Customers appreciate the Alpha 7R IV's excellent image and video quality, high resolution, and ease of use. Many also praise the improved autofocus and grip compared to previous models. While some find the camera pricey and the menu system challenging, the overwhelmingly positive feedback centers on its superior image capabilities. The large file sizes associated with high-resolution images are also a noted drawback for some users.

I have been using this camera for a few months now and love it. I switched from Canon to Sony and it hasn't disappointed me so far. The autofocus never seems to miss. However, you must know that the auto eye detect focus struggles a bit if rest of the face is heavily covered. It seems to handle well in cold well below the specs as well. The menu and settings may be a little bit of a learning curve coming from a different brand but once you get a hand of it, you can fully customize all the buttons

got it for video eye AF and tracking
dont care for 61mp that much
but on a well lit day you definitely see the difference on resolution
low light performance isnt of course as good as a 24mp bsi sensor
xtra fine xpegs come out around 40mb compared to 15ish mb of a7 iii
also I noticed portraits are abit sharper with crisper colors
probably due it being an R and not having extra filter layer in front of sensor.
I like it so far.

Sony AR7IV Fullframe Mirrorless camera

After owning a Nikon D7200 (which I sold) and a Nikon D850 (which I'm keeping as a backup camera), I decided to go back to Sony when they came out with the Sony AR7IV.
I shot Sony for a number of years and love the ease of learning and use of their cameras. The same is true of this camera. It's pricy when you start adding multiple lenses to go with it, but it has been worth every dollar.
The picture quality is also superb!!!

Sharp is an understatement no matter what’s in the the frame I can crop for days and it will still be sharp even if it wasn’t my object in focus.

Love this camera, was concerned about low light performance coming from an a7 III but was still blown away.
It is a little more finicky as the noise is more noticeable, but mostly I don't see more noise shooting them side by side. It is more that the noise is easier to see see with the high resolution I feel. The photos that I feel I can't use seem to be photos I wouldn't have even had on the a7 III.

Upgrade from an A7R II. Like the update on features, including higher number of megapixels allowing a closer crop, when needed.

I owns a trio of Sony A7 series (A7iii, A7Riii and A9, and I recently added the A7Riv to my collection and this in no uncertain terms my most favorite. Even thought it doesn't have the speed of the A9, this 61mp full frame mirrorless camera is ridiculously capable in every aspect and I couldn't be happier owning it.
