Sony a7C II & a7CR Initial Review: Lightweight Bodies with HEAVYWEIGHT Features!

The fact that you guys go on holiday together with your families is wholesome AF.

Fantastic even handed video as always guys, thank you! Absolutely gutted they didn't put a high quality EVF in the R - so much of a 'rangefinder' style shooting experience IS the shooting experience, and it would have been perfect for that.

I owned the A7C for about 2 years and loved it. It was bought as a secondry, smaller and lighter option to my A7R3. I found it to be a great camera for just about everything i ever shot - landscapes, wildlife, weddings, family life....i ended up selling both the A7C and A7r3 to buy the A7R5 and whilst i love the sound of this new A7C2, ooof that 60mp sensor in a tiny little body is very very tempting! To be honest, i never felt i needed more from my A7C, it was perfect for my needs, but i can really see the A7CR's potential and will most likely order one before the end of the year - could be a perfect landscape camera!

really like how you guys put up your honest opinions.. good & some not too good about this camera.. really like the honesty.. GREAT review!!!

An excellent preview, as always! I trust the boys' video reviews, and have purchased my last 3 mirorless cameras after watching their videos. Even though I haven't seen the head to head resolution comparisons yet, this preview really makes me want the A7CR!

Thank you so much for the very informative comparative review! God bless and good luck!

Thanks for elaborating on the EVF magnification, I was really bummed it wasn't a bigger upgrade but I'm looking forward to seeing if the magnification mitigates that like you mentioned. Great review as always and absolutely agree about the silver version, it's the prettiest sony for sure.

Sat here with my original 5D but I still get excited when new products come out. One day I might even upgrade 😜

Thanks guys! Well done and clear as usual!

Loved this intro. Please do an update on both Sony A7C ii vs A7R using production models. Thanks♡

Great review as always!

Thanks Guys! Another great review. Not sure I'm really interested in either of these cameras, but your opinions, experiences and "hands on" reviews are simply priceless. Well done!

The intro made the video, anything after that was just the cherry on top

I am getting the A7C2 as a 2nd cam to my A1 and travel - recently did a month in Turkey and wished I just had a compact ... now I will :)

Love my A7C, fantastic full frame compact travel camera. And I sold a bunch of old gear to KEH so I’m familiar with them. But…KEH will only offer $860 for my A7C, so even though the A7C II has some nice improvements, the low KEH offer plus the A7C II price increase means a major expense to move up. Looks like I’ll wait until the A7C III or IV to upgrade.

Thanks for the thumbnail! Keep them coming.

You guys are simply great

been eagerly waiting for that a7CR!

Thanks for another great video! 🙂 I'm looking for a video first hybrid for outdoors content creation and I've been mostly eyeing on the Fujifilm X-S20, but I'm always interested on the Sony alternatives. Do you think it would be worth the extra cost to go for the Sony a7c II or even Sony a6700 over the X-S20? I'm doing multiday hikes and bikepacking trips so a compact system for me is a must and it has to capable of handling demanding environments and lighting situations. Thanks in advance! Your expertise and help would mean a great deal.

I'm actually quite happy to see that the A7CR has the pixel shift shooting mode. I managed to score the A7R5 for quite a good price but I am finding the body noticeably more bulky than my older rangefinder Sony bodies. I'm definitely tempted to try and flip my current camera and maybe pick up one of these.
