It’s good, that a value price is happening. It’s not good, to assume important, basic, benefits can be acceptably removed.
It’s good, that Sony is (perhaps) shaking up the market; *and* have gotten close to providing comprehensive benefits, from one system. It’s not good, they haven’t yet pulled it off, and with this camera, their not even trying.
You see, I recognize, its good benefits; it’s just that they are stifled, by the lack of a benefits balance.
I think this form factor is fine; if it were done right. It’s not. Though, a retro look, might be better. But, that doesn’t really matter. A viewfinder does. No jello video does. Speed does, and the flash system does.
What matters (for a light gathering box) is price (good), Lenses (uh oh), sensor (Good at APS-C); but FF would be better.
Of course, with Sony, you can always phone home, and *BUY* menu add-ons. Just a glimpse, of the Hades, that is Sony’s way. Feed that, and you may lose a limb.
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
