The Sony Xperia 1 V is definitely the best choice for photography. The amount of control you have over the final resulting image is vastly superior to the other two devices. In the right hands it can easily beat the other two in most situations. Basic mode does have a tendency to overexpose, so I usually drop the exposure setting by 1-2 stops depending on the conditions.
samsung also have manual mode, and pro raw that give 2 times better pictures, i think Iphone have to
That "amount of control" is a pale shadow of average GCAM mod (not pixel stock bullshit) you can have on pretty much every android phone, except huawei. Can you on sony control your denoise method?)
@@user-qz7xx4ip2m I prefer stock cam on Samsung, gcam works insane only on my old xiaomi
@@user-qz7xx4ip2m well, all android phones that have Level 3 Camera API. And even shooting with RAW + JPEG on both, I still find Photography Pro results more pleasing (despite the noise). Gcam is a nice tool to have, but Photography Pro is also excellent. Their auto video tho, it sucks. I wish they could be at least up to some brands like OnePlus or even Xiaomi, since I don't always want to create or control smth like Cinema Pro or Video Pro. There's no alternative to that on the Sony. 10 bit HDR will have to do, and it does perfectly 90% of the times, so I won't complain. Would still get the Sony instead of any other device. Just wished they could have Level 3, improve the fp reader and kept the notification LED!
@@user-qz7xx4ip2myou don't need to on the Sony
I received my Sony Xperia I V since 3 Days, and I'm pretty impressive of the capabilities of this phone! Especially of its 24 mm Objective. At all, this phone can be compared with Compact Cameras and overall picture quality is perfect for Instagram and all social media. But u can't still compare it with APC or full frame Cameras. For snapshot, one of the Best Phones right now on the Market.
Are you in the US? What cell company are you using?
@@AldapesExpress you can use any company I use att on my Xperia pro i
Is the Sony Xperia I V's camera more than good enough for making great TikTok videos?
@@rootcao1360 more than enough, all Videos in 24 mm are top noutch 😎
How’s the battery
Honestly I received my Xperia 1V last week and I haven't done much photography yet but what it can do so far I am really impressed with it and also the new speakers while watching a movie as if your in a cinema I love it soon I will go around London to test the camera ❤
Yah! Upload the videos and photos. I've had the phone for over 3 weeks. It's great! Also this one dude on KZhead is doing Xperia 1v walks in China,, and the night videos are really really good in 4K HDR.
kzhead.info/sun/ma5spJeuq6VriJs/bejne.html
I might do so if I can get around it 👍🏾
The big tech reviewers scared to do the manual mode for some reason.. and they are a tech reviewer 🤯 I glad to see you at least doing it.. I know it alot of work too.. I appreciate you!
Thank you for digging a lot more into manual mode, post processing examples because many reviewers don't do that and criticize the results so last part was really worth watching this video.
Él modo manual esté tipejo no sabe manejar 🤡🤡🤡🤡,a sido dé pena po😢😢😢
It's unfair, because on samsung and iphone you can do manual photos too, may with way better results like on xperia 1 v, it depends only on hands. Automode on sony is ruined and on samsung and iphone quite good.
1st photo goes to the Sony
Stop the cap
@@M0KA007 chill boi
Yes❤
Very informative video. Thank you! In need of a new phone, I ordered the Xperia 1V a few hours ago because I'm not buying an iPhone anytime soon. Based on your video, my choice appears solid. ...even if it might look outrageously expensive to the untrained eye. 😉
I shoot raw mostly with the S23 Ultra and edit in Lightroom. Far better than the iPhone due to the zoom capabilities. When the Xperia 1V was at our office for a short time for testing, I found it easier smoothing RAW on the Galaxy, rather than the Xperia. Sonys menu system can be cumbersome at times.
Better only in zoom
🤣
I think that the Xperia is going to be a good camera phone for more pro photographers. I've seen good results.. but only when taken in the pro or manual camera app and then retouched with another app. It's too complex for the standard point-and-shoot photographers out there. It's not that it's bad, but it's not going to be a consumer phone, more an entuthiast or pro mode. I'm just at the first video comparison, and the S23 is way better than the other two. It was weird because all I've heard that the iPhone is the video phone.
pro photographers will probably be carrying an iphone and use an actual camera.
