I'm the proud owner of the A7 R2 and R3 during their range. I live and breathe with this camera. When the A7R4 came out, the features on offer were not attractive enough to make me want to upgrade. That's just a matter of personal opinion. Now the A7 Alpha is here. It did finally time [Music] thank you foreign hahaha [Music] foreign [Music] This wouldn't be an in-depth review of the A7R5. I've been out of town for the whole month, and I only got to spend three days with this camera when I got back. So, this will be the first impression video with some sample photos I took with it. To make this easy to digest, I will talk about five upgrades on this camera that are worth mentioning. Foreign first, the new body design inherited from the latest A74 design. So, this gets a better hand grip, more tactile buttons, dual card slots that support CF aspect type A cut and UHS-II SD cards, the very useful mode dial, full-size HDMI, and flex

import that A7 Mark 4 is missing. Second, the multi-angle LCD screen is finally here in a Sony body. This is the greatest upgrade to me on the a7r5. It's super useful for any situation. I can't think of a fresh skin that worked better than this. Not only can it flip everywhere, it's bigger and higher resolution too. Foreign [Music] processing unit for auto-focusing. It enhances subject recognition for both photo and videos, meaning it can detect more time or subject, and it can do so faster. I only spent a very short time with this camera, but it was instantly apparent that its focuses faster and more intelligently, even track people and animals when we are facing away. [Music] [Music] Fourth, the image quality on the a7r5 is as good as, if not better than, R4. I never really owned an alpha, so it's not a camera I know very well, but what I can say for the alpha is the image always are astonishing. 61 megapixel is crisp and

clear with new XL processor paired with this sensor come with the ability of 8K video recording. Just bear in mind that this camera was not designed mainly for video. 8K video does have a bad rolling shutter. I would recommend it only use for steady shot foreign [Music]. 4K is better in Rolling shutter, much more usable, and 4K recording is up to 60p2 with 1.2 time minor cropping [Music]. Last one in body image stabilization. Sony now playing the Ibis is up to 8 stop. Again, it's something you need to get your hands on to notice. With 61 megapixel high resolution, even slight movement will cost you a sharp image. Handheld should now have a much higher keeper rate based on our short experience shooting with it. And I can also say this is by far the best Ibis from Sony for both video and photos. The a7r series has always been more focused on steel photography, but let's not how capable they are for video shooting too. a7r5 comes with 8K and 4K

60p recording is not the best in class, but surely enough to get the job done, and the new bigger fight assist over screen is simply the best thing for video shooting. Does this mean the new for Alpha models following with this will all inherit with the Samsung? Will this make the a7s for the perfect video camera? Can't wait to see it become a reality. So that's all for this video. Like, subscribe, and comment to keep the channel alive. I'm Jace. See you in the next video. I wish I had more time with this R5. Time to get an upgrade.
