Pros: New sensor and related color science, improved construction and ergonomics, even more perfect AF, improved display/viewfinder quality, protective curtain on the sensor, usual total customization of the camera, usual eternal battery, infinite lens park

Cons: Lower ISO tightness than the previous series, operating speed can be improved, display/viewfinder can be improved

Opinion: I bought this A7IV coming from A7iii, A7R iii and other systems (Canon R and fuji X-H2/X-T5) seeing it as the definitive and evolved middle ground between all these mentioned: small, fairly light, quality to sell and infinite range of lenses. Actually in many respects it is like this: the operating speed (power-on, touch response, shutter button response, etc.) has improved a lot since the third series (however much slower than the old Eos R), the autofocus has improved further, useful but not so fundamental being already brilliant that of the previous series, the menu is now more intuitive (but none is impossible to use). On the other hand, the ergonomics and build quality have been significantly improved compared to the 3 series: more pronounced keys, less spongy rings, increased grip, wider and more comfortable joystick, more robust and larger gaskets, apparently more solid paint, more versatile articulated screen and above all foldable for protection. Video quality further improved and FINALLY implemented touch tracking (present on the Canon R since 2019 and never on sony), it has now become so advanced in the video field that to take advantage of all its functions you have to do it by trade! WHAT DID I LIKE? The new sensor brings with it, in addition to resolution, a splendid color science, much more precise and with a new, more vintage profile well done. Display and viewfinder are finally good/decent quality! The 3 series ones were really indecent, slightly better on the R version but still indecent. Now it's much less straining on your eyes and you can even tell when a shot is in focus :-). The new slot is also very much appreciated, which despite being CF makes the standard SD insertable, a considerable saving of money for those like me who do not use burst and manage 4k safely with fast SD. The sacrosanct protective curtain as on the Canon is finally present here too! WHAT DID I DISLIKE? The resolute sensor unfortunately brought with it an ISO seal that I find rather sad, from the first 6 thousand shots I consider it worse than both A7iii, but also A7Riii (with 42mpx). We're still at a high level, but it doesn't give me the feeling of omnipotence-ISO that the A7iii gave me, really a shame. Much can be improved in terms of switching on and switching between viewfinder and display.

Pros: AF and viewfinder, ergonomics,

Cons: High ISO tightness, Cfexpress type A, monitor, lack of focus stacking, sony updates, micro-usb, 10fps that drop to 6 with uncompressed file.

Opinion: I used the A7IV alongside my Nikon z6II for some work. I mainly used it as a body that I could use for the video side although I also used it to take photos. A well-made camera with good ergonomics, a significantly improved viewfinder, excellent AF module... But there are "buts". Tightness at high ISO that I've heard a lot and good about: but where? A terrible grain that's hard to get off in post; the A7RIII handles it better. The Cfexpress type a may be versatile but they cost a lot and are much slower than the type b that are now at the same time at a good sd: where's the convenience? If you take a machine like the A7IV to put a 15 euro card in it, there is a serious problem. The monitor, like the viewfinder is good, with a good contrast that allows you to see well in any light situation, but it is small, with low resolution and the articulated screen in that way can be comfortable in a few situations, but for the most part it is very uncomfortable especially because it is off-center. Finally: 10fps only with compressed file is shameful especially because mechanically it can do much more (at least 12fps with uncompressed file). After the roundup of negative things, let's talk about the merits: significantly improved ergonomics, not like Nikon's but good. Menu that I find very intuitive: articulated it is true, but intuitive (the only flaw is the translations). Greatly improved viewfinder, with good contrast and resolution. Spectacular AF, I can't say more. Color science changed, with less warm colors with greenish shades (personally it's not exactly a virtue, but I find the colors closer to those I like). After testing it, I think the A7IV is a good machine, but honestly there are some things that make me turn up my nose but I can only appreciate other features of it. On the video side, nothing to say, although I don't think I have fully exploited it from this point of view.

Pros: RAW file quality, general ergonomics, robustness, customization, colors, true hybrid, dream video side between codec, bitrate and color depth

Cons: The only thing that did not convince me is the IBIS, not to be taken at full price, CFExpress A, Sony updates

Opinion:

Pros: Sony family feeling, high light management, excellent compromise high ISO/sensor, color science, AF

Cons: For now nothing to report

Opinion: Mine will be more than an opinion, a comparison between mirrorless. Short preamble, I went through: canon 5D markII, then markIII, then sony a7III flanked by a canon R5... I then resold the canon R5 (after 1 year of use) and now I have the a7IV as the main body. Never choice was more apt! I think that the R5, as I have extensively described in my review, is a camera "badly made", if, in some ways, mechanically is ok, the files it churns out (mpx aside), are really difficult to manage, colors off and strange, gamma in low lights horrible, contrasts light / shadows very difficult to manage in post, ISO manageable up to 6400 ... So after a year of testing every type of service (fashion, still-life, commercial, wedding), I HAPPILY made the transition to the A7IV without any regrets, indeed. For me who only take photos, I found a perfect camera for my way of working, the files, which, let's be honest, are the true heart of what we do, are nothing short of WONDERFUL; I thought I was disappointed by the high iso range coming from sony a7III and instead, I simply said wow, perhaps because, coming from the R5 I seemed to dream, being able to finally count on files at 12800 iso without worrying too much, for me it was like returning to the surface after an apnea. Ultimately I think that, if you are a sony user, switching to canon can be a downgrade; if you are already sony users and want to make a UP from previous models and if you are photographers, I think you will find the usual sony family felling (like it or not, I am now used to it and quickly set the menus and custom buttons). Small further note, the tracking with adapted optics is so much improved compared to the A7III. For me, therefore, sony a7IV is absolutely worth the expense.

Pros: Sensor, configurability, ergonomics, AF, file.

Cons: Sufficient battery life, rolling shutter, 6 fps in uncompressed raw burst, mediocre ibis, overbuilt.

Opinion: The vastly improved menu and the ability to sew the configuration of the keys with a brush, make this machine more lovable than previous models. The ergonomics are there; both as a size of the grip and as a position and quality of the keys. The sensor is definitely valid both in sharpness and as a dynamic range. In real use, the noise at high iso is absolutely in line with other sony sensors and the difference with an A7III or an A7RIII is as imperceptible as it is negligible. The AF works very well and I was amazed by the reliability with the coupled 1.4x and 200-600. The files are excellent and have a recovery of lights and shadows up to expectations. The "chubby" car and battery life in my opinion has decreased from models such as the A7RIII or the A9II. The sony declares the camera at 10fps both in mechanical and electronic but there is a nice asterisk that is often not mentioned, or that in raw uncompressed frames per second drop to 6 with mechanical shutter. The fact above if we want is "aggravated" by a marked rolling shutter effect with electronic shutter. The stabilization in the car is mediocre and inferior to many of the other machine manufacturers. In my opinion these defects, which are in some cases simply software limits imposed by the parent company, make this machine overpriced by a few hundred euros. Net of all I must say that the machine gives excellent satisfaction and I am actually happy with the purchase.
