Sony a7IV: B&H Photo / Amazon / Adorama
Canon R6: B&H Photo / Amazon / Adorama
The Sony a7IV came out around one year after the Canon R6 so it has a bit of an advantage, but it is still an interesting comparison considering how much Canon has improved the R6 via firmware updates over the years. Below is a summary of the above comparison:
- Can’t agree on which camera handles the best so Jordan jumps in and declares the Canon the winner
- Sony has more megapixels 33MP vs 24MP
- Both have similar dynamic range
- Canon bakes in noise reduction
- Sony is the winner for sensor quality
- Canon has improved its AF, but Sony is still the king of autofocus
- The Canon has good AF for photos, but not as good for video while Sony is great at both
- Sony clearly wins AF
- Canon has 8 stops of IBIS while Sony has 5 stops of IBIS
- Canon wins IBIS
- Canon can burst faster so it wins if you machinegun shoot
- Sony has some rolling shutter compared to Canon so it wins video
- Sony gets 580 shots on one battery and so does Canon according to CIPA
