Snoy bros...how common is this
>>
Extremely uncommon, proportionally less common than the pentax aperture block and autofocus motor failures and canon R5s falling apart. Less common than canon r6-1 circuitry failures (the r6-2 was solid tho). Less common than GH5 shutter and IBIS failures. Less common than S5II battery drain (affects nearly every single camera). Less common than fuji WR failures (standard, with the "resistant is not sealed" cope). Less common than nikon mirrorless recalls and shadow banding.

One lemon out of over 1 mil isnt bad, just ask this guy about lemons

https://fstoppers.com/reviews/hey-canon-why-are-your-cameras-falling-apart-636447
Or all the panasonic users who dont know what its like to leave a battery in and come back to a full charge

The a7iv alone outsold the entire nikon camera division, which had 5 recalls 3 of which rendered their top 2 cameras inoperable or unsafe to use. One lemon, even ten, is not a big deal. Ten dead snoys is as bad as one dead nikon.

Confirmed. Fake news. The dpreview post it came from is an ESL saying "my friend she was shooting in sea water and a wave hit her and she feel down now the camera will not on turn. do not buy sony saars.".

meanwhile, this is how sony performs when olympus review money and indians aren't skewing the results

Apparently the same camera is as freeze proof as the em1x
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmrjI0-9KJs
Something doesn't line up. Sony is meant to explode if it gets wet!

From what i've heard from non-biased sources, basically all weather sealing is pure luck and you should never get gear wet. But sony does pretty good considering the massive sample size (#2-#1 brand depending on the year). Another sony W.

Not reverse psychology shill. Fanboy. He is literally making fake lenses in photoshop to beg sony to make them real so he can buy one. He is obsessed with sony and posting about it all day because his dream camera is an a7cii with a theoretical 28mm pancake. It’s really taking a toll on his psyche. In his mind he can’t be a photographer until sony makes the perfect pancake. He refuses to use anything but a sony and is desperately trying to break away from his irrational love of this anti-consumer billion dollar company. But he can’t. He can’t even say something really bad about their cameras. His love for sony is too strong.

Not a problem I experience because I do not update right away. Therefore I have never cared about who releases the least buggy updates and can do cool shit like own and use an iphone and use imessage group chats.

if you want to compare companies, have fun, but real world use is different from dick measuring contests.

For the record I just gave you a laundry list of reasons to actually hate sony, things that actually affect the use of their cameras no matter what. The problems are baked in from v1 and have never been fixed. Some are going on a decade.

That's not salt, salt build up from sea water is not that fine, and it would not be only in the battery bay if it were. That is very obviously lithium build up from A) a poorly sealed battery and B) a poorly sealed battery bay. Smeared by the battery sliding out. If you had the capacity to evaluate any thought in your own head you would have reached the same conclusion, unfortunately you're a shill to the chinkazoid brand hivemind.

>>4368682
the flagship model of any years sony outsells entire brands, with a sample size, and a brand so common with internet attention wores, that large a few bad cameras being photographic for pity upvotes is inevitable.

when other cameras go kaput people dont take photos of them because they dont have another 200 cameras given to them for shilling on youtube. they make a whiny post on dpreview about how their say, olympus camera broke and then get 10 replies of people saying theirs works fine, that no one should think less of $brand and OP probably fucked up.

if sony had the s5ii battery drain issue i swear to god, there would be 5 youtube videos with dramatic thumbnails showing battery meters and "I LEFT MY CAMERA ALONE FOR ONE DAY" and /p/ would be spamming about it 24/7

Yeah, that isnt a legitimate issue. Wait to update like a normal person. Everyone has waited on updates since they accidentally the a1. Next. Using cameras IRL is not like measuring brand dicks. Its also weird how canons much bigger issue of r5iis coming out of the box uselessly buggy is totally ignored instead of the subject of 2 threads and 500 posts or OH NO NO from “clive who doesnt post here”.

