Now that the dust has settled and Fujifags have left this board, can we discuss the one manufacturer that has been consistently putting out the best cameras across all price ranges and types. Memes aside, Sony does make the best sensors, the A6000 is undoubtedly a milestone in mirrorless design and the A7 is a revolutionary FF device. This might sound like exaggerations for the sake of shitposting, but you know that these are indeed the facts and nothing but the facts. IMHO, there's literally no reason to buy anything else with an exception of Canon for their superb lenses.

>Sony does make the best sensors
But that's not Sigma-Foveon
>>2830016
They might have the best sensors but their lenses and bodies suck gookballs. Sony focuses too much on the bodies and stupid fucking features that photogs dont care about.
>>2830018
can't even output video because of muh too much data.
>>2830063
we're talking about photography not video, retard
also the sensor and the processing architecture are different. faster cameras have better microprocessors and more memory, the bottleneck isn't getting the data out of the sensor chip

no point in having all these fantastic features when they can't even get the fucking ergonomics right.
it's just absolutely baffling...
...they literally have the technology. They're way ahead of the competition spec-wise. You would think they would have it in the bag, right? And then they put the technology into these shit bodies that can only be held by prepubescent girls, and yet operate like elephants.
you would think the difficult part of the market would be the actual technology, but then when it comes to industrial design sony doesn't know what the hell it's doing. It's literally the only reason that Canon is still in business.

Yup, enjoy your busy, curve-filled, oversized DSLR or "look at my pretentious vintage camera" mirrorless, while I appreciate clean, angular lines of the superior SONYA7, RICOHGR and SIGMADP.

Good God, stop the shitposting please. This board is shit enough as it is, it doesn't need you to crap on it additionally. Nobody gives two shits about slight differences in IQ. Fuck off. And sage, faggots.
We desperately need a janitor or mod to clean all of this crap up.
>>2830350
This is a bait thread. Every post is a shitpost here.
>>2830179
probably the worst BW conversion I've ever seen
>>2830350
>>2830352
But I agree though. We need mods and janitors. There are too many threads that can be easily condensed to reduce bullshit. Recently I've been seeing a lot of threads asking "how do I do X is post" and we of course don't have a general for that shit. This thread should be in the gear thread. Personal critique threads also need to be kept to a minimum unless the poster is posting a larger body of work like how isi does. This place is shit as a board on 4chan, for real. One of the worst. It'd be quite easy to clean up and make not a steaming pile of shit. This board is /tv/ tier bad imo.

>ergonomics = carry extra weight for a whole day just so that the few minutes you end up shooting end up mildly comfier

>>2830356
Shitposting is the only thing that keeps this board alive. Embrace it, faggot, whether you like it or not.
>>2830352
I really don't care if it's all b8 or if the idiots in here are for real. Most probably it's a bit of both. It's not even funny, especially since this is the quadrillionth thread with this kind of shitposting. I don't even care if people debate the quality of new gear coming out. That's totally legitimate. But this shitposting and "hurrdurr my camera is infinitesimally better than yours" is just pure cancer.
>>2830414
That's bullshit but if that were the case I'd rather see it die then.
>>2830350
Nah, you just need to go out and take some fucking photos tbqh
>>2830082
Okay content of his rant aside...
Wtf is going on with his bottom teeth?
It was distracting as fuck. Never seen weird pyramid configuration before.
Spotty squirrel sonyrant man.
>>2830420
I posted a week ago. Thread still exists.
>>2830477
Post some more. Once a week isn't really enough.
If it said "Konica-Minolta" instead of Sony on the top plate of the A7 there would be no complaint tbf.
>>2830024
Their bodies are decent, I really didn't like the a6000 body but I enjoyed the a7s and r bodies, but honestly is just a minor drawback, once
They figure out bodies and menus they're gonna be unstoppable like trump, and as for lenses waht is a metabones?
>>2830109
/thread, I only use digital when people want the photo the next day for "muh Instagram"
>>2830109
Well memed my friend ;^)
do I buy an a7ii or an a7s if I shoot concerts and want to dabble with video
a7sii is too much money and there's barely any used ones
dunno bout the a7r/ii that much desu
>>2830016
Jesus christ you sony shitlords are obnoxious.
It's a fucking tool you fucking idiot. It's a box with a god damn sensor.
You people are a bunch of gearwhore faggots. But I guess it's easier for people who don't know shit about art to circlejerk about gear while the real artists go out and make work.
>>2831049
>taking the bait so easily
I do not expect more from /p/
>>2830672
I got shit to do, nigga. It's not like I have time for shooting, processing and scanning every fucking week.
>>2831049
>real artists
tl;dr i have no disposable income to buy a decent camera
>>2831822
Money can't buy skill. I dare you to spend $20 on a decent film SLR and make a good shot, gearfag.
>>2832171
Look, it's another lazy fat girl saying that it's what's on the inside that matters. ;-)
>>2830355
should have used the in camera conversion
>>2832335
It literally makes no difference if you are shooting in raw
>>2831822
I own a Leica, an X-Pro, and an X100T. I can afford a decent camera. But I could still make perfectly fine work on a fucking iphone. So while you sony shills stroke eachother's cocks and fondle your balls while staring at your shitty cameras, people are making do with what they have and creating work.
>>2834943

People use sonies for this.

sony spillover shills from /v/ have destroyed /p/
>>2834960
No one is buying an X-Pro2 for video.
>>2830016
Sony is trying, but the only truly visionary company right now in photography is Sigma.
>>2834995
>>2835187
I feel like they took a step backwards with the quattro design simply because of the pressure to appeal to more demographics, which is a shame. Yeah it can actually shoot at ISO higher than 200 now but it doesnt have the look or quality of the foveon x3 sensor..
>>2835191
This. I own a DP2 Merrill and it's just on another level.
>>2835187

:(
It's exactly the same as every other quattro, with a dead lense mount and a bigger battery.
>>2835347
what the hell is a chutzpah?
fucking kike.
>>2835347
Honestly I'm just pissed at the fact the Quattro took a step backwards in quality to make it easier to use.
But other than that, Foveon camera with Sigma Art lenses? Sign me the fuck up. I wish I had the cash.
>>2834995
So Foveon or Pixel shift? Foveon is shit above 400 ISO, so you're pretty much going to need a tripod to shoot at highest res.
I do want to see Sony build some sort of pixel shift into the A7RII. Should be possible since the camera has IBIS. Not so sure about patents and other stuff though.

We USSR now.
