Pros: Еxcellent 33 MP sensor—the sweet spot in terms of resolution, great dynamic range Dual Gain Output (DGO) technology. Outstanding subject-tracking autofocus, pre-capture, 30 fps continuous shooting, and impressive battery life.

Cons: Perhaps the buffer, but considering the class of the camera, it's more than adequate. The biggest drawbacks for me are the viewfinder, Sony's menu system, and the absolutely terrible firmware update process for both the camera and lenses.

Opinion: Better than the Z8 for wildlife and sports photography. In my experience, the autofocus tracking is noticeably better and more reliable, especially when tracking birds and fast-moving subjects. Combined with 200-600 pre-capture, excellent battery life, and a lighter overall system, it simply suits my shooting style better. After 16 years with Nikon, no regrets :)

Pros: AF, Burst, File Quality. display joint, operating speed.

Cons: As usual, the cfexpress A

Opinion: A very high-performance all-rounder machine. The speed of reading finally allows the use of electronic shutter release without compromise. Shooting without blackouts in the viewfinder is a must that until now was only available on high-end cameras. The af is among the best in the range. The awards are very effective and above all immediate. No cumbersome refinements are required to obtain almost perfect results. The file is very good with a resolution that is good for all needs. The auto WB is further improved and with it the jpg on camera which are perfectly usable when needed. As usual, the use of cfExpress type A is a bit annoying because of the cost to be incurred. Personally I don't need super write speed so I can safely use sd. However, it should be considered for those who need high writing speed, perhaps simultaneously on both cards, since the second slot is only sd. The ergonomics are the usual Sony, you have to get used to it but I prefer to have a small and light body at the start. I really appreciate the double-jointed display even if I would have preferred it slightly larger because sometimes it is a bit too "crowded" (which I think impossible without increasing the body measurements). Even here, however, with a movement of the touch you can "clean" the display of unwanted icons (which becomes complicated if you are using gloves). Sometimes the joint gives the feeling of being a bit fragile... With use we will know if it is just an impression. The customizations of the keys, the FN menu and the icons on the display allow you to rarely enter the menus which, like those of all modern MLs, are infinite and require a little study. But once tailor-made to your needs, it is immediate to use. I am happy with the purchase. After trying a little bit of everything, I believe that this body represents the uncompromising all-rounder. 33 Mpx, fast, electronic and pure mechanical shutter speed, light, excellent lens park, almost infallible AF, excellent EVF, excellent display, excellent battery life, price in line with the competition. I do not find an objective defect such as not to recommend its purchase. I wouldn't know what to improve on such a car. I can't even find something that I am missing and so for me I vote 10!

Pros: in practice an A7IV without defects

Cons: CFExpress A care and less performing than CFExpress B

Opinion: I replaced my A7IV with the new A7V, I must say that the machine, even if you wouldn't think it from the specifications (apart from the semistacked sensor) has improved beyond my expectations. The files are more beautiful immediately probably because it has a much more precise white balance than the four. I don't even mention the focusing system because at Sony it has been really evolved and performing for years. the ergonomics is like the A7rV which is fine for me but is not perfect because of the big hands, the little finger escapes under the battery flap, however solvable with an Arca Swiss plate. Another positive aspect is the viewfinder, in my opinion it has improved, it is brighter, more captivating and more fluid and the fact that it does not darken during the shot (shooting electronically of course) is a great thing. Last week I helped a photographer friend photograph confirmations in church, I only shot electronically and I didn't have any banding problems. On the video side I only tried it and I immediately noticed that the stabilization is better than the previous one. I am very satisfied with the gearbox I made, I think it is a really good all-rounder.

Pros: AF on BIF, Battery Life twice as long as competitors, Pre Capture in raw up to 1 sec.

Cons: CFExpress A care and less performing than CFExpress B

Opinion: Purchased precisely for birdlife and it immediately turned out to be a marvel at the first shots! As soon as you focus on any bird, the AF immediately jumps on the eye and does not let it go, if set correctly, even if the bird passes behind the trees the ad is still there, glued to the eye! Raw files are very good already in the camera, and in any case very elastic in p.p. so you can get satisfactory results with p.p. sw. Currently tested only with Sony 200-600 lens, waiting to try it with other lenses to see the real all-round capability of this camera. The only flaw, the CFexpress A card which is much slower than the CFexpress B, so if you are used to shooting at high burst 30 fps, after a couple of seconds you will hear the shots slow down to allow the machine to empty the buffer! A small limit but one that I don't feel like emphasizing as I shoot bursts of one second at most and with the pre-shot you already get 60 shots.... P.S. it's my first Sony camera and I'm satisfied!

Pros: AF, operating speed, excellent file both on the dynamic range side and high ISO, the battery life greatly improved almost like a7 III. Pre-Capture In Raw

Cons: Viewfinder can be improved: it is not possible to insert 2 CF A cards

Opinion: I don't usually write product reviews, but this time I decided to share my experience. This machine immediately makes it clear that it belongs to the new generation of the Sony A7 series. After using several Sony models such as the A7 III, A7 IV, A7R III, A7R V and even the 6600/6700, I can say that this one really represents a step forward. Responsiveness is at the highest levels, with an incredibly powerful and truly impressive autofocus. The files are also excellent: both in terms of dynamic range and for the management of high ISO. The camera body is practically identical to that of the A7R V, so very well built and solid. After a few days of use I found only two aspects that do not completely convince me. The first is the viewfinder, which is much smaller than that of the A7R V, although it is partly understandable. The real flaw, however, is the second slot for the memory card: only SD remains, while the first also supports CFexpress type A. A choice that could have been fine on the A7 IV, but on this model I would have preferred the same system as the A7R V with dual compatible slots. I'll update the review later, after I've used it longer.
