Shop Sony A7iii

Let me start by saying that all brands of cameras are fantastic. I've shot with them all... including Nikon since I was 16 years old. I went mirrorless in 2020 and wanted to try Sony for the first time. I'm blown away by the precision of the focus, y'all! It's so sharp and accurate.

Shop this lens

When I shot Nikon, my favorite lens was always the 24-70 2.8. Now that I shot Sony... my favorite lens is still the 24-70 2.8. 😂 It never comes off my camera body.
