Hey everyone! I am so excited to be sharing my review of the new Sony A7CII. In this review, I use this camera for portrait photography and share with you the autofocus performance for both human and animals. During my portrait session with the A7CII I use the Sony GM 35mm f1.4 and GM 85mm f1.4. I share the image quality, closeups of the camera build and not to mention some limitations when it comes to using the A7CII. I also test this camera body out for video with the Sony GM 24mm f1.4 for portrait video shots and then new 16-35mm f2.8 GMII for a vlogging test which also includes a microphone test. Let me know what you think in the comments and thank you for watching!!

Absolutely in love with your videos, you are exactly the style and feel of the shots I love to do but in this video you actually made me consider including Sony in my gear. You are the most wonderful to watch with your smile and happy delivery of your real world reviews. You hit on all the right marks for what matters for me in a good video review. Now I have to figure out just how to include the Sony in my setup. I don't want to abandon my FujiFilm so Sony will be an addition. Thank you for your amazing videos.

Many camera revues are not worth looking at, but this is a good review. I got this camera on the day it was released and was first of all amazed at how good the AF is, not only with E-mount lenses but also with the fast A-mount lenses. It is a pity that the AF does not work with A-mount lenses in video. The vari-angle LCD monitor is annoying in most situations, and I often turn it over and use the viewfinder only.

Hi Julia, if i may ask you have you ever had any issues with the sony a7iv missing focus with eye af ? I watched this video but i think i might still be leaning to the A7iv. I'm on the fence since i heard about the problem with eye af. Your thoughts if you would have the time. Thank you

@magicpoo18 9 месяцев назад

Love your videos as always Julia. I was wondering if you could do a pros and cons of getting the A7cii vs A7cR? Tempted by the A7cR as I think it would allow me to crop (let’s say if I go on a safari), but maybe 33 mp are enough? Curious about your thoughts!

@wakeywarrior 10 месяцев назад

Good, but as I do more video, the ZV E1 (which is now £450 off in the UK) is a better choice for full frame 60fps, 4k 120 and low light.

@PaperWrapper 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the review Julia! Would you mind sharing more information on the stabilization of the video segment you did? Whenever I film video with my A7CII, my footage is significantly shakier than your handheld example. Without SteadyShot (standard/active), all the microjitters are captured, and with SteadyShot, the microjitters turn into abrupt, jerky movements. I'd love to know how you got your footage to be so smooth!

@brianode11 9 месяцев назад

Julia, the 35/85 combo is still your fav? Fav 35 is the 1.4 GM. But how about the 85? Now that the Sigma 85 1.4 is out, what’s your fav 85?

Great video! I'm thinking about buying a Sony as an upgrade from DSLR. I'm looking at this A7Cii or the A7iv? Is the shutter noisy on these cameras? And, I need a camera for take photos to accompany magazine articles and blogs etc. Which camera do you like the most out of these two? Thank you!

@robertpayne8762 10 месяцев назад

Julia, excellent video with great testing (going to watch the A7CR after this). It was nice to see you test with the 35mm f1.4 GM (like you would use anything else, right?) and the 85mm F1.4 GM. I am just a hobbyist, had the A7C but got rid of it when the A74 came out. I was thinking about one of these new Sony cameras for a lightweight travel camera. I have the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM as my only lens. I think one aspect of these lightweight bodies is using lightweight lenses. I feel like I want something else, like the Sony 50mm F2.5 G or the Sigma 50mm F2 DG DN lens would be a good fit (I think the GM lenses [I like the look of the 50mm f1.4] may be just a bit large and heavy. I am actually thinking about selling the A74 and getting both of these new cameras, just for the size.

@juliatrotti 10 месяцев назад

Thanks so much! Haha using the GM 35 is a must for me when testing out any camera body. I agree and I mentioned this in my A7CR review I think, that while the cameras are small, once you put GM glass on them, they are quite large and heavy again. Those lenses could be a good option, I'm hoping Sony will come out with some new G prime glass soon I feel like we need more in the lineup.

Hey I love the video I'm currently debating whether to get the a7cii with the Sony 50mm f/ 2.5 lens. Or get the Sony a6700 with the kit 10-20mm lens along with the sigma 30mm f/1.4 lens. My ultimate goal is just to take videos and edit them to have them look cinematic like some I've seen online. As well as take some pictures, but mostly videos. Please help, l've done extensive research and the a6700 is loved by many, and I can't find much information on the a7c ii (maybe due to the crazy price difference). Yet again great video!!

