No other full frame, interchangeable-lens camera is this light or this portable. 24.3 MP of rich detail. A true-to-life 2.4 million dot OLED viewfinder. Wi-Fi sharing and an expandable shoe system. It's all the full-frame performance you ever wanted in a compact size that will change your perspective entirely. From the Manufacturer Sony α7 Full Frame Compact Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera No other full frame, interchangeable-lens camera is this light or this portable. Features 24.3 MP of rich detail, a true-to-life 2.4 million-dot OLED viewfinder, Wi-Fi sharing and an expandable shoe system. It's all the full-frame performance you ever wanted in a compact size that will change your perspective entirely. Technology World's smallest and lightest1 interchangeable lens full-frame cameraSony's Exmor image sensor takes full advantage of the Full-frame format, but in a camera body less than half the size and weight of a full-frame DSLR.Full Frame 24.3 MP resolution with 14-bit RAW outputA whole new world of high-quality images are realized through the 24.3 MP effective 35 mm full-frame sensor, a normal sensor range of ISO 100 – 25600, and a sophisticated balance of high resolving power, gradation and low noise. The BIONZ X image processor enables up to 5 fps high- speed continuous shooting and 14-bit RAW image data recording.Fast Intelligent AF for responsive, accurate, and greater operability with full frame sensorThe high-speed image processing engine and improved algorithms combine with optimized image sensor read-out speed to achieve ultra high-speed AF despite the use of a full-frame sensor. Fully compatible with Sony's E-mount lens system and new full-frame lensesTo take advantage of the lightweight on-the-go body, the α7-series of full frame compact interchangeable lens digital cameras is fully compatible with Sony's E-mount lens system and expanded line of E-mount compact and lightweight full-frame lenses from Carl Zeiss and Sony's premier G-series.Simple connectivity to smartphones via Wi-Fi or NFCConnectivity with smartphones for One-touch sharing/One-touch remote has been simplified with Wi-Fi/NFC control. In addition to Wi-Fi support for connecting to smartphones, the α7 also supports NFC (near field communication) providing "one touch connection" convenience when transferring images to Android smartphones and tablets. Users need only touch devices to connect; no complex set-up is required. Moreover, when using Smart Remote Control — a feature that allows shutter release to be controlled by a smartphone — connection to the smartphone can be established by simply touching compatible devices. PlayMemories Camera Apps allows feature upgradesPersonalize your camera by adding new features of your choice with PlayMemories Camera Apps. Find apps to fit your shooting style from portraits, detailed close-ups, sports, time lapse, motion shot and much more. Use apps that shoot, share and save photos using Wi-Fi that make it easy to control and view your camera from smartphone, and post photos directly to Facebook or backup images to the cloud without connecting to a computer11. Additional Features Fast Hybrid AF w/ phase-detection for DSLR-like focusing speedEnhanced Fast Hybrid auto focus combines speedy phase-detection AF with highly accurate contrast-detection AF, which has been accelerated through a new Spatial Object Detection algorithm, to achieve among the fastest autofocusing performance of any full-frame camera. First, phase-detection AF with 117 densely placed phase-detection AF points2 swiftly and efficiently moves the lens to bring the subject nearly into focus. Then contrast-detection AF with wide AF coverage fine-tunes the focusing in the blink of an eye.New Eye AF controlEven when capturing a subject partially turned away from the camera with a shallow depth of field, the face will be sharply focused thanks to extremely accurate eye detection that can prioritize a single pupil. A green frame appears over the prioritized eye when focus has been achieved for easy confirmation. Eye AF can be used when the function is assigned to a customizable button, allowing users to instantly activate it depending on the scene.High contrast 2.4M dot OLED EVF for eye-level framingView every scene in rich detail with the XGA OLED Tru- Finder, which features OLED improvements and the same 3-lens optical system used in the flagship α99. The viewfinder faithfully displays what will appear in your recording, including the effects of your camera settings, so you can accurately monitor the results. You'll enjoy rich tonal gradations and 3 times the contrast of the α99. High-end features like 100% frame coverage and a wide viewing angle are also provided.3.0" 921k dot LCD tilts for high and low angle framingThe tiltable 3.0" (921k dots) Xtra Fine LCD Display makes it easy to photograph over crowds or low to capture pets eye to eye by swinging up approx. 84° and down approx. 