Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently upgraded to the Sony A7 IV, and it has completely transformed my photography experience. The 33MP sensor delivers stunning image quality with amazing detail and vibrant colors, perfect for my wildlife photography. Autofocus is lightning-fast and incredibly accurate, even in challenging conditions. The customizable settings make it versatile for both photography and video work, and the 4K 60p video capabilities are outstanding. The ergonomics are perfect, and the menu system is much more intuitive than before. Battery life is impressive, allowing me to shoot for hours without worry. Whether you’re a professional or an enthusiast looking to take your skills to the next level, the Sony A7 IV is worth every penny. Highly recommended!

I’m a sports photography looking to add a few more video shots and this camera is amazing. Definitely one of the best hybrid cameras. Great autofocus, has the flip out screen and utilizes a full size hdmi. You can’t go wrong

I was a Canon user for some time. After a research I decided for Sony. Until now I have no complaints, the image quality exceeds all my expectations. All the features are amazing. Is a little heavy with the Sony 24-70mm 2.8. Also use the Sigma adapter for my Canon lenses and work very wrll, no complaints at all. I am very glad with my selection on this camera, I have no regrets about this purchase and recommend this camera 100%.

Overall, the camera is solid. I previously had an a7iii, from which this is a huge step up. The unit I received had 3 dead LCD pixels (stuck green), which is unfortunate for SONY quality control, but not best buy's fault. 33mp photos look great, and you have great video codecs of 4k60 XAVC S-I, but for video the sensor readout speed is pretty atrocious (nearly 30ms), so any handheld or whipping will look sloppy and jello-like. The sensitivity is also not great, especially if you are shooting in LOG and need to overexpose. The EVF is nice, locking mode switch, top dial, and flip screen are all great. *FD: I returned this unit because of the defect, and best buy handled that properly, so I gave 4 stars.*

As a beginner stepping into the world of photography, the Sony A7 IV has been an exciting and sometimes overwhelming experience—but mostly in a good way. This camera is packed with features that, while advanced, still feel accessible once you start getting used to it. The image quality is incredible. Even with just the basic kit lens, my photos look sharp, colorful, and professional. The autofocus system is one of the standout features for me. It tracks eyes and faces automatically, which makes taking portraits or action shots much easier—I don’t have to worry about focusing manually or missing the moment. The camera has a lot of buttons and settings, which can seem intimidating at first. But once I spent some time watching tutorials and experimenting, I started to understand how much creative control it gives. The menu system is improved from older models, but still a bit confusing at times. Fortunately, there are customizable buttons, so I could set it up in a way that made sense for me. I’ve also started experimenting with video, and the 4K quality is stunning. The flip-out screen makes it super easy to record myself or get creative angles, which is great for vlogging. Overall, the Sony A7 IV might be a bit pricey and advanced for some beginners, but if you're serious about learning and want something you can grow into, it’s an amazing investment. It’s helped me improve quickly and made photography more fun and rewarding.

Amazing Full fram camera! Perfect for both Cinema and photography!

Fantastic camera. The sale that I got it on made it even better, but sale or no sale, this camera is a beaut. Feels great in your hands (I’m 6’6” and have large hands), the image quality is terrific, clean, sleek feel and look, and just a sturdy product. Cant recommend this enough for anyone wanting to step up their camera gear game. The Sony lens ecosystem is also vast, so there will be absolutely no trouble finding decent glass without breaking the bank.

This camera has been one of my best purchases to date! Lightweight, amazing quality, easy to use/learn & customize. Best of all is the battery life - does laps around other brands! Highly recommend! Been using it for over a year now for weddings & engagements and I can’t picture going back to any other brand I’ve used

Great camera for photography and video! I use this as my main camera now.

Absolutely stunning imagery, this mirrorless camera is the best I’ve try amongst multiple brands. The AI autofocus nails it every single time, nothing important out of focus. The LOG and other picture profiles for videos are incredibly amazing and a lot of room for color grading. But if you don’t want to color grade or don’t know there are profiles that look amazing right off the camera. Battery life is good, and something not many explain around; this camera has a 7K sensor , so your 4K video is what we videographers call “oversampled 4K” is like an ultra quality 4K

Perfect camera for entry level professionals. Easily able to shoot portraits, weddings or anything else at a professional level. 33 megapixels is kind of the sweet spot for photography where you still get enough detail for basically any print you may want to throw at it yet the file is size isn't unbearably large enough to slow your workflow down or fill up your computer. The lens selection with the Sony e mount system is just unmatched too. All around great camera for the price, if you need more megapixels maybe for professional landscape photography the a7rv is another great buy but honestly this camera is almost as good even being a couple years older. No regrets at all with this purchase!

