Excellent camera!! Takes great photos and videos. I have no complaints regarding this camera whatsoever. One piece of advice would be to upload the photos directly to your laptop and email them to your phone from there. The app that allows you to transfer them from the camera directly to your phone is not only terrible to use, but it makes the photos lesser quality and adds a bit of blur to them.
The photos I’ve added are taken by this camera with a FE 28-70 mm F3.5-5.6 OSS lens that I purchased as a bundle with it.

I’ve upgraded to the Sony a7iii after using a dslr Nikon d3400 for many years and let me say it was the best decision I could’ve made! I’m an automotive photographer so I’ll include some shots I’ve taken!

I have used different camera's since past decade from cannon and Nikon. Cannon mirrorless and Sony alpha a6000 this is the best upgrade. Even though this camera is few years old it can still keep up with current gen cameras. I clicked some crazy photos with this camera, absolutely love Sony alpha.

i am loving my camera. she really steps up when i have moving targets or multiple focal points. i would definitely recommend Sony and mirrorless cameras if you are continuing photography for a hobby/career. Sony has GREAT features, but you have to make sure you get the right lenses as well.

Webcam MacOS Users Beware

Warning, my review is focused on the webcam capabilities. The photo and video quality are OK. I still prefer my iPhone 15 pro in most situations though. There's just not enough of a difference unless you intend to use it for macro, telephoto, or other edge-case scenarios.
Biggest Gripe: Webcam Usability
If you want to use your very expensive camera to double as webcam because you want to get maximum usage out of your 2,000 device, be aware that it might not be supported. As of this review, Sony's Imaging Edge Webcam software, which is required because the camera OS can't webcam natively, does NOT support the latest MacOS 14 as seen in the image.
When I went to Sony Support, they recommended I buy a USB video card and could not tell me when their software will be updated to support the latest MacOS. Still, I tried a video card and the output quality is terrible.
If I had known, I would have gone for a newer, cheaper option. The OS and lack of post-release updates are a huge limitation of this camera and many other. It's like investing in an expensive laptop with no support or software updates after-sale.
Bottom Line: Look for a camera that's been released within the last 3-4 years. They'll (hopefully) have the every-day, quality of life features and support that this one sorely lacks.

Excellent camera. I bought this camera for my company to improve our instagram posts and wedding photography. This camera is nothing short of amazing. You will be immediately impressed with the results from the kit lens. Pair it with a prime lens and be prepared to be blown away. This is a must have for anyone wanting to step up their photography game to a professional level. Two words.... “Buy it”.

I’ve had a Nikon D3400 and was pleased with the photos; however, this Sony has made me believe I’m a professional photographer. The clarity is insane and the lightweight body is beyond useful. I think I will forever be a Sony girl!

I love this camera. It’s everything I’ve been look for and then some. I’ve been with Canon for the last 5 years, but I knew I needed to upgrade to create better content. I don’t regret this purchase and you won’t either.
Only downside is that there isn’t a charger that comes with the camera, but I can still plug it in to charge accordingly.

This product is great.... I’m an amateur photographer that specializes in automotive/drift photography and the quality of the photos is amazing. There is a lot to learn with this camera... it has so many settings it’s unbelievable. To some, it may be too much but out of the box with the lens it does great work. This is coming from an A7ii upgrade, does great work. Lenses are pricy but you pay for quality.
