Absolutely beast of camera if you’re looking to get into photo and/or video. Great for beginners and experienced shooters alike. Down sampled 6k footage to give very crispy 4K video. Improved color science for photo and video really looking good on skin tones. Flip up screen for vloggers. Improved autofocus rivaling Canon.

Camera has been very good, definitely an upgrade from the Rebel T7i I had been using previously. Silent shooting is a great feature for stage photography which is most of what I do. Only draw back is the menu system is unnecessarily confusing.

My husband just recently switched over from a Canon which he has used for years to Sony. He was nervous as it has such a big menu option, but the reality is it's so user friendly. He is able to shoot manually and make adjustments on the fly, and the pictures these take are amazing.

I love this camera so much I bought a second one. I actually like using this for video more than my a7iii because of the flip up screen and how small and light it is. The only downside is the battery is not as good as my a7iii but they are small and easy to carry multiples.
