  Generalist photographers, wedding, event and action shooters and those that need high quality video.

• -

  Those that need more resolution for detailed scenes or large prints, those that need ultimate build quality for harsh shooting conditions.

Neither the fastest nor highest resolution, the A7 III is still be best all-around full-frame camera.

  Excellent still image quality, Excellent 4K video, 10 FPS continuous shooting, Significantly improved battery life, Best value in its class

• -

  Slightly heavier than mark II model

The Sony Alpha A7 III is a highly versatile and feature-packed camera that redefines what we can expect from a full-frame body at this price point. It delivers crisp and satisfying images from its 24 Megapixel full-frame sensor, captures good-looking 4k video in either full-frame or cropped APSC...

Simply put, the Sony A7 III is the finest example of the most affordable full-frame camera on the market. It’s a sensational camera for the money and compliments the ever-evolving Sony A7-series quite brilliantly.

• +

  Excellent value for money, Improved battery stamina, Fast and responsive autofocus system, Revised button layout for intuitive control

• -

  AF point illumination could be improved, Convoluted menu system, Thin plastic port covers aren’t weather-sealed, Handles poorly with large gloves in cold climates

The Alpha A7 III is a brilliant camera that ticks a lot of boxes for many photographers. Sony has taken some of the best bits from its flagship Alpha A9 and A7R III, and distilled them into a single camera that offers a fantastic mix of performance and image quality.

• +

  693-point AF system, 10fps burst shooting, Uncropped 4K video, 15-stop dynamic range, 5-axis image stabilization, Compact and durable body

  Limited touchscreen control, Only one SD slot supports UHS-II cards, Slight 'tearing' in EVF, Poor weather-sealing round accessory ports

Sony referred to the A7 III as a "basic model" during their early promotion, whether jokingly or not, but the A7 III is far from being basic. Indeed, it's so well-specced on paper that it surprised a lot of people who weren't expecting such a well-appointed camera, and thankfully that promise has...

Ever since I've got my A7 III, I find myself grabbing A7 III more often than my A7R III.For the most part, I think A7R III's resolution is absolute overkill and only needed for specific purposes.

After shooting more than half a million images on Canon DSLR cameras, I just switched to the new Sony A7 III. Reading early reviews of the A7 III got me really curious last month. Tests came in an I was sold.

The Sony A7III is an amazing camera. I would buy it again. Just about every time I use it, some of the results make me say wow. Doubtlessly you have heard the good stuff. I am going to write about some of its faults.

Great camera! They also come with a charger now!!!!! Solid upgrade from my a7ii

Note: I am a Sony Artisan which means I'm sponsored by Sony. I'm not an employee but they use me in a variety of ways to test new products, teach at workshops, give talks at trade shows, and work directly with camera stores by doing demos and training.

I had sold my a6500 & A7rii for 2 NEW A7iiis due to the fact my business partners and I do both video and photo work for many people and needed better reliability across the board with camera functions. The dynamic range in this camera adds so much depth and feeling to your photos like never before.

People complaining about the menu don't know how good they've apparently had it. The menu system is my favorite part about this camera, and I will explain why. Coming from higher-end Canon DSLRs, where camera "customization" essentially involves toggling button functions on and off and other basic...

Absolutely adore it.<br />Was a Canon boy for years but was blown away with specs of this one. No regrets!

  Durable, Great Features, Great Picture Quality, Lightweight, Simple Controls

  NONE so far

5 stars don't come easy for me, but the A73 earned every one of them. As a pro video user, doing adventure films. Fast, far better menus, much MUCH better tonality than the A7R2. Better battery life, although not outstanding by any means. Delighted at my upgrade.

I'm just anenthusiast coming over from a Canon 6D. In terms of image quality I really can't tell the difference between the Sony A7iii and the Canon 6D. I'm not someone who pushes the DR all that much. But when it comes to AF this camera blows the 6D away.