@Ryanphotos1 10 месяцев назад

Hi Julia, great content as always. My question is around how long do you expect to wait until you can open the raw files? How did you find the eye af? I remember the a7iv had problems in that regard maybe still does. Also do you think I will run into a problem using off camera flash? I have a godox ad300. Thanks so much for your content ✌️

@juliatrotti 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! That is entirely up to the editing software and when they decide to update. Usually it’s like a month or so after the camera release, but it’s always different. Eye AF is great, from my experience it nails iris focus really well. Same goes with the A7CR. Not sure about flash, what kind of issues are you thinking? I can test it out

@Ryanphotos1 10 месяцев назад

@@juliatrotti Thank you for the reply. Will I guess because this will be my first mirrorless camera I was afraid because it doesn't have a true mechanical shutter. I believe it is a first curtain electronic shutter. You are more experienced than I in that regard so please feel free to drop knowledge my way. Also since it only goes to 1/4000 do you think hss will be an issue if I wanted to shoot with my lens at 1.8? If you suggest Nd filters is there one that you would recommend that has provided you with optimal results? I know that is alot to unpack but any advice or recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you so much Julia! 🙌🙏✨

I recall in the a7IV that in PAL in XAVCS HS , it only has a 50p so it's cropped. while NTSC it has 60p and 24p. So its an unfinished option. Its 10 bit 4:2:0, 75mbps so it's great for daily capturing. Just seems unfinished because I doubt sony will add that setting in the a7iv.

@uttuslien 10 месяцев назад

Really enjoyed watching you use this in a real world setting. I'm quite curious how much of a difference in practice the new AI autofocus makes when comparing to the A7IV. As someone who shoots with the A7IV as their main camera I would love to get your take in a side by side comparison of these two cameras focusing on just that.

@alexanderpark6779 10 месяцев назад

I know you didn't ask for my opinion but I was able to shoot with the sony a7cii for a bit and compared it to my sony a7iv. My main camera is the sony a7iv and I mostly do photography! For me, practically and in the real world setting, I didn't really noticed that much of a difference. For portraits of people, I always found Sony A7IV autofocus was very sticky and accurate. The only time I felt the difference was when my subject was not directly facing the camera. But that was still a very small difference. Also, when my subjects aren't people (like animals, cars, and etc), the Sony A7IV was fantastic too but it was hard to see if the Sony a7CII was any "better". You can VISUALLY see on the Sony a7CII camera itself (the white box) track the non-people subjects better on the Sony a7cII but idk if it is any better than the Sony a7iv when I got to the computer. They both look like they got the same subject sharp in focus. I hope this make sense! Disclaimer: All of the scenarios I mentioned above is for mostly photography not for video.

@juliatrotti 10 месяцев назад

Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed! While this new AF is really amazing, the autofocus in the A7IV is perfectly fine as well. The A7IV is my main photo camera and it can focus on everything I need it to with ease - portraits, fashion, travel and weddings. In my opinion, AI AF is not going to be enough alone to get me to upgrade to the A7V when it eventually comes out, there's just not a huuuuge different in practice for portraits. The A7III vs A7IV on the other hand, there was a big jump in AF performance.

@martingislason5885 10 месяцев назад

Great video again, as always! I have been so excited for Sonys announcements and I went straight to your channel to see the goodies 🥳 I can’t wait for your video ac7 vs ac7 2 - I would really like to hear about if it’s worth the upgrade? Also, there are quite a few camera bodys now from Sony, and I think it’s getting harder to choose which camera body is the right choice if you want to take photography/videography more seriously (hobbyist vs. prof) - just a video idea 💡

@juliatrotti 10 месяцев назад

Thank you, I really appreciate it! I’ve been thinking about a video like that recently too, I also agree it might be confusing to some people what to go for because the lineup of cameras is just huge now 😳

@007UA16 10 месяцев назад

Thoughts on the A7C ii versus the Fujifilm XS20 that you previously reviewed. Granted it’s FF vs. APSC; however, is the difference in sensor worth 1K more?

@btswilliam 10 месяцев назад

Depends on your purpose and future upgrade path (if there's any). As a Fujifilm shooter, I really appreciate the smaller form factor (when you acccount for lenses) for casual, street and travel. The jpg colours are really customisable which makes editing easier for me. For professional work, I would require 2 card slots (immediate back up) which the A7Cii lacks so would go with the A7 series. But I also shoot Fujifilm for my professional work and have found that social media pushes the FF vs APSC narrative too hard. For me, jumping from APSC to Medium Format makes more sense than FF.

But the photo part is also very important. What should I choose between Sony a7c 2 and Sony a6700? (full frame VS crop). On the lens side, the a6700 being a crop is cheaper.

@angelviera107 7 месяцев назад

@0xANIMAx0 14 дней назад

I would only get it because of the look, because it looks similar to the fuji X100 V. I am looking for a successor for my 5D MK III, but since there is only 1 card slot and the small viewfinder, which would certainly bother me, since I always look through the viewfinder, there was no digital viewfinder. but the extremely good ai autofocus is already a very good selling point. maybe the Alpha IV is the better successor, even if it doesn't look as good and the autofocus is worse anyway good video :)

Is there a downside ot having high megapixel camera like A7C R? I recently purchased the Sony FE 24-70mm F.2.8 GM II lens for the camera.

@wakeywarrior 10 месяцев назад

For video there is, not photo. Video has cropping, rolling shuter.

