    I want to love this camera and I’m 75% percent there. I do have the eye AF issue that others are experiencing and hoping that Sony releases a firmware to fix it. Other than that the camera is awesome. At this time, I wouldn’t recommend this camera until there is a fix from Sony.

      Hi, Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. We are aware of reports regarding the focus accuracy of the Real-time Eye AF function. We have confirmed that objects in front of the eyes such as eyebrows, eyelashes, and the subject's nose may be in focus instead of the eyes. We are studying this behavior and working to improve the accuracy of the Real-time Eye AF function. Don't hesitate to contact us periodically for a status update regarding any improvement measures. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience and feedback. Steps to improve performance
      • In low light situations, increase the depth of field by stepping the F-stop value up to a higher setting.
      • For example, move from the lowest settings of F1.2, F1.4, and F1.8 to F2.8,F3.5, or F4.
      • Use a flash or move to an area of better lighting to get a better Eye AF focus lock. Thank you, and appreciate you choosing Sony. Amy (Sony Social Support) Sony_US

    Amazing camera, but I'll give one a bad point on the overheating, is not cool at all that you spend so much in a new camera en it overheats after using it for what it is for. Obviously you can just let it cool down but is not practical for working during a photo session or a wedding/event where you cannot tell you clients to hol the moment meanwhile. Game changer when this happens.

The camera has a function that allows you to record longer before it shuts down to prevent overheating.

If the camera still overheats after setting this function, we suggest you contact our phone support at 239-245-6360 so we can check further. Thank you for choosing Sony.

    Sony is just a leader in the Mirrorless game. This camera espeically being a hybrid just packs a punch. I originally had the Sony A7 II, which I now use a my secondary/backup camera. A7 IV is my new baby. Besides the initial 4K video overheating issue, it's a great all around beast.

    I upgraded from the Sony A6000 and could not be happier with my choice for a full frame camera. I’m happy I stuck with the Sony interface vs going to a different brand.

    Totally blown away by this camera. Coming from a6000, focus speed and precision are unbelievable. In body image stabilization does miracles. Noise free ISO 400 images. Finally can concentrate on more artistic aspects like composition, posing, light etc.