@@bikingchupei2447not the ones that know about the Sony Xperia 1 V. Especially as it can also be used as a monitor/recorder for the camera too. Does the iPhone offer any of that? The iPhone is good for point and shoot, over sharpened, high contrast images but I'd rather have control of those things any day.
You hit the very correct spot - SONY phone is mainly designed in mind for Pro users, especially Photographer or Content Designer. Not Point-N-Shoot standard.
Compared to the 1 IV the battery on the V is great, the IV received a dodgy update that caused a “ghost app” to appear and drained the battery like hell, a software update seemed to rid it but the V battery is so much better 😊
That was a great comparison! That RAW is unbelievable on the Xperia.
RAW in 1 V is on 🔥🔥🔥
@@elishamfinanga8744 However I have one Issue with the Raws. They're not 48megapixels, In my opinion they should be! With the 24mm when zooming in dititally and going for JPG+Raw, you get in the cropped JPG in 12mp and a raw Not zoomed int in 12mp, so a lower resolution in comparison. They should fix this. Other than that a great phone, and I don't regret the purchase.
Idiots like me get confused by writing 1V because it looks like IV (Xperia 1 IV). I suggest using 1 V (1 space V). Messing around with the sony camera settings is the best IMO. The basic mode is almost always mediocre, but playing with the settings is a lot of fun and has pretty great results sometimes. I just shoot raw so I can play around with the settings in lightroom after taking photos. But no "normal" person would do that, and most people should just get either other phone if they want to take good pics. IMO the iPhone is the best point-and-shoot camera, with the samsung being a very close second. The 1-V can have some shots that's better than both, but only if you're willing to invest the time.
That might be a good idea. I'll split test it see if it improves the discover-ability
@@WhatGear That's cool, I'd love to know the result of the test!
@@WhatGear I see no change in title, so no improvement? (Edit: I see the title is changed now)
Great stuff actually taking the time to go through the manual adjustments. Looks like the Sony is the phone to have if you're passionate about making your photos look their best. That said, I wonder how that compares to Samsung's more manual modes (don't know if the iPhone has those as well)
s23 if you want quick photos, sony if you have a long time to edit settings
It would be great if you could share your settings of the xperia I V on the manual photo Great comparison video thanks
So I recently bought an Xperia 1 III and I do have to say that I love the manual mode on the phone because it makes a lot of photos I take look like it was shot on a more "expensive'' phone/camera, but it does come at a cost of spending some time to get to know the phone itself in order to get the results I wanted (a little bit of vignetting and contrasty looking photos) compare to my Pixel 6 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max...I believe these Xperia's are for people that would like to "dial" in their preference on a phone. I have also had a few weeks to play with an S22 Ultra for a couple of months before I sold it and got the Xperia and I do love its Portrait mode but that shutter lag was really a big deal for me (the main reason I sold it) because I like take photos of my dog and it's almost impossible to catch the "right'' moment when all you do is hope the phone took a fast enough photo before the dog moves. One main thing I would love for Sony to add onto its previous generation Xperia 1's is the ability to record at 4K 60FPS with all 3 lenses because it's either 120 FPS with the main or 23.977 FPS at 4K on all sensors and it's very upsetting to know that there's no middle ground.
Great camera comparison. I bought Pixel 7 Pro 1 month ago, is it worth going for xperia 1 V or there wont be much of difference. I dont take many videos, mostly night shots and places photos.
All 3 sensors Exmor T next year please thank you
I think your bias is showing on that dusk video footage shot at 60fps. Even at the correct shutter angle, the horizon was clearly blown out. Leaving it on auto would not have raised the foreground shadows to the extent the apple or Samsung did. As for the rest, the Apple, as usual, is crazy oversharpened - it isn't "more detailed".
True, but he did forget about the HDR option on the Xperia which is off by default
What a great video, well done. I think the video would be even better if you compared some of the Xperia 1 V strengths. For example, do the S23 and 14 pro max take 4k videos at 120 fps? My favorite feature of Xperia 1 iii is the burst picture mode with the great auto focus, it captures great pictures of kids and pets (and make fun GIFs out of it), is that unique to Xperia camera, or the other phones offer something even better?
You can't do 4k 120fps videos on sony, it runs hot, after few seconds drop screen brightness and you can't see what are you shooting and shut down video app after max 3 minutes 😁
@@kestutisketuri3258 since this comment, I have bought the phone (Xperia 1 V) 😁. I honestly never got the "phone is getting hot" warning message (used to always get it on mark III). Out of topic, but the most underrated feature is the texture back! Never dropped the once! (And not anytime soon en-shaa-allah 😁.)
