The Best Explanation of Dual Native ISO
by @SyrpLab

The Camera

[PeaceGates]

My Mistake: Sony a7IV and a7CII both have Dual Native ISO. Two based ISO of ISO 800 and ISO 3200 on S-Log 3,
I guess the camera is way better than I thought, it keeps getting better!

Let me know what you think about this camera!

[ShaneAndersonProductions]

YouTubers need to stop calling things affordable. Regular people do not consider $2000 affordable. For most people half of that is still not affordable.

[karolkorzela]

I feel like a6700 is better, because it's cheaper and lenses are cheaper too. The image quality is almost as good in photo(less bokeh) and in video it's better(4k60 w/no crop+ 4k/120 w/1.5x crop).

"It fits in my pocket." - Deceptive

"The camera body, with no lens attached, fits in my pocket." - The truth

5:58 just the way the autofocus lock on as he is walking back is fantastic

[scampifingers]

some of the nicest looking footage ive seen from this camera.. would love a a7c ii camera setting/colour grading tutorial

[foolgaze]

as a fellow a7c ii user, absolutely love it

[lioncityhyperbole]

Beautiful. What lens did you use for those opening shots?

[xavieryt]

Guys, if anyone hears me here, a TRUE budget-friendly first hybrid box: *Canon R8*
Full-frame, 4K 10bits, slow-mo with no crop, 40 photos a second, no record limit... Less than 2000$
Been workin' with it for few weeks now, excepting a few overheating settings to be aware, that's a true banger.

[diegoescudero]

Nice video! But the A7Cii DOES have dual ISO. For S-log3, the first is at 800 and the second is at 3200.

So many "expert" focus on body. So many know better than us what we need or don't.
However, you can shoot with a Ca-ni-so, a M43, APSC, FF, MF, and get very good result... as long as you choose the right lens and have a well-informed eye.

[ninjatogo]

I feel like it's a bit much to recommend this camera to "anyone" as you said. It's a good camera but it's a lot to pay for beginners/hobbyists. A better hybrid option would be the a6700; cheaper body, cheaper and smaller lenses, while having most of the same features as the a7CII.

[LS-isob]

love the video! can you make a video on how you choose your settings for video like what iso do you use, which aperture, how do you expose? would love to see that!

[PatricksJuicyFlapJacks]

I feel like the a6700 is a better recommendation for a solid hybrid camera. That being said, even with the a6700, all in you're probably gonna spend 2-3k (body + smth like a sigma 28-70 mm for example); just to get started. If someone is starting out and has a 1.5k - 2k budget, a better rec would probably be an a6100 and a used 28-70 mm. APS-C is MORE than enough for a beginner or anyone not shooting professionally for weddings and stuff. Plus the lens would be cheaper allowing for more freedom and exploration.

[Moesamy]

The effort you put making this video is rock solid and really good. However, I think the price of this camera is a bit expensive for what it can offer comparing to the Sony a7iv. The a7iv is a bit higher in price by $500 but offers a very good value in both stills and video😊

[CadenMcCullough]

If you don’t need full frame which 99% of people realistically don’t then the A6700 is easily a better option. A6700 even beats the A7C II in many specs.

[Cinq]

After 3 weeks, the usbc was falling apart. Camera is heating quiet fast. Not a very good choice

[darrenchen]

This camera is just the perfect everyday/travel size camera while still has plenty enough for photo/video performance. I sold my a7rv for this camera and I couldn’t be happier. It makes a huge difference on a daily basis.

[andrew_nayes]

3:44 Haha, why showcase the active stabilization with the camera on a tripod? Stabilization is only necessary when there is camera shake. Sigma put active stabilization on the telephoto lens for those situations where you can't use a tripod, say when photographing wildlife or sports. Enjoyed your video, though! I can't really get used to the high frame rate, but you captured some very beautiful footage!

[garfieldmtify]

I had the A7C and honestly it didn't work for me so sold it with no regrets at all. I have not tried the A7C II, a single card slot is a deal breaker. If Sony is able to pull off a dual card slot I will certainly take a look at that. I am glad this camera works for you and most people leaving comments here.
