Switching to Sony From Canon: 3 Years Later
Here are my honest and unedited thoughts after 3 years of using Sony mirrorless cameras. Overall the experience has been awesome, but there are definitely some rough points that make me unsure of whether or not I'll stick with the Sony system in the future.
I hope this is a helpful retrospective. I do really like my Sony cameras, but wanted to be honest about areas of frustration. And I thought the unedited approach was a good way to go since I already have nicely edited full reviews for each camera. Sometimes it's fun to just hang out and talk about cameras!