I started to use the Xperia and im impressed on how even the basic mode of the Xperia is just great. I shot many pics assumed to be shot with my Lumix.
really appreciate the in-depth comparison. I was ready to jump and purchase the xperia 1 v but after seeing how much manual effort you put into matching the photo quality, I don't think I'm truly ready for it as I'm not a DSLR savvy person, I wouldn't be able to maximize the xperia photo/video potential. thank you again and I'll be keeping my s22 ultra for a little longer.
It's not the fairest comparison, the Sony does have an 'Auto' mode which is much much better than the 'basic' one that he's using in the video.
Very good and detailed video and you seem very friendly and knowledgeable!
Dearest, your testing was the most honest. Cheers for that! This is a real proof that Xperia is much greater and a pioneer in its hardware department than any other, plus the freedom of the manual add or camera mod. If your Xperia was software upgraded, and was not a probe, then surely Sony will bring better. But as a Xperia 1mk4 user, I would ask you to check if the camera driver of the 1mk5 has issues with burned pixels at manual set: 64-200 ISO 1s shutter speed tested in dark for all three sensors but mostly for telephoto. Please answer here with a reply. Thank you greatly!
Thank you for clearing up the low light video issue on xperia 1 v, I had seen horrible performance in other youtube videos and wondered, i knew something like fps thing was going on and you just confirmed it.
I think all of the flagship phones mentioned are excellent. Its just a matter of preference, if you are a previous owner of dslr/mirrorless then i guess u have a personal preference to sony 1 v since it gives you way too much control on the aspects of photography and gives you more superb pictures. Thats on my own opinion :D
Really doing a great job covering the Xperia 1V ,would be great seeing a proper photos & videos Vs between the 1V & 1 IV for us who wish to upgrade sooner or later😏
IMHO the S23 wins hands down.
Love your videos about the sony phone, I don't think anyone, but you actually made a great review on this phone, so great job. Also , i think it would be interesting to see you make tutorials on how to use the sony camera app, as the pro, because there aren't many videos out there like that
Thanks for a really good test. I'm considering a switch to the xperia 1 mark v. Except for that photo of the wood sculpture, I really like the xperia for the life like photos, whereas the iphone and samsung "try to hard". Also, since it is my first time seeing one of your videos, what a lovely dog you have! Perfect to test the sony eye tracking capability ;)
11:01 If you look closely, you can see 3 stars on the s23 They're a little bit hard to see due to the light that's coming from the lamppost
Apple using Sony sensors, including Xiaomi 13 Ultra or other models, difference that Sony didn't include vivid, contrast and crisp settings, they can change the Software like how Apple look and it can be like that
Sony for the win! More natural than artificial! I'm all Sony!
Finally the person who know to use sony smartphone camera
can see where the sony does get good shots after doing the settings but thats what its about..but in all its not bad ...samsung did very well on basic...but did not like the iphone
Xperia I have to say is the overall winner, Sony with all the manual options can really get the best realistic photos and video in my opinion. You just have to really get into the settings! I'd say the s23 is 2nd with the iPhone coming in almost neck and neck with the s23. Auto is good for the majority but its fun to have as much control as the Sony gives. Cheers brother.
you forget a potrait part in this video but xleria already prove it self that is a winner when come to natural color and creative look. Iphone are 😄😄 trash 😂😂😂
thx you, plz do battery test next
I was waiting for this and this is what i like from xperia (many option) from the camera. But 1 V can turn night to day like Samsung did. Good jub broh
There is one big problem with this comparison. Most SONY shots here are shot in manual mode while other are on auto mode. Basically what this is telling me is that SONY automatic mode is significantly under performing and cannot catch up to these two other phones. The issue is 95% of mobile phone users are using it for quick snap shot and not 15 minutes setting and 15 minute post processing for each photo. If we have to spend that much time i rather take my DSLR.
The point of the sony is the fact that it’s not a point and shoot camera while the others are. The others basically do the adjustments for you whereas the sony is specifically designed for you to do it yourself. There’s no point in entertaining this video if you’re looking for a point and shoot. I have the iPhone 14 Pro and am swapping for this Sony for that fact alone. I can’t adjust my settings enough on the iPhone and carrying around my mirrorless and its many lenses and batteries isn’t practical all the time so the Sony is prefect for me.
