Alpha 7R IV Mirrorless Digital Camera (Black)

The camera is superb. Way beyond your imagination. Even amateur photographer can feel they are like in god-mode. PROS; -Looks so nice, the grip is not like other Sony cameras. It is like DSLR and nice to feel it. -Battery is more durable. -Weather sealed -Super quality sharp images -Real-time tracking is amazing CONS -Menu system is too confusing, I needed to spend 2-3 hours on YouTube tutorials to settings up. -That camera needs expensive and fastest SD CARDS that you get get Extra Note; I had an issue with the delivery company (UPS) due to my building access. When I ordered from Amazon I put specific delivery instruction like door codes and contact number. But UPS did not deliver to my address or called me. That made me a bit angry but other than that is was all good experience with the seller.

Somewhat reluctantly gone to Sony a7riv after disliking the Canon R5 specs. I like: -60 megapixel sensor, Sony sensors are fantastic, i have one in the Fujifilm GFX100 its stunning! -No AA filter degrading image quality -takes cheaper SDXC cards -Best eye focus on the market -tilt up screen, no ludicrous flappy out video screen -Battery is great, good power plus percentage indicator Dont like: -Poor brand image for a camera -Camera made in Thailand, lenses in China instead of japan -Menu system very very poor, you need psychic abilities to make some adjustments, its like the camera is fighting you -Sensor get dusty and the vibrator doesnt clean it properly, ive sorted this by buying a separate body for each lens and never removing them, obviously most people cant do this. if you try the vibrator its like the camera is shaking apart, awful. -Flash shoe on top has ridiculously fragile contact pins, no other brand uses such a fragile system -Camera lacks any kind of 'fun' factor, its just proficient. I expect I'll just stay with a7riv's for four or five years then go back to canikon, if they can get it together by then of course. So recommended with some reservations :-)

Very very capable camera. Menus are slow and overly complicated. Otherwise it would be the perfect camera. Amazing range of lenses and after going through a Canon phase for over a decade and 5+ yrs using Leica rangefinders, it’s been great using such a powerful camera with endless opportunities to tweak and customise. That’s part of the problem but part of the charm too. It’s so good despite the menus that I’ve given it 5* but it’s so complicated to use at times it deserves 4*