45°. Easily scroll through menus and preview life thanks to WhiteMagic technology that dramatically increases visibility in bright daylight. The large display delivers brilliant-quality still images and movies while enabling easy focusing operation.PC control w/ remote video capture controlRemote Camera Control allows you to control your α7 from your PC using a USB cable. Feature control has also been updated to include video capture control.14-bit RAW output for rich tonal gradation14-bit RAW image data of extremely high quality is outputted by the α7. This data fully preserves the rich detail generated by the image sensor during the 14-bit A/D conversion process. When developed with Sony's Image Data Converter RAW development software, these images deliver the superb photographic expression and rich gradation that only 14-bit data can offer.New BIONZ X image processing engineSony proudly introduces the new BIONZ X image processing engine, which faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye, via extra high-speed processing capabilities. Together with front-end LSI (large scale integration) that accelerates processing in the earliest stages, it enables more natural details, more realistic images, richer tonal gradations and lower noise whether you shoot still images or movies.Full HD movie2 at 24p/60i/60p w/uncompressed HDMI outputCapture Full 1920 x 1080 HD uncompressed clean-screen video files to external recording devices via an HDMI connection in 60p and 60i frame-rates. Selectable in- camera AVCHD codec frames rates include super-smooth 60p, standard 60i or cinematic 24p. MP4 codec is also available for smaller files for easier upload to the web.Up to 5 fps shooting to capture the decisive momentWhen your subject is moving fast, you can capture the decisive moment with clarity and precision by shooting at speeds up to 5 frames per second. New faster, more accurate AF tracking, made possible by Fast Hybrid AF, uses powerful predictive algorithms and subject recognition technology to track every move with greater speed and precision.Multi-interface Shoe for flash and microphone flexibilityUnlike conventional cameras, the α7 features the advanced Multi- Interface Shoe that dramatically expands compatibility with Sony digital imaging accessories, thus raising the potential for photo/movie shooting.4K Still image output by HDMI8 or Wi-Fi for viewing on 4K TVsEnjoy Ultra High Definition slide shows directly from the camera to a compatible 4K television.

  • The perfect camera
Style: Base Set: Base
As an enthusiast photographer, that I am, I wanted to give a review from that perspective rather than a more technical perspective from , perhaps, a professional, which I am not capable of doing just yet Upon opening the box for the first time, I was immediately struck by the small form factor (and somewhat retro look - but just my opinion) and light-weight of the camera body. Indeed, I wasn't sure, at first, there was my camera inside the Amazon box UPS handed to me upon delivery (and UPS will require your signature for this item. Otherwise they are going to leave with nothing and come back another day). This camera body looks sharp. It's not completely magnesium metal body like its A7R higher priced sibling, but, rather, a mixture of metal and better plastics. But very hard to tell the difference. Point being, no one's going to accuse you of having anything less than a fine well-built camera. It feels good in the hand. A good grip for your right-hand. It's built like a tank. And it's weather sealed. All the buttons are where I want them to be. Perhaps the shutter button could be a little farther forward but it should be just a matter of getting use to it. The menu system is far easier to use and navigate than on my NEX6. And the NFC between the camera and my Android phone (Galaxy S4) is fast and convenient. The remote control function works very well. Checking latency revealed a very, very slight hesitency. But so minor. You'll hardly notice it. Just a nit-pick on my part (like the shutter button-certainly no game changers). I bought two lenses (there are only 5 of the FE lenses out as of this writing but Sony is releasing a total of 15 by 2015). The 35mm (very light) and the 55mm somewhat heavier and built well. I use the 35mm as a walk-around street lens because it compliments the light-weight and portability of the full-frame A7. In fact, this is why I bought the A7 in the first place. For street photography and scenics. At first I thought it would be a good 'stealth' camera for the street, but I have come to realize that with todays digital age we're just fooling ourselves if we think they don't know what we're doing. These two lenses, by the way, are Carl Zeiss and they have received some of the highest praise of any lenses on the market today. (A word of note, Sony is coming out with a 70-200mm lens full-frame for this camera April 20 2014 here on Amazon, $1495.00). So yes, the lens are expensive. But they are proving their worth. But one of the great advantages of these Sony cameras are their absolute adaptability too legacy lenses given numerous availability of lens-mount adapters for Minolta, Leica, Hasselbad, and then, of course, there's Nikon and Canon, as well as some others. So there is a way to get around the expense if you have legacy lenses laying around. Or you can buy some great glass on ebay cheaply which I'm told can rival, in some cases, some of the great glass of today. Finally, another great accessory which I bought, is Sonys Battery Grip which allows the use of 2 batteries and has a great form factor for the camera giving it a great grip, especially for larger hands as I have. Also I like the button placement. As you can see. I can't say enough about this camera. But it's totally worth it. In fact it's a steal at this price for what it does as a full-frame camera. With the 35mm lens (minus the battery grip), you can throw it in your shoulder bag or pocketbook, go about your day, and take stellar pictures. You won't regret this purchase. [...] Have a great day.

  • Great camera! Sony has hit a home run with this one.
