Canon EOS R3 vs. Nikon Z9 vs. Sony a1 – Flagship Mirrorless Comparison by DpreviewTV

Share


Full detailed spec comparison between the three flagship camera on this special BHphoto page.

What the Sony A1 really needs now is a nice price cut to compete better against the newer competition. That said, I am damn curious to see what the A1II can do when it’s released….in early 2023???

Ukrainian spy drone crashed in Belarus and shows it used a Sony A5100 with a 25mm f/5.6 7Artisans lens

  • news
Share

A Chinese military fan account on Weibo shared these pics. It shows an Ukrainian spy drone that crashed in Belarus. Inside you find the Sony A5100 with a 25mm f/5.6 7Artisans lens. At 25mm this thing had really to fly very close to their targets to take decent shots.

UPDATE: It’s debatable if this is a real Ukraine drone or if it’s a propaganda piece from Belarus.

I removed the comment system because of the many political comments. All I wanted to discuss is that they use a very old Sony camera with a quite curious lens to take spy shots :)
