![]() ![]() There are better side-by-side comparisons with both Canon and Sony, however, if you consider just the 16-35mm f/4 lens for each system or, alternatively, if you simply take the f/2.8 versions of all three brands' respective wide-angle zooms. Instead, it relies on its 14-24mm f/2.8 to fulfill that role which is something that neither Canon or Sony have. For example, Nikon does not have a fast, f/2.8 version of its 16-35mm lens. Comparisonīecause of the various lens selection available (or lack thereof) for each brand, there are a few alternate options. The kits below compare price and weight of the full systems and individual items, but they're also an excellent place to start for side-by-side comparisons of these factors that might weigh heavily in your purchase decision for a new kit. The bodies we're considering are the newly released Canon 6D Mark II, the Nikon D750, and the Sony a7 II. ![]() These are the f/1.8 little sister primes of the f/1.4 (OK, Canon lovers, f/1.2 in your case) kings. Second, we have the holy trinity of primes: the wide-angle, normal, and portrait f/1.4 primes that everyone lusts after for bokehlicious (should I be embarrassed for using that word?) backgrounds and fast, wide-open apertures good for night time camera slingers.įinally, we'll consider the standard, affordable prime lens sets that are usually about a half-stop slower, but also both lighter and less than a third the cost, of the holy trinity primes. As such, these are a likely consideration for anyone investing in a full-frame system. These are the bread-and-butter f/2.8 zooms with which many wedding and event shooters make their livings. The first lens kit will be the holy trinity of zoom lenses. So here, we're comparing the most affordable full-frame bodies from Canon, Nikon, and Sony along with three types of lens kits. While there's value to covering many more brands such as Pentax, Olympus, Fujifilm, and more, which have each introduced their own cameras worth considering, we have to draw the line somewhere. But we're concentrated on (let's face it) people like me. Sure, APS-C cameras have come a long way, and there are plenty of professional options and reasons to start, or even stay, there. If you're starting to get serious about photography, you're probably looking at your full-frame options. Scroll down to the conclusion for the final advice, or read on to get all the details. Let's dive into a comparison based on what we'd actually get. It was a good first effort, but with a number of the zoom ranges of the cheap lens kits overlapping and with the results slightly skewed toward Nikon with a few interesting and cheaper not-quite-equivalent options included (and I'm a Nikon fan, even), the video didn't quite do it for me. First and foremost, none of the combinations of lens kits were anything that any reasonable person would purchase together. NikonRumors has a great summary of that video, but there were a few issues in there. YouTuber Duncan Dimanche recently published a video that compared the price and weight of an entry-level full-frame kit from four different brands, including Canon, Nikon, Pentax, and Sony. But what about the full-frame mirrorless cameras? Of course, we're now talking about Sony's a7-series cameras. But for professionals coming from the top DSLR brands, they'll be lacking in speed, versatility, and sensor size (not to mention ISO performance), as they're all APS-C-based. or are they? If you're thinking of Fujifilm's X-Series cameras, you'd be right. They're faster, cheaper, lighter, and more compact. The DSLR establishment is extremely interested in the possibility of mirrorless cameras, and rightly so. ![]()
