I've become increasingly frustrated with the colors and tonal transition of my A7RII, and I think FF in general. (If anyone has any A7RII skin tone tips, let me know). I'm thinking about acquiring a P65+ or IQ160. I believe the largest sensor will yield the best result with regard to color transitions.
I had previously owned a Leaf Aptus-II 5 (44x33/22mp) & 645AFD. I thought the colors might have been slightly better than the A7RII, but it was close. However, I've since realized my lighting at that time was very sub-optimal.
One huge problem for me was the totally useless autofocus and the impossibility of reliably focusing manually. I get ~95% in focus with the A7RII fairly wide open. I only got like 50% dead-on focus with that 645AFD (F/4 @ ~5ft). I know that if I'm missing 45% more shots, it doesn't matter how much better the color transitions are, the end results are going to be worse due to good shots being missed.
So, if I get a P65+ or IQ160, is there any option for autofocus (at wide apertures) that is practically useful? Or any significant improvement over the 645AFD? I've never used a Hasselblad, what about the Phase One XF?
Am I right in my belief that the aforementioned MF backs will give me better colors?
