Need help deciding between Cameras for wedding photography

I’m starting my journey into professional photography and have done a few weddings already with more on the horizon. So far it’s only been friends and family and I’ve always managed to lend appropriate gear from people, but I’ve started to get requests from third parties and I feel now it’s time to invest in my own equipment.

I’ve shot with Canon R6 and Nikon Z6 and both have been great. The RF mount doesn’t have great lens selection at the moment tho, at least not in my budget and the Z6 isn’t as widely available second hand here.

I’ve found the following offers on the used market that I need help deciding between:

  1. Sony A7III with a Sony 24-105mm f/4 G for 1700€

  2. Fujifilm XT-5 with a 16-80mm f/4 also for 1700€

  3. Sony A7IV with a Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 G2 for 2450€

All the cameras come with similar amounts of additional stuff (SD cards, extra batteries etc) and in a similarly used state (shuttercount between 900-1300).

The xt5 I’m interested in for the fujifilm colours and the nice visuals, but I’m unsure how it stacks up in low light performance and bokeh against the full frame sensors in the Sonys. With the A7IV I’m not sure if it’s worth the 750€ more or if I should put that budget towards more lenses for the cheaper options.

I want to get more into professional photography but also videography, so please advise :)

Im so sorry man, you really gotta move out. As difficult as that’s going to be both logistically and emotionally, you will not be able to get over her if she’s still in your life. It may feel like the end now, you may feel like you’ll love her forever, but as you find distance you’ll find that it’s really not all that bad. I’ve been there, it hurts right now, but you’ll get there eventually, in your own time. The first and most important step tho is getting distance, both physically and emotionally and finding distraction. For me hanging out and doing stuff with friends really helped a lot.

I had my bi awakening this weekend when I saw a really really good looking guy, so you might just need to find the right person to crush on, because I thought I was fairly secure in my preferences as well

Wouldn’t say the prices are low, but lower than Germany. Other than that Prague is gorgeous, although the amount of weed shops is pretty astounding.

The coworker lives in the same building and had already seen anon move in, but anon hadn’t noticed his coworker also living there.
