Some clarification.. A7IV ONLY has 4K60 in Super35 mode. No Full Frame 4K 60. Also 8K is 24 only!

[KamrenKennedy]

The fact that you can switch between photo & video modes and you don’t have to think about switching to and from S-log is reason enough for me personally.

I've seen about 8 reviews of the Sony A7RV and some say don't use for video and some say use for video. Since I now own a Sony A7RV with a couple of Sony GM II lenses, I can positively say A7RV does extremely good video all the way up to ISO 6400, above that and I start to see some grain but haven't really needed to go above 6400. 8K video is not good unless you do slow moving pans on landscape, but 4K60 in all situations works extremely well and HDR and much improved color accuracy.

One very big problem - Rolling Shutter! a9 III, FX-3, a7s III or ZV-E1 will be much better choice.

the screen is not just higher resolution but also has P3 wide gamut which makes it way better and much more accurate

[stevenwaldstein]

Thank you. I’m personally not a video shooter but really enjoyed it. I bought the A7RV when it came out and really happy with it’s still’s performance and new features the have added for AF and other things. Please keep your videos coming. Take care.

I'm looking at your stabilized video samples and I'm seeing no stabilization at all.
I think I'll get an Insta360 X4 instead where I can stabilize it all in post perfectly.

If I am not mistaking you can not combine OSS in lense with IBIS. I think you will only get one or the other. There are test on other cameras saying this at least.

How does the rolling shutter affect the performance in your video jobs Chris? Could you use this camera only for all your video jobs? Coming from a Sony A7RII thinking that it might be time to upgrade :)

[TheSunnySuttons]

Istead of programming faces, I would prefer to see Sony implement Canon's idea which is to use the joystick to select which face to track. This is much faster and much more convenient. This way you do need any prior time and it's better for run and gun like weddings.

Noticed the pacing on this video is slower than previous. Nice. Experimenting different styles?

[RooneyGuh]

Great video as usual, Chris. I noticed my A7iv also has face registration/memory AF. Is that feature any different on the A7Rv?

[BrentHagyVideography]

Thanks for the breakdown Chris! I’m wondering if the 8k functionality could open up doors to having the ability to offer single shooter video & photo packages for things like weddings since you would have the ability to provide 33.2 MP stills taken from whatever video you capture. 🤔 Any thoughts around doing something like that?

Hi, Is the Full frame Xtra fine 26 MP JPEG also benefitting in Low light on A7R5 compared to 61 MP JPEG. Can u suggest on it .
i am basically a JPEG shooter and confused between buying a74 and a7r5, i have good budget for a7r5 and will pull the plug for it, if 26 MP JPEG is also benefitting in low light. You can shoot in 61MP in good lighning for extra detail and resolution on A7R5 and switch to 26 MP for low light benefits if light goes down.
i have read that medium RAW benefit in low light, but so should 26 MP jpeg too, just wanted to confirm with you on it . Thank you.

You have a British accent, are you shooting PAL, or are you on NTSC ??

[GilbertTV]

now the price has come down & still no news on an a7v Im actually considering the a7rv .. I hate the flippy floppy screen we have seen in all the recent Sony bodies so this new up & down & side to side screen looks great . great review Chris ..thank you

[martzallmedia]

Why are people hating on the a7r5 video? Only difference is low light (no 12, 800 dual gain) and no 4k120. Can still shoot 1080 120 in 10bit 420 in S&Q mode. To me, noise and low light is the biggest difference. Also great photography with that resolution. Rolling shutter isn’t that bad except in 8k and crop mode in 24 and 30. Ibis is insane on a7r5 and auto focus is everything you’ll ever need. Seems future proof.

[mirrorlessmemory]

I could be wrong but I think active stabilization is a 1.1x crop

[meltysundae]

Face register is old tech but is it better from previous model?

[Lifebydesignvlogs]

I don't know if I should get the fx3 or a7siii
