Sony a7C review at Dpreview: “having this kind of quality in a genuinely small camera is extremely attractive”

Preorders: BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon, FocusCamera. Calumet DE. Foto-erhardt DE. Fotokoch DE. Wex UK. Park UK.

Dpreview tested the new Sony A7c and concluded:

The Sony a7C is gives up very little in the way of features in order to achieve its small size. Its image quality is very good and its AF is excellent, but its small viewfinder takes away from the experience a little. Its video and menus aren’t as polished as its rivals but its size and battery life make for a powerful combination.

The a7C’s appeal can really be summed-up in a single phrase: ‘full-frame image quality in a compact body’. When using the a7C it’s easy to forget the size of the sensor that Sony has packed inside it, and while there are frustrations (the viewfinder experience is adequate but not amazing, and I wish there was a front control dial) having this kind of quality in a genuinely small camera is extremely attractive.

RUMOR: Sony will update some current E-mount glass starting from 2021

A couple of sources told me that we can expect some of the current existing FE lenses to be updated in 2021. I think particularly some older zoom needs to get a boost in optical quality performance…what say you?

Full Frame mirrorless market share in Japan. Canon is catching up with Sony sales!

BCNranking unveiled the latest market share data and the trend is clear: Canon’s latest R5-R6 duo is selling well in Japan and Canon is now gaining terrain. Sony’s leadership is now at risk. It would have helped for Sony to launch the new A7IV but for some weird reasons they decided to wait til 2021 to launch this camera :(
