    Google the reviews, this is the best all around mirrorless camera on the market. Great low light capabilities. Decent megapixel amount, I’ve printed quality detailed 12x18 pictures (probably could print larger). Of course you’ll need great lenses (which Sony has) but I absolutely love this camera! This is my first Sony camera but it won’t be my last. I’m shooting professional quality photography. Thankful that I went to Bestbuy and the geek squad showed me the canon I was wanting then showed me the Sony. Told me to do my research on my own if I chose to but the quality pictures they had on display at their camera center and their camera knowledge was plenty. Go to a Best Buy with a camera center. Those guys have the camera knowledge and can take the time to explain it to get you what you need or want.

    A GREAT 'Basic' FF Camera!

    As a hobbyist, I love my A7iii as my 1st FF camera, coming from a Nikon APS-C. Sony delivers a great 'basic' camera with awesome results for less than what other big name brands offer! I will surely be using this camera for years to come! One of the reasons I got this is the superb autofocus, it works as advertised! My shots are on point, pictures are sharp and clear, depending on your lens, of course. For those starting out in photo/videography, this is a worthy investment to increase the quality of your photos/videos! (will update more in the future)

    I just bought this camera for a great deal. $500 off I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone. Don’t be afraid of the menu once you get familiar with it is a peace of cake. I was thinking of buying this camera for a while and finally bought it, coming from a Nikon D600 I totally loved the size of the Sony Aiii I know Nikon came out with a new mirror less camera but I have no regrets of buying this camera to me the size is perfect and the weight of it is awesome. Low light pictures and videos are great. If you’re thinking about getting this camera go ahead and buy it you won’t regret it. It’s not the same experience trying it out in the store then shooting pictures at the street, home or wherever you would like to shoot.

    Eye autofocus is lightning fast. Low light performance is killer. Video capabilities more than adequate for non-pro use. Great battery life with new model battery. Menus are tedious but exhaustive. Has USB-c but wish both card slots accommodated uhs-ii.

    Great deal on Sony full frame A7III

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    While not the latest from Sony, the A7III hit all my checkboxes for a reasonably priced full frame Sony camera. It's low light capability alone is reason enough to get this camera. 24MP seems to be a nice sweet spot between resolution and file size. I particularly like the compact size vs. a typical DSLR. The 28-70 lens is a decent lens, especially affordable as part of the kit sold with the body. I opted for "open box" and everything was perfect in the original box with full warranty. The savings essentially made the lens free, which is unbeatable without buying used. Best Buy shipped the camera quickly and ordering online was fast and easy. I hope to add additional lenses from Best Buy in the future, along with SD cards, spare battery, etc.

    This camera is amazing and intimidating. I come from a Rebel T7 canon and when i first did a photo shoot with the sony.. i was so mesmerized with the quality.. it doesn't compare! Make the big jump. It cost a pretty penny but it is definitely worth it.

    Beautiful entry level camera. The kit lens that comes with this is decent, but you should always look for a better lens. Practice with the kit lens first so that you can figure out what kind of photography you're into and then purchase a lense accordingly. But other than that, this camera works wonders
