Originally posted by chriswill I don't really get the logic behind comparing k3iii to a FF launched several years ago - is it because they're similarly priced atm?
Well, there are only seven camera/sensor combos ranked higher by DXOMARK than the Sony A7iii and it is also still sold new by Sony. It has virtually the same number of megapixels and offers a very clear comparison. Additionally, it is a very well known standard in photography for low light performance.
Honestly at the levels of performance these cameras are at, the differences in absolute performance are getting harder to see.
See also the photons to photos site where you can examine dynamic range, high iso, etc. the Sony a73 is very respectable no matter who tests it. Meeting or beating it with an APSC is quite impressive.
