Yeah fair enough thanks anyway! It’s no bother really, i was just intrigued about the quality compared to my dslr with the 50mm lens. Bit of a pain carrying that around.

Edit; just followed you on insta 🙂

Normally I'd say no problem but putting pics on here is proper krypton factor. I'm sure I posted some on here years ago in a similar thread. I'll see if I can find them.

Edit: Can't find anything pre-2020 on the search but if you PM me your number I'm happy to link you to a couple of IG images that I know for sure were on the MKII. They'll obviously be massively compressed by IG so not sure how valuable it would be for you.

There is no compact which is an upgrade over your 5D MK3. But if you're genuinely interested in a compact check the Pro 1 as suggested in post 12, or, the G1X MK2 or MK3 are a bit special. I had the MK2 for a while and it was the nuts.

What about a really good compact camera with a built in flash, flip screen and a really good lens..it would be much easier to carry around.Any ideas what I could look at?

And there it is, Sony 'Alpha'

I had no idea about this, but I have a team sorting the cameras for shoots. This is really interesting. Although on the bank, personally, I'd rather not mess about with a hotshoe and phone, just another thing to go wrong.

Don't be worried about the rear screen not fully articulating on the A7 series. As the latest creative app from Sony tethers reliably and has zero lag to your mobile phone, I normally attach my phone to the hot shoe to see what the camera sees. And with the latest firmware you now have a built-in intervalometer for self-takes.

Hi mate.

I am a photographer and I love Sony for outside shoots, (I shoot fashion).

I have the Sony A7riii (same model as the one you're looking at but good for stills and video).

I'm posting as do be aware that the screen doesn't flip - which for self takes etc is important.

You're right though, its all abut the glass and that 50 is nice lens.

Off the back of some advice from a friend I’m thinking of upgrading to a Sony a7iii with a Sony FE 1.4 50mm GM lens

But I keep telling myself I shouldn’t as it’s overkill haha the m50 is far far far good enough
