What more to say This camera and lens combination takes glorious photos, and helps you take them easily. My, what a great camera and lens.

Glorious photos; easy to use

Quite the price

Even if there are parts of the Sony α9 package that feel like overkill, that's kind of the appeal.

20 FPS Continuous shooting; Dual USC-II SD Slots

Astronomically expensive

Recent market statistics confirm that mirrorless cameras represent the only sector of the 'serious' camera market that is showing any real growth.

My first impressions with a Sony a9 after using for 6 months while in transition from another professional camera outfitter. General. 1. Two SD card slots; a fast one in slot 1 and a slow in 2; both should have been the same. 2. No USB 3 3.

The Sony Alpha A9 is a unique and confident full-frame camera that's meant to challenge the Canon and Nikon hegemony over the market for professional sports, action and event photography. This isn't an easy task given how accomplished both the Nikon D5 and Canon EOS-1D X Mark II are.

A new My Menu feature lets you register up to 30 menu items for instant recall, arrange items in any order, and erase unused items. Also, primary menus have been reorganized for smoother search and operation.

Quite simply, the Sony A9 is quite probably the best camera on the market today across all types and categories.

20fps silent shooting; Full-frame sensor; Flip-up screen

Small body can feel unbalanced with larger lenses; Expensive; Relatively short battery life
