    Very happy with this camera but the price was a little hard to deal with. The menus like most sony’s are a little hard to navigate but other than that, no complaints!

    Sony has been pioneering the mirrorless world of professional photography! I have watched almost all of my favorite photographers slowly convert over to Sony's mirrorless camera systems! They are the leaders of innovation in the camera industry in my humble opinion, and the new A7SII is no exception!

    This is an amazing camera. The shots it takes are mind blowing with high quality, an amazing sensor and wonderful 4k footage. Coming from Canon the camera options feel completely counterintuitive, and the video has some pretty rough rolling shutter, so you want to either have a solid stabilizer or be shooting from a tripod.

    Wonderful camera. I've used on several shoot and have only been impressed. Great 4K output in a very compact body.

    Sent me a used camera

    I can't express enough my disappointment. Ordered this camera and had it overnighted, when it arrived I notices the box was worn, along with the tabs that keep the box closed. Having purchased lots of equipment, this was red flag #1. When I picked up the box, the camera was loose inside. Opening the box it was evident that the components and camera we're not packed by the factory. Getting down to the unsecured camera, the mesh sleeve holding it was full of hair. I refused delivery and immediately called customer service, explaining what I'd just received. I explained that I needed the camera for a shoot in two days, and she assured me how sorry she was and a new camera was being expedited. When I get the tracking it shows UPS Ground for service... Perfect... Called back, even though the package hadn't been picked up by UPS yet, they we're unable/unwilling to update the deliver service to next day (the service I paid for).. Never again

    Don't substitute a fold out LCD for a phone app that DOES NOT WORK. Waste of my time and money. I paid more for this camera than I did for my car. I'm done with Sony.
