Morning! Argh tough debate! Would love to hear your thoughts :)
PS. Note at 00:36 made an edit mistake, this was taken with the built in b&w strong contrast profile not edited with the presets see around 09:00 again when I take the photo. I did however redit some raw into B&W too.

I"m quite happy with my Canon cameras and lenses, but I'll echo what other folks have commented here: It's perfectly normal to be loyal to a particular brand, but my feeling has always been, as long as the camera you're using does the job for you, that's the only thing that matters.

[ElectroMedia-csek]

I love my Sony a7c, it’s perfect in every way for video and I can take excellent pictures. It was just what I needed. I plan on using it for years to come. It pairs perfect with my Sony ZVE 10 lenses fit each other, vice versa

Was the banana @1:23 reference to Nikon?

[Flambient]

it seems that you are comparing two cameras but only using One camera brand Sony in front of you. I believe Canon is not getting a fair shake at this review. For example Canon is a Magnesium body camera with all weather seal including their lenses. You have only shown Sony going through rough weather but not Canon camera and lenses. To me by showing only Sony camera body and not Canon this makes the review visually skewed. In my opinion.

[bradjohnson]

Whoh, I can’t concentrate on the review.. the TikTok cuts are almost abusive causing visual whiplash.

[AnthonyGugliotta]

I've only owned Canon, but shot a bit with all systems. I keep going back to Canon because UI and body design works better for me! :)

Sony supporting 3rd party lenses: +20 points, Canon not supporting 3rd party lenses: -52 points

Since the launch of A7iii in 2018 and the introduction of third-party zoom lenses like Tamron 28-75, Sony has gradually become a reliable brand for working professionals in both stills and video. However, it has also become less fun to use (e.g. mediocre screen, handling, IBIS), less value-friendly (e.g. a7IV compared to a7III, expensive flagship A1 without many firmware updates), and less well-rounded (more and more product lines).

[snapswithdave]

Doesn’t really matter nowadays. I went with Sony because of the lens choices but camera bodies now are all really good!

Over 3 minutes in and we still haven’t gotten to the point…

The best camera is the one you have in your hands. :) We live in a time where any of the major brands produce stellar equipment. I've shot Canon, Nikon, and I'm on Sony now. All three have been great and all three have had minor issues. It comes down to your shooting style and needs IMO. Of the three brands I still love the color of Nikon over Canon/Sony. That being said, some post work does the trick. Ergonomics, Canon or Nikon over Sony for me. The A1 is almost there but not nearly as comfortable as a Nikon/Canon. When it comes to tracking/speed/image capture... the A1 has been stellar and leaps and bounds over the previous brands/models I've owned.

Nice video... I agree with many of your points. Keep up the great work. :)

[Nick-jlyp]

Hey Pierre, I have a question about a piece of gear you use. I really like your Hot Shoe Cover on your A1 it looks cool. It has the Sony Alpha Logo on it. I was wondering how you got it.

Level up your Skill, before your gears... in the end of the day.. final output and editing is the important

[RamonLinares]

Just for the lenses alone Canon is out of the question.
I do enjoy Fujifilm and Panasonic more than Sony, though.

[JNS_Photography]

In my opinion it depends on what you're doing with your camera. I tried both, Sony and Canon and came back to Canon because the 1DX and now the R3 felt much better for me. I'm usually doing Sportsphotography. I love the autofocus which is controlled by my eye and that helps me so much with taking pictures of sports and events.

[ezrashanti]

This guy really needs to let us know which models he's comparing in the first 15 seconds of the video. I'm clicking off after 45 seconds sorry.

[RichardBurrows-jr]

I use Canon at work for GCSE and A Level photography as students can easily change settings and understand what happens. At how I now only use Sony (was Fuji all the way until my daughter got the A6400) and love how quick the focus is and how much you can individualise the camera. I enjoy the Sony system and now have the RX100iii and A7C. Love your work and thank you for your well thought out content (I share lots of your work with my classes during the academic year).

I switched from Canon RF to Sony In March 2023 and no regrets. It was PAINFUL selling all my Canon gear but once it was all gone and I replaced most of my Canon lenses with Sony eMount I was happy. Even kept a few EF Canon lenses such as the Caon EF 135mm f2L and 100L Macro and use with the Sigma MC-11 adapter.
