aquabluedreams Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Do a lot of day hikes and typically I go from shooting animals to landscapes as we go along. I don't like switching lenses on the "run" so bring my A7RIII with the Sony 12-24mm on it for landscapes and the A7III for animals with the Tamron 28-200. But when shooting smaller animals I miss the megapixels to crop when shooting A7III. Switch or just deal with it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XKAES Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 When I'm hiking, weight -- and the nuisance of TWO cameras around my neck -- mean just one camera and one lens. But I usually have a pack as well. If you are comfortable with two cameras, I'd use the A7RIII for the animals so you can crop. Otherwise sell the A7III and get another A7RIII -- or get used to swapping lenses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebeardedgroundsman Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I think I agree with XKAES, to have the 7Riii with the long lens - to allow for cropping and the A7iii for the wide angles. If you then see a landscape you want a high def image of, you can always take your time to switch your wider lens to the Riii, but doing it the other way (as you do presently) I would have thought you might miss the shot if you feel you need to switch lenses.
