About this deal

This means that the R5 has the potential to be slightly better at reducing camera shake, particularly when shooting at longer exposures or with longer focal lengths. Image Quality & Lowlight Performance Summary: But in this case, miniaturization of an EVF LCD was not the major design problem...the major problem was with lighting a large rear-mounted high-resolution LCD panel enough to overcome ambient lighting, which can sometimes be very bright.

The a7 IV gains the ability to capture 10-bit compressed images, rather than just the 8-bit JPEGs historically offered. Unlike Canon, which only uses HEIF capture for HDR images, the Sony lets you shoot standard DR images in 10-bit, with a choice of 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 chroma sub-sampling, if you can find benefit to doing so. One additional bonus on top of the A7 IV is Sony's Multi-Interface hotshoe. This means you can plug in external microphones like Sony's ECM-B1M and ECM-W2BT without needing any extra cables or a power source. It's another big string to the A7 IV's video-shooting bow, compared to its predecessor. New breathing compensation helps compensate for the change in framing when focus distance changes. This is currently compatible with 15 lenses and works by applying a slight crop according to the lens to avoid the change in framing. Body Design The A7 IV is capable of recording 4K video at up to 60 frames per second for up to approximately 60 minutes. A menu option lets you decide which settings carry over from stills to video and which maintain independent values. You can choose from: Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, Exposure Comp, Metering Mode, White Balance, Picture Profile and Focus Mode. It's well worth setting this up when you first start shooting with the camera, so you can just flip the Stills/Video switch when you want to jump between shooting styles. Live streamingThe Canon EOS R6 offers a 20-megapixel full-frame sensor, 4K video recording at 60fps an advanced autofocus system with dual pixel CMOS AF. Both cameras are well suited for capturing fast-paced action and sports, but the A7 IV is not as fast as the R6. The Canon R6 is faster in continuous shooting with a mechanical shutter and with an electronic shutter, reaching a maximum of 12fps and 20fps respectively, while the Sony A7 IV reaches a maximum of 10fps with both types of shutters. Both the Canon EOS R6 and Sony A7 IV are excellent choices for videographers, as they both offer a range of features and capabilities that are suitable for professional-level video production. The Canon EOS R6 uses a Dual Pixel CMOS AF system with over 1,050 AF points, which provides a wide coverage area and fast, accurate autofocus performance.

Because the α7 IV records gyro and lens data as metadata, you can use Catalyst Browse/Prepare software to further smooth camera shake and make adjustments to image stabilisation even after shooting. Digital audio interface for excellent sound quality For greater convenience during shoots, compatible flash and radio wireless commander units connected to the α7 IV can now be controlled directly from the camera interface. Fast Hybrid AF, evolved In conclusion, the Canon EOS R5 and Sony Alpha A7 IV are both excellent full-frame mirrorless cameras that are known for their excellent image quality and performance that any photographer or video creator can get a lot out of these cameras. For what reason would I choose the Canon EOS R5? The XAVC HS recording format uses HEVC/H.265 encoding to achieve twice the compression efficiency of AVC/H.264 encoding, for superior image quality and smaller, space-saving file sizes. Choose your look, for more expressive movies These two are very popular full-frame mirrorless cameras that are known for their excellent image quality.It also gains the ability to shoot 4K/60p for action capture or slow-mo work, but this requires a crop to APS-C/Super 35 dimensions. This footage comes from a 4.6K region. There are also options to use H.265 compression (XAVC HS) and apply the S-Cinetone color profile. In terms of image stabilisation, the R6 and A7 IV offer in-body stabilization systems that can help to reduce camera shake and improve image quality, especially at lower shutter speeds.

The α7 IV’s Quad-VGA OLED viewfinder provides roughly 1.6 times the resolution of the α7 III viewfinder, with a 37.3° FOV and a 23mm high eyepoint. With high resolution, improved electronic viewfinder image quality, and fogging and dust resistance (including significantly improved internal fogging resistance relative to the α7 III), it is designed for clear and comfortable viewing in a wide range of shooting environments.Like previous Sony A7 cameras, the Sony A7 IV has been built with video in mind. The camera can shoot 4K video at 60p in APS-C or 4K video at 30p oversampled from 7K in full-frame mode. Slow motion fans can film Full HD footage at 120fps. Both cameras are able to capture good quality images in low light conditions, although the Canon R6 has a slightly wider native ISO range, which will give it an advantage in very low light situations. But generally higher megapixel sensors do produce cleaner images. Which would you buy for image stabilisation: Both cameras would be ideal for wildlife and sports photography but for a chance not to miss that shot The Canon EOS R5 is the better camera here.
