    I’ve had this thing for a couple years now. If you get your settings right and your main use is video, it’s still the beat camera out there.

    Exactly what I was looking for. Does everything that I need it to do plus some. Needed an upgrade to a camera with 4K and full frame - couldn't be happier with the purchase. Still love my M4/3 systems but needed full frame for certain projects.

    its a great camera and does what I need perfectly. I wish the build quality was better like the a9. The joystick has kinda toy feel and the screen could be better like the a9.overall I love it but the kit lens is trash.

    Pro Full-Frame Performance

    New full-frame 24 MP back-lit sensor combined with new A9 auto-focus gives pro performance at a semi-pro price. The ability to push ISO to 6400 or higher and still get quality images means you can get great low light images and more flexibility out of F4 and lower stopped lenses.

    I don't like this camera, it's too complicated to work with content quickly, it's hard to get a good picture out of this camera right away, keep this in mind before buying! This camera implies that you will take a good picture already on installation, but immediately after shooting you will not get a great result, I handed it over and changed it to fujifilm xt5, I am still waiting for it and I missed my return period by 2 weeks, nevertheless I am grateful to David for helping me pay extra for refund and exchange my camera for a new one, this guy was not in the mood for closure, but he still helped me do what I want) Thank you, man, you're cool!

    Even though I’m still a a novice in photography, I have been on the Canon side up until I discovered this camera. Sony has just been on top of their mirrorless cameras over Canon and Nikon, although I would like to own a camera with these brands sometime in the future for comparisons and differences, and for the price and specs this one has it made me switch from using Canon to Sony. I haven’t used it as much but I am looking forward to using it more often to help me build my photography skills.

    Used to own a Canon 80d. This is a big upgrade especially switching from a dslr to a mirrorless. I recommend purchasing a converter such as sigma or metabones so you can use your canon lenses on your Sony camera. So far I’m enjoying the capabilities of this freak!!!
