for 4 months!

Happy birthday, Jordan!! Can't believe I didn't notice the single card slot on the Z7. WHO KNEW?!

[RealphotographyAu]

when the z7 comes third in image quality, you gotta put in a caveat that there is more image quality in any of them than you can ever hope to use. Its like comparing 3 top F1 drivers: you can say one is better than the other, but any of them are insanely amazing.

While Chris is always all layered up with a jacket, Jordan is at times hardcore Canadian in a t-shirt on this fine -- -- Calgary spring day. 😎

It is incredible that a body from 2 years ago still keep on top of the list against its rivals in Image quality, battery life, AF!, general speed, and many other points.
Good job Sony with the A7r3.

[ChrisProuse]

Really enjoyed this - great work and happy birthday Jordan!! :)

That bridge behind you in the intro, vaguely familiar like from a dream... I can't see for sure, there was a particular sign that was "artistrized" but other such things have been "cleaned".

:)

A great and unbiased reviews of these cameras. The pedigree of the Sony platform is more mature than the other two, but it looks like the Panasonic platform has the most momentum. These are somewhat arbitrary words. And in the end, it all depends on the "artist" to choose the right tool. Thanks for giving us a very thought-provoking overview!

Personal opinion: it is great video and great comparison. But so far none of the so-called comparison has mentioned much about manual focusing, which is niche but very important for old school photographers like me... I did a comparison with my friends in studio and in field between S1R, A7Riii, Z7, X1R, M240, M10, A9, EOS R, X1D and GFX, among which A9/A7Riii outperformanced every other camera for it has the best image quality of liveview, best accuracy of peak display, and best frame rate when enlarging. I would say for any manual focusing lovers Sony is still the very best choice in terms of shooting experience, not to say it has the first class image quality as well.

Great review! Love the fun bicycle theme used as a “vehicle” for this episode.

Had a7riii and actually went to z6 for Ergos and smaller files sizes. Z mount lenses are very nice as well

[danlingphoto]

Great review. One thing getting largely overlooked is that as a system, the Nikon Z7 with 14-30 f4 S, 24-70 f4 S and 70-200 f4 F is BY FAR the smallest and lightest super-high IQ landscape kit available.

6:35 - Film me like one of your French Canadians!


Definately more reclined reviewing, please.
