full frame only for lots of night time shooting. even then lightroom NR is crazy good.

imo bag ergonomics > camera ergonomics. So get the camera and everyday lens you intend to use, then find the best possible bag you can get. It will spend 95% of its time slung around your shoulder than in your hand.

im sony ff and i want to downgrade to crop. smaller. lighter.... as they say "The best camera is the one you have on you" So you want to make it as easy to carry around as possible.

I thought you made this thread already not long ago? Canon ftw obviously, ways better ergonomics , plus I’d love to have the onboard focus stacking and not having to do it in post .
Pretty much the best camera out there for the price atm imo

That’s easy , go to a camera store and hold them both in your hands . Sony is like holding square box , no ergonomics whatsoever. Canon just feels like it was made for my hands .
Kind of mirin Canons menus to . Once you learn them they’re extremely similar for most of their other mirrorless offerings.
Sony is king in the glass department with the most amount of options, but I don’t see where you can’t cover everything with Canon glass .

I’m not sure if Sony has internal focus stacking yet, but the canon mark 3 does and I’d love to have it

I’m not sure if the OP is doing any sports photography, but Sonys top camera with the global sensor eliminates rolling shutter ,but at the expense of higher noise apparently
