In the early days of the a7 series, quite a lot of people bought Sony bodies on which to use their Canon glass. Many of them saw it as a stop gap measure, while they were waiting for what they really wanted, i.e. a FF Canon MILC. Sony bodies slowly improved and those that stayed with Sony were rewarded with excellent cameras such as the a7Riv, a9 and now the a1. Others dumped their Sony bodies as soon as Canon launched the R5. Those are the facts.I've seen many famous photographers on social media switch to Sony in the past few years.
But please - trying to justify your argument by saying that "many famous photographers on social media" have switched to Sony, is extraordinarily naive -
Did they buy their Sony gear with their own money? Or whether it was given to them by Sony in exchange for "influencing" easily led people into switching brands.? Are these famous photographers well paid Sony Ambassadors? *My impression* is that most of them are well paid "shills"...
Canon of course have their own paid ambassadors too, but *my impression* is that they tend to be more transparent about their relationship with the manufacturer.