Agree.
The difference or advantage with Sony devices is that you have a good automatic mode and the additional options of a camera This is unique but people don't understand it The automatic mode is no worse than on other smartphones!The colors appear realistic and are not over-sharpened.The HDR mode is much more subtle. All of this is better and not worse, at least if you like realistic photos.The autofocus is also significantly superior to any other smartphone, even in automatic mode.I just can't understand this discussion.I've had at least every year since the first Galaxy S1 one flagship per year, sometimes even several. No other device can do that.For me, Sony only does two things wrong.1. Software Support and 2. Marketing.
Hi, Two of your videos on Xperia 1V have been helpful to me :) I like how with Xperia camera you can make the photos look close to reality which is something I'm looking for in my photography. With Samsung and Apple their cameras have really good functions and qualities but their AI processing are not my favourite. I've only used cameras in smartphones and never in cameras (mirrorless/DSLR) so it would be really nice to see if you could show how you manually take pictures on the Sony smartphone! I think it could be a great help for those who find camera-purchasing expensive and want to have camera experience from a smartphone first.
Yes i found my Xperia 1ii gave me very accurate results, certainly in terms of colour reproduction. Really noticeable switching to a Samsung again where everything looks luminous by comparison - especially reds and greens. Eye catching but not natural. What surprised me is just how much detail the Sony can pull in.
Yes if you put the effort in you can definitely get great photos. However Sony definitely needs to improve auto mode as it's more than capable
Thank you for your analysis. What settings did you use on s23 ultra to take such great pictures?
Probably auto mode. S23 ultra produced great results. It may not be that predictable but still produces eye pleasing shots
i'd be curious to see a comparison between the sony and samsung both using similar / same manual settings. this should show a very honest and revealing comparison of the optics and sensor performance between the two.
With Samsung you can also set something manually, but the possibilities here really cannot be compared It just works a lot better and easier with Sony, although it has a lot more options.I've owned almost every Galaxy S since the Galaxy S1. But last year I bought the Pro i and now I use the M or S mode 95% of the time With Samsung, on the other hand, this is rudimentary.Can't be compared. If you really want to take photos then buy a Sony.
Same here but Samsung won't perform well in Pro/Manual mode, since the AI will not be able to suppress noise and there's no HDR option at all.
Thanks for the effort that has been put in this video. It is greatly appreciated. One feedback I have would be to also compare RAW from the other phones, or first start with auto on all, then manual/pro modes, then compare RAW files and pictures separately to measure what performs best while editing.
I appreciate the feedback. I’ll put some thought into this. The problem with camera comparisons with pro mode is it’s challenging to match up the specific camera settings. Shutter speed /WB / ISO settings that work well on one might not work well on another…
@WhatGear that's true, it would be similar to dslr comparisons. However you wil be able to seehow RAW files differ, what sensor is better or has more resolved details, captures more light, etc ..
If final would be 24/30 fps - when manual shooting no need to shoot at 60 fps/ double shutter, could record 24/30 in camera and 1/60 shutter for more light since final video wouldn’t show the 60 fps anyways
"And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all are one, and one is all To be a rock and not to roll..."
The photo with the American Indian figurine, I think the overexposure was caused by the face/eye AF. I have an xperia 1 iii and the face/eye sometimes tries so much to expose the face if it detects one
Is it just me or do ALL of the Sony Xperia 1 V photos look too soft or out of focus? I'm happy doing some light editing in Lightroom to adjust shadows, etc., ... but if the lenses or autofocus are off then S23 Ultra it is. Or wait for the Huawei Mate 60 Pro.
First of all, thank you for giving Sony a chance and use manual settings here and there. I received my Sony Xperia 1V 2 days ago and it really impressed me, coming from Xperia pro-i and it's unusable basic mode, I can finally point and shoot when I need it.
