Sony A7 IV review
The Sony A7 IV is the best hybrid mirrorless camera you can buy right now. A truly modern all-rounder that largely justifies its price tag, it packs class-leading autofocus, impressive image quality and powerful video features into one versatile body. Dedicated street or sports photographers should look elsewhere, and it isn't the fastest shooter in its class. But for everyone else, the A7 IV is a rock-solid all-rounder with few glaring weaknesses. It might be the only camera you ever need.- Impressive new 33MP sensor
- Class-leading autofocus
- Vari-angle screen
- Powerful video features
- Price hike from A7 III
- 4K/60p video is heavily cropped
- Rivals offer faster burst shooting

All of the Sony a7 IV’s improvements and new technology leads to overall better performance over the Sony a7 III. Some would argue it even bests the Sony a7S III in some regards. While not perfect in any specific area, the Sony a7 IV is more of a jack of all trades.
Sony a7 IV Review
With a stabilized 33MP sensor, 10-bit 4K, and fast autofocus, the Sony a7 IV is a compelling full-frame camera for creatives. The Sony a7 IV ($2,499.99, body only) is the eagerly awaited sequel to the popular a7 III from early 2018. This full-frame mirrorless camera isn't trying to be as groundbreaking as its predecessor, instead concentrating on refinements to the successful hybrid formula including a new 33MP full-frame sensor, an upgraded autofocus system with support for Sony's Real-Time Tracking, and 10-bit video for more flexibility with creative color grading. It's a stronger performer than the a7 III (which is still on sale for around $2,000), and earns our Editors' Choice award in the small, but highly competitive enthusiast category.Sony's Generalist Full-Frame The a7 IV is the sequel to the a7 III in concept and execution, but not quite in market position. We loved the a7 III when it debuted years ago, as it pushed the envelope in mirrorless autofocus at a very attractive $2,000 starting price. The a7 III sometimes goes on sale, but Sony hasn't permanently reduced its price. We now recommend t...- Stabilized full-frame imaging and video

Sony Alpha A7 Mark IV Mirrorless Camera Body With Kit Box - Brand New review
The A7 IV offers big improvements in resolution, AF tracking, video features and more, but forget about the spec sheet for a second. Sony’s largest achievement is that it created a mainstream camera that makes photography and video easier, thanks to AI smarts that can aid any photographer, no matter...
