  • A good studio and portrait camera
Style: Base Set: Base
The A7 is better suited for studio and portrait. It's a great camera to use everyday as well but definitely not for sports action or telezoom. There's no telezoom lens until April and it's only 200mm. If you buy the A7/R with the Zeiss 35mm, 55mm and 24-70mm then you will have a solid system for portrait, studio and walk around system. You will probably be able the take the best pictures you've ever taken for something this compact. Pros 1. Amazing Picture Quality especially in RAW(ARW new format). Update your software to read this format. IQ higher than 5DMK3 but lower than Nikon D800. 2. There are dedicated dials for aperture, shutter and exposure. No messing around with menus. 3. Great EVF. The eye detection works great. It will turn off the screen and turn on the EVF when you put your face up on it. 4. Hybrid AF has decent PDAF especially in daylight. Much faster and more accurate than any of the NEX series. Slower than my 5DMK3 and Nikon D800. 5. Available Zeiss lenses are some of the best on the market regardless of what system you compare to. Check DXOmark to confirm. 6. Very portable with the 35mm 7. In camera usb charging. Great for traveling because there's one less thing to lose/carry/forget. 8. NFC is convenient to quickly sling photos to your Android devices. Apple devices uses wifi which is also fast but a little less convenient. 9. SD memory slot actually support UHS-1 speeds!! finally! My Nex 5R was severely handicapped because it only supported Class 10. 10. Full Frame sensor. Compared to APS-C Nex series: less noise, more picture, etc... 11. Video quality looks great. It has continuous focus and works well. Quality is higher than a Nikon D800 but lower than the 5DMK3. Cons 1. Slow AF low light compared to DSLRs 2. Battery life is short. Buy extra batteries and external charger! 3. Bigger lens can throw the balance off and make it easy to slip out of your hands. 4. Shutter vibrations confirmed to blur pictures under 1/160. Keep shutter speed 1/160 at least. Recommend 1/250. 5. Very limited FE mount lens selection. You can use other E mount lens but most lenses will force you to crop. 6. In camera usb charging. Charge time unacceptable ~5-6 hours. 7. No dual memory slots. 8. AF too slow to be effective for sports or anything fast moving. 9. Scene modes doesn't work that well sometimes because of shutter vibrations. I don't think most people will be using these modes anyways. 10. Annoying squishy feeling shutter button. There's no click to it at all. 11. No touch screen. Don't understand this decision. I want a touch screen because it makes videos a whole lot easier. I don't see a point in reiterating what many reviews have already said so I will just answer the most common questions and misinformation. I will also update more as I go. The high ISO problem in Auto mode and shutter vibrations From what I've researched, these cameras have sensor shakes due to the shutter impacts. Anything slower than 1/160 sec shutter speed will show up in the picture. It is easily noticeable when you are at 1/60 and below. I highly recommend you use 1/250 or faster speed. I normally choose higher shutter speed anyways since the 55mm and 35mm does not have OSS. But OSS does not eliminate the shutter vibrations, just the hand shakes problems. So regardless of what lens you use, use high shutter speed. I honestly don't see much IQ degradation from ISO 320 to 1600 due to noise or details. It's when you hit 6400 that it becomes a problem. The sony A7/R will still have better IQ at ISO 1600 than an OMD EM1 at ISO 320. I wouldn't call that a con. In manual mode, auto iso should work properly if you choose aperture and shutter speed yourself. It should only come up with the correct ISO or the picture will be too bright. The complaints here sounds like people moving up from enthusiasts cameras and not fully knowing the professional side. Auto everything doesn't work and you don't use it. Pros will use some auto settings but not fully auto. The most common modes are aperture priority, shutter priority and manual. The high ISO problem also disappear when you turn off DRO. I prefer HDR over DRO anyways. If you buy this camera and pair it with good lens like the Zeiss 55mm and 35mm, then most of your problems are solved. You will actually get better IQ than a 5DMK3 with a 50mm 1.2L(I have this set up as well so I know). The 5DMK3 will have better AF, AF speed, and much much longer battery life though. Depending whether you are shooting from a Tripod or not, your choices are clear. The battery problem. We don't have much choices here. I hate the idea of a compact pro camera that can only get 340 shots. The good news is there is actually a battery grip. The bad news about that is it adds more bulk, weight and kind of defeating the whole purpose of being compact. However, I do like the added bulk of the grip. It does balance out the camera when you use bulkier lens like the Zeiss 55mm. It also gave me better grip and I feel more confident about not dropping it. Having 2 batteries does give me roughly the same amount of shoot time as a 5DMK3 with no battery grip. The bonus with the A7 is that it is still lighter and less bulky than the 5DMK3. It cost about $250 and there's bundles here for $250 with some accessories with a half decent SD card for back up. I would pick the one with the wall battery charger. I hate the in camera charging for obvious reasons. Good luck and I hope I answered the questions. I wish I could rate the camera as 4.5 stars. It seriously meets most marks. What it lacks is battery life(easy to fix) and good native lens collection(takes some time). There are only 4 FF Zeiss lenses but they are amazing. The 55mm Zeiss($1000) rivals the $4000 Otus for Nikon. I highly recommend you use the Zeiss 35mm and 55mm lens with this. It's actually relatively cheap compared to its performance. ... show more

  • Great camera! Sony has hit a home run with this one.
