Cross-professional and leisure shooting in one, Sony NEX-7 mobile game: real shooting experience

In the last article, the emergence of NEX-7 was briefly introduced. Compared with the previous short-term experience of using NEX-5N, the setting of NEX-7 is obviously closer to the needs of advanced players, but on the one hand, it still retains the easy-to-use features of NEX family. NEX-7 is more like a semi-professional body that is easier for ordinary professional players to operate and easier for ordinary users to get started, and this 24MMF 1.8ZA is a high-quality lens tailored for NEX-7; Let's share some real impressions and photos of using NEX-7.

The advantage of NEX-7 is that it has a reversible LCD with an electronic viewing window. I used to shoot low-angle and high-angle subjects like this, and the whole person was either lying on the ground or shooting blindly. But for NEX-7, it is easy to take pictures by flipping the screen. With the large aperture 24mm lens of 1.8, it is equivalent to about 35mm, which can create a slightly wider shallow scene effect.

EVF may be awkward for many evil users, but in such a dim situation, sticking EVF to the eyes can stabilize the camera more effectively and improve the stability of shooting in the dark. In addition, switching the old manual lens with large usage, especially the telephoto lens with large aperture, is more helpful to keep the stability of the fuselage instantly when the shutter is pressed. As for local amplification and peak focusing, it is more convenient to confirm focusing at close range!

What I admire most about this 24mmZA mirror is the shortest focusing distance 16 cm, besides the image quality. As in the photo, it is easy to take close-up and large aperture photos.

These three pictures were taken by 24mmZA at different apertures. I really don't know how to use this super-large aperture lens (wry smile), but with the depth of field of the screen and the preview function of EVF, by controlling the aperture, we can emphasize the subject more while retaining a certain degree of background. The balance between the subject and the blurred background is the biggest task for users of this 24mmZA, but due to the electronic preview, based on the concept of blurred background, you can take photos with your own style.

The top is NEX-7 standard color, and the bottom is shot in vivid and gorgeous mode. The standard color is slightly brighter, but the taste of gorgeous mode is heavier. Because the flip screen and EVF use organic light-emitting diodes, the color seen on the fuselage will be stronger, and it takes more shots to capture the gap between the actual color and the fuselage.

These are some color representations of actual buildings. Personally, I think it is still faithful to restore the standard color.

The focus of this photo is the starlight caused by sunlight under the backlight, and there are many details in the darkness under the backlight under the thumbnail.

It is quite convenient to improve ISO a little, grasp the relationship between aperture and depth of field, use EVF to cling to NEX-7, and shoot some small things in life with 24mmZA, and the success rate is much higher than that of using only two hands to flip the screen to keep the posture. After all, eyes on EVF, there are three supporting points and two hands.

Using the built-in filter mode, you can also simply create interesting images.

Although the author of NEX-7 is very satisfied with it, it is puzzling that no matter how low the ISO is, as long as NEX-7 takes a JPG image, a string of words "noise reduction" will appear on the picture. Although the processing speed is very fast, in theory, noise reduction will consume some details more or less.

The following figure is a 1: 1 screenshot of the above ISO 1600 photos in the building part. I can only say that 24MPExmorMOS is really amazing, but I always feel that the high ISO performance in low light seems to be not as bright as 16 mpexormos used in NEX-5N.

NEX-7 is the strongest combination of NEX system at present. High-density 24MP photosensitive elements are matched with lenses with strong imaging quality and proper close-up design. Whether it is the second quasi-professional camera for professional photography or the easy-to-use high-quality EVIL, NEX-7 is a temporary choice in operation and image quality. However, the stand-alone price is similar to the A77 of the Alpha system. With ZA24mm, the total price exceeds 70,000, which is probably the biggest purchase threshold of NEX-7.
