Sony Chip Shortage issue isn't Ending Anytime Soon - April 2022

The latest news coming from Japan, according to the dclife.jp website Kitamura (one of the largest chains of camera stores) suspended the sales of the sony APS-C range of cameras and also stopped taking pre-orders.

Orders for Sony “α6600”, “α6400”, and “VLOGCAM ZV-E10” have been suspended due to delays in parts procurement due to the effects of global semiconductor shortages. You can also check the notation “Cannot purchase”.

We have to understand the chip shortage is not only for the APS-C lineup of cameras, Sony is using all its available resources to keep up the supply of full-frame cameras.

TNC Take – So, what we are discussing here, is the impact that is visible to our eyes. Let’s discuss the un-seen impact of the chip-shortage aka semiconductor shortage

1. Upcoming APS-C Mirrorless Announcements Delayed

Sony will not repeat the mistakes again as they did in the past, they have under-estimated the chip shortage issue. Now, as usual until and unless the issue gets resolved we won’t see any new APS-C Mirrorless camera announcement from Sony.

Why is Sony only Facing such a huge impact, whereas Canon M50 Mark II & Nikon Z50 is in stock right now? So, possibly there are two strong reasons

1. Canon and Nikon are able to manage the situation better than Sony OR

2. Due to very high demand and popularity Sony is not able to cope with the market.

The second point looks more logical to me since Sony announced Sony ZV-E10 and Sony A7 IV just prior to the chip shortage issue, and undoubtedly both of the cameras features class-leading core specification at their price range. Sony is more trouble than other camera makers is only due to the high demand.

2. Semiconductors Shortage affecting the camera industry

Why the hell semi-conductors will affect the camera industry in any way?  But, I am from an engineering background and  I can assure you that nowadays semiconductors are being used in each and every device which can process data in any form.

3. The reason behind the Shortage of Chips in 2022 aka semiconductor

After doing a little research I came to know there are three basic factors responsible for the global chip shortage

  1. The COVID Backlog
  2. Expansion vs Demand (Semi-conductor manufacturing units expansion not happing as per the demand of the market)
  3. Crypto Currencies Miners raised the demand for semiconductor to the next level.

4. When will the Global chip shortage get resolved?

2022 will remain the way it is. But from 2023 we may see some sunshine. Intel helping our European Union to set up a semiconductor manufacturing unit there, TSMC (renowned chip maker) said it will invest $2.87 billion to expand production capacity in China. Many efforts have been taken worldwide in a big and small ways to resolve the chip shortage issue asap. So, the issue will get resolved but not very soon.

Canon 6D Beats Flagship Mirrorless Cameras in DR Test

A PDR (photography dynamic range) ranking report made by photos to photos website and believe me, reading the entire report is really very interesting. As usual, the report is full of very well capable and costly cameras. But one of the most eye-catching things in this entire report is the presence of Canon 6D(ML) with amazing dynamic range test scores, and surprisingly the PDR test score of these cameras is even better than the Fuji film GFX 50S medium format camera, not only that, you will find several other full-frame cameras below them which include Nikon Z6 Mark II, Z9, and the Sony Alpha A1.

How did they reach the top of the list since Canon DSLRs cameras are known for having less than average Dynamic Range than others in the market before the mirrorless era arrived? if you look at the report it’s really surprising how these DSLRs cameras are beating up today’s latest full-frame and medium format in the list.

magic lantern firmware Boosted the overall performance of the Canon 6D DSLR camera to the next level. As you can see, if we compare the 6D PDR with Canon 6D(ML), the DR range is boosted with increasing ISO.

We have already covered this in our previous post also that with the implementation of magic lantern firmware in Canon cameras the dynamic range is boosting up to a phenomenal level.

I am not encouraging anyone here to use the magic lantern firmware for Canon DSLR cameras to boost up their dynamic range. But it’s also important to shootout for the work done by the magiclantern.fm team, so we are able to witness the level of dynamic range coming out from these all DSLR cameras which was never possible with the original Canon made firmware.

I will just request to Canon and their team member reading this article, they must collaborate with these brilliant engineers who have modified the image and video decoding algorithms of the DSLR camera and their ability to dig out the maximum image quality possible from these old sensors. If they are able to collaborate with these guys, just think about the level of image quality we will be getting in upcoming Canon mirrorless cameras in near future.

