It's not much bigger but it is heavier, 474g vs 650g. Now this wouldn't bother me due to the benefits that the A7III offers but woof woof's always wanting to reduce weight not increase it so maybe this is why he's not upgraded?
I'll probably just end up keeping my A7 but I would like silent shooting and faster operation as every time I go from MFT to the A7 I notice how slow it is in comparison. An A7III would give me silent shooting and it'd focus faster too but it would also be larger than my old A7 which is why I keep looking at the A7c. I should just stop looking at the A7c
I really do doubt that Sony will add an extra control wheel to any A7cII, it could happen but looking at the A6xxx series I doubt it

You do, you just don't know it - everyone needs more lenses!I'm not sure I agree with his title, I certainly don't "need" it
I do have MFT and strangely the fact that it's a smaller system seems ok with me but I think I'd still want a FF camera as that's how my mind works and the manual lenses I have would give a different FoV on APS-C. Also... I took two pictures today under artificial lighting with my A7 at f1.8 and ISO 8,000 and they are noisy probably because of the artificial lighting rather than just low light so I wouldn't want to take too much of a step back from the A7 performance.
I know what you mean, I think I'll always want FF. However in terms of noise the Z fc looks better than the A7 in this exampleIt's APS-C and I'm stuck in my ways
I'm actually questioning the accuracy of the photons to photos site now. When you compare the Z fc to the Olympus EM10 II and Sony A7s III the results make no sense, unless I'm reading them wrong of course.I know what you mean, I think I'll always want FF.

Also, this seems to back that up.

And that's why I'm questioning the results on photons to photos, the Olympus is even showing better than the A7SIII up until 1600 ISO which is bonkers. If you compare this to DXO the A7SIII is better across the board which you'd expect (on their graph you want it to be higher as it means more signal to noise.

I think I just have GAS tbh, recently I’ve looked at the RX100, Fuji X-T30 and X-T3, and now the Z fc
I’ve seen loads of reviews about the plasticky feeling of the camera, I’d need to try one out first. If the quality was on par with the EM10 that’d be fine for me, it wouldn’t be a main camera. I’d certainly not use it with large lenses.

Just noticed this lens has already been posted aboveIf this is anything like the 50mm FE II then it will be a great lens, the weight is certainly a plus too.

In what way is you M4/3 better than the Canon? I’d be surprised that the FF isn’t better even though it’s old tech, maybe a combo of tech, light and user?Interesting...
The Best Full-Frame Camera and Lens Combo Under $1,000 for Professional Photography
If someone gave you $1,000 and told you to buy a camera and lens combo, what would you do? Yes, it is hard to get a good kit for relatively little money. Yet, there are some hidden gems that are great to kickstart your career and offer an improvement over existing gear. When I started out taking...fstoppers.com
Interesting to me as my wedding was shot with a 5DII and 24-105mm and for various painful reasons and after months of asking where the pictures were I finally got and processed the raws myself and I was underwhelmed by the image quality. In my own humble and non professional opinion my newer MFT cameras shade the Canon for IQ.
Reading that I just wonder if some people are still stuck in an it must be a Canikon DSLR mode of thought.
Maybe more interesting than the above...
Photographer Follows Pregnant Homeless Woman in LA Over 4 Years
Over four years in the making.petapixel.com
Pregnant for 4 years? That's some gestation period.
Worth viewing for the pictures.
Mrs WW tells me to stop being so literal. Why should I?
I looked at that option, and it does sound very much like the views of a die-hard Canon user.Possibly slightly better DR and overall IQ plus eye detect and tracking meaning there's more scope for the composition and capturing the moment being up to the photographer rather than being decided by where the focus points are or by focusing and recomposing or cropping post capture. I think with more moddrn kit the chances of the composition being right straight out of the camera are higher. I did have to crop a lot of them, possibly most. Plus there were some slightly OOF shots from the Canon and whilst that could be down to user error such as too slow a shutter speed or focusing and recomposing maybe good old DSLR focus inconsistency could be in the mix somewhere.
Looking at the raws I was more reminded of the original 5D I had and its limitations than a more more modern camera.
I just found it a bit surprising that someone would recommend a 5DII for "under $1,000" for professional use these days. As a happy amateur the biggest and maybe only advantage I can see in that combination is that it'll appeal to DSLR lovers. Still, pros may know better
Having looked the only area the 5D is better is noise, and that's not by much, maybe 1/3 stop.Possibly slightly better DR and overall IQ plus eye detect and tracking meaning there's more scope for the composition and capturing the moment being up to the photographer rather than being decided by where the focus points are or by focusing and recomposing or cropping post capture.

If I could afford to, I'd switch to an A7iii or later quite happily - but Sony's decisions on A-Mount adaptors have blocked that.
