Sure, shooting action can be done manually, but it requires practice and a strategy. Even with both, you'll still have quite a few shots out of focus. Why even do this when there's autofocus????

My new a7iii with an EVF is also excellent in battery life too. My Nikon D750 is a little better than both, but not by much.

I added the A7 body system to keep access to full frame. The RX10 allows up to 600mm Zeiss optical quality and the A7 with its Zeiss lens selection is the cherry on the cake. |

[QUOTE=HHP;5831336] Leica does offer an M series camera in digital but you'll need to mortgage the farm to afford it.
Leica continues to try to rely on their optical name but every digital photography review site states unequivocally that Sony destroys them at a fraction of the cost. Sony is making most of the top high-quality sensors and combining that with Zeiss lenses- top tier all the way. |

Mirrorless would be great, I just can't justify the cost with such a good DSLR setup. My focus needs to be on shooting and printing with the great gear I have. I can always rent it if I' want to check it out. Funny, they don't actually let me "borrow" any lenses. They seem to want money... So many great options out there now. |

The GH5 also provides 4k/60fps, 10 bit internal recording, and better HDMI out as I understand it. The GH5S uses larger photosites/lower pixel count for improved DR and low light, but Sony still kills in those measures. Fran

Not surprised to hear the battery life is shorter, given the bright digital viewfinder. Easily solvable with some backup batteries though...

Agreed! That's one of the features that makes the a7iii so attractive. Hopefully that battery will make its way to the much-rumoured APS-C successor to the a6500.

i think the only real advantage of the mirrorless current stock is size and weight, i prefer a DSLR and wider selection of lens- truly good used deals to be had, i also prefer and optical viewfinder, even though the DSLR is capable of showing a preview on the LCD, really, some of these cameras are 30 megapixels, how many do you really need? to cram them in there they make them smaller and sensor has less dark sensitivity, i prefer not to increase the ISO and gain, i dont know but, i presume a DSLR has better hear disbursement over the smaller camera- for long exposure and extended low light shooting, this really matters

Again, I think everyone who just blanketly prefers optical viewfinders, have not tried the current EVFs. I didn't like the EVFs a few years ago and FAR preferred optical viewfinders. I honestly thought I'd never like EVFS. Now, I prefer the EVFS.

I still have my original K5 but prefer my K3. If a mirrorless Pentax should ever come out, I’ll have to give it a serious look.
