What high end camera should I get

Question: "What lenses do you have?"
OP's answer: "I have a few. My friend wants to buy them."

Question: "What are your specific needs with regards to video and photography?"
OP's answer: "I want something that can do both well."

Question: "What video and photography gear do you currently own?"
OP's answer: N/A (doesn't respond)

New question: Are you trolling?

If you record video handheld, then it doesn't matter a whole lot which camera you get. Your video will be shaky, and no one will care much.

Get a dedicated video camera, and a dedicated camera for photography. If you shoot mostly landscapes or you print huge, look at the Canon 5DSR, Nikon D810, or Sony A7R-ii. If you shoot generally, look at the Nikon D750. If you've got tons of cash and you don't know which lenses you want, just pick up a holy trinity of lenses: (or equivalent), Nikon 24-70 f2.8 or Canon 24-70 f2.8, and Nikon or Tamron or Canon 70-200 f2.8. Depending on your choices, you may have just spent only slightly more than the Canon camera you mentioned in your first post. Then get any filters, flashes, tripod(s), and other shooting equipment that you need.

Then, look at dedicated video equipment. A dedicated video body (not a photography body), the lens(es) that you need, any lighting you might need, and the most essential thing is the stabilization equipment that you need. I am assuming you want to shoot in 4k, and you want flat video that you can edit in post. Depending on the type of video that you're doing, having a GoPro on hand is really useful. Finally, audio is really important.
For video I own a ronin and glidecam and a dolly ,tripod
How are sony lens or will i have to buy a adapter and use canon or other lenses
What dedicated video camera should i look into
I want a camera that is good at both camera and video so i dont spend as much $$ but doesnt look possible from what im told

Dude i really wish i was a troll cause id be having so much fun

What's your total budget ?
 
Another question; what are you expectations? What sizes do you normally print, or do you just share digitally?

And I'm not sure you've said what your total budget is.

Edit: Dang, Astro beat me to the budget question. That's what I get for not refreshing the page for over an hour lol.

Yeah, no one asked the budget question yet.

Also for video, if OP wants a clickless aperture control (of what little I know about video which is close to nill).

I dont print at all
i would say 10,000$ but if i have to spend more its a possibility
 
Hasselblad H5D-200c; spend a little more.
 
what is the difference between the a7sii and the a7rii ??
 
A7sII is more specialized for video and low light, A7RII is basically the best all-around camera that Sony offers.

Google helps.



The gist of it: The A7R-ii is the better camera generally.

I could see the A7S-ii being the very-hard-to-resell camera.
 
sony a7rii vs canon 5dsr ??
If you have lots of canon lenses wait for the 5D IV at PMA.
IF you don't have any lenses, get the A7Rii.
5DsR was utterly underwhelming. It was the least impressive camera I've used since the Leica M9.

I never said I could hook you up with deals.
