Sony A7III vs. X-H1...Is the grass greener on the otherside?
1

Hello All,

I just came back from a wonderful time at WonderCon in Anaheim this past weekend. i finally got to give my X-H1 a real test of how I actually like to shoot (Instead of random shots indoors, etc.) and I have to say that it was a truly enjoyable experience. I wasn't sure if I'd like it much more than my X-T2, but it hands down beats the X-T2 in my opinion. I love every aspect of this camera and it just feels perfect in my hands!

...however...I can't help but be a little jealous of the newly announced Sony A7III...especially since, for the exact same price, I can finally make a move into Full-Frame territory. Something I've always been curious about. It does mean I'll have to switch systems and lenses, but maybe this is the right time to do so? As long as I have a 23mm, 35mm, and 56mm equivalents lenses, I'll be happy...plus, I'd finally get to use some of that really nice looking Sigma glass...but,, do I really want to switch? I don't know...

I REALLY like my X-H1 and do you really gain a huge IQ increase with full-frame? Maybe someone here can answer that and help my decision...
