Which Is Better Under What Circumstance? — Sony a7ii Vs Nikon D750

Sony a7ii	Nikon D750
The Sony a7ii is the better of the two in situations where the photographer has to capture an image in a poorly lit environment.  Its high ISO rating (that is twice the value of the Nikon D750) is responsible for this.	The Nikon D750 camera has a good low light ISO rating. The photographer can easily obtain a balanced exposure using this camera in overly lit areas. This goes a long way in ensuring that the image is of good quality.
The Sony a7ii camera is also the better of the two cameras in situations where the photographer has to be precise in obtaining a very good shot. Its 117 focus points make it easier to obtain quality images in the unlikeliest of scenarios.	The Nikon D750 camera has an awesome battery life. Its 1230 shots battery life rating easily makes it our preferred choice in situations where the photographer has to carry out a project that requires framing for long.
The Sony a7ii has image stabilization. This makes the camera the better of the two cameras in still photography as its lenses are well stabilized.	The Nikon D750 is the better of the two cameras when a photographer has to shoot in a fast paced environment. The 6.5 frames per second rating of the camera is responsible for this.

Common Features Of The Sony a7ii Vs Nikon D750

Here are the features common to the Sony a7ii and Nikon D750:

i. Low ISO

ii. Continuous shooting

iii. Wireless connection

iv. RAW support

v. External flash hot shoe

vi. Sensor resolution

vii. Face detection focus

viii. External microphone jack

ix. Headphone jack

x. Weather sealing

xi. Auto exposure bracketing

xii. Smartphone remote control

xiii. Video mode

xiv. Articulating screen

We will now look at each of these features in detail…

i. Low ISO

ISO is the measure of how responsive a camera’s sensor is to light.

That said, the Sony a7ii has a 2449 low ISO rating while the Nikon D750 has a 2956 low ISO rating. And in both cases, we are looking at a pretty decent ISO.

The good low light ISO rating of the two cameras allows the user of either camera frame well in environments where light is excessive.

In other words, low ISO is a life saver in situations where there is excess exposure. The low ISO ensures that the photographer still obtains an image of balanced exposure.

ii. Continuous Shooting

The Sony a7ii has a continuous shooting rate of 5 frames per second while the Nikon D750 has a continuous shooting rating of 6.5 frames per second. The average continuous shooting rate of the two cameras might be sufficient.

Continuous shooting helps capture several photographs just by holding down the shutter for a long period. This is mostly needed in fast moving environments. Continuous shooting makes sure the photographer hardly misses out on an important action in any such environment.

Continuous shooting makes the two cameras relevant in the aspect of sports photography.

iii. Wireless Connection

In-built wireless connection allows for the transfer of files from the camera to other devices without the use of wires or cords. It is a better medium of transfer than the old use of wires and cables.

Wireless connection also makes it possible for the user to upload images or videos to the internet directly.

iv. RAW Support

When shooting RAW, minimally processed data or images are saved from the image sensor.

A lot of benefits are attached to the photographer shooting RAW. One is that you get to edit your files without destroying the quality of the image.

Another advantage is that the RAW format allows you to easily adjust the white balance. This is in stark contrast to what is obtainable in the JPEG format where the white balance is automatically applied to the image.  

v. External Flash Hot Shoe

The external flash shoe is a provision made for the attachment of an external flash.

An external flash allows you work at a faster shutter speed than the in built flash. This is so because external flashes have a special high speed synchronization mode that allows the photographer shoot at a high shutter speed.

External flashes also give room for flexibility in usage as they do not necessarily have to be mounted on the camera’s hot shoe before they can be used. The photographer can decide to place them on a bracket, light stand or a mini stand.

The external flash is also more appealing to professionals than the in built flash as it allows them have more precise control when carrying out flash photography. This is as a result of the different customizable options that are available for this feature.

vi. Sensor Resolution

Both the Sony a7ii and Nikon D750 have a good sensor resolution ratings. Sensor resolution determines the quality of image a camera will produce to a large extent.

The Sony a7ii and the Nikon D750 both have a sensor resolution of 24 megapixels. Both cameras also have the same pixel size (5.97 micro meter) and close values in terms of sensor pixel area.

That said, with 24 megapixels, the user of either camera has room to print images as large prints. It also gives them a lot of freedom in the aspect of cropping.

vii. Face Detection Focus

In digital camera, face detection refers to the ability of the camera to automatically distinguish the human face from other elements in an environment.

Face Detection helps the photographer to focus more while framing, helping him leave out every unnecessary detail in an environment. 

Face detection also works in live view as attested by users who have had to use it in the past. The face detection capacity differs from one camera to the other (depending on the manufacturers’ preference).

Face detection is very key when the photographer does more of portrait photography as it helps to properly focus on the face of the targeted human.

viii. External Microphone Jack

Knowing fully well that it is difficult for a photographer to get the optimal audio quality in a video using only the inbuilt microphone as a result of the flaws of the in built microphone, we cannot overstate the importance of this port on the camera.

External microphones are the better option because they only pick up necessary sound. This cannot be said of the on camera microphone that captures unwanted sound such as mechanical noise as a result of the photographer is handling the camera.

ix. Headphone Jack

The headphone jack is a big plus to the photographers (especially the ones that do video recording) at large as it allows them evaluate the quality of sound at the point of recording.

