The Sony Alpha A7 III might not have the highest resolution, fastest shooting speed or best video quality. But by borrowing features from the flagship A9 and A7R III, it's uniformly excellent at everything.
Pros:
  • Stellar low-light/high ISO capability
  • Much-improved handling
  • Fast 10 fps shooting
  • Excellent autofocus
  • Sharpest 4K video of any Sony full-frame camera
  • Double the battery life of the last model
Cons:
  • EVF and viewfinder not quite as good as rivals
  • Two SD card slots but only one is high-speed UHS-II
  • Not as weather-resistant as the Fujifilm's X-H1
  • No 10-bit video output like Panasonic's GH5s

Sony A7 III Review

The Sony Alpha A7 III is a feature packed and highly versatile body that sets a new benchmark for "entry-level" full-frame cameras. At $1,999, it's not exactly cheap, but for serious enthusiasts and even professional photographers, the A7 III offers a rich feature set at a reasonable price point.

Sony A7 III

Sony referred to the A7 III as a "basic model" during their early promotion, whether jokingly or not, but the A7 III is far from being basic. Indeed, it's so well-specced on paper that it surprised a lot of people who weren't expecting such a well-appointed camera, and thankfully that promise has...

Awesome awesome general use camera

I own both A7R III and A7 III, I must say I'm quite impressed with my A7 III, and prefers the A7 III over my A7R III because for $1000 cheaper, the A7 III has improved AF performance, better 4K video recording capabilities, as well as increased battery life because of the use of an EVF that has only...

Good value

Everything came as expected and got here quick. Half of the items are really cheap but I expected that, but the other half are a really good value. It did come with 2 Sandisk Extreme Pro SD cards. That alone is worth the extra hundred this kit costs. The camera bag is small but of good quality.

Amazing Camera by Sony

This camera is all around an amazing value, Sony has done a great job making it such a premium camera at a great price. The silent shooting, joystick and burst capabilities make this such a worthwhile upgrade coming from an older crop body.

Announcing the Sony Alpha A7 Mark III - Sony had the clever idea of telling everyone, that this was "the b a s i c model" in the Sony Alpha range, and pretty much everyone published this, because it was quite frankly a little bit ridiculous.
Pros:
  • Fast and reliable focus, Impressive noise performance, Excellent image quality, Fast continuous shooting, High-quality 4K video recording, Excellent lenses available
Cons:
  • Additional aspect ratios would be nice, Menu system could be neater, Most lenses are quite large

Great, Game Changing Camera, With Some Issues

I bought this camera to explore the exciting developments in auto focusing. Compared to previous Sony models, and to other manufacturers' models, the A7iii is so much better. But the big let down is the awful menu. Where do you find all the settings to get the most out of the auto focusing
Pros:
  • Eye focus brilliant
  • portraits could be pinsharp
  • Great Picture Quality
  • The Auto focus system is stunning
Cons:
  • Awful menu Organisation
  • Flimsy Construction

Camera of the year so far! 5 Stars across the boar

One of the unique features of this camera is it's focusing and video capabilities! The dual card slot is a warm welcome. At this price point it's extremely difficult to find any real faults. Probably my only gripe is Sony should of at least include a charger.