The only known drawback of this camera is the absence of an external microphone port and a tiltable display screen.


2. Sony ZV-E10

Best APS-C Camera for Vlogging and casual Photography.

Available at Amazon.com | B&H Store

Best Lenses For Sony ZV-E10

Even in 2022 Sony a6400 camera is the best choice for Wedding cinematographers as well as casual photographers. The question is why you should buy the Sony a6400 camera instead of the Sony ZV E10 camera. The big reason behind that is the weather selling, which allows you to use this camera anywhere irrespective of the environmental condition you are facing. So if you don’t create YouTube content and you are a photographer or a wedding cinematographer then it would be better to buy a Sony a6400 camera instead of a Sony ZV E10.

The only known drawback of the Sony a7R 4 camera is the old menu and navigation system.

8. Sony A7S III

Low Light King of 2022

Available at Amazon.com and B&H Store

Sony A7S III is a lowlight king, the best camera I have ever used to create perfect cinematic videos and vlogs. The low-light performance of the camera is upscale with the help of the native Dual ISO feature which kicks in from ISO 10000. Definitely not a perfect camera for recomposition after the shot is done, but yet the most powerful low-light machine you can have in the year 2022.

No Rolling shutter issue, The AF is class-leading, New Menu System and introduction of S-Cinetone, Low-Light performance is insane … Best camera your money can buy. I highly recommend you if you professional photographer, cinematographer, or Vlogger, and lover to create high-quality content in low light then for sure the Sony A7S III camera is made for you.

Drawback Limited 12MP Sensor | Not suitable for those who love recomposition after shot.

 

9. Sony A9 II

Perfect Camera if you do weddings, sports, and wildlife  all-together

Available at Amazon.com | B&H Store.

24.2MP Full-Frame Exmor RS CMOS Sensor BIONZ X Image Processor & Front-End LSI

3.0″ 1.44m-Dot Tilting Touchscreen LCD 5-Axis SteadyShot INSIDE Stabilization
Dual UHS-II SD Card Slots, Voice Memos 5 GHz Wi-Fi, 1000BASE-T Ethernet

The highest-rated Sony Camera of all time, If you love speed then for sure the A9 II is made for you. A Single Sony camera that’s perfect for weddings, sports, and wildlife. The 20 fps continuous shooting speed is super fast and with the help of a 20 MP full-frame stacked CMOS sensor your every frame is rolling shutter free. Usable ISO up to ISO 3200 and AF tracking is tremendous. Actually while using this camera Sont tagline came to my mind – LIKE NO OTHER.   The Eye-AF is miles ahead of the competition, and being selectable between humans and animals makes it great for taking nature photos.  It’s $2k cheaper than the A1 (Save that money and get yourself Gmaster Lenses. You’ll thank me later.).

Drawback: Sony Old-menu system

10. Sony Alpha A1

Sony Flagship Camera

Available at Amazon.com | B&H Store

50MP Full-Frame Exmor RS BSI CMOS Sensor Up to 30 fps Shooting, ISO 50-102400
8K 30p and 4K 120p Video in 10-Bit 4.3K 16-Bit Raw Video Output, S-Cinetone
9.44m-Dot EVF with 240 fps Refresh Rate 759-Pt. Fast Hybrid AF, Real-time Eye AF
5-Axis SteadyShot Image Stabilization Dual Drive Mech. Shutter, 1/400 Sec Sync
5 GHz MIMO Wi-Fi, 1000BASE-T Ethernet Dual CFexpress Type A/SD Card Slots

Speed and Resolution – A Perfect Fusion of Sony A7R and A9 Series camera or even better than both. Recent tests and reviews from pros already proved that the Sony Alpha A1 flagship is better than Nikon Z9 and Canon EOS R3. The Z9 already underperforms in DR using N-Log, not much you can push and pull even when shooting in internal ProRes. The R3 is great, but 4k 120 isn’t as good, its DR for photos is slightly behind when you push and pull the image. DXOmark can say otherwise, but when you test the files the A1 still leads. Also, the R3 has a lower megapixel count by half compared to the A1 and is much bigger and heavier. Megapixels aren’t everything of course, but the fact that this camera can pretty much do everything the R3 does with a higher-performing sensor is a plus. Possibly the best camera out in 2021 and the beginning of 2022.