Greenhorn Xperia needs his first updates to become consistent. the other 2 already hat them
Your time spent on this video is really worth it. Obviously sony has lot more to improve, but after several years they moved to right path and i'm sure they will create a masterpiece of mobile phones. Great video troy. Excellent comparison✌️
I would have liked to see you do tests with all three in manual mode, and all three in point and shoot
Such a shame that the sony auto mode just isn't quite on par with it's competition, it's such a good phone in terms of design and features. If they improve the auto mode then I'd definitely consider one.
small suggestion, keep the name of the phones in the picture out of the screen for like 5 seconds, then add them in :) it should allow those that want to be unbias to try to pic which one they think looks better. in my case i went with iphone pictures in the first tho even tho I ordered the sony ^^' but i can sort of be impartial edit: however, i'm fairly please seeing that xperia has some pretty up pretty close to the other phones, even in some cases i liked what it produced better than the other 2. PS the last iphone one looks already good enough for instagram also because of the angle the photo was taken haha but yes, it look the better out of the 3
In every single photo i thought the 1V looked better except that in basic mode it tends to wash things out by overexposing a bit. However, I wouldn't buy the 1V to use basic mode often. And in manual every single shot was not only clearly better to my eye in resolving detail and natural color, but it can easily be edited to look like the others with a one click preset in snapseed if you wanted. Pretty impressive. Samsung clearly dominates the zoom though. lol. not even close.
because samsung and iphone wont be nearly as good without ai, their noise and hdr would be crap without it
Actually setting for manual not take much time. I alway put ISO in low. Only move the shutter speed. Unless you take the low light( night) photo you need adjust ISO.
Never thought a person could be philosophical while doing a phone camera review, but here we are.
xperia 1 V is meant to be used in Manual mode. if basic/auto, you're better off using s23 or iphone 14 pro max
yup the experia 1 series meant to be used for manual/S/A settings if u used auto the outcome sucks... but if ur good in using manual /s/a then the picture quality is well very superb... almost near to dslr/mirrorless like quality...
@@DreamWalkTv_1st although, phones are meant to be point and shoot.
I don't get why you'd shoot in basic on the Xperia and not 'Auto'. Auto is a much better automatic mode than basic and is reliable enough to use day to day.
A comparison on the cinematic mode wil be nice.
Can you compare the 1 Mark V with the Oppo Find X6 Pro and the Vivo X90 Pro+ ?🙏🏾🙏🏾
*_Although all three devices also have and use Sony sensors, the Xperia can't win at all things in Basic Mode but in Manual Mode, this Xperia 1 Mark V Humiliates competitors in color, shadows, contrast and in detail in general._*
if ur fun of just doing point and shoot then go for galaxy/iphone... if ur really a serious on doing manual control over subject in photography then go for sony xperia...
finally a reivewer that compares xperia's manual mode with the other phones.
You just became my favourite reviewer.
Good video dude thanks for it and keep doing more. I am waiting for iphone 15 pro coz i have a small hands plus to that i am expecting better quality cameras
S23u the best
Great video, thank you! Xperia 1V has been my smartphone for the last 15 days and I find that the best photos in basic mode are those at night, portraits, macro and/or in good daylight. It suffers a lot the contrasts light / shadow. The intervention of the AI is minimal, it seems to me, and this forces you to choose the best possible light conditions. Under these conditions the results are excellent and the colors very natural. Otherwise the Manual mode is the only solution. Xperia 1V is not a point and shoot smartphone, which is good and demanding
I have the s23 ultra and it's incredible but I want the Sony because I miss the micro SD card and headphone jack my s23 ultra had
I will wait for the Xperia1 VI🎉 still I enjoy my Xperia1iii 😂
yeah we are on the same boat... im definitely still very happy with my 1 iii, still has very good output... still love it... i'll upgrade only if my phone is already broken hahaha
Can't wait for my Sony preorder to arrive. The phone is obviously ready. Why does the U.S. have to wait until the 28th.
Would using the g camera app make it a better poi t and shoot option? That's the only thing that's keeping me from buying the Sony 😢
Just to confirm, are all photos manually adjusted where Xperia 1V photos are labeled manual? Or is it just the Sony that was manually adjusted?
Just the Sony
The Sony pictures usually look the best to me because they don't have layers of that weird HDR processing on them like the other two phones which kill all of the realistic highlights
Nice comparison video
It's hard to get a real feel for the comparison when you are only trying to manually override the settings in the Sony, but leave the other 2 to basic settings. It's not really a fair comparison. He should have at least included the Sonys auto/basic output with every comparison to get a real 'apples to apples' comparison, but he didn't.
This the perfect test Missing the Pixel though
What about Oppo?
