Shopper conversation with Courtney B on June 28, 2016

Courtney B
Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at the Canon 5D Mark III?
Did you have some questions about this camera tonight?
yes
Courtney B
Ok, great!
What questions do you have?
what is the top pro dslr on the market now?
i would like to know that answer
Courtney B
The Canon 1DX Mark II would be the top option from Canon
And the Nikon D5 is the top option from Nikon
The cameras are very comparable
witch is the mercedes of the cameras top leader?
Courtney B
We sell an equal amount of both of those
needs to be 1 camera
Courtney B
They're both top quality
Do you prefer one brand over the other?
i'm sony photographer
Courtney B
Ok
i do have 9 sony cameras
never try canon or nikon
Courtney B
Nice!
i do have a 7II,7R,A99,A6000,A77II,
Courtney B
All very nice cameras!
AND A100
Courtney B
Great!
What types of things do you shoot?
do i miss something important against canon or nikon?
Courtney B
Not at all
In this case, they're both very fast cameras
WILD,PORTRAITS,EVENTS,FASHON,SPORTS,BEACH,KIDS,PETS
Courtney B
The Canon shoots slightly faster and has a larger viewfinder
But the Nikon has a lot more focus points and longer battery life
Image quality is extremely comparable
REAL ESTATE,COMMERCIAL,PRODUCT
Courtney B
Ok!
Both would be adequate for that!
When I start with Sony-everybody laught on me
Courtney B
That's too bad! Sony makes fantastic cameras!
they said,that Sony is not a pro cameras
Courtney B
Well, the joke is on them. Because it certainly is!
so I all the time thing ,that I may made mistake spending so much money on Sony's
Courtney B
Not at all
I do have a 7--400 g lens
70-200 G LENS
Courtney B
Ok!

Courtney B
Well it sounds like you have a really great setup!
I'M WORRY ABOUT THE CAMERA-DO I HAVE THE RIGHT CAMERA
Courtney B
You have fantastic cameras!
LOW LIGHT CAPABLE
Courtney B
Some of the best on the market
The a7II and a7R do really well in low light
A lot of real estate photographers use those cameras successfully
in what state you are?
Courtney B
Adorama is located in New York
I never spoke with anybody who is pro
learn by my self everything so far
Courtney B
That's great!
o,ok
Courtney B
I know a lot of great photographers that are self-taught
I do have a great results,but I 'm looking to acieve much more
Courtney B
Ok.
To be honest, the gear that you have is about as good as it gets. You should be able to do just about anything imaginable with the gear that you have
is canon 50 mgp is better than A7rII?
Courtney B
No. I wouldn't focus on megapixels
Those only matter if you crop a lot in post processing or if you need to blow a photo up to billboard size
I do have a problem when I have to shoot in the church with low light
Courtney B
Have you tried using a tripod to help lower your shutter speed?
they don't allought flash,because the video streaming in it.
Courtney B
Ok
That makes sense
Sometimes in instances like that, I think it's fine to embrace the noise and grain
I love crispi high quality images,but the are not in there
Courtney B
Ok
Well, something like the Nikon D5 would be slightly better
i don't noisy pictures
Courtney B
Ok
adorama is a great store
Courtney B
It is! :-)

Courtney B
