Product Reviews

Bought this over a month ago and not impressed with the camera,

I’ve owned it for 2 months now and had some amazing results from it, extremely pleased with my purchase

I Bought this as an upgrade from an a7r3 I have been using a few weeks now a very welcome upgrade

I brought this camera 3 weks ago and i love the quality of images. the built is perfect for my hands and i like the menu system( ok a bit confusing in the begining ) but very well indicated how to use it. so far i love it.

Had this camera just over a month and have to say I am very impressed with the pictures taken so far.

Such a beautiful camera to use. I’m doing a lot of football photography and the images I’m getting are superb even in JPEG format. My only criticism is the menus are far too complex. I stick to aperture priority with ISO set to determine speed for the light available. Simoles

Been using for over a year now, Been awesome compared to my old canon d5, Carnt complain at all, Other than the price of lenses

Purchase the camera a month ago: knowing that it was considered to be old technology! However, it's awesome does everything and more than hoped for!

First class sensor, allows significant cropping whilst maintaining adequate resolution. Impossibly complicated menu and poorly designed.

I got this Camera this month and am learning new things every day. I am starting to enjoy changing settings by touch screen, this is really grwat technology. The quality of the photos is amazing. I have very happy I got the camera.

Good customer service at Wisma atria. camera is good , still testing as hobbyist. Upgraded from ZV e10. Recommend anyone to buy with very good picture quality. attached sone pics taken in low light. Good dynamic range

This camera is not, of course, now the latest model but I don't anticipate upgrading again just yet as the M4 version is adequate to my needs just now. Firstly, about the increased pixel count: Did I feel the need for 61MPx? No. But, now that I have it, I am happy to get the benefits. Lenses that were good enough for the 42MPx A7RIII have proved perfectly adequate for the greater pixel count camera. Also, the ability to crop more than before is used and enjoyed. I have not found any significant loss of dynamic range or per-pixel quality in the newer sensor. Here are some other aspects of the A7RIV that I really appreciate * Better screen than the A7RIIII - seems larger and with greater pixel count. * I love the My Menu facility which allows up to 30 selected items from the full menu across 5 'pages'. You can also set My Menu to appear first by default when you press the Menu button. I actually use this more than the Fn button, which I also like. * I also love being able to allocate three groups of settings to the 1, 2, 3 positions of the Mode dial. I have position 1 set for action photography with shutter speed pre-set to (say) 1/1000th, aperture to F/2.8, ISO on Auto, focus mode set to C, and focus area set to subject tracking. Position 3 is set up for manual focusing at 1/00th sec, F/4, ISO 320. I can, of course, alter these shooting parameters on-the-fly using the front and rear dials (which does not alter my pre-set values). By the way, subject tracking is really good in reasonable lighting and still useful in poor lighting. I have owned each of previous three version of the A7R and have welcomed the improvements with each model.

I bought this camera just over three weeks ago, it's a fantastic camera that has totally exceeded my expectations. I bought the camera to shoot a mix of urban landscapes, street photography and street portraits. The camera doesn't get in the way, it just facilitates the pictures I want to take. The audio focus in unbelievably good. The continuous focus with tracking is really handy when taking pictures on the street. And with camera set to Eye AF priority when the camera sees a face it just locks on and focuses on their eye. The tilt rear screen is excellent and is very useful for composing pictures on the fly when you don't want someone to notice that you're taking their picture. Throughly recommended.

In the few weeks since purchasing my Sony A7R4a I believe the camera has enabled me to up my game as a professional photographic artist. Initially I wasn't sure I could afford the upgrade from my sony a7r2 but now I believe I couldn't afford not to. Since starting photography in 1996 I have used an Olympus, Cannon, Nikon and Fuji but my current camera is my favourite.

I won this in an ebay auction for a fair price. Coming from Canon 6D Mark II I use a Metabones adapter for my Canon lenses but find the autofocus is slow with respect to sports kind of photo's (dog running toward me, bird in flight). I recently got my Tamron 28-200 f/2.8-5.6 which is a great small and lightweight combination. High ISO produces a similar noisy image compared to my Canon but the noise reduction seems to work much better and the high resolution provides plenty of cropping or scale-down options. I love having dials for all variables of the exposure and customizable buttons, menu and quickmenu. Downside is the limited touch functionality, having to browse the many somewhat unsorted menu's for the options I need and the lack of a fully articulating screen especially when shooting low in portrait orientation. Also dust collecting on the sensor which is always exposed is annoying. This is all compared to the Canon I was used to for the past 5 years

I upgraded from a A7R3 wanting the new design and grip and not really thinking about image quality. 42MP files were great from my old camera. Having used the new model now quite a lot I find the detail in the files fantastic along with the huge cropping ability very useful. The series 4 camera bodies from Sony are just fantastic whether you choose the R models or not. Well worth the upgrade.

My third Sony a7r now, previously had the a7r3 and the a7rIv which was stolen so a slight upgrade to the A model. 61mp suits landscape photography and other styles, a very versatile model.

The A7iv would be my first camera and I have second camera. I have taken the A7iv to basketball and I have got some good results, working with sport hall lighting is challenging and the fast action also requires quick focussing. The results are above expectations and I have some learning to do with the settings. I have also used on birds and with the long lens that images are fantatic in their clarity and detail which is helped with the 61mp sensor

Bought this 3 weeks ago. . took those photos paired with the SEL200-600mm G len. Super sharp images. Great camera and len!

From the Nex.to the A7 ii and now this. Its all I thought it would be and then some. The only down side Sonys poor manuals

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the dynamic range and quality of the images and the features that support these elements. Very happy with the camera. Additional feature I would like to see in the camera is the ability to change the file size from 61Mb to 30Mb. Plus in-camera consolidation of images when using Pixel Shift.

I was using typical camera brands through the years like canon fujifilm etc, this time is my first time to step in sony cameras and take this a7Riv...the big sensor is a grant and 61mp just give me insane size of picture...though it comes a bad effect that both my current cards capacity and computer are not enough to handle such heavy projects....I wish Sony somehow gives us lossless compress raw option... Video wise it is as capable as A73 even it is marketed as photo camera, but 4k options not that great it is only comes with 25p and 100mbps....but still useful in 2022 since 4k is still a rare thing, 1080p is great... also I got the 50mm 1.8f and tamron 28-200 lens, I am happy that Sony lenses are not as expensive as they were...I am planning to get some more G primes in future

I bought this A7RIV less than a month I have done some test shot indoor and outdoor, the image attached test shot with Sony Zeiss 24-70mm F4.0, the high ISO image quality still acceptable with ISO 4K and 5K. The burst shot or High Continuous never disappointed me, the animal eye AF not as good as A7RV but I still managed to capture my furkid with some nice photo

Swapped from canon to sony. No regrets. Started with A7R3.Upgraded to A7R4a
