With the release of the Sony A7 SIII on July 28th at 10am Est, people are lining up everywhere to have the latest greatest Sony Video Hybrid. In this painfully boring video we take a step back to have a brief chat about making a big camera purchase and whether it is a good idea, and if you really NEED it.

This is not another A7sIII review, this is a reality check..

Cheers,

Cliff & Kajun
