I’ve heard all the usual Sony takes: “Sony is boring,” “Sony isn’t ergonomic,” “Sony color is terrible,” and “skin tones look fake.” And honestly, I’ve tested enough cameras on this channel—Canon R6 Mark II, R5, Nikon Z6 III, even Fujifilm—to understand why people say it. But I still default back to Sony, and in this video I break down exactly why, where I use my Sony A7 IV, and where I actively don’t. For me, “boring” is actually the goal when I’m working. A camera that behaves as expected lets me focus on making the image instead of fighting autofocus, inconsistent lenses, or clunky controls. Sony’s real advantage is the lens ecosystem and third‑party support—I shoot Sigma and Tamron almost exclusively because I’m always chasing the best quality for the best price, and I don’t own a single G Master. I also talk about why color science doesn’t matter nearly as much as people think (especially if you shoot RAW and edit in Lightroom), and why Sony’s autofocus and the Monitor & Control app keep me locked in. Then I get into the three big Sony flaws that genuinely drive me nuts: the hot shoe failing in moisture, the A7 IV’s unreliable mechanical shutter, and what I consider terrible support and repair turnaround when something goes wrong.