@Na0uta 7 месяцев назад

Idk, even watching at 4k. I just dont see anything wrong with the images or video. Nothing that would matter to some one using the camera for personal use. Some very fringe issues when considering pro uses. And the same old complaint about 1 card slot. Im sure plenty of people have lost at least 1 mem card before. But at least in my life, not one has ever went bad. So i think id just roll with one and back up more often. Pretty sure it has a wireless backup option to. So can just dump frequently. Little annoying, but safer even then 2 cards imo.

Your editing skills and creative eye for portraits really are a step above the rest, and I’m finally starting to get skin tones to look decent myself. Idk if it’s just intuitive to you, but in videos you sometimes say you edit colours in a certain way because it “looks good”, and while I agree it can be difficult to understand WHY it does, and your reasoning for making the colours look like that. I suppose it has something to do with colour theory. Anyways, thanks!

Nice. I am a bit surprised though, this is the 1000th video I am watching where it is claimed not to be sponsored, but Sony provided all camera gear (worth 5K+). I mean, how does it work? Do you just walk into a store, say you're a RU-vidr, then get all the gear you want for free? Is that how it works?

@juliatrotti 6 месяцев назад

Yeah it's not sponsored. I personally work with Sony Australia and they loan me the camera bodies with no expectation of what I'm going to do with it/say about it. So I can make a YT video if I want, I can say good/bad things about it, etc. Then I return it afterwards.

Hi, Julia. How comfortable was it using the 135 GM and the 35 1.4 GM with the new grip? I use the A7C as my walking around camera, and I only use small lenses on it, because it wouldn't be comfortable to hold. Do you think it is worth the upgrade? Same question for the A7CR. Also, are focus selection and tracking now on par with the A1?

@juliatrotti 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! It’s more comfortable than the A7C was but since it’s a pretty big lens, it’s a bit front heavy when using it on such a compact body. The grip makes it more enjoyable to use though! And yes AF is amazing, it’s the same tech as what’s in the A7RV which is the latest Sony AF 😊

The Sony is still almost 1K more that the Fuji. 1299 vs 2199. Think it delivers 1K more quality?

High end sensor and focus, but the camera shake lets it down a bit, probably due to body size. I may still get it, But really. make the body bigger and put a proper IBIS in it. like any Panasonic does. Please..

@juliatrotti 3 месяца назад

If that’s what you want then you’d probably be more interested in the A7IV but the ibis is still not super amazing

@photogenic2010 3 месяца назад

Thanks for that, does the image in this A7cii look as good as the A7-4? or other FF cameras (Canon/ Nik FF?.. I know A7xii has the same sensor, but sometimes the sensor/ cpu combo can affect the final output. and I do trust your judgement :-)

@TheMaan2008 10 месяцев назад

I'm not gonna lie, I was a bit disappointed after watching this video! Because I wanted to get this camera for photography & video! But it seems to do not good in video compared to the ZV-E1! Because I wanted to decide which is better! Now my decision is easier! Actually

A7C rolling shutter vs A7Cii rolling shutter. Seems worse on the Cii :-(

@truthseeker6804 10 месяцев назад

price? this a7cii is an a7iv with less features, just like canon r8 is r6ii with less features. the canon r8 is $1500 this a7cii is $2200. at that price theres alot more competition. the canon r8 has no competition.

@dannydivine7699 10 месяцев назад

@@truthseeker6804 The R8 has no IBIS and to date a smaller lens selection to my understanding. The A7CII with IBSI puts it more in class with the R6MkII, I'll have to go back and check but none of the other (entry level) Canon full frames have IBIS. And the A7CII is almost as small as an M6MkII was. If size weren't an issue for me I'd be R6MkII all the way.

@truthseeker6804 10 месяцев назад

@@dannydivine7699 so youre paying $700 more over the r8 for ibis? sony ibis isnt even impressive tbh. at $2200 id rather get panasonic s5ii or s5iix there you get a much better ibis. have you seen anyone vlogging only with sony ibis? you would need digital stabilization. as i said, at $2200 theres way too much competition, and its closer to r6ii, a7iv, s5iix, zve1. so you cant really compare this sony ibis to the canons. the canons ibis is way better.

The A7iii doesn’t even do 4K 60p. If video is more important you’re better off going with the A7s series imo!

1/4000 shutter speed is such an annoying limitation. It's what i hate about Sony they always take something away from a product in the weirdest way possible just to make you buy the next model up. Up until that point I was sold, but i dont want to have to add extra glass to my lenses just to get proper exposure that any other modern camera can get.

@TheJamesBraun 10 месяцев назад

You can still have a 1/8000 shutterspeed when you change to electronic shutter. With mechanical it’s 1/4000

@@truthseeker6804 AI is a stupid word I hate it tbh. It’s the autofocus that is a big upgrade. Better depth detection is a huge one for Sony. If you tried canons dpaf2 you know what I am talking about. Overall it’s sad Sony doesn’t upgrade there cameras with firmware.
