Choosing a camera is like selecting a paintbrush. Each camera system has its own technical and artistic qualities it brings to a production. I've shot with multiple camera systems over the years. For great image quality and flexibility, I often choose my Sony PMW- F55 CineAlta 4K camera package paired with the award winning Cabrio 19-90mm, T2.9 zoom lens and fast Canon Cine Primes. The variety of formats, codecs, frame rates and camera configurations make the camera a real workhorse on any production. I love the OLED viewfinder for clear focus and quick color reference.  For stills and behind-the-scenes footage I've added the new SonyA7SIII paired with the DJI RS 2  gimbal.
