Customers are saying

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.

    The best camera I’ve ever owned. I’ve had the a6000, 6400, 7II and now the 4r. Has and does everything I need and performs flawlessly.

    This camera is by far the best mirrorless camera on the market. It takes immaculate photos and videos at both close and far ranges.

    This camera is amazing! It does all the work for you and easily delivers awesome photos. You almost have to work to get bad results. It’s the best camera I’ve ever owned.

    A Great Improvement To An Already Strong Line

    The a7R IV is a very well thought out upgrade to the already loved a7R III. This camera features upgraded buttons, grip and finally, a locking exposure compensation dial. Sony continues to listen and innovate based directly on the feedback of their users. Their ability to listen and implement so directly and quickly is something the camera industry is simply not used to. The 61MP sensor is something simply incredible. Way more resolution than most people need, but not a downside in any way. Just be prepared to stock up on some high-capacity memory cards. My love for this camera comes mainly from the increased comfort features I mentioned above, like buttons and the grip. If you are a serious photographer, take a serious look at this camera. There is really nothing to complain about.

    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!!!

    Upgraded from the 7R2, huge improvement. Great focus. This camera is very user friendly (I have been shooting with Sony for 10 years), if you are familiar with the Sony menus you will not have any trouble getting familiar with this camera. Great battery life, the upgraded grip is much better then what the 7r2 had, it feels more secure in your hand.

    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.

    This camera is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend this camera to take your photography to the next level! I am coming from a Nikon D750 (full frame DSLR) and the pictures this Sony captures is amazing. The auto focus, the tracking of subjects with auto focus, pet eye tracking, everything is just great about this camera. If you can afford it, but it. Also, make sure you buy good glass to go with it (G Master is worth it).

    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.

    Love this rig! Aspiring professional photographer and wanted the extra pixels to crop super close without loss of resolution. This fits the bill perfectly. Great build quality and easy to use if you understand manual photography and shooting with RAW. Went with this over canon due to pro level lens prices. It was a very hard call though.
