Wellnow we are at the point of insulting me and berating me in public. I certainly hope you got a lawyer. Im a business. This is defamation of character
Now what I actual said . Pay attention because you have been rewriting everything I said
These are my comments
1.Laymans terms the A7RiV horizontal image its native size(300)DPI is basically 32x22 inches
A A7rIII horizontal native size is basically a 28 x18
To do a comparative between the 2 cameras you need to resize the A7rIV to 28x18 to normalize it
Beat me to it.
2 Seriously I’d fire myself if I was shooting that high. I never ever go over 2000 but more likely 1600. Seriously my Profotos would come out to play. Now I say that and I’ve shot everything under the sun for 43 years professionally.These people living in a hole or what.
If you did not get it Im half joking here but obviously you did not get it.
Im talking about what I would do not what anyone else would do. Again I don't shoot animals or sports for a living. Im insulting no one, Im stating a fact of what i dont shoot for a living but I do for my own personal work
3 than I said this . Im talking about testing ISO
No it’s fun to see what things do for sure but you need to look at it as data points than relate it to your reality. What we have seen is the high ISo looks horrid so I’m not buying and those comments are really not fair because it’s not really the case. As a lot of us test around here we are always trying to eliminate the variables
Im agreeing with testing it for sure.
Lets be clear one more time I am referring everything about the A7RIV no other camera no style or subject of shooting. Im talking camera
4
That’s not the case at all. I just won’t go there. But I can see where it has some merit especially with very long glass and speed issues.
My reality is different than yours . But I would not expect a 60 Mpx sensor to do it either. Its a pipe dream
Where did i say anything bad. Im talking about me i dont want to shoot that high if I can help it this camera won't do it is the bottom line. I would pick the A9
5 this is my take on what I think the limit is . Wait have I said anything about what your shooting. Nothing. This is my opinion.
From what I have seen so far and obviously up to your own expectations and preference it looks like ISO 3200 is the max I’d go on this cam. Now I owned a 60mpx CCD back not a CMOS in medium format . No way you get past ISO 400.
Heck I ate,slept and shot Kodachrome 64 for decades. 12800 was never ever a option . This is a joke but maybe you dont understand joking.
You wonder where 1.4 lenses came from , it was not about bokeh
The Kodachrome is a fact. I was the Chief Photographer for Honeywell International for 16 years and traveled the globe for them doing marketing and annual reports Been a working Pro since i was 19 im 62 years old been a photographer all that time as a freelancer mostly. You dont get a job like that not knowing what you doing.Ive shot just about every piece of gear ever made. Big statement but true. I have 16 years of work that I simply cant post. I was a employee I dont own it and it would break the copyright laws
This is number 6 that had anything that would be debatable but you continue to harass me for no cause at all. Son this jealousy pure and simple. Im a very good Pro and you simply cant handle that and actually learn something.
Flash is not evil and people that complain about it usually don’t know how to use it properly. It’s used to supplement the ambient light when needed. I’m very good at using it but that’s besides the point. As I said earlier from all that im seeing I feel comfortable at Staying below ISO 3200 but if I have to get the shot I’ll get the shot. Be it flash or bumping ISO. But if my standard was always highISO shooting than I’d pick the A9 as a better tool to get that job done. This is a different tool and acts a lot like medium Format but certainly easier to use.
Seriously you want to buy this for that kind of work than spend the money but it’s not really designed for that.
The bigger problem is people have no idea what this camera is to begin with and just stick a camera on the highest ISO to begin with. Basically folks that have no idea what there talking about or any real knowledge. You can call them trolls or whatever you want but what this place is not is DP review . There are very serious working Pros here and Serious Hobbyists that know what they are doing. But if someone wants to spend 3500 to do a task that a camera is not really designed to do full time than that’s there money I don’t care. I’m here to give advice. Don’t want to listen than don’t. But do me a favor don’t blow off the working Pros here as some of these guys deserve a hell of a lot ofcredit for there knowledge otherwise go back to the other forums and stay there. Now what’s really horrible in your learning curve is not understanding how we did all this shooting in yesterday year without these cameras with these high ISO abilities. It’s actually something you should learn from the past. We paved the way so respect what was done and how is was done. I got along as a working Pro for 43 years. Ask yourself how all of us did it, maybe you will learn something instead of the snide replies to the ones that laid the ground work.
I said my peace and don’t like it than tough. But I don’t want all the hard work over the years to be mocked or misunderstood it’s a very important part of the history of photography. You guys learned from us. Pass on the new knowledge is what’s expected of the new generation. That’s the real history of photography is sharing the knowledge.
I’m going back to do honey does as I’m going nuts waiting for this cam coming tomorrow . Need to be busy.
Have a great day. Get out and shoot this dang thing
So here is the bottom line you owe me an apology. You treated me with no respect even as a human at all. Nevermind as a leader on this forum that helps hundreds of people to get better at this industry. You need to grow up, your age is really showing as a teenager.
In all of this I never mentioned shooting anything in particular, Never said dont do that and i always said this was my decision to try and avoid this high ISO. I suggested several times maybe the A9 would be the better tool. Im really wondering where you actually have a problem with anything I said Its my opinion. Did I say anything about your opinion, nothing or what you shoot or if you even have any talent and i did not insult you or anyone else directly in anyway shape or form. If you took it that way that's on you not me
All Of my response are about me and my choices. Dont like my comments i dont care , Im entitled to have a opinion