Using a pair of headphones helps the photographer record videos that have top notch audio quality.

x. Weather Sealing

Weather sealing is basically the protection of the parts of a camera from certain external conditions (which are mostly splash or dust).

We can’t overstate the importance of weather sealing in cameras as it goes a long way in affecting the operability of the camera.

The Sony a7 camera in particular is splash and dust sealed. This makes it safe to use in conditions where there is so much dust and where water could easily splash on the camera.

xi. Auto Exposure Bracketing

In photography, AE bracketing is the technique that involves the photographer taking different shots of the same image with differing exposure settings

In Auto Bracketing, the first shot of the object is correct exposed, another is underexposed to light, while the third (and last in most cases) is slightly over-exposed to light.

The whole idea of Auto Bracketing is to make life easier for the photographer in terms of finding the best exposure settings for different scenarios.

xii. Smartphone Remote Control

To be able to use this feature effectively, the user has to have the camera app installed (and up to date) on the particular smartphone that is to be used.

The user also needs the camera and smartphone to be connected over the same network connection. The inclusion of this feature on the camera helps to relieve the photographer of the stress of having to manually use the camera to frame at all times.

xiii. Video Mode

Both the Sony a7ii and the Nikon D750 are good for recording videos. The chief reason for this is that they both have a video resolution of 1920 by 1080.

The Sony a7ii and the Nikon D750 camera can record up to a frame rate of 60 frames per second at the afore mentioned resolution.

xiv. Articulating Screen

Articulating screens are the type of screens that can be repositioned in different directions. Shooting with an articulating screen relieves the photographer of some stress and it has some advantages.

One such advantage is that the articulating screen allows the photographer get creative when shooting. This is so because the photographer can (to a large extent) frame without restrictions in terms of directions.

Unique Features — Sony a7ii vs Nikon D750

Which comes with a built-in flash: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Nikon D750 has a built-in flash. It pops up automatically when needed and can also be triggered manually. The built in flash can also be hidden or locked down when not in use.

This built-in flash has some advantages to it. One of such advantage is the fact that it is less obtrusive when used. It is not unsightly (as is the case with the external flash) when it is in use.

Another advantage is that the inbuilt flash is readily available to be used by the photographer.

Which has a viewfinder: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii camera has an electronic viewfinder while the Nikon D750 has an optical viewfinder. A viewfinder is a camera component that shows the photographer the area of the subject that will be included in the photograph. Viewfinders are an integral part of the range finder focusing system.

The two different types of viewfinders have their own respective advantages.

For instance, the Sony a7ii camera has an electronic viewfinder which makes it easy to project additional shooting information into the framing view whereas the optical viewfinder offers a lag-free viewing.

The two cameras also differ slightly in the aspect of magnification. While the Sony a7ii camera has a magnification of 0.71x, the Nikon D750 has a magnification of 0.7x.

Higher magnification helps to ensure that the images shown on the viewfinder appear closer to the size of the image seen with the human eye.

Which has the better battery life: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii has a battery life of 350 shots per full charge, while the Nikon D750 has a battery life of 1230 shots per full charge. These battery life ratings are not surprising as Nikon has a track record of producing really great batteries.

Which has more focus points: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii has 117 focus points while the Nikon D750 comes with 51. The more the auto-focus points present in a camera, the higher the level of ease at which the photographer can focus on the targeted image. Auto-focus points are also important in an overcrowded environment as it helps to isolate the targeted image with much precision.

Which has the faster shutter: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii has a shutter speed of 1/8000 second while the Nikon D750 that has a shutter speed of 1/4000 second. The duration for which the shutter of a camera remains open as a photographer uses it to frame is called the shutter speed.

The shutter speed at which the photographer will shoot depends on different situations and environments.

For instance, a photographer will most likely shoot at a very low shutter speed when carrying out portrait photography while another photographer will have to use a very fast shutter speed when carrying out sports, street or wildlife photography.

When photographers shoot at lower speed, they get more exposure time. Shooting at faster shutter speed requires sacrificing some form of exposure time.

Although we must say that shooting at high ISOs in such a condition helps remedy the issue of exposure and ensures that the user obtains a well exposed image.

Which has the higher ISO maximum: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii has an ISO maximum of 25600 while the Nikon D750 camera has an ISO maximum of 12800. Both are, however, expandable to 51200. High ISOs are great when shooting indoors or in areas where there is inadequate lighting.

High ISOs are also very important when photographers are shooting using high shutter speeds. They go a long way in improving the exposure level of the final images.

7. Which allows for a one touch wireless connection: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii comes with near field communication which enables you create a one touch wireless connection with compatible devices; the Nikon D750 doesn’t.

The NFC connection is best used as an alternative wireless transfer medium to the Wi-Fi connectivity. And the reason for this is that the NFC is restricted in terms of coverage. It is only effective when the two devices are close to one another.

Which has image stabilization: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii camera has in body image stabilization while the Nikon D750 camera does not. Image stabilization, also known as vibration reduction, helps to reduce the likelihood of taking blurry pictures as a result of the vibration of the camera. However, you could get any of the Nikon D750’s optical stabilization lenses to take care of that problem.

Which has multiple storage slots: Sony a7ii or Nikon D750?

The Sony a7ii has one storage slot while the Nikon D750 has two.
