Canon EOS Rebel SL3 vs Nikon Z7

For the type of video you're doing, I prefer the Canon. The autofocus is smoother and you can scrub footage to review it, which is really important. The Sony has weird old VCR-style controls to review footage and it means sometimes I don't catch problems I need to know about soon enough to refilm.

DPReview has called out(Opens in a new window) this deficiency, which isn't exclusive to the Z 7. Other mirrorless camera systems, including models from Fujifilm and Sony, also don't work with IR focus assist. There is some speculation that a flash projecting a green grid, like the color of the Z 7's assist beam, would speed up autofocus in very dim light, and be less distracting than a bright assist beam.

Love the fact that I can use legacy Canon lenses or the newest, as my budget allows. I got the 18-55 STM kit lens and it is a fine starter lens, especially for video (wide angle since the camera crops, especially with 4K video), it's silent, fast and relatively accurate. I also got a "nifty fifty" prime Canon 50mm lens that is Super for portraits and just to walk around with taking photos. I also got a Canon EF-S 55-250mm STM lens for excellent shots of RC planes in the air far away

Not even close. But keep the cost in mind. Keep the weight in mind. Mostly, keep that fabulous Digic 8 processor in mind

I'm nowhere near UL, even without camera stuff, but I'll weigh in: I've been taking a Nikon Z7 (1.49 lbs) and a Nikkor Z 24-70mm F/4 (1lb 1 oz), so basically 2lb 9 oz., on all my backpacking trips using the PD clip attached to my strap, and the weight hasn't bothered me at all. But again, not a UL guy, I'm typically carrying like 35lbs in my pack so maybe it's because that weight is a drop in the bucket compared to my overall pack weight, whereas if you're adding that weight to a 12-15lb pack it might feel more substantial, I couldn't really say
