I was wondering about selling my sony a7ii as I haven't used it in about a year but this video made me realize I have sentimental value towards it. It is my first and only full-frame camera since 2015! Great video and keep up the amazing content.

I started with this camera until the back screen broke. It has gotten me some of my favourite photos I've taken

Great video! I have an a7ii as well. It’s been the camera I’ve grown so much with. Been thinking about upgrading as well for a better battery life and smaller package.

Hey, I have this camera too and I want to buy a tripod but I don’t know if it’s matching with the 1/4 tripods

question : what leneses did u use on the fashion shots? thanks in advance !

[ccudjoe]

Only thing about the c i'd warn is if you ever need to shoot wide open on fast glass the 4k shutter speed is a pain

I had one, too. It was my first full frame. Now I use a 7R III which is great, but nevertheless I always miss my 7 II. It was limited in certain aspects, but I took some of my very best shots with it. It helped me to work my way deeper into some topics and to max out my results with what I have. If the 1080 footage would not have been so heavily influenced by Moire, I would probably still use it, but the lack of resolution for video and the not always good 1080 were really a down for me over time.
However, I would recommend this camera for everybody who is primarily after photos .. it’s old now, but the images look still great. And in the end it doesn’t matter how many AF points there are or what the score for low light in some tests might be. It’s very capable if you are. 😊

Sorry I wonder the manual lens on your camera. I know it is Takumar lens but I dont see any adapter?

Got mine for $350 about 1 year ago. Also got the Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 Di III VXD G2. Great combo!

Couldn’t imagine a better beginner camera.

Still use mine all the time, just pack a spare battery.
