Photo answers review Photo answers rating A little over a year ago, Sony fired a warning shot across the bows of Canon and Nikon by releasing the world's first ever full-frame mirrorless camera – the A7. It was small, light and the image quality match...
Stellar imaging quality, 5-axis stabilisation massively boosts handheld performance, Top notch build quality and design
No 4K video option
The Sony A7 II is a truly superb high-end camera The A7 II's stabilisation sets it apart from every other full-frame camera on the market. For shooting handheld video, for shooting with long lenses or for shooting longer exposures in low light conditions...
Good picture quality up to ISO 6400, Buildquality, Premium electronic viewfinder, Mechanical stabilisation works with all lenses, Comprehensive video mode, Adjustable LCD screen, WiFi / NFC connectivity, Hot shoe for attaching accessories, Fast AF and 5fp
Battery life should be better, No builtin flash, LCD screen not touchsensitive, Shutter is too noisy, Rear settings wheel is too small, No USB 3.0, Still no separate battery charger, No 4K video
We had some excellent shooting sessions with the Sony A7 II. It's very nice to use and offers all-round performance. The picture quality is excellent, and, with the help of a lens converter, you can re-use all your old full-format lenses from different ma...
Hello , is it the A7 II you were looking for? If you were expecting the A7 II to be a revolutionary update, we understand if it feels underwhelming. On the outside, not much appears to have changed. But while it doesn't distance itself from its predec...
Full-frame image quality in a compact body, Rock-steady five-axis stabilization, XAVC-S video format
Slow burst modes not ideal for action, No built-in flash
We highly recommend the Sony A7 Mark II. While you can now get a great deal on the original model and get equally pleasing photos, it is worth spending that extra $400 for better video capture and the terrific five-axis stabilization system. The newer mo...
Abstract: Sony caused a major stir in the photographic world when it introduced the 24Mp Alpha 7 and 36Mp Alpha 7R because they were the first compact system cameras to have full-frame sensors. This is something that has still yet to be done by any other manufactur...

Small size yet delivers big on full-frame image quality, Excellent electronic viewfinder quality, Tilt-angle LCD, 5-axis image stabilisation on board whatever lens you're using, Affordable entry into full-frame
Poor battery life, Limited FE E-mount lenses (and many of the zooms aren't up to much), Autofocus system not comparable to an advanced DSLR, No pinpoint AF can see precision slip, No touchscreen
Big quality from small scale: that's what the Sony A7 II represents to us. And having used the A7 II for three weeks we've snapped some ace shots from this impressive little camera.Not that we'd call it a perfect camera, though, despite its sensor-based 5...
Becomes the first full-frame CSC to feature 5-axis in-camera image stabilisation, Inherits the excellent OLED electronic viewfinder from the Alpha 7, Redesigned handgrip and control layout enhances operation and handling
Loud shutter with no dampening or silent shooting mode available, Control wheel at the rear is rather small and fiddly to use, Movie-record button could be better positioned for videographers
Potential buyers of the A7 II fall into two camps – those who may already own an A7 and those who might be tempted by investing in a smaller and lighter system. Based on the fact that users of a mint condition A7 will only get around £570 cash if they tra...

Abstract: With a smartphone in your pocket, everyone is a photographer. The latest iPhone, Galaxy, and Pixel handsets capture images that turn heads and rack up social media likes, but there's a limit to what they can do. If you're interested in trying new photo te...
