Looking at all the wonderful things ML has been enabling with the 5D3, I was considering buying one myself for filmmaking and music video making purposes. However, I read up on the new Sony A7R releasing soon and it looks pretty impressive. I'm wondering weather that camera is about to change a lot with the DSLR video space. My knowledge is limited so I know I can use some clarity through guidance here. I just didn't want to buy a 5D3, right when a new technology came along that was more flexible for filmmakers. I would like some expert advice on weather my concerns are valid.
So far I understand that the A7R provides uncompressed video (not RAW) so that's some score in 5D3's favor. On the other hand, the A7R can do 60 fps 1080p video which is very impressive and useful for a filmmaker / music video maker like myself. A further discussion on these and other features and what they mean for the 5D3 + ML space would be greatly appreciated.
