Launched in 2017, the Nikon D850 was the last DSLR camera I owned. It also provides a few nice “extras,” such as GPS and Wi-Fi. But the overall dimensions are similar, and it weighs less than the a1-which means much less than a DSLR. The 3.6-inch fixed LCD screen is larger than you get on most DSLRs and mirrorless cameras. But the image quality is excellent, and the autofocus is precise (if slow) with optional touchpad AF. It also only offers Full HD video at 2720 x 1530. The lenses aren’t fast enough to use in low light, the battery life is poor, and the frame rate of 2.3 fps is awful for action sequences! This is a camera designed for studio or landscape photography. Plus, the bokeh is often poor, and the lenses are expensive, like the camera itself! There’s also a dedicated family of XCD lenses, but there are only 13 of them. The X-mount is backward compatible with older Hasselblad HC and HCD lenses. This is 63% bigger than they are on my a1! The extra light-gathering ability means 14.8 stops of dynamic range from 16-bit RAW files. This is 70% larger than full frame versions, which means the pixels are 23.31 µm² (square micrometer). Introduced in 2019, the Hasselblad X1D II 50c is a 51 MP medium format mirrorless camera with a 44 x 33 mm CMOS sensor. If you’re considering buying this camera, checking some of these comparisons first: This oversampled 4K footage is something even the a1 can’t give you! But you can avoid that by using 4K / 60p, which is oversampled from an 8K region of the sensor. Rolling shutter is a problem with the 8K footage and oversampled APS-C 4K modes. This includes Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG), S-Cinetone, and S-Log3. Plus, there are different 10-bit 4:2:2 video options. But it’s just because the sensor has so many pixels. Both have a 1.24x crop, which sounds bad. The a7R V can now shoot 8K / 24p (for 30 minutes) or 4K / 60p video. The video capabilities have also been improved. And the LCD is now much improved, with full articulation and a tilt-out cradle. The new EVF comes from the a1 and is bright and clear with 0.9x magnification and 944K dots of resolution. The electronic viewfinder (EVF) and rear LCD have also been replaced. The new processor and improved algorithm mean you now get 8 stops rather than the 5.5 on the old a7R IV or the a1. As a Sony a1 user, I’ve often screwed up a shot after forgetting to change the focus mode, so I’m especially envious of that!Īnother benefit is the boost to image stabilization. One nice touch is that there’s now a combined animal and bird option. All that makes Eye AF 60% more accurate, but you also get several customization options! You can also pick if the camera focuses on the eye, head, body, just the eye and head, or just eyes for humans, animals, or birds. The processor can now use artificial intelligence (AI) to identify the subject using pose and form data. It recognizes humans, animals, birds, insects, cars, trains, and aircraft. The autofocus (AF) system is probably the area that’s improved the most. And It boasts an updated menu system and support for ultra-fast CFexpress Type A cards. The extra speed also leads to several practical benefits. But the new Bionz XR image processor brings 15 stops of dynamic range. It has the same image sensor as the previous version. The Sony a7R V is the latest in Sony’s range of high-end mirrorless cameras.
