It would undoubtedly reject some of the best photographs ever taken.

I'm far from young but I do love the new technology and I teach it to students. You are right about democratisation. I am even encouraging some of them to shoot their final projects on mobile phones.

Same with my A7RII and A7SII, and it IS a complete pain to be told to wait while the camera writes to card, particularly if you are using either in a journalistic or fast-moving situation.

Been there. Done that. Got the t-shirt. Before you try being patronising, try to figure out a few things about who you are talking to.

If you can seriously market a profile that matches Sony...

One of the most sensible comments here, but this is a gear heads' forum, full of people like those guys who buy expensive hi fi sets with gold wires and only play the most dismal music on it.

4K is NOT industry standard, unless you are talking cinema production. It is industry hi-end. I still shoot for some European TV channels in SD, although I shoot HD or 4K and down res it often. ...

@hellraiser, as someone wrote just a little above: " If a camera starts from a point closer to what you want, it helps hugely."

As someone says in one of those links, which mirrors my experience...

0MitchAG, Unlike most of those who Canon bash, sometimes over YEARS, most of us having issues with Sony colours have actually paid a LOT of money to actually use the cameras. It's been a major...

If you have a preset you can recommend to get more Canon-like colours out of my Sonys I'd be interested. I've actually bought a couple for the A7SII and I don't think they did a particularly good job.

Because it's a meaningless question. I don't like the colour balance in their picture stuck on the board, or even the tone.

Ethan, you are showing me two images of a third IMAGE in the studio test scene in which I did not particularly like the colour balance in the first place.

I'd rather shoot people in the flesh...

@Glenn. Both. But I am also talking about the images AND videos of other people I am seeing published.

Not true. There's a difference in the colour technology and it takes wilful blindness not to see it. It shows in the final results a LOT of Sony users publish proudly.

And if you haven't noticed...

Well, tbf jaykumarr, if I were you I'd worry less about language and more about logic.

Old viewers of Risedal will know he does NOT generally have an English writing problem.

A multi-year anti-Canon obsession to the point of infinite tedium, yes.

But not an English writing problem.

This is optimistic.

I'm using both Canon and Sony these days. I still prefer the colour of Canon. Too many Sony users are producing horrible fudgy looking low contrast pictures that look like...

Oh rubbish. As soon as you guys lose on thing to carp about you dig out another. It's all about the brand worship.

For me, I have the A7RII and A7SII, as well as my Canon gear, but one Sony top of the line camera has too many pixels for my everyday photography (I sometimes welcome it but not always) and the...

Yes, I think that would be the sweet spot for me too. Particularly if it had 4K.

Or: It's a whatever. They ALL have issues and strengths.
