Some great shots in the video, Marc - especially the Apes. Like you I’ve currently got the Sony A7 iv with the 200-600 and mainly shoot birds but, by amazing coincidence, about 2 hours before I watched your video I clicked the “buy” button for a Sony A1. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with yours. I’ll probably start my set up being guided by the video posted a while ago by Mark Smith and see how it goes from there.
@@marcburdenphotography hi Marc, I’ve not been out with much as the weather has been rubbish. Based the pictures I’ve taken, I think the extra MP over the A7iv make quite a difference. However,, the 30fps is quite scary! I’ve backed mine off to 20fps but that may still be too many. I’ll keep trying. I enjoy your videos as you shoot similar subjects to me and seem to have the same frustrations. I would say, however, that your BIF shots are generally better than mine so it gives me something to aim for.
@chrisvantwiskphotography I too was saving for the A1mk2 but as it's not out for what's looking like another year, I didn't want to wait. Tbh the price it will probably be will be more than what I would be willing to pay anyway. I would rather spend the difference on some new lenses.