Sony weather sealing isnt an issue

We can tell because of the amount of times youve been btfo and yet you feel so threatened by sony you keep spamming an a7iii that was fully immersed in the ocean and saying “DO NOT BUY SNOY SAAAARS”

You are shitting up the board with DO NOT BUY SNOY SAAR 24/7. Fuck off. Camera is fine. You are not a photographer, you are a /v/ transplant or a shill. We already know what actual photographers bitch about re: sony, its the first post in YOUR a7v thread.

Oh no sony fucked up one camera for something i never do. I should NEVER buy a sony and protest this common thing that already happens with canon, apple, and microsoft and never affects me there either. Or no, i dont think i care

Sony had no sealing until the fourth generation. Yeah, it was an issue. And everyone you reply to is not one person.

You lie. If the cameras are so bad you shouldnt have to lie. Ive seen plenty of proof of a7Xiii’s doing fine in rain and maybe 3 out of over a million failing, the same shit you get if you google “olympus om-d water damage”. No sealing? Why lie?

Why does fuji not get as much hate from their proportionally more common WR failures?

Dude my friend literally had an A7Riii fail in the rain. He got lucky and it came back to life after drying out. But it was not rare. He says he hasn’t had trouble with the IV, so Sony finally figured out rubber seals.
>>
>>4368758
Hurry up. All this dramatic hate is concentrated in hangouts of FAILURES. /p/, mu-43, etc. i have never seen it unless it was associated with major NGMIs and nobodies. Everyone else it seems can recognize a nonissue instead of measuring brand dicks and reposting the same saltwater immersed camera 20 times. These cameras must be amazing if the worst people in photography are on 4chan 24/7 posting straight up lies begging people not to buy them. They may be the best cameras on earth! They clearly inspire a sense of threat and fear among fanboys of nikon, olympus, and panasonic. They make canon fanboys mildly uncomfortable. Unless you are an actual photographer everything points to sony being the jews of cameras. Actually the best at everything and scary to people who just arent very good.

The only person i know who had a camera die in rain had an olympus om-d e-m1 iii. Sony has a real problem with labeling. They keep calling non WR lenses WR when i can look at the photos and see zero mount sealing and their hot shoe is an obvious short waiting to happen. Every WR success with an a7iii involves a newer G lens and a visible shoe cover. Shocking. I’m convinced it was always fine if you knew what to do - dont actually get it wet to impress youtube.

You should wait. It's undeniable that there has been some serious frantic, spastic, desperate, hysterical, lie-ridden sony hate on /p/ over the last 3 of weeks that's reminiscent of the 10+ threads of equivalence trolling when the g9ii came out and all the "its over for canikony" s5ii shill threads (and the total lack of s5ii exif on /p/ thereafter). Timed also perfectly with the announcement that sony is coming out with the a7v in q1 2025.

I mean really, having 3+ threads crying about pancakes?

This most likely means that sony is going to release something that is expected to curbstomp the fuck out of panasonic and make every hybridfag attention whore ditch their a7iv immediately, and a7ivs and older snoys are going to get very cheap. I'm thinking of picking up an a7iv or a7cii myself with a 20-70 f4, and keeping a micro four thirds around for the pocket camera/telezoom camera role.

WAGMI marketings effectiveness and its consequences have been a disaster for 4chan, btw.

(You should also note that /p/ surges with an unusual amount of canon, I mean, "cannot POS R" hate in the months prior to each new canon pro body, and then mostly silence and stragglers just repeating what they thought was a meme. pay attention, it's real)

At least you're looking at the A7Riii. The iv and v have worse high ISO noise than a 10 year old Canon. iii was a good sensor, just don't get the camera wet.

>... OH NO
That much is true. The only brands that haven't had a few dozen WR failures bitched about, simply don't reach enough people to try a decent number of cameras in the rain.
>>
>>4368787
Also sony does have a persistent design flaw regarding weather sealing - that being that they're designed as if it works.

ALL weather sealing lets some water in and you ignore that because rainwater is not very conductive. Small amounts here and there won't kill most electronics. In smaller, more compact bodies, more of that water is more likely to come in contact with circuitry long enough to cause errors. In a larger camera, granted its design affords the water some space to run and pool, the water is less likely to even touch anything electronic.