@@piotrszmidel It is only available in China, not globally
xperia 1 V camera is looking very impressive to be honest.
That ending though!
another day without receiving my xperia, it's killing me, this waiting time, I think it's my last preorder ever :)) I wish they can fix this issue at first, the waiting for the device.
Guys, is it true that Sony refuse to take any 1 1V as part payment towards a new 1V?. In any country?. Are their still auto brightness issues and ghost touchscreen issues being reported on the 1 V?.
Yes Sony Xperia much more improvement nowadays...
Hopefully there’s a nice sale for Black Friday on these
I bought the Xperia 1 IV few months ago, but I bought S23 Ultra last week also, I like Xperia so much and that was my 3th Xperia phone, but that overheating issue made me aggressive every time and I do much photos and videos dayly, I took very beutiful photos and videos with Xepria, but as soon you upload the video on social media (TT, Instagram etc.) the video looses the whole quality
Sony appears to be very capable with tinkering. However, the comparison would be fair when all of those shot RAWs. Both S23U and 14PM take next level photos in hi Res RAW.
Good Test i have the Xperia 1IV
Sony 🦾👍
As a owner of a Xperia I iii, why use the basic mode instead of the auto mode? The other two you said you used the auto settings on them. Just find it would be more comparable if you also used it on the Xperia. That is my only concern and complaint. I love the content.
To be honest I'm not sure why the auto mode isn't just the default camera mode. I know what you mean though
WhatGear, это отлично проделанная работа! Спасибо тебе за такой раскрытый обзор! Я ждал человека который покажет возможности Xperia 1 V и именно в этом видео я его нашел!😉👍
I have the Ultra and I never use the pro mode. I mostly take pictures when traveling and it needs to be fast, so auto it will be.
Great video. It's truly a preference. But I love the Samsung result. Outstanding.
Xperia 1v is the winner
Untill now smartphone really hard to bypass the iphone video camera, i don't understand why? 🤔
WhatGear! Thanks Much !.......===
The new Sony sensor should be better than apple's
It is much better
It is. It can capture more light than the IMX 989 which is a huge 1 "inch" sensor.
@@pixels_per_inch I just hope it also looks good on social media people have the wrong notion that apple takes better photos because socia media lowers the quality of android flagships just the Pixel looks good the others supposedly have native support but it doesn't look like it 💔
@@axeviking4602 Yep, social media apps like to take a screenshot of the viewfinder rather than actually taking a photo on Android devices. Though Xperia phones don't look as bad because the hardware itself takes great photos, whereas other companies rely on lots of post processing (using AI and whatnot) after capture to make it look presentable.
@@pixels_per_inch Yea Sony should look great considering it's a better Sony sensor than any iPhone s23 ULTRA looks great but you have to upload from the gallery
if you like spending minutes to set the proper settings before taking a picture, just get a dslr rofl smartphone cameras are basically point and shoot. if it takes 100x more time to get "just as good" picture, it's not a good point and shoot camera
Exactly my thoughts! If it's that troublesome to set the white balance and exposure and iso, just buy the S23 or iphone. I thought the S23 Ultra was by far the better phone for most of these. Not all, but most.
There is an actual "Auto" mode he could have used, which likely would have provided better results than the "Basic" mode
Nice video ❤
Please include the OnePlus 10 pro or 11 pro and your comparison I believe either one of those phones would smoke all three of these phones I currently own the Sony and the Samsung but prior to owning these two I owned the OnePlus 10 pro. Of these three phones though seems like the iPhone lacks behind both Sony and Samsung I honestly think it depends on the picture you're taking between Sony and Samsung they both have a better picture than the other same with the video The videos they both have better videos than the other
Picture 1 shows the clear superiority of the Sony ethos, here. Check the foliage on the left. The Samsung does an awful job at rendering this. It's terrible. The Apple does a better job than the Sammy but it overshapens everything, giving a nast plastic edge to things. The Sony's image is clean, well balanced and simply,... Nicer. Why? Because Sony lets the HARDWARE do the heavy lifting. It doesn't need to overwork software to make it look good because the sensor and glass are superior. Better hardware with light touch software will always deliver better results than AI. Every time.
Yep, and it's not like it's hard to open snapseed / photoshop etc and give it a quick boost if you want to. The Sony's captures stand up well to cropping / retrieving shadow details etc....
Dubai arrival time????
