We currently have 2 Sony cameras: SONY ALPHA 7III and SONY ALPHA 7IV for which we share the lenses. We are also in process of changing our DJI MAVIC AIR drone.

SONY ALPHA 7 IV

​

Our most recent acquisition, we are still testing it, as it`s only been few months since we bought it.

This is mainly our video camera while we use the older  Sony Alpha 7 III only for photography.

At the moment we share 4 prime lenses: Sony 35 mm ( F1.4 ), Sony 135 mm GM ( F.1.8 ), Sony 85 mm ( F.18 ) and Zeiss 55 mm.

SONY ALPHA 7 III

​

Until now ( and it`s been almost 4 years ), this camera hasn`t disappointed us. Although the Tamron lens is the best price-quality deal for it`s category, we must say that the Sony lens is really amazing. It`s a bit unfair to compare these 2 as they belong to completely different categories. However, the downside is that both lenses are pretty big and they significantly add a lot of weigh to the camera.

One of the things that we absolutely love and it makes this camera stand out of the crows is it`s excellent low light capability! Basically, with a high ISO ( and trust us, it can go incredibly high ) you can do street photography at night without using a tripod! Same applies when it comes to taking pictures from the flight deck at night. With the previous camera, it was absolutely impossible to shoot anything from the vibrating aircraft.

Apart from that, the level of customization this camera can achieve is top and you can actually decide if you want to use the sensor at its full frame capacity or just APSC.

The biggest downside encountered by now is its heavy weight, compared, of course, with our previous Olympus.

​

We have recently bought the Zeiss 55 mm ( f 1.8 ), which is more amazing than expected. It is incredibly small and light making our camera much easier to carry. On top of that, that f1.8 can get us incredible portraits but, at the same time, provides a decent landscape photography as well. Therefore, this combination - Sony A7III + Zeiss 55 mm - is simply amazing when we don`t have too much space or we`re not in the mood for carrying, but we still want stunning images.
