| Feature | Canon | Sony | Nikon |
|---|---|---|---|
| Autofocus (Video + Photo) | Dual Pixel AF is class-leading for smooth, reliable tracking | Extremely fast AF, especially for video and eye tracking | Excellent, but consistency varies across models |
| Lens Ecosystem | RF lineup expanding fast, strong pro zooms & primes | E-mount is massive, third-party options abound | Z-mount quality is superb, ecosystem still growing |
| Color Science | Canon’s “out-of-camera” color often preferred for skin tones | Neutral, flexible for grading | Natural tones, also great for landscapes |
| Hybrid Production | Strong across stills/video, Cinema EOS synergy | Excellent video-centric features | Improved hybrid workflows in latest models |
| Office/Print Ecosystem | Best-in-class end-to-end (print, scan, workflow) | N/A | N/A |