Drawback: High Price

 

Sony A7 IV vs Canon R6 - Best Camera for Sports Photography?

According to DPReview the 20fps electronic shutter mode of the camera is not so usable, so the usable mode is actually 12fps in mechanical mode … so the comparison should be made on 10 vs 12 fps

We believe you’re much more likely to see the distortion of the R6’s electronic shutter in action images than notice the loss of dynamic range of the Sony, so that leaves it as a 12fps* vs 10fps* battle that we’d struggle to choose between, by the time we’ve taken resolution into account.

The Canon promises most and probably deserves the bigger asterisk next to those claims. Its headline claim is the ability to shoot at up to 20 fps, but this requires that you use the electronic shutter mode, which is likely to distort your subject if it moves too quickly across the frame. Raw shooting drops to 12-bit mode (reducing the amount of dynamic range in the files) in electronic shutter mode. 

The Sony has fewer restrictions for its 10 fps mode, but there’s still plenty of small print. Again it drops to 12-bit when shooting continuous bursts and it can only maintain its full speed in the lossy compressed Raw mode, meaning less dynamic range and an additional risk of artifacts if you try to push the files too far. .

Canon EOS R3 vs Sony A9 II

The price of the Canon EOS R3 is between the Sony Alpha A 1 as well as the A9 II camera.

And before begin to compare the specification of both cameras, Since the price range of the Canon EOS R 3 camera is slightly high, The R3 is $6K, the A1 is $6.5K, and the A9II is $4,500. So we have to consider the price factor also while comparing the specification with a 9 II.

Later on, in the next few days, we will also compare the Canon EOS R 3 camera with Sony Alpha A1.

Basic Design Difference

If you talk about body design then, of course, Canon EOS R 3 camera is slightly larger due to the attached or inbuilt battery grip with it. The Biggest advantage of the inbuilt battery grip, the overall design of the camera becomes too professional and heat also helps professional photographers to operate the camera perfectly with more controls and additional battery backup.

Sony Alpha A9 II the camera doesn’t have that if you want to attach a battery grip you have to buy a whistle battery wave which is available somewhere around $300.

Let’s compare the image quality of the recently announced Canon EOS R3 camera with the ultra-popular Sony A9 II camera. We are comparing the highest test images of the camera in the comparison below.

Sensor image quality

As you can see in the images above, it’s great to see that Canon’s latest 24 MP BSI CMOS Stacked sensor of Canon R3 is at least producing the same level of noise as we have in the Sony A9 II Camera.

Now at the 51200 ISO range, you can see that the Color noise of the Canon EOS R3 camera sensor is very well controlled compared to the color noise we have in the A9 Mark II camera.

So, from the Basic test, it’s visible that the Canon EOS R3 Camera sensor can control the color noise in a better way compared to the Sony flagship camera sensor.

Canon EOS R3 Sony A9 II
Focus Type Auto and Manual Focus Auto and Manual Focus
Focus Mode Continuous-Servo AF (C), Manual Focus (M), Single-Servo AF (S) Continuous-Servo AF (C), Direct Manual Focus (DMF), Manual Focus (M), Single-Servo AF (S)
Autofocus Points Phase Detection: 1053 4779 selectable AF points Phase Detection: 693
Contrast Detection: 425
Autofocus Sensitivity -7.5 to +20 EV -3 to +20 EV

Both cameras feature class-leading autofocusing mechanisms inside them. Even if you compare as you can see in the table above the R3 camera is capable of shooting up to 30 frames per second whereas Sony Alpha A9 II can shoot up to 20 frames per second. So, if we compare the buffer then the Canon A3 camera does have a bigger buffer to capture or grab more frames compared to the A92.

And the next eye-catching thing is the autofocusing feature of the Canon EOS r 3 camera. So that’s an added advantage we are getting with Canon which is of course not present in Sony.

Conclusion

The overall specification of the Canon R3 looks very impressive, but we have to remember that both have a good price difference between them. So, if you are able to spend more you can also buy the flagship Alpha A camera. Or if you want to save a few bucks then A9 II is slightly better. But, in the end, if you are a Canon sensor color tone lover as I am then you have no option other than to move on to Canon EOS R3.
