Sony A7r review for architectural photographers | Nic Granleese

Sony A7r review for architectural photographers | Nic Granleese | Mirrorless Cameras | Scoop.it


This little camera is a 36mp full frame monster. It’s using the same image sensor as the Nikon D800 which means its on par as the highest megapixel DSLR currently available, except it’s not a DLSR. It’s a mirrorless camera. What makes it even more remarkable is that it can be used with almost any lens via an adaptor, albeit with a few quirks (see below). So for anyone with Canon, Nikon, or Leica glass this makes for a very interesting camera indeed. On top of this it’s got built in wi-fi to connect with your iphone or ipad and it’s going to retail for around $2400, making it significantly cheaper than a Nikon D800, or Canon 5D iii. Anyone else excited yet? ...

An unfair comparison? The Fuji X-E2 vs the Sony A7r | Tom Grill

An unfair comparison? The Fuji X-E2 vs the Sony A7r | Tom Grill | Mirrorless Cameras | Scoop.it


On the face of it, the idea of comparing the results from a smaller APS-C 16mp sensor to those from a larger full frame 36mp sensor is a completely lopsided affair, and something I did not intentionally set out to do it. Quite by accident, while testing the Sony A7r for another blog review I intend to post later this week, I discovered that some images taken by the lower 24mp Leica M 240 were really quite close in quality to the A7r, and this started me wondering about how much of an improvement a high resolution camera like the A7r would be over something like the Fuji X series. So, just for the fun of it, I set up a comparative situation to see how close I could come to the full frame image quality of the Sony A7r while using the smaller sensor of the Fuji X-E2.....
