Pros
- upgrading my camera from the a7iii to the A7Cii has truly been a game changer for me. ... But 10-bit SLOG-3 in the A7Cii has made run and gun shooting so much more enjoyable and effortless.
- a7CII is a really nice camera, an a7iv in compact rangefinder style body
- It is a bit old if you consider the new model like A7CII, which has a great autofocus compared to A7SIII because you can select the subject, like a car, a person and so on
- I have the a7cII and want to stress that the C stands for COMPACT! The whole point of the camera is to be small and portable. And it’s great for that. I don’t have any regrets on this thing. I travel, take it hiking, all that.
- A7CII. More compact, has IBIS, more MP allowing for crop, more lenses. Plus you don't care much about video so no brainer here.
Cons
- The AF is incredible and locks onto eyes with my A7Cii.

- When I started to analyze which camera to buy, I initially wanted the a7cii because it is practically the same size as the a6700. Then I started picking lenses and it became obvious that I will need to make some bad compromises to keep i...

When I started to analyze which camera to buy, I initially wanted the a7cii because it is practically the same size as the a6700. Then I started picking lenses and it became obvious that I will need to make some bad compromises to keep it light and compact, and then it turned out that the one compromise that solves everything is the a6700

The a7Cii is broadly more polished.
