    IM BLOWN AWAY!

    I am completely blown away! This camera has exceeded my expectations. I switched from a Canon Rebel T7 to this camera based on reviews and tons of research. I am a professional photographer and needed something to meet my expectations but as I’ve mentioned before it’s exceeded what I thought this camera would be. One thing I want to bring up is that if this is your first camera, I would do plenty of research and study things prior to purchasing. This camera is a lot and can do a lot. Unless you’re familiar with settings and using them, I would not recommend this be your first. Since this is my third camera and I am pretty well versed with them, it didn’t take long to get used to it. In the beginning it was overwhelming but I got it figured out. If you’ve just purchased this, I would recommend YouTube videos for the best settings for professional photography. There is an option on this camera setting that you can change your color to Adobe, which then immediately allows you in your Adobe editing software to sync to this. Again, I highly recommend this camera!

    As a beginner to learning photography i use a Iphone 12 pro max to take photos of automotive photography and scenery. It took me a couple weeks on how to take a good photo using this camera basically by watching videos on youtube. After a while ive learned somewhat how to almost be a pro at taking photos with the camera. If you are looking for a well made camera that wont break the bank and you can invest in, then this is it.

    One of the best choice for beginners, you can skip the Kit lens and invest on a GMaster / Sigma 50mm or 24-70mm. You wont regret. Good built, have used in normal to humid conditions, havent faced any issues yet. DOnot expect much from silent shooting feature and touch screen is missing. Can give it a 4.5 Star

    I’ve been shooting for over who years and had been a lifelong Nikon user but as my d800 was showing it’s age I was thinking about moving to a lighter camera. My biggest concern was the battery life moving from the Nikon but the new batteries in the A7iii will make it through a shoot no problem. I’ve never needed more than two batteries for a day shoot with it. Image quality is phenomenal and eye tracking (especially after the update) is immensely handy for portrait photography. I highly recommend this camera for professionals and advanced amateurs alike.

    It’s hard to decide if a digital camera is really necessary when we all have a camera in our pocket every moment of the day. But this camera goes beyond the ability of our cell phones, it is leaps and bounds more advanced and gives the capability to take professional photos and expose details that are mind blowing. Can’t say enough about how great the camera is… and it’s as easy to use as any point and shoot or as complex as any other slr… a true gem!!

    As a novice photographer and videographer, I researched for quite a while before I settled on the Sony A7iii. For the price, the A7iii is unbeatable. It's a full frame camera with a mic input and headphone jack. It takes 4k video and for simple vlogging, it looks fantastic. Low light has been better than any other camera I've worked with. I have used the Rebel series and the 6D for interior photography and this camera blows them both out of the water. The Rebel series isn't even in the same league. There is a learning curve to this camera so if it's your first foray into photography give yourself some time. It's been incredible to learn with and I have lots of room to grow. I initially bought this camera to do video work but over the course of the pandemic found myself in need of newborn pictures when my second baby was born. Since we were in lockdown it wasn't possible to capture those first days and weeks of our new baby. I picked up my A7iii and after a bit of trial and error and having only shot home interiors, we walked away with some great pictures of our newest family member. I've been able to get great holiday and milestone photos of our family. Because of this camera, I have found a love for photography and a desire to delve deep into it. It's a desire I didn't know I had. The kit lens is ok, there are better lenses but it's a great lens to get started with if you're learning. I have since purchased a couple of primes and an off-camera flash though I did use the kit lens for over a year and still break it out every now and then. Looking back, I thought the price tag was a little high. As I've learned more over the last couple of years, I would say this camera is absolutely worth the money given the quality of images, performance, and features.
