Would it be correct to assume that Canon 5D Mark III/IV is the Macbook of computers or an iPhone? If so, is Nikon the equivalent of a Windows PC or an Android phone? Which one is the underdog here?
That is literally the shittiest nonsense analogy ever. It doesn't even make sense.
The 5D is not a TREND statement. It is a tool for professionals and for serious hobbyists. It's expensive price tag is not the same attitude as Macbook or iPhones being so expensive. Both the 5D and the Nikon equivalent are fantastic tools.

leica is the Apple of photography. You pay extra to get a camera that is worse than fuckin everything else p much
>>3085349
I'd the Sony is the Android of the camera world, but yeah Canon is totally the Apple in the camera world.
>muh vivid colors
>muh aesthetics
and then there's Sony that does what you want it to do with very high quality pictures, perfect color, lots of customization, etc. That's my experience with both brands anyway.
That all being said I'm typing this out on an iPhone lmao
>>3085379
Consumerism at its finest.
I thought up until now that the sony memes here were overly exaggerated, but damn they were right.
Sony is really the plebian's choice when it comes to cameras.
>>3085379
Sony is the winphone of Cameras
>but muh better SPECS
>but muh higher NUMBRZ
>but muh compact BODIES
>but muh RX100
>>3085389
better specs, numbers, body, and the beast of a compact, the RX100 and you're fucking retarded enough to not embrace that. I've gone from Nikon to Canon and now to Sony and it's simply the best out there, period. Please tell me what's wrong with them besides
>WAHH WAHH MUH SONY SHILLS
>>3085384
> using "(insert camera brand) memes" as a viable argument against a superior system.
Anti Sony shills are worse than actual Sony shills. At least they have a reason to shill, all you're doing is calling them shills and discrediting any valid facts they bring as "Sony shilling", with no actual facts against it.
Off yourself.
>>3085394
It's literally Sony Shills.
And the "they never post any pictures" meme is fucking real too.
I know two Sony users and both of them just wank over lens numbers and whenever they see a picture they zoom in to find the noise. They are on an Event just wanking over their lenses and their shutterspeeds, shooting trees hundreds of meters away to compare the fine detail instead of looking for actually interesting things to shoot.
Fucking hell, I watched them argue that a 24-70mm wide parfocal OSS lens is bad because if it wasn't, E-Mount would have one.
It's literally Sony shills.

that sounds awful lmao, if I were on wifi rn and didn't have 200mb of data left I'd post a pic. I dont fw native Sony lenses anyway, so I can't comment on that. But yeah gear faggotry is pretty bad in general, particularly with Sony shills but it happens to all groups more or less.
>>3085395
You are the epitome of cancer, go for what ever brand you want, but professionals are not using sony toys.
Why is it that people who buy Sony stuff need to validate themselves so much and talk others into it. Is it that they are not really trying to convince others but themselves here? This some next level buyers remorse by proxy.
I saw "Sony Shills" and I had to respond.
Which direction do I tip my fedora first?

Hey, look, it's another Sony bitch thread.
Nobody cares. Use the gear that works for you and disregard the rest.
>>3085401
>Why is it that people who buy Sony stuff need to validate themselves so much and talk others into it.
Because people constantly attack Sony for the fact it's Sony and
>muh Sony shills
autism, the thread.
>>3085406
A99II is the comfiest camera I've ever shot with, and I've rented 1DX and D810i and loved every moment with those.
Nothing says "muh dick" like the flapping of a Nikon, and 1DX just feels like a vault door.
Having killed an A99, these cameras ARE tough, they just have a shit ton of features that most never take the time to learn.
Sony users here need to calm down with attack threads admittedly but then again, every day it's a Sony hate thread.

Sony people are literally as stubborn and brainless as Trump supporters. They never give up and always remind you of all the things packed into their sony.
>REMEMBER HOW WE WON THE ELECTION WITH IBIS?
>REMEMBER HOW WE WON THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE WITH HIGH ISO PERFORMANCE?
>REMEMBER HOW WE TOOK A PICTURE OF OUR (NON EXISTENT) CROWD SIZE WITH A SONY SHOWING BILLIONS OF PEOPLE?
Like Trump supporters, they don't actually SUPPORT Sony, they support slinging shit at NON SONY users. They are in it just to see non-sony people react. They aren't actually active, progressive, or motivated to do anything other than shill their brand and get reactions.

I'm sure there's gaslighting from Non-Sony users who are gear lusting but I've seen so many Sony cameras in Times Square lately that I'm basically impressed. It explains why the Sony Store in the city has Artisan walks all the time, went to one a few weeks back and really sharpened up my portrait skills.

Sony users don't know how to admit fault or that they might be or are wrong. Any attack on them is an attack on their persona and everything they believe in. Constructive criticism is out of the question for them.
If you can't take that kind of criticism, how can you ever be a good photographer at the very least?
Hint: You won't.

Your judgement is severely impeded by your hatred for either Trump or Sony users. You force presuppositions on both based on characteristics seen in the other. Basically you WANT Sony users to be like Trump supporters so you can justify illogically hating both. You're a pathetic human being.
