How to choose a camera?

As the Double Eleven is approaching, how to choose a camera is a matter of great concern to everyone, so Bian Xiao will solve the problem for everyone. Today we will talk about how to choose a micro-camera.

Sony is a world-renowned large-scale comprehensive multinational enterprise group in Japan. Headquartered in Gangnan, Tokyo Port Area, Japan.

Sony is a pioneer in the fields of audio-visual, video games, communication products and information technology, a pioneer in global portable digital products, one of the world's largest manufacturers of electronic products, one of the three giants in the world's video game industry, and one of the six major Hollywood film companies in the United States. Its brands include Xperia, Walkman, Sony Music, Columbia Pictures and PlayStation.

Now, if we want to distinguish a single camera according to the sensor size, we should choose a single camera in Quan Huafu. At present, only Sony can choose, there are no other brands. Friends who need to buy Quan Huafu micro-orders can buy them from Sony's eight cameras, ranging from a7, a low-end entry, to a9, a flagship product, with prices ranging from 6,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan. The functional positioning difference is also obvious, so I won't go into details here in Bian Xiao.

APS-C format camera, which is the most competitive place among manufacturers, is a profitable market. Sony, as the originator of the micro-camera, has already been deployed, and there are many product lines to choose from, and the distinction between high, middle and low grades is also very clear. However, it seems that after selling micro-orders in Quan Huafu in the past two years, the entry-level APS-C products are not updated. In the past two years, only two new cameras, A6300 and A6500, were launched, with the pricing of 5600 and 9300 respectively. For video shooters and Vlog bloggers, 4K video recording and S-Log3 color management were 2.4 times over-developed. But beyond that, other products on sale are old products that are out of touch with the times, namely A5000, a5 100 and a6000, and the current price is between 3000 and 4000.

In Canon's miniature interchangeable lens camera, although it started very late, it can be said that it is Canon's turn-over black technology since Canon launched its own full-pixel dual-core CMOS AF focusing technology. It greatly improves the focusing speed of the sensor. Among Japanese single-camera cameras, Canon has the highest sales volume. With the comprehensive upgrade of Canon M series, from the lowest entry Canon M 100 to the latest Canon M6 and M5, full-pixel dual-core focusing has been added, which adds a lot to the experience. This year, Canon invited Lu Han, a very popular idol, as the spokesperson of M series, and the sales volume soared.

Compared with the old model, both performance and image quality are worse than the new camera. Among IT products with ever-changing information, the technology of low-end cameras three years ago is far from PK compared with products with similar prices launched this year. Take Canon, whose market share of micro-cameras is rising fastest, as an example. At present, Canon M6 and Sony A6000 are the best sellers on the market.

First, let's compare the appearance and workmanship of the two cameras. First of all, let's look at the design of the fuselage. There is not much difference in weight and volume between the two cameras, but there are some differences in design concept and functional positioning between the two SLR cameras, so the fuselage is very different.

Seen from the fuselage, Canon M3 is slightly smaller than Sony A6000 in volume. However, because they are all micro-sheets in APS-C format, the positioning is entry-level, so the camera material has chosen engineering plastics these two days. However, in actual feel, Canon's surface coating is colder and has a better grip, while Sony A6000 has a heavier plastic feeling.

In the fuselage design, Sony's handle is thick, but because the connecting part of the handle is right angle, the grip feel is not as comfortable as Canon M3. In terms of the impeller of the fuselage, both cameras are double impellers, and the design concept of the rear impeller is basically the same, but Sony's front impeller is located at the thumb and Canon is located at the shutter, so Canon has more advantages in overall operating comfort and portability. I have to say, although Sony Micro-Single is very famous in recent years, there is still a certain gap in the fuselage engineering design from the traditional manufacturer Canon.

Let's look at the design differences in more detail. Both cameras use flip screens, but because Sony has EVF, the flip screen can only be 90 degrees, while Canon can completely flip 180 degrees, which is convenient for self-timer. On the screen, Canon has a touch function, but Sony cameras don't currently have this function.

Generally speaking, in the fuselage comparison, although the positioning of the two machines is similar, the design concept is different, which leads to a great difference in the overall feel. As far as the actual shooting experience is concerned, Canon's fuselage feels good in Bisogni. On the question of which is better, Sony or Canon, Bian Xiao thinks that Quan Huafu can only choose Sony for micro-single and 4K video shooting, and the electronic products can be updated quickly. Only by keeping up with the trend of the times and stepping up the pace of innovation can we gain a firm foothold in the market and win the love of consumers.
