I have owned every A7r camera including the original, A7rii, A7riii, and now the A7riv. The A7riv is the first big image quality improvement in years! Is it worth it to upgrade to 60MP? Definitely but be aware that this still a specialized camera and not an action camera.

This is a great camera and a phenomenal upgrade. It does however have some limitations. For years the A7r series was the flagship camera of Sony's line. However we must remember this is really geared for landscapes and studio work were lighting conditions are controlled and you don't need to shoot fast action. Sony has diversified with the A9 and A1 line with the A9 being sports and the A1 being the dedicated all-around flagship camera with little compromises. For your everyday photographer who is not shooting ballet dancers or basketball games regularly, this should be perfectly suitable for their needs. Even professional wedding and street photographers will find little to complain about. Only the most demanding action photographers pushing the limits will want more.

So, in the week I have had it, I can say it is a solid camera. I hope Sony will make improvements with firmware as they did with the Mark III. I feel that this is much more of a specialist camera than the A7R III due to the big increase in resolution. If you are looking for a better all round camera with high resolution, I would go for the A7R III.

The camera is marvelous. The ergonomics, and the weight, are exceptional for my purposes. If you're coming from a dslr, this is the first mirrorless camera I have tried with an acceptable view finder experience. As for the other pros and cons, there are plenty of reviews on the net.

liking the camera after a few months of use. sometimes difficult to get correct focus in some situations, such as wildlife photography of birds in air.

Arrived quickly,and in good condition. very pleased.

The auto focus is the best I've ever used. I've not used the A9 II but easily better than the 1DX II or D5. Shocked at how good the AF was in all cases. The picture quality is a different story not impressed at all. At 1 to 1 it doesn't compare to a GFX 100 or even GFX 50 for that matter. It's saving grace is you can apply heavy amounts of noise reduction and it will still be pretty detailed for web use. If you're buying this and thinking you're going getting amazing image quality I'd say look elsewhere. The A7R III, D850, Panasonic S1R, all make nicer images.

I paired it with the 12-24 mm GM 2.8 lens as I'm primarily interested in landscape photography. This camera is a beast and the 12-24 mm GM 2.8 lens is another beast in itself. I'm thoroughly amazed. You could go to any interesting areas and get stunning results. The level of resolution is amazing. You can come home and can relive the whole hiking or adventure experience. Its impressive to print them in poster sizes. With this resolution, you can zoom into the pictures and be amazed at the level of details. You can zoom, crop away and still get a great picture. Its also very easy to adjust the menus, transfer it to computer. The combination is a lot of money however.

This is the camera that put my 50 mp Canon 5DS into retirement. It's not just the additional 10 mp you get with the a7riv, it's also the superior quality of Sony's lenses, the superior dynamic range of the sensors, and the amazing Sony focal systems. I've shot everything from landscapes to sports to fashion with my iv. It never disappoints and routinely amazes---detail and tonal contrast is better than anything I've ever used before. With the Sony 70-200 mm G lens, the iv does a superlative job at just about everything. My Canon bodies and lenses are now a back up system. There's a steep learning curve with the iv, and of course, the raw files are huge and cumbersome, but it's all worth if if image quality is your goal.

This is my go to camera for fashion portraits! It always gets the shot and I am amazed at the low light performance at such high resolution. This camera does take some time getting used especially if your coming from a non-R series Sony camera. It’s ergonomics is 100x better than the previous models therefore making a battery grip obsolete.

I heard great things about the A7 IV so I bought it along with this kit and I gotta say that it's beyond what I imagined. Incredible machine, it makes my job effortless.

I shoot a lot of wildlife photography especially bird and I'm amazed at the Eye-tracking AF performance. I hardly miss a shot. Overall, I highly recommend the A7 IV to any serious photographer.

As a seasoned photographer, the A7IV's swift autofocus and crisp image quality elevate my street photography to a whole new level.

The A7IV's compact size and advanced features make it my go to choice for on the go shoots, striking the ideal balance between portability and performance.

Great camera, took longer than expect, was hoping to get before Christmas

Sony's A7IV has become my preferred camera for event photography, seamlessly blending exceptional image quality with intuitive controls.

The Sony a7 IV disappointed me due to what seemed like constant focusing issues, but after troubleshooting, I realized it was more about understanding the advanced autofocus system. The learning curve might be steep for some, and it took a while to grasp the nuances. Once I got the hang of it, the camera performed admirably, but the initial frustration was a downside.

My experience with the Sony a7 IV was ruined by a shipping nightmare. The camera arrived significantly later than promised, causing major inconvenience for a time-sensitive project. left a sour taste on me.

Frustrating interface, delayed shipping, essential accessories absent. Disappointing.

Having tested the a7 IV extensively, it's become my top choice for its image quality, particularly the sharpness and color science that stand out in every frame, Sony has come along in performance, very please with it.

I have couple of friends who use Canon, and swear by their cameras, Canons are good cameras overall there's no denying, but were surprised of the sharpness and video quality right out of the camera, that they wanna buy their on sony for video yet still use their Canons for photos, that was enough confidence boost to know that i made the right choice

A7IV's video excellence shines as well as photo images, making it my go to professional hybrid, giving the versality and reliabilty that I need to depend on projects.

From portraits to 4K videos, A7IV meets all of my creative needs, I haven't felt like I'm missing out from other cameras, It is that good

Whether it's photography or videography, the A7 IV and FE 28-70mm lens deliver exceptional results every time, versatiliy in the palm of my hands.

Event photography made easy with A7IV's reliable performance and the Fe 28-70mm kit lens delivers surprisingly well, not leaving me "stranded" on a job

A7IV is my all in one solution for photography or videography, Sony nailed it with A7IV's low-light performance and 4K video.
