    I love Sony cameras. The a7IV doesn't disappoint! My only complaint is that you have to change some settings for video, because if you don't it overheats after 5 minutes of recording.

    This was bought as an upgrade from my Canon. The weight is lighter than I thought it would be and it's easy to carry with the kit lens. Well worth the price and would recommend if you're looking for something that is geared for both photos and videos.

    I ended up going all in on an amazing camera - primarily to up the quality of my family & vacation photos and boy does this camera not disappoint. It's a perfect hybrid, and the 33 MP's are more than enough to satisfy most photography use cases. I paired this with the 55mm f1.8 and all the photos have just been spectacular. Easy to use, travels well, great online community, and wide array of lens choices make this one a no brainer!

    This is the first digital camera I've ever purchased with great determination. I use it to take photos of family and friends against beautiful backdrops, and for church events. Most of the time, I'm very satisfied with the results. When I have the money, I'd like to try out a better lens.
