![]() | Sony A7 Pros: Compactness, lightness, range of mechanically adaptable lenses, portability, robustness, vintage look. Cons: Autonomy, expensive batteries (despite the negligible capacity), bezel without B/T position controls, etc., non-customizable dials, noisy EVF, scarcity of external accessories (e.g. cage), REC button, grip ergonomics, intervalometer that can only be connected via micro USB (and not headphone jack as in reflex cameras), internal apps and dedicated app for smartphones, photo transfer. Opinion: Okay, this camera is over 11 years old. My version has a metal bayonet (and not plastic as has happened to other more unfortunate users). I deliberately got the A7 because I didn't want IBIS by default, and the magnesium body dissipates heat better. The fact that such a compact fullframe body involves compromises, but with the camera you have to take pictures, and not keep it charging or waiting. Except that the 11-year-old DSLRs lacked certain flaws that the first two series of A7s dragged on for years. Slow startup and buffering; long exposures... Long waits! Remove noise compensation and save on file processing time and remaining battery life. The worst flaw is the range. The NP-FW50 has a ridiculous capacity. You have to set the airplane mode to prevent the camera from consuming power even when turned off. Besides, from what I've read, you have to keep it a minimum charge to prevent the internal CMOS battery from draining completely (but is it a computer or a camera that I bought??). With mirrorless cameras, everything changes. Everything no longer revolves around the subject in the viewfinder. But to the battery and how long it lasts: 340 shots max per charge (not to mention that with the display you gain a little more). I'm not complaining about the menus. So many functions that were previously taken over by the keys, but here physically there is no space. Horrible white balance. In short, colors... REC button right where it shouldn't be. If you don't use it after a while, you forget what customizations you had set up. One of the few advantages? They hardly steal it from you... it is often mistaken for a film SLR or a compact SLR. €60 for a battery of just 1030 mAh? You're kidding us, aren't you?? Too many compromises and few merits. sent on May 28, 2024 |
