I'm interested in the A7R VI, how are people processing their images? I use Lightroom Classic, I am concerned that only Adobe profiles are available, I'm not a fan of Adobe color. Also any comments from Nikon Z8 users would be interesting to hear.
Same here. Would like to hear from Z8 users you have made the switch as I am currently considering the same.
Your Concern is editing?
I would be more concerned with use cases-
The Z8 has a max shutter speed of 1/32000 and a readout speed that is sub 5ms-
The A7rvi is max 1/8000 and a readout speed north of 15ms-
Huge difference in use cases with just the above differences-
Those are definitely huge differences but for my type of photography, which mostly includes family, travel and some action, I don't think either matter a lot.
Do you use flash? If so, you would probably be better off with the Z8, because Sony's flash connector is a disaster by design. I broke my Profoto Connect on the second session, and my Godox flash will probably fail soon too. From now on, I will use a Nikon trigger and flash with the Sony in manual mode, but that is the wrong way to go about it.
I work with Capture One. Sony images look very different from Olympus/Fujifilm/Nikon files with my default settings, but starting with much lower saturation and clarity settings gets them pretty close. I also don't know if it is a metering issue or something else, but I overexpose more images with the Sony than with the Z8 (I use manual exposure with the help of the histogram/zebra).