Sony cameras are the smallest, but also the most tightly packed. If water gets past the seals, which is assured with prolonged use, it is significantly more likely that water will touch a PCB. This is probably why you've heard of more om-5/em-5 WR fails than e-m1 fails other than the poorly built em1mk1, and why fuji cameras with supposed modern sealing fail in rain at a higher rate than DSLRs that were hardly sealed at all compared to todays shit. Interior space.

I was talking specifically about the A7Riv and v. The A7iv isn't as bad but did fall behind at really high ISOs. Even the A7s III lost a bit vs the A7s II, though it's still a low light beast.

Someone once bitched about an r5 failing here. If you ever look at how an r5 is put together, the rear is not very spacious. The front has a lot of air pockets. The r5 that failed had its rear continuously facing up, contrary to what canons designers expected (a normal strap).

WR reliance is posturing.

Dude, every A7R IV and V review notes their poor high ISO performance versus other cameras and the A7R III. It's not dpreview. If ptp disagrees then they're the ones who fucked up somewhere. Throwing in the R6ii isn't really fair (only 24mp) but it shows how the high resolution bodies compare to mid resolution on ISO.

yeah I don't care about your gay no mans land megapixel cameras, 62mp sony is the new 36mp nikon, a very gay cope number associated with noisier cameras than the surrounding product tiers, except the higher product tier is a fujifilm. Wanker cameras.

It's the power of keeping your camera alive. It's even in the IP rating that water gets in. How good it is basically depends on how much water can pool and where it runs after hitting the areas that get the most exposure, because all of the seals will crap out immediately or eventually.

I would take an e-m1iii into rain before an e-m5iii, and any DSLR over any mirrorless, specifically because of the proven assumption that weather sealing doesn't really do anything except slow the inevitable and a little space inside helps more than all the seam rubber that is rendered moot as soon as you use any controls. The larger the camera, the better protected the critical components should be (except canon shoves everything expensive to the rear so you should definitely not let water pool on the back of the camera like that retard from reddit). The smaller the camera, the more you should treat it like its pricetag implies you should.

No, he's in the back of ihop flipping my waffles.

But it's true the nikon pancake isn't real. Nikon really, really should have made that a normal lens and outdid sony's 24mm f2.8, which should not have been hard at all.

Because it's not a pure brandwar post?

Ok, fine, here you go

Guys, anyone who buys sony is simping for cucks, buy a panasonic s1r right now. I love my lumix. It has the best color science and lumix cameras never have reliability problems. L mount is the future. Everyone is excited to switch to sigma over those gay canon, nikon, and sony lenses.

Yes, it is not a real pancake. At least canon could figure out filter threads and good optics.

>>4368822
Alright, this shilling is getting a little too frantic. Which post touched on an uncomfortable truth and needs buried ASAP, shill?

Was it this one?

this is whats wrong with snoy users. you just know he uses red+cyan edits, presets, and holds his camera with one hand shooting while looking at the screen at f1.4 with an ND filter on in broad daylight

>>4368793
And together are not exactly praising sony, because size/weather sealing is a real compromise? Have you seen the screenshot of the guy whose om-5 died from being damp? And the only person to kill an r5 let water pool on the back of his camera.

If I didn't already know /p/ had paid panasonic shills, I'd think the sudden surge of dramatic snoyposting was a canon shill trying to distract people from how fucking bad the r5ii turned out to be.

>"moisture"
>"fogged eyepiece"
$100 says the idiot was taking the camera from freezing outdoors to warm indoors without putting it in a bag and giving it time to acclimate. No interchangeable lens camera can protect against this because the moisture in the air already in the body condenses from the rapid thermal change. The giveaway is "not a lot of water but some moisture." A seal failure leaves lots of water, condensation leaves moisture. Another giveaway is "my eyepiece fogs!" This is why water resistant military gear is nitrogen purged, but that doesn't work with lens and battery door openings.

