After discovering that a charger needed to be 0urchased seperately, the disappointment was over. I emmediately discovered, after a few shirt hours, that the controls and capabilities were relatively simple to learn for even a novice photo like myself. Since then, I have only the highest praise for this camera, especially the auto-adjust lighting capability, as well as the 4k quality imaging. Not dissapoi ted in the least!

I did as much reading as I could before I bought this camera but quickly discovered that it would not focus very well in low light. Since this was my first step into full frame and for the purpose of shooting weddings and receptions, it was not going to fill the need I had. I returned it after trying to use it for roughly 3 weeks. Is an awesome camera for brighter lit subjects and especially landscape photography.

Ok not just doing it for the points but this camera is pretty sick for a full frame compared to Canon and the price.

Sony has taken the best of quality SLR cameras and shrunk it into a body for a lighter experience. Unfortunately, if you don't have small hands the camera will be difficult to grip.

I like the camera. You can take very good pictures in dark area. What is not so good is the "Play Memories Home" program to download pictures into a Windows PC. The program goes to the Pictures folder and find all jpg files and for each jpg files, the program automatically creates modd files.
It is recommended that you should not delete these modd files. I currently have over 20,000 jpg files and now, an additional 20,000 modd files. The program needs to be modified without these extra files.

So far I haven't had any problems with the camera. I've been & still am using Canon DSLRs so I'm still learning the controls & operation but enjoy its light weight. I bought it with the kit zoom lens and later added the 50mm 1.8 but the high cost of lens makes additional lens purchases unlikely.
