Pros: Excellent AFC autofocus, battery life, excellent ISO capability, dual slots

Cons: Somewhat awkward grip with heavy optics

Opinion: I use this camera exclusively for wedding photography and I am fully satisfied with it. I only use the autofocus in AF-C and it's more than enough for my workflow and the high ISO hold continues to surprise me: in certain situations I shoot at ISO 12,800 without any problems. The autonomy is exceptional: I often cover an entire event with only two batteries, returning home with the second still halfway through. The gust is also great for ceremonies. The only trick concerns the electronic shutter: Rolling Shutter and Banding are real risks, but with a little attention they are managed well. The menu is complex and unfortunately the Italian translation is not very precise, which does not make it intuitive. However, thanks to the custom page and numerous programmable physical keys, I rarely find myself having to navigate through the settings. At the current price of around € 1,200, at least for strictly photographic use, I think it is one of the cameras with the best value for money on the market.

Pros: Wide availability of lenses; compactness; image quality.

Cons: Mediocre stabilization; Good ergonomics, but not great

Opinion: It is a milestone. More than 7 years after its presentation, it still has its say in the photographic field. The autofocus can't compete with the latest releases, but it still allows you to use it in AF-C with excellent precision. The menus are a bit convoluted, but with use you get used to it. The sensor has a very low noise, with the result that the sharpness is appreciable even in situations of less than optimal light. The optics are remarkable and you can find excellent third-party lenses at more than reasonable prices. Not very suitable for amateur videos, as the video quality is good, but the stabilization is only mediocre.

Pros: Sempi Pro body, very good high ISO resistance, price, wide range of lenses available (as for all Sony) excellent price resistance.

Cons: Sony menu, autofocus absolutely not up to par.

Opinion: I have been using this camera for a year and a half (it should be specified that I take 99% photos and almost 0 videos). I came from Nikon d7200 and later d750 (which I think is the best reflex ever produced in terms of quality price). Wanting to switch to mirrorless and considering Nikon not yet mature in this segment, I decided to throw myself on sony and as characteristics the A7III was the one I considered most suitable. The camera body is well made and I felt quite good in it. The customizations are endless. In environments with low light it performs well in terms of rendering in files, although I think that the autofocus is somewhat to be reviewed. Used both sony and third-party optics. For landscape photography it is certainly a fantastic camera, if you start doing some events then things change. I often found myself having to struggle with unresponsive focusing. Even the menu in my opinion needs to be revised as the Italian translations leave something to be desired and I often used it in English. For the rest, in terms of ergonomics I also found myself quite well despite not having small hands, just get a little hands-on. The files are very good and workable in post. It is an excellent machine and for those who do not have to do high professional work I would say that it is perfect. Today you can find it new at a great price (for the features it has it is perhaps one of the best) if we then enter the world of second-hand we are even under 1k euros which is a bargain.

Pros: Image quality, dynamic range, high ISO maintenance still practically at the top after almost eight years (!) since its release. He ages very well and will still have a lot to say. Excellent autofocus as far as I'm concerned, and for the uses I make of it (obviously surpassed and improved in its various descendants).

Cons: Ergonomics not at the top (but in my hands it's fine all in all), IBIS not exciting (but still sufficient), viewfinder certainly not the best in the category. A lot of dust on the sensor. Complaints about the menu in my opinion greatly exaggerated despite being challenging (read below).

Opinion: I had wanted it so much at the time, but the wallet did not allow (and I already had enough more), until, a year ago, I had the opportunity to price and availability to be able to take it. A sort of excellence, a "Queen". Still top-notch after all these years, stainless. Together with the trusty 24-105 f/4 G OSS (but I also tried the equally trusty 200-600 and a 35 mm Zeiss of acquaintances) it returns images of amazing quality, with all the parameters that count at the Top (color, dynamic range, high iso holding, detail resolution, Raw malleability... ). The ergonomics are as far as I'm concerned inferior to any Nikon and even to the few Canons I've tried, but my little hands are fine with it all in all, I had heard considerable complaints on the subject. As usual, you must always hold them in person. The Autofocus is far beyond my common needs, to the point that I leave it on automatic and it almost always goes where I wanted it to go. Clearly, at the moment, it will now be considered well outdated by those who instead require particular and borderline performance ("birdcatchers" but not only). I only minimally justify the big complaints about the menu: yes, it's complicated, and yes, it's certainly not the best around, but... first of all you have to leave it in English, to escape the strange "abbreviations", and then there are excellent tutorials on the "Tube", they will teach you what it takes to "dominate" it. The jpgs are not bad, they debunk many other complaints about the "bad science of Sony color" (?! with the first A7, perhaps). But his enormous power lies in Raw... You'll find something that really can be used up to ISO 25600-51200 upon AI noise reduction support. As well as dizzying recoveries of both possible lights and shadows. His "worst flaw"? IBIS. It is quite modest. However, its 2-3 maximum stops compensates for them and other help comes from the excellent 24-105 G OSS (or other stabilized lenses). However, as mentioned above, the high isos also take care of solving everything, to be used safely without reservations and without compromise. Second major defect: tons of dust on the sensor! Prepare holy patience and "stain remover" brush in post. The battery life isn't exciting, but it's less bad than several other mirrorless cameras... then with two pennies I bought a Chinese charger and 3 batteries. The viewfinder is a bit "like this", but never mind, it "goes". I'm not talking about videos, because I practically never make any, others will be able to sing his praises on the subject as well. Vote 9.5 I would say.

Pros: All

Cons: Well, maybe the menu

Opinion: I bought this A7III a month ago. I came from a Nikon D7200 and I must say that with this one it is a big leap forward. Build quality, speed, focus, everything seems better to me, even the quality of the file that comes out and the malleability of the raw are really remarkable. Perhaps the only worst aspect is the menu, which is truly immense and dispersive, certainly the abbreviations do not help. But in the end after a few days of use you can understand more or less all the functions, so it is not a real negative aspect. Many say that the viewfinder is poor, I actually feel good in it, it is responsive and very bright.