Style: Base Set: Base
To start off, I'd just like to mention that I am not a professional photographer. I am a serious hobbyist traveler photographer, mainly photographing my travel adventures as well as photographing my children's precious moments when I'm at home. I must say, this Sony A7 really hits the bulls-eye for my needs. I used to carry a Nikon D600 with a 24-70mm f/2.8G "beast" lens. The complete system was quite cumbersome and heavy but the combination of the full framed Nikon D600 and the 24-70mm lens took absolute stunning shots when I was on the go. When Sony came out with the RX1r, I decided to give it a try and I was truly amazed with the quality of the pictures I was able to take with that camera. The RX1r's ability to take hand held night shots made that camera a real winner for me. Though my main issue with the RX1r was that I was stuck with the 35mm lens. That made the travel photography difficult but as a full frame "point and shoot" camera, the RX1r was as good as it gets. Then the A7 and A7r came out and general apples to apples, it looked as if the A7 was essentially a interchangeable lens version of the Sony RX1 series cameras. Being so happy with the RX1r, I decided to get the A7r paired with the Sony SEL2470Z Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm F4 ZA OSS Lens. The A7r took FANTASTIC photos during good light conditions but my main issue was that it was TERRIBLE in low light. At just an ISO of 1200, you can already see a hint of noise in low light conditions and once you bump that up to 2000+, the photos are generally polluted with noise. At 6400, it's essentially game over. As my home is generally not very well lit, using the A7r to take photos of my children only created photos that were generally not photo album worthy. However, the A7r really shines once you slap on a tripod and take scenery shots or when lighting is good. The imagine quality on the A7r is EXCEPTIONAL and the level of detail is top notch quality. The larger MP capabilities of the A7r are utilized very well. But since I generally shoot in low light and only 20% of my shots are scenic, I returned the A7r and got the A7 instead. Image quality wise, the A7 performs MUCH better in low light conditions over the A7r. There is a significant reduction in noise at ISO 2000 and 3200 shots and at ISO 6400, many of the shots I got were still very good. I generally found that the A7 performed better with portrait shots while the A7r really thrived with landscape shots. The autofocus on the A7r had a tendency to hunt more while the A7 was quicker in focusing, especially in low light conditions. I believe this is mainly due to the fact that the A7 has Phase Detection Auto focus (PDAF), while the A7r does not. Many have complained that the A7 also has a slow autofocus compared to other DSLR cameras on the market but I honestly can't really tell the difference. Compared to the A7r's 36.4 MP, the A7 does have a lower MP at "just" 24.3. Though I honestly, I doubt you'll really tell the difference unless you do some serious cropping or you do photography that really just requires high MPs. Exterior wise, both the A7 and A7r essentially look and feel exactly the same. Though the A7r has more metallic parts, like the dials and apparently the body as well, you generally can not tell the difference between them. Both the A7 and A7r are very nice to hold and shoot with. Both feel very fluid and crisp. The A7r does make a bit more noise when taking shots and the A7 is noticeably more quiet. I know some have complained that the A7 is still noisy when taking shots but I don't find it bothersome and I actually quite like the sound it makes. Coming from the Nikon D600, I did find that I had to get used to the layout of the Sony cameras. The menu system as well as the location of certain commands are not where I was used to them being. Though after a few days with the camera, navigating through the camera became a breeze. My only main complaint would be that the "zoom" button is a bit of a stretch for my fingers and does require for me to preposition my grip on the camera in order to press is properly. Battery life for the A7 and A7r are borderline decent to poor as you generally would get about 350 to 400 shots before you need a battery swap. I purchase a Wasabi battery charger and extra batteries to solve that problem. I also found the Wasabi wall battery charger much better than using Sony's direct to camera charging system. Another drawback I've noticed is that the start up time of the camera is relatively slow compared to the RX1r and significantly slow when compared to the Nikon D600. I never shoot video with my cameras so I'm sorry to say I can't comment on the A7's video capabilities. Overall, the A7 is a fantastic camera. Granted the A7r had a higher MP, the A7 just suited my shooting needs better (low light shots, portraits, running after the kids shots and travelling shots). Furthermore, even when paired with the larger SEL2470Z Vario-Tessar 24-70mm lens over the standard 28-70mm kit lens, the over all size and weight is still a HUGE upgrade over the significantly larger Nikon D600 and heavier the Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8G "beast" lens. The A7 really gave me the flexibility to carry the camera almost everywhere, making it perfect for my travel photography, while at the same time giving me the perfect shots that I look for in a camera, making it the perfect go to camera for me. All that's left is to hope Sony comes out with better and a wider range of lenses soon, which according to the news reports out there, they will. PS: If you see a Nikon D600 and a Nikkor 24-70mm lens for sale on eBay anytime soon, there's a good chance it's mine! I hope this review helps! ... show more
