    Camera is great but it's worth noting that you will need to purchase additional lenses for the maximum output. The lense that it comes with is good for close ups and I would avoid using the zoom for quality picstures

    Very nice camera, it helps you generate jpg-type images with good resolution and color quality, the bad thing is that it is heavy and tiring to have it in your hand or hanging from your neck, but for the price it seems very good for vlogging

    My first mirrorless camera and I was already impressed with the quality of this camera. I mainly bought it to record content for Youtube and vlogging. I was going to purchase a7iii a couple of months ago but I saw that Sony announced A7iv. Although the price wise A7iv is relatively expensive, I think it is worth the money. AF system is awesome!

    Don’t know how many professional photographers buy their cameras from Best Buy, but I did just because of an open box deal that saved me a little money. It seemed like it was new, registered new, and has been a fantastic camera in the 6 months I have had it.

    This was my first mirrorless camera after using a DSLR for several years prior. I'm happy with how well it handles low-light situations and how quickly it focuses! After using a mirrorless camera, using my old DSLR feels clunky and slow. Getting familiar with the settings will take you awhile though, so watch a lot of YouTube videos!

    Love this camera came from a Nikon Dslr and the size diffrence is amazing. I bought some f2.8 and the crispness and saturation of the pictures is amazing. I would highly recommend the Sony especially because the availability of aftermarket lenses like Tamaron and Sigma.

    genuinely modern all-arounder more than lives up to its price tag. It isn't the fastest shooter in its class, so serious sports or street photographers should search elsewhere. The A7 IV, however, is a reliable all-around player with few obvious flaws for everyone else. You might never need a camera again.
