I'll just add, R2 and I would be LOST with those Sony eco system menus and buttons you mention, you've said that yourself about the older Sony's -
The problem with photographers just starting out is they don't know what to look for. If you know what you're looking for you'll find it, although it might cost some time. Youtube is your friend.
sometimes
until you start dealing with complexity like, for example, do older models have the full mechanical shutter to deal with cut-off bokeh for those of us who hate using filters
Go to the Sony forum, ask a question, read 10 answers the next day and you'll know it. It takes time which is frustrating, especially if you have to find out a whole lot of complex things, but it's doable.
Those menus s*ck when setting up the camera,
your model and the newer models are better,
o.k.
they would be the first ones to make entry a possibility for many like me, but the older ones fail for me
feature set is important also, for example, everything before the m6II failed for my purchase of m also, for some lack of feature sets
but once you've customized the dials, the C-modes, the "my menu", and tweaked the settings as preferred you can forget about 95% of that menu, and after 3 weeks it's not a problem anymore.
unless you are old and forgetful like me,
With modern cameras everybody is relatively forgetful. Too many settings.
it's crazy isn't it
that said, I love the customization the m6II offers
where my Canons share logical controls that I can more easily locate and operate across models in the heat and pressure of shooting events, where one of the worst things would be if I was observed pondering a long time how to operate one of my event cameras
Logical menus rule.
yes they do
All I know is the A6600 was doable for me, and for the A7IV all I did so far is watching Fro's basic guide of around 1:30 (that's pretty boring by the way if you're not a very beginner) to get a helicopter view. This menu structure is better than the A6600. It certainly helps I did setup the A6600, as some things are the same.
The most difficult part: what setting should I want. For instance: focus priority, shutter priority or balanced?
I could never get this right with my 7dII
I'm leaning towards the first..... but if you're camera refuses to take the shot because it thinks something else is the subject and that something else isn't in focus....
in the big picture, from what I've read and seen, you my friend, have just bought in to your favorite focal length and the best 50 f1.2 on the planet!
50 fov is my favorite focal length also on high mpxl because I can crop and don't need 85 fov as much, love my compact 32 f1.4 on high mpxl m6II that will never see the light of day on RF mount, it is too good, and would take sales away from Canon's expensive FF stuff
