    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.

    This is the absolute best bang for buck camera on the market. Amazing images (33MP) and 4K video in high dynamic range format. It’s an amazing hybrid camera with stunning photography and video features. I’d say almost the perfect camera.

    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!

    This is an excellent Hybrid camera, at 33mp the photos are the perfect file size for every type of photography. The video specs are also great, able to shoot 4k 10bit 422 in a small camera is amazing! Has some good slow motion in HD, all around a great unit with large selection of available lens.

    Having previously used Nikon cameras, I recently switched to the Sony Alpha 7 IV and was very impressed. This mirrorless camera offers outstanding image quality, fast autofocus, and a wealth of features suitable for both photography and videography.The only downside is the battery life, which could be longer.

    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.
