But I didn't expect that the grip on A7C to be so shallow, so it's noticeably less comfortable even with the average size lenses"The EVF gets panned even more by people who have used the camera. I also chose the a6000 for the small form factor as well- but once I started shooting seriously, size was not a big issue, and rather it was usability and access to better lenses, and then I went to full frame a-mount and the plethora of used zeiss glass, size be damned. A7iii is quite old and slower camera. If the a7c did not exist, then I would understand why Sony discounted the a7iii. As for the possibility of including a bigger EVF, look at slide 6 above. Why can't we get it right, and everyone everywhere finally be happy? Hamish Gill of 35MMC compares and contrasts the user experience of two medium format titans: the Mamiya 7 and the Plaubel Makina 67. You don't have to buy this camera (since this is not even your beloved brand). Commercial film director Nate Townsend experienced an immense personal loss last year when his father, Tom, passed away. It could still be compact and forgo the similarities with the A6000 that undermine its user experience. Unlikely a7III will get the firmware update. You also need space for the battery, the EVF, the LCD, and some decent controls. The popularity of the A6xxx series is easily explained. As you can see the A7C has entered the chart at #24 and #25. https://www.bcnretail.com/research/ranking/monthly/list/contents_type=101. Leica has announced the APO-Summicron-SL 28mm F2 ASPH lens for full-frame L-mount mirrorless bodies. @Thoughts R Us hey take a step back. Anyway there’s no clear winner, it depends on what you’re after. I believe you can disable the automatic crop to APS-C. Then you get the full sensor with the vignette. Fujifilm took their GFX50S which had a large grip and a "prism" bump, and produced the GXF50R which is a smaller rangefinder-style version, but managed to still fit a .77x EVF (compared to .85x on GFX50S). I have a7c it is definitely not a step back sorry. Yes. This way they can release the Mark II later with the issues fixed and people will re buy it again. The 7DII feels very nice in the hand - much better than the Sony, and will impress more people, but the Sony actually has better IQ and better AF. In terms of making the rear screen smaller and the EVF larger, it may not so much be the screen that's in the way, but the sensor assembly, in which case, cannae do, Sir - or you'd have to have the EVF poking out a lot further towards the back, which may defeat the whole point of the camera. I also use my phone for selfies. Close. A7III and A7c. We were not asked to write anything about these cameras, nor were we provided with any sort of compensation. Tough choice but I won't buy either of them because I'm happy with what I have. Sony have found way to sell the older tech a bit more. Camera with any so called warts is gonna move, in Japan and elsewhere. None of this "film" business! Recovering details from RAW files is much more pleasant. It certainly isn't form follows function. Looking for a Sony A7 III vs Sony A7C comparison? If offered the choice between an a7Riv and a Canon R5, I'd probably go for the Canon because I have Canon EF lenses and I prefer the way Canons handle. The A7III is bigger yes but may be more comfortable to grip (especially if you use bigger lenses), it also has 2 SD card slots for redundancy (extremely important for working professionals) as well as more controls. @Richard It's rather obvious, but this article probably should've mentioned you're looking at a FAS display vs a tilt display as well, that can be pretty divisive for many and would be reason enough to dismiss one or the other from the get go for some. I tend to shoot in aperture-priority, and I just use the aperture ring and the exposure comp dial. Coming from m43, this camera is a home run (except that it costs twice as much as a good m43 camera). Personally, I do think it's a significant difference in size and weight (as compared to my A9). What does it suggest? I don't remember reading those in A7III review. The Sony a7C packs a full-frame sensor and an impressive list of features into a very compact body. Is HSS supported for the shutter speeds between traditional flash sync (1/160) and the EFCS max of 1/4000? You can read the full review here or read the conclusion below: Featuring a rangefinder-style body, the Sony A7C is an intriguing step between the Sony A6xxx series and the DSLR-style A7xxx models. That's not the way Sony marketed it. Put in on a corner....left eyed lose if it is on the left....right eyed lose if it is on the right....so center is the compromise they have made...as noted...IBIS unit take a lot of the room inside the camera in front of the LCD....so putting an extension above allows designers the room for it.. @Richard Katris, I realize that you need a viewfinder and a hump is necessary to some degree.

