I know these are two new cameras that just came out and I do have them both and I have not spent a ton of time on the A77II yet but they are basically the same sensor and I did put some time in on the A6000 by a several hundred frames doing PR work. Anyway my point here is this and I have to actually give Sony some real credit here. Yea the bodies and functions may not all be what folks want or after but the bottom line is the sensor and everything I have thrown at this sensor has proven to be just damn right good. Crappy english there but who cares, this ain't 1990 technology anymore this sensor is maybe the best I have seen in this format. If there is one thing I have noticed comparing it to the A7r sensor is color depth and this maybe the only area I would give a negative comment, the good news you can fix it in post. What i have noticed and this maybe due to some DR as well but the colors are just a wee bit flat.
What i have done is just add about +8 points of saturation to bring that back up a little. I would love to run more tests and such and I am getting LR under my belt a little better and it seems to do a nice job on the Sony files, don't tell anyone I said i liked LR i will get beat up by the C1 cronies. LOL
Anyway testing is going to be out as i am getting busy preparing for NY and have several big jobs starting next week but I do love the A77II AF focusing as I think very very good. I wish they could pull that over into the 7 series as it is focus tracking like I never seen before. Its damn cool
