Sony A6400 VS Panasonic Lumix G95! THE Dishonest Comparison! 

I think you can change that in settings. Most camera testers don’t get that in-depth when comparing cameras. They really just test straight out of the box, without fine tuning settings to compare somewhat relatable footage. Sony’s are known for low light, sharpness, and autofocus... Pana is known for stabilization, color science, and user friendly menu interface.

@@ultrakwon but I am not willing to pay that extra money... way too much when buying a Sony...

Thanks so much! We’ve slowed waaaay down but I’m hoping to hit it sometime this year 👍

Saw this and subbed. This dude deserves it!

@@TheEverydayDad hi from Singapore

MegaWoodswalker yeah for this price

Sony A7S III 😂

@artistjoh Would you say it's worth building up an E-mount system starting with the a6400, Sigma 16 f/1.4 and the Sigma 24-70 (for when I get the A7iii or Siii)? I'm trying to step up from an old Canon DSLR, and ideally I want to move to the E mount system, because I'm also a solo operator and Sony's autofocus is still king. Only problem I have with starting on the a6400 is the lack of 10 bit, IBIS, and dual SD slots (which is important if I'm doing paid jobs) On the other hand, the G9 seems to have it's AF improved, but kind of usable for static shots only. Fuji has 10 bit, IBIS, dual SD, but their lenses are so expensive I would much rather pay for E-mount full frame glass.

Professional Potato Fuji cameras are a dead end for serious work because of the lack of lens choices. Beautiful cameras, but when buying into a camera system you need to consider the long term lens issue. For a similar reason I would never recommend Leica as much as I love their glass. Pentax no longer innovates. Nikon is no longer viable because they keep stumbling and could fail as a company. This leaves Canon, Sony, and Panasonic/Olympus as the realistic choices, all of which have huge lens choices. Canon is best for specialty lenses such as tilt/shift but these can be adapted to Sony and MFT. Olympus is a shaky choice, but Panasonic is a solid choice. They put better features into a camera than Sony. However, given AF issues, Sony produces the best over-all package for the average user, and I do like the A6000 series for the smallness, but their full frame cameras have advantages, although price usually determines the actual choices. Personally I would go for the A6600 rather than the A6400, because of battery life, but the A6400 is an excellent choice. For paid work I would always use a gimbal anyway, so I am not sure that IBIS is as big a deal as some people make it out to be. 8bit/10bit might be important if you are producing broadcast material, but for most people it is not the big crucial thing that some RU-vid commenters claim. But dual card slots can be an important insurance and peace of mind if shooting weddings etc. As to AF, the Sony advantage is only in video. Panasonic’s DFDF contrast detect is actually excellent for stills. The G9, for example is an excellent stills shooter, and gives advantages like 4K photo, focus stacking, etc that make it an excellent choice. Firmware improvements have also dramatically improved video AF in the G9 and GH cameras. I am currently getting out of Canon and investing more in both Panasonic and Sony. I like them both. E-mount is an excellent choice if you follow that path. The glass is often over-priced, but the quality is generally superb. The 55mm f1.8, for example, makes me happy every time I use it. Sigma helps the budget, but many of the lenses are too heavy. Sigma also has a longer term reputation of not holding their value well over time while native glass from any brand tends to hold value better over time. This only becomes important when upgrading down the track and wanting to trade in your older gear to fund the new. At those times you always do best with native glass. Best of luck with whatever you buy. Sounds like you are thinking about things sensibly.

Nexsis LaBorde I think he does the same exact thing. I’m too lazy to ever set it in manual though.

Well thanks so much!

What lenses do you use? I also have FZ1000 and I don't want to lose that zoooooom.

Awesome! Hope it was worth the wait 😁

Neither is really that bad 👍

Worse thing about the 6400 is the stabilization. I'd go that route with a gimbal.

@@adeptskirmisher now is very popular hand shots (look closer to Hollywood scenes), but it is looks good only from panasonic/olympus/sony a6600/a7/a7s Series (IBIS), only IS in lens (not much lenses STILL don't have it !) is not enough to make good to watch video. SO very difficuld decision :( m43 for photography is OK, for me is only a bit better than 1'inch, apsc is much closer to FF and FF looks. big problem of gimbal is size and balancing with every lens.

I think he set the cameras to auto exposure and the Sony just thought the image should be bright like it is.

Cool comment dude, I just have a question, for music videos for a beginner, and on a budget I found a 700$ price in a shop for the G90 with a lens, do you think I’m going to be able to shoot 4K videoclips for songs, or will that crop bother me too much?

Thanks so much!

@@TheEverydayDad You're very much welcome

A6400 has a pretty bad rolling shutter. G95 are very good at it

Dont ever buy the 6400 . I bought it n i regret daily. The bounce during video is hrrble

Sony A7S III + Sony 24-70 f2.8 G Master

Sony gm 28 70 f2.8 zeiss is zuck unless za 50

Ha! I figured I’d have a little fun with it 🤣

Rio91021 LoL But how do you get those smaller letters? I’ve been noticing a lot of that in comments the last few days!

@@RoyalCaymanian What do you mean smaller letters?

Rio91021 Dude, you wrote “Unsubscribes” in smaller letters than the other words!

Sony looks like old camcorder footage

Get brand new a7 ii

Jason Bascos he uses PP1

In 4K, yes rolling shutter is horrible on the A6400

I prefer the A6400 for the ease of use but the XT30 definitely has the better recording capabilities.

The Everyday Dad I said XT3, I don't know if you wanted to say XT30 or XT3 😅. But thank you very much!

Dang I definitely read that as xt30 😳 but either way my answer is the same 👍

Summer and I dont get along 😆

95. I have 6400 and I want to switch

What did you end up deciding?

or gx80

Nice!

Note, I already got an a5100 a few months back for nearly the same price, I didn’t know about the overheating issues and the lack of an audio port until I actually got it, but I saw the lumix and was like… wow okay

Very kind of you 😆

Narrow path if you mostly do vlogs, I’d recommend the 16-50mm as it is super lightweight

Does your Panasonic allow you to turn off the auto-focus? Have you found a setting that works best with autofocus?

I do wish there was a 16-35 and 24-70 2.8 equivalent zoom for the Sony’s APSC line.

The sigma primes can be matched on M43 as they are made for M43 mount also, but with 2X crop of course. And Panasonic and Olympus native primes are excellent, much better than Sony's.

Definitely fake news 🤣

Thems fighting words.:)

@@TheEverydayDad When I say external mic, I mean one connected to the top thingy like a videomicro or a videomic pro. When you get that deadcat on there you can't see jack on the A6400!

@@zappuppy6992 That's fine. I can beat up anyone who drinks Coke. I have Pepsi power!

@@raizt1596 Lol we can turn Dad's chat into a screaming match about who's sugar beverage is the best (its TAB BTW :)). Peace.

I have the a6400. Even with the gimble its shit

Kid Oman How so? I ask because I own a G95 and am thinking about switching over.

Dennis Mina why you wanna switch?