Style: Base Set: Base
To start off, I'd just like to mention that I am not a professional photographer. I am a serious hobbyist traveler photographer, mainly photographing my travel adventures as well as photographing my children's precious moments when I'm at home. I must say, this Sony A7 really hits the bulls-eye for my needs. I used to carry a Nikon D600 with a 24-70mm f/2.8G "beast" lens. The complete system was quite cumbersome and heavy but the combination of the full framed Nikon D600 and the 24-70mm lens took absolute stunning shots when I was on the go. When Sony came out with the RX1r, I decided to give it a try and I was truly amazed with the quality of the pictures I was able to take with that camera. The RX1r's ability to take hand held night shots made that camera a real winner for me. Though my main issue with the RX1r was that I was stuck with the 35mm lens. That made the travel photography difficult but as a full frame "point and shoot" camera, the RX1r was as good as it gets. Then the A7 and A7r came out and general apples to apples, it looked as if the A7 was essentially a interchangeable lens version of the Sony RX1 series cameras. Being so happy with the RX1r, I decided to get the A7r paired with the Sony SEL2470Z Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm F4 ZA OSS Lens. The A7r took FANTASTIC photos during good light conditions but my main issue was that it was TERRIBLE in low light. At just an ISO of 1200, you can already see a hint of noise in low light conditions and once you bump that up to 2000+, the photos are generally polluted with noise. At 6400, it's essentially game over. As my home is generally not very well lit, using the A7r to take photos of my children only created photos that were generally not photo album worthy. However, the A7r really shines once you slap on a tripod and take scenery shots or when lighting is good. The imagine quality on the A7r is EXCEPTIONAL and the level of detail is top notch quality. The larger MP capabilities of the A7r are utilized very well. But since I generally shoot in low light and only 20% of my shots are scenic, I returned the A7r and got the A7 instead. Image quality wise, the A7 performs MUCH better in low light conditions over the A7r. There is a significant reduction in noise at ISO 2000 and 3200 shots and at ISO 6400, many of the shots I got were still very good. I generally found that the A7 performed better with portrait shots while the A7r really thrived with landscape shots. The autofocus on the A7r had a tendency to hunt more while the A7 was quicker in focusing, especially in low light conditions. I believe this is mainly due to the fact that the A7 has Phase Detection Auto focus (PDAF), while the A7r does not. Many have complained that the A7 also has a slow autofocus compared to other DSLR cameras on the market but I honestly can't really tell the difference. Compared to the A7r's 36.4 MP, the A7 does have a lower MP at "just" 24.3. Though I honestly, I doubt you'll really tell the difference unless you do some serious cropping or you do photography that really just requires high MPs. Exterior wise, both the A7 and A7r essentially look and feel exactly the same. Though the A7r has more metallic parts, like the dials and apparently the body as well, you generally can not tell the difference between them. Both the A7 and A7r are very nice to hold and shoot with. Both feel very fluid and crisp. The A7r does make a bit more noise when taking shots and the A7 is noticeably more quiet. I know some have complained that the A7 is still noisy when taking shots but I don't find it bothersome and I actually quite like the sound it makes. Coming from the Nikon D600, I did find that I had to get used to the layout of the Sony cameras. The menu system as well as the location of certain commands are not where I was used to them being. Though after a few days with the camera, navigating through the camera became a breeze. My only main complaint would be that the "zoom" button is a bit of a stretch for my fingers and does require for me to preposition my grip on the camera in order to press is properly. Battery life for the A7 and A7r are borderline decent to poor as you generally would get about 350 to 400 shots before you need a battery swap. I purchase a Wasabi battery charger and extra batteries to solve that problem. I also found the Wasabi wall battery charger much better than using Sony's direct to camera charging system. Another drawback I've noticed is that the start up time of the camera is relatively slow compared to the RX1r and significantly slow when compared to the Nikon D600. I never shoot video with my cameras so I'm sorry to say I can't comment on the A7's video capabilities. Overall, the A7 is a fantastic camera. Granted the A7r had a higher MP, the A7 just suited my shooting needs better (low light shots, portraits, running after the kids shots and travelling shots). Furthermore, even when paired with the larger SEL2470Z Vario-Tessar 24-70mm lens over the standard 28-70mm kit lens, the over all size and weight is still a HUGE upgrade over the significantly larger Nikon D600 and heavier the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G "beast" lens. The A7 really gave me the flexibility to carry the camera almost everywhere, making it perfect for my travel photography, while at the same time giving me the perfect shots that I look for in a camera, making it the perfect go to camera for me. All that's left is to hope Sony comes out with better and a wider range of lenses soon, which according to the news reports out there, they will. PS: If you see a Nikon D600 and a Nikkor 24-70mm lens for sale on eBay anytime soon, there's a good chance it's mine! I hope this review helps! ... show more