Oof, the 7 year old panasonic has better touch screen implementation. Such a Heavily crippled camera. They have a lot shoehorned into those little machines.... Agree with some of the comments above. High resolution, weather-sealed bodies and wide dynamic range are all important. IT is more than sufficient for framing the way it is. I'm hopeless without it. It's done all the time by all companies and is necessary to pay for the R&D. Many of the comments here seem like someone trying to convince others. @nikonissuperb: you prove another point: for those using an a6xxx model and wanting to move to FF, most would have no problem jumping to one of Sony's FF FE mount cameras. So there are more than enough improvements over A7iii.... Kiril wrote: The whole camera industry is now a niche compared to what it used to be 8 years go.". Almost zero likelihood. to improve AF on the Sony A7 series would be great! //the A7C is almost as bulky and weighty as the A7III//. I thank Sony for their innovativeness and guts. The A7 III boasts a 24 megapixel sensor - but so do the A7 and A7II . So har its my most used lens. a7c seems perfect for people who don't use a viewfinder at all. Picked up the camera two weeks ago. That is all. With an improved design, enhanced color science, and better overall image quality, Sony’s continues to ride the mirrorless high horse with the latest iterations of their ubiquitous Alpha line of full-frame cameras. Sony should give more information on whether it was challenging to remove that faux prism and have a (faux too...) rangefinder style viewfinder. I am. A7C splits video from photo settings. But nothing from their marketing seems to suggest a niche type of camera. I would tag A7C with C for creative. potentially a job for Roger Cicala to find out? I would say it's pretty clear the EVF was, if not an afterthought, at least not a great priority. It's not a matter of the microprocessor and circuit board size, but the size of the sensor. Definetely! Read our review to find out. And the camera is great for 4k video. All Sony FFs up to now, along with those from Canon, Nikon and Panasonic, have been "DSLR-style" - a move obviously intended to help people switching from DSLRs to feel more at home. A travel photographer or street photographer is unlikely to pick needlessly big camera. I remember you even called it false advertising several times. Clearly, Sony isn't worried about cannibalising their own cameras. What helped the Q was that the focus peaking was so good that manually focusing was not an issue. NexUser: Yes, I'd really like 40+ MP and the ability to see what I'm doing when taking travel location family group photos in which I'm part of the group. No Sony camera had it by the time I sold them, aside from my beloved A99. But what is outdated tech, or just plain disappointing, is the EVF, the LCD screen, the old menu system, and one card slot. OK, it might slip more easily in and out of a backpack, but that's about it. But I think when Sony releases a new FF MILC at this type of price, they are going for more than a specific niche...I think they aimed this camera to be more for a larger general market.

They could have made the whole camera bigger. And you are correct, the sensor gets the job done very well. Sony A7c has external dimensions of 124 x 71 x 60 mm (4.88 x 2.8 x 2.36″) and weighs 509 g (1.12 lb / 17.95 oz) (including batteries). Watch Chris and Jordan duke it out over which one is best. I had the A9, too, and I felt it significanrly bulkier and heftier than A7. RubberDials - When I move to MILC, I will not be selling my DSLR gear. Everyone else here knows they got it wrong. I'd be lucky to get £300 for the 5DS and the 5DMkiv would probably only fetch £900 on eBay. It has better colors too. Thoughts R Us Granted, DSLRs can do a lot; too much for one device it could be argued. In NJ where I can drive my car, I have a trunk full of lenses and gear. there is a lot of LCD screen ocupying the back of the camera....and lots of requests for various control points/buttons/wheels etc competing for that real estate....where would you put it? There is no large prism in there, why the faux pentaprism angular lines? Buying camera kit by the pound isn't actually a bad idea.But that Sony... You got me! IMO this A7C is a flawed camera. Not very smart people taking selfies tend to fall off cliffs. But what's it like to use, and how does it stack up against Sony's own a7 III? Since it uses a compact design philosophy, compromises are expected for screen size and especially the EVF. The issue is blown way out of proportion. I see that some aspects of camera humor haven't developed past the film era.. 3. I, too, would love a smaller form factor, but I figured seeing the sizes of some of the lenses, would it really matter in the end? So called 'full frame' is the same old and tiny 24x36 capture area now housed in a large, heavy body. Sony's rangefinder-style milcs are not popular on here, but are hugely popular in the real world. It's a shame it's impossible to justify the viewfinder remotely.:(. In this Sony A7 III Beginners Guide I will go over the very basics of how to use the camera for the first time. That being said, there are some smaller FF digital cameras available, like the a7c. Sony A7 III: 4K UHD video up to 30p, Full HD up to 120p; The A7C is definitely a camera that is intriguing me. That way, I can share the photos with everyone else in the shot right away. So buy whichever one gets the A7sIII's menus first, or a R6, Z6, Z6 II (or S5 if you don't need tracking AF) if it doesn't?The C was perhaps a better viewfinder and better menu system away from a big win... Sony's a7C is among the smallest full-frame mirrorless cameras you can buy, and in terms of core capability, not much has been sacrificed for the sake of compactness. If you look at the EVFs of the two cameras you can see a big difference. On the bright side, I view A7C as a camera with Sony RX1R ii full frame compact philosophy, A6600 ergonomics, A9 autofocus, A7III image quality. This camera is aimed at A6xxx users, who have the same 2.36M dot EVF. Sure some companies maybe add more heft than necessary to some models, but overall there are reasons for the sizes available. If you've got to have a shutter speed dial, then you've basically limited yourself to Fuji. You don't need articulating LCD to take selfies. I'd even consider a A6600 over it, somehow (cheaper, smaller, and better feel in hands). @Handsome90: clearly when I said "no one is interested in this camera" I was using an expression...not literally meaning zero people are interested, as clearly some will buy this camera and some will like it.
