Sony A7V Release - What Sony Needs to Get Right
My Thoughts on the Sony A7V Release — and what Sony must fix in the A75.
If you're a Sony shooter or thinking about switching to Canon, Nikon, or Panasonic in 2025, this video walks through 16 practical upgrades that would make the Sony A75 (aka A7V) a true hybrid powerhouse for photographers and videographers.
I’ve been shooting Sony professionally since 2017, but with new cameras like the Canon R6 Mark III, Nikon Zf, and Panasonic S1 II shaking things up, Sony needs to step up. In this video I break down handling improvements, photography upgrades, video features, and one game-changing hybrid feature that would set Sony apart from every brand on the market.
If you shoot weddings, commercial, documentary, YouTube, or hybrid photo/video — this video will help you understand what to expect (and hope for!) from the Sony A75.
