When you save up for over a year for a camera, and then drop over 10k on switching systems, you'd think your camera would be packaged better than a GM 24-70, a Batis 85mm 1.8, some filters, a battery grip, and an Alpha a7rIII bouncing around in a box that is partially open from not enough packing...

First, my experience with Amazon. I bought the camera through Amazon fulfillment and it was sold to me as NEW. But when I got it and started going through the menus and customizing it, it was clear it had been used. It even had another person's name and email in the camera!

If Nikon thought it was going to have things all its own way with the D850, it should think again. Sony has taken one of our favorite mirrorless cameras and bolstered the performance to make the new Alpha A7R III a much more capable and well-rounded offering.

10fps at 42.2MP; Advanced 5-axis IS system; Large and bright EVF; Fast AF performance; Improved handling

Battery life could still be better; Limited touchscreen control; Only one SD slot supports UHS-II cards

The Sony A7R III is the company's latest professional 35mm full-frame compact system camera. It features the same back-illuminated full-frame Exmor R CMOS sensor as its predecessor, the A7R II, with a resolution of 42.4 megapixels and no optical low pass filter, but offers a long list of significant...

I found the Sony A7Riii the best mirrorless full frame camera on the market today. I did extensive research on the Nikon and Canon offerings in this class and they both fell short of the Sony. The 42mb sensor is amazing - if you need that kind of resolution.

Compact and light body while feeling sturdy and substantial in the hands

Convoluted menu system; no intervalometer; lenses are more expenses than Sony's competitors

The Sony Alpha 7R III is Sony's latest high-resolution, full-frame mirrorless camera. It offers impressive all-round specifications, with a 42.4MP sensor, 10fps continuous shooting, a hybrid AF system that employs 399 phase-detection points covering approximately 68% of the frame, and 4K video...

Phenomenal image quality in almost any situation; Extremely fast and responsive; Compact; lightweight design with well-placed controls; Superb electronic viewfinder; In-body image stabilisation gives sharper images with any lens

AF area is invisible when moved using the joystick; Rear screen only tilts up or down; Handgrip too close to the lens for shooting with gloves

The combination of 42.2MP, 10fps burst shooting and a very sophisticated AF system makes this a very attractive camera indeed: Sony has taken an already excellent mirrorless camera and made it even better.

42.2MP at 10fps; 5-axis IS system; Fast autofocus

Battery could be better

The Sony A7R III sees improvements in pretty much every area: physical design features, image quality, speed and performance, as well as video recording capabilities and battery life.

Fantastic image quality; Improved dynamic range over its predecessor; Very good high ISO performance; Much improved real-world AF performance; Class-leading burst rates, even with RAW; Improved 5-axis in-body image stabilization; Better 4K video quality; 1080/120fps video; Dual card slots;...

Expensive; Menus still confusing; UHS-II support only on one card slot; No optical low-pass filter means greater risk of moire; No built-in flash; Buffer clearing still slow despite UHS-II support, Only one card slot is UHS-II compatible, Buffer clearing can still be slow even with fast UHS-II...

The Sony A7R ii is an outstanding camera in all respects. I have upgraded from the Canon 77D & the difference is like night & day. From great quality images to fantastic features there is nothing to fault.

Great Features; Great Picture Quality

The A7RIII is easily the most complete package to date and will be for the years to come. All the updates from to the A7RII are significant. This camera is able to do most things very well. At this price point it's a no brainer. #sweepstakes
