stefanocps Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 hello i am thinking to make a step forward from the choice gh5/xt3 and try to make an effort , in therm of expense, for the next level, z6 o a7iii (i exclude s1 as too expensive) This way i will have a tool that will give me about all the option, good af, stabilzation, good quality and of course ff, and i don t have to loose af or stabilization if going for gh5/xt3. Now considering i would buy with kit lenses which one would you suggest between the 2 ff? thanks for helping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Sports Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I would avoid both if you can only afford a cheap kit lens to go with them. Better off going with a crop sensor system like XT3, A6400, Or GH5. I made this meme a few weeks ago as I see this scenario WAYYYY to often.. heart0less 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfoundmass Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 It's hard to suggest which one you'd be better off going with without knowing what kind of stuff you're going to be shooting. The Nikon Z6 would probably be better for narrative work, given how powerful it is with an Atomos recorder. The Sony is probably a better choice for documentary and vlogging. It also has the advantage right now with more native glass, though the Z6 with adapter opens you up to Nikon"s massive lens offerings. Do you own a GH5? What about it do you feel limits you? While I know full frame is the craze, I feel like it's way overblown. M43 and APS-C are more than adequate. Kisaha and webrunner5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrothersthre3 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I'd go with the Nikon Z6. Having no log is annoying but you can upload custom picture profiles like Andrew Reid's Zlog. I am personally happy with my XT3 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkor Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Sony's autofocus is pretty impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a peter fan but for some reason just haven’t bonded with his lut pack. I can’t ever get them to look right. I would recommend the a6500 as I’ve owned one for nearly a year now and haven’t looked back. Awesome features for the price. Check out refurb on adorama. Mine is basically new and was $800 or so.

His luts are made with/for Canon cameras thats why.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip77 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 You can make great LUTS for the Z6 thru Resolve. My vote goes toward the Nikon Z6. It's a better camera and video camera then the A7II which is about to be old news and is already behind the Z6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