I owned several Sony Cameras, this is by far my favorite. The A7IV has the right amount of MP, when you have too many, like the R series (I have the RIV) you will find a lot of noise in your photos, heavy files and slow down your processing time. The screen is perfect for an hybrid camera, all in one photo-video.

The Sony Alpha 7 IV is not just a camera its a creative revolution. From the moment I unboxed it, I knew this was something special. The image quality is breathtaking, with stunning detail and color straight out of the camera. Autofocus? Lightning fast and scary accurate, even in low light! Whether you're shooting highend video or capturing once in a lifetime photos, this full-frame mirrorless marvel delivers professional results with ease. Its intuitive, powerful and inspiring. Big thanks to Best Buy for the smooth, fast delivery and unbeatable service..shopping here made the experience even better! If you're on the fence, just jump..you will thank yourself later. Easily the best tech investment I have made in years!

This camera has so many great features and updates to the Sony ecosystem that there is very little to actually want this to also have as a feature. It’s a perfect hybrid camera especially something that’s not super focused in a particular niche. I’ve upgraded from the A7RM3 And a lot of the things that I wish would be an improvement this camera has. Amazing auto focus, great resolution, and awesome video features. I was originally a Canon shooter and this new upgrade further solidified my investment in the brand with Sony and I am glad of the choice that I have chosen.

This is my first Sony mirrorless camera. I've been a professional photographer for decades, now retired. This is the best camera I've ever used. And I've used a bunch of professional cameras over the years. The body is solid, fast, and the menu system is remarkably capable. All of the customization of the buttons is truly mind-blowing. The accuracy of the autofocus is better than anything I've ever used. The image quality is the best as well. I could not recommend this camera more highly for those of use who don't need 30 frames per second. The one weakness of this camera is that the maximum frame rater with the mechanical shutter is 10 fps. And if you use the electronic shutter, you do not want to shoot sports. I'm just fine with the speed. Otherwise, this is a camera that for the current price ($500 off, it's successor is due out before the end of the year) it's an outstanding value.

Incredible camera, does everything i expected it to based on my research. Went with Best Buy cause of their 4 year coverage and didn't want it shipped and sitting on my door step. Pickup was fast and easy.

This is pretty much about it's video capabilities. I mainly bought this camera for video but wanted to have a good camera for photos as well. Coming from a GH5s the Sony A7 IV is pretty amazing. Better video quality, excellent autofocus and man that shallow depth of field is pretty special with my f2.8 16-35mm lens. No focus breathing is pretty special too. Low light is really exceptional even when I tested it against an A7S III that I almost bought. The color is really good and I like how the colors seem more true to what you are filming in a rec709 setting vs my GH5s, the GH5 and GH5 II I tested against it. I like it much better in comparison to the A7S III too. I love the file size of 4K 24p too at 100mbps vs. 150mbps with Panasonic as well. This will save a lot of space on my computer. On top of this there are soo many cool lens options. But then there are all these frustrating things I have to deal with when using this camera. 1. If you film with 2 SD cards recording simultaneously it overheats in about 40 min in a 70 degree room. Even when the overheat setting is set to high. I had to switch to 1 card recording and lost my redundancy. At least it won't overheat now. I would be more than fine to see a little larger build so it would regulate heat better. 2. You can't use an external monitor and the on camera monitor unless you turn off the settings display on the external monitor. This means you can't see record, mic output etc. I had to get a cheap monitor with an HDMI out to get 2 screens to display the settings so I can change settings on the cam and also know what's happening when I film myself. 3. In the saved settings I can't just go in and set the white balance. I have to go into M or P or A to set the white balance and save it. This is far from ideal. Not being able to record simultaneously with 2 SD cards is almost a deal breaker for me but man the video quality and autofocus is sooooo good its hard to part with it.

Fantastic image quality for both photos and video. Autofocus is fast and reliable, including eye AF, and the dynamic range gives plenty of flexibility in editing. The camera feels well built, easy to customize, and performs great in low light. Battery life is solid for mirrorless, and overall it’s an extremely versatile camera that works well for travel, photography, and video. Highly recommended.

This is the second Sony A7iv camera I’ve purchased from Best Buy, one has a Sigma 70-200 2.8 lens and the other has the new Sony 50-150 f/2.. These are simply put… AMAZING CAMERAS.. The images are just beautiful and the menu is not that hard to navigate.. I’m more than impressed and happy with these purchases, especially when Best Buy has their sales going on!!

I purchased this camera to be my secondary photo body (to my a7riv) and my main video body. I have used it weekly for a few months and have had nothing but good experiences with it. Updated menu system and new customization options are both wonderful additions. The body itself is ergonomically perfect. 33 MP is a great sweetspot providing some cropability while keeping file sizes manageable. Shoots great video as well, even with 4k 60 being cropped. I would gladly give up uncropped 4k 60 and 4k 120 (offered by the a7siii) for the hybrid ability to shoot 33mp images.
