Abstract: When some companies launch a "basic" model, they usually have no frills and are kind of boring as they want you to pay more to upgrade. I don't even think they want to sell the basic model sometimes, it's just so you can compare the more expensive one to...
As I mentioned earlier, the sensor has a front-end LSI and this helps double the readout speed, which is good news for focusing. In fact, Sony says that the A7R III can focus around at about twice the speed of the A7R II in low light. That's music to my e

Abstract: On paper, Sony's $3,200 full-frame mirrorless Alpha A7R III is a beast. With an ultra-high-res 42.4-megapixel sensor that can shoot bursts at 10 fps, you can capture landscape photos one day and sports the next. It also handles video like a boss, recordin...
