  Nikon D500 or Sony Alpha 7

  Hi!

  I will be shooting soon a short film and have the option between two cameras on which both I have never shot before: Nikon D500 or Sony Alpha 7
  I was wondering what you guys think, which of those cameras will output a better image?

  I will have for both cameras the same prime lenses available.

  To clarify, it is a short film which is both outdoors and indoors, both during day and night. I will deliver in Full HD (no particular need for 4K).

  What would you prefer and why?

  Thanks,
  Bernhard

  The Sony, no question whatsoever. Nikon’s video features are an afterthought, while Sony has a solid codec, the option of Slog2 color, and choices of framerates.
