Pros: Everything and nothing

Cons: Everything and nothing

Opinion: I just can't understand it! Beautiful grip, balanced, wb crazy..... and then I don't know. The afs sometimes fast sometimes seems to be with a camera without autofocus, disarming really, it is true that with all the methods of af you have to lose a life, but the classic point and shoot in this camera for me is very bad, that is my use..... Focus and recompose. Very slow at the first start even 4 seconds, then anyway it is not that from the second onwards you take your life........ The file is beautiful, but we would miss it if in a state-of-the-art room it wasn't beautiful......... but the high lights, for example, never recover them in critical situations (which in other rooms are years ahead). I have owned her for some time and I have never done a job only with her because I don't trust her. The file is sharp when it catches fire...... But when does he take it? To me it looks like a studio. In video is crazy few rivals (apart from sony and I'm not a sony lover). So after buying 2 of them they are thrown into the bottom of the backpack. I don t know how to give an evaluation, I maybe don t want to belittle it because I had bought it with so much love.... but I just can't understand it. I've been working in photography for more than 20 years and I just don't understand it. Updated firmware, reset over and over again but nothing.....

Pros: Almost everything

Cons: Preview inconsistencies depending on whether you are in AFS or AFC that fade away after some experience in using it

Opinion: I would buy it again for me it is a 10. Solid, quality materials, ergonomics, excellent IQ, at night with 12,800 ISO it behaves very well, the AF is very good even though it was not born for sports for certain genres it is more than fine, very interesting computational features such as HIRES handheld with moving subjects, live composite, photographic and video LUTs in the camera that make it a shot & gun for OOC photos already beautiful and ready without going through editing. The RAW is very workable with excellent recoveries, and there is also an exposure metering option that helps not to burn the highlights. The stabilization is excellent, with the 50 1.8, not stabilized, you get to 1 second without micro-blur, if you have a steady hand. The arrangement of the buttons and their customization are excellent, which with the customizable Qmenu, avoids the use of browsing menu pages. The front ring coaxial to the shutter button is excellent. The preview, as anticipated in the cons, does not work consistently between AFS and AFC and the same inconsistency can be seen between fixed and automatic ISOs. With a little experience, understood the technical glitch, this is solved which is essentially an initial annoyance. She is an all-rounder and does it very well in various photographic genres. On a video level they speak very well of it, but I am ignorant on the subject, at the limit I could only make basic videos. If the preview worked consistently and the viewfinder, which is decent, was more resolute, it would be a 10 and praise.

Pros: Quality files, Wb car perfect, size and weight, general construction, very smooth touch, customization keys, user experience.

Cons: Slow sensor reading. Slow start-up when first turned on. Constancy af-c not up to par. First electronic curtain limited to 1/2000

Opinion: For me it is a beautiful camera. I state that I use it only for photos, preferring landscapes and some portraits. It has a very beautiful and workable file. Not having the low pass filter in rare cases you can run into moiré but on the other hand the detail recorded is excellent. Thanks to the perfect auto WB and camera profiles you get very ready files and even if I shoot in raw the post work is more pleasant. In addition, luts can be integrated via app to obtain jpgs with various styles, some of which are very interesting. The af is much improved. The recognition of the subjects is very good and for moderately dynamic photos there are absolutely no problems. It is not suitable for genres such as BIF and very fast sports (you can take your son's football game home without any problems!). The rolling shutter is quite noticeable in electronic as well as the black out when shooting in mechanical,. Gust and buffer are not sports car looks. The menu is very tidy but very long-winded with an infinite number of options (like all modern machines). Clearly it can be used easily but at the same time it allows many customizations for the most demanding. The manual is very concise in explaining the settings items. You could do better also because almost all online tutorials are for video. I would recommend it to everyone, excluding those who want to photograph birds in flight or sports that require bursts and af at the highest levels. For this reason, there are other machines at much higher costs. For little money you take home a super ML with the possibility of accessing the L-mount lens park. My vote, also in relation to the cost is an 8.5.

Pros: Finally on the S series a high-performance and reliable autofcus, excellent file quality, super video. Value for money of the system (using Sigma lenses) unattainable by other brands

Cons: The problem of per-flash latency also persists on this version. Unfortunately, the star filter (present on the first series) is missing

Opinion: The S2 significantly outclasses the previous model in every aspect, the autofcus is finally adequate, the quality of the file, already satisfactory, has now increased noticeably, the photos are perfect and do not require post-production. The videos are a lot of stuff (I'm not here to describe the improvements already widely documented). The pairing with the sigma 24-70 II is fantastic. Unfortunately, with the TTL mode, there is still the problem of the delay between the pre-flash and the flash (I only use the manual mode)

Pros: Solid, extremely good sensor, wonderful videos and photos, very good AF, IBIS that works well, fans, menus and usability with a thought behind even if very articulated, price / performance.

Cons: High rolling shutter, battery not adequate for the power, no sensor coverage if you remove the lens.

Opinion: This, together with the zve1 and z6iii, are the machines to buy in their respective price range. the colors are similar to those of Leica for obvious reasons. Park of optics that is starting to be interesting, for those who want a hybrid FF that works as Christ commands this is the camera to take. It holds well in the hand, great robustness and safety that brings home the result.
