Fantastic 24 megapixel camera with wide lens choice.

This is a fantastic camera. There is plenty of customization available to various buttons on your camera, so be prepared to dive into the menus. The main adjustments are on the d-pad, like ISO and drive mode. Things like AF/MF and AE-L can be found doubled up to one button, I think this is good. The top panel has a dial for exposure compensation, a really welcome old school addition.

There are plenty of lenses available, like Tamron and a few Sigmas. Old alpha lenses can be mounted using an adapter. The LA-EA5 can handle all of these, whereas the LA-EA3 is for autofocus motors in the lens, and LA-EA4 works with screw-drive autofocus lenses. You'd probably want the -EA5 for screw type lenses, because it doesn't need a pellicle mirror.

Autofocus works fine, but this Sony lacks the Eye-AF that makes it's younger brother, the A7iii, famous. It's up to you if you really need this.

The camera build is rock solid. The grip works fine, although I usually put the vertical grip on so my pinky finger doesn't dangle, and there are 2 batteries in the camera.

I've taken plenty of greatly detailed 24 MP images with this body. I've used the A7Rii (42 MP) extensively, and yes it get more detail, but for most uses this detail is useless. I've printed off A3-sized images from these cameras and there are no pixels to be found!Read full review...

Excellent camera for the price

Good image quality, packed with features and IS mind blowing. Few Downside as well. Switches are in awkward positions and too close. At times misses the focussing. Overall no other camera can beat the quality for the price.Read full review...

Great value for a full frame camera.

I have the Sony A7 III and bought this as back up.Great image quality, does not have in body stabilisation,I have few issues with this and enjoy the challenge (or get a FE Sony OSS lens).I really like this camera with the Sony/Zeiss 35mm f2.8 Prime lens (not OSS),it is compact enough that it does not attract much attention for street photography.If you are looking for your first full frame at a reasonable price, recommend you try before you buy.Read full review...

Best value for a great camera

Sony seconds provides the best value for this camera. Arrived flawless on the exterior with a shutter count of ~2000. Absolutely worth the $$