It's shocking how many people don't realize this. Probably 90% of weather related failures, Canon or Sony, are actually due to this. When you walk indoors from cold temps, bag your camera outside and leave it in the bag indoors so it warms slowly. You can check your pics later.

Let me correct something I said: Probably 90% of weather related failures, Canon or Nikon, are actually due to this. 100% of Sony failures are because Sony can't figure out how to build a rubber gasket or a shutter. So in harsh cold weather the Sony died outside and got thrown out into the snow by the angry new Canon/Nikon customer.

Why do these threads keep getting made by this retard? The same thing happens on /o/ with cars that the OPs were never going to buy and just need to bitch about for some reason.
>>
>>4368455
Yes retard contact with water is what causes that to happen to the batteries. That is not salt in the battery bay, that is lithium.
>>
>>4368963
Rechargeable lithium batteries do not leak lithium. If one did you couldn't miss it because it would be right before bursting into flames. It's salt.
>>
>>4369019
Not sure what you have to gain by lying, sony one are known to be poorly sealed and have flaws in the casing. This happens all the time. Sorry, you lose, schizo.
>>
>>4369028
Retard, salt water got into the camera and left behind salt. A leaking lithium battery would be a burning lithium battery. Stop being a retard.
>>
>>4369034

Lol bro. Nikon selling like 4.5 times less cameras then Canon and 2.7 times less then Sony. Stop leaving in parallel Universe where you have Canonikon as big 2 players and everything else behind.

They sold less then a million cameras (all models) last year. Jesus Christ. I hope Nikon will get well someday.
>>
>>4369064
>They sold less then a million cameras (all models) last year.
thats because their products last for long and produce superb results. the D850 still outperforms most modern mirrorless when it comes to image quality. and it is built like a brick.
sony and canon cameras disintegrate when you look at them the wrong way. it's just plastic toy trash designed to milk wannabe influencers, OF models and wedding photogs (who go bankrupt after a few months anyway so the cam doesn't have to last longer than that)
>>
>>4369075

>>4369080
>no no, my snoy plastic toys are built very very strong

It's because Canon pictures look like real life straight out of camera, whereas Nikon pictures look like Ken Rockwell boomer slop

Sony weather sealing before the fourth gen bodies is dog shit and there was likely salt on other internal parts. The reason we know it’s salt is because, once again, a leaking lithium would ignite.
>>
>>4369315
Thats why there arent any videos of third gen sony cameras surviving hours of rain oh wait

Or maybe all weather sealing is useless and the sony sample size is large and dramatic on youtube enough for you to notice. There are dozens and dozens of forum posts about water damaged olympus cameras. And no one calls it scamlympus, but its scamlympus.

You mistake an artefact of statistics for reality.
>>
>>4369317
most people irl use a rain cover. weather sealing is a millennial influencer meme.

i have never seen a canon camera at a rainy sports game without a rain cover. ever. canon users have the best build quality and they know something we dont.
>>
>>4369317
>>4369319
Holy cope. I don't think I've even seen a rain cover IRL, maybe in a video, but I've seen plenty of Canon/Nikon/Olympus kits in the rain.
>nooooo they fail toooo!
I'm sure some do, manufacturing is not 100% perfect. Numbers and averages matter.

I'm sure this will trigger another 2-3 posts from SIDF. You guys are approaching m43 levels of cope. Truly the most hilarious thing that could happen would be if Sony abandoned FF and apsc for m43, merging the two most defensive brandfags on the Internet.
>>

>Numbers and averages matter.
If you find 10 whole dead snoys, that is in fact the same proportional number as one dead fujifilm from the same model year.
>>

That's sonyfags and fujislugs though

Fujifags dont write butthurt college essays defending their brand.
>>
>>4369324
Every layer of protection is one more to prevent damage. When your $30k business asset might stop working, you don't mind throwing a $10 tarp over it as extra defence.
>>
>>4369423
>muh theories
I've been around pros in bad weather. None of them were using rain covers. Idk maybe it's a Sony thing which would make sense.
>>
>>4369423
It is a tech, it is automatically a depreciating asset you mongoloid.
