Great features but 1 problem
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this camera. Great pictures and video quality. I decided to use this camera on my trip and leave my a7S III at home. The dual SD card is nice feature to have. My favorite feature is being able to access the camera through the app even with the camera being off. Fits in my hands pretty well and the full touch screen is a decent upgrade to previous Sony cameras (I was previously using an a6100). The main issue I have with this camera is overheating. After 5-10 minutes (could be less) of recording, I get an internal temperature too high and it shuts down. I proceeded to upgraded the firmware and same problem occurs. I try to take smaller interval videos, but that only helps a little. Missing on few moments is kind of disappointing especially when you’re in a once in a lifetime experience. This is making me wish I brought my a7S III instead. I would still recommend this camera depending on how much you need to rely on recording videos.

Worth EVERY Penny!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worth every penny and then some! Any of the "downsides" you hear or read on the internet are minor in comparison to the quality this camera can produce. After having my a7iii for a few years I was worried that I would be disappointed. After receiving my a7iv I have not missed the a7iii one bit! In my opinion useless you need a full "professional" setup the a7iv is more than capable!

Amazing Camera For Hybrid Shooters
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera has changed my life already! I'm coming from an a7iii, so this was a big upgrade. Being able to shoot 4K 60fps footage now has been great. It sucks that it's cropped but it still gets the job done!

Sony's best camera yet
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely a massive improvement over the A7III, the autofocus is just incredible. I never really used my A7III for video but with the quality of video this camera takes, I've found myself recording more and more. Everything about this model is just amazing.

Amazing quality

I would recommend this to a friend Still recommend in 2025
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this in the last Black Friday, it is out for a few years, but still very capable. I still recommend this in 2025 if price is good. Good about this camera is: 33m pixels is enough for daily uses; good focus speed, probably better than other brands; the lens are also very impressive, I have 70-200 GM, 28-70 F2 GM, with this 2 GM lens, it covers 90% of my use cases, the photos are phenomenal!
