You can’t have enough of A7-A7r reviews? So here comes the next roundup :)

PocketLint (Click here) posted the full Sony A7 review.

The Sony Alpha A7 is a mini marvel with a big point of interest: that full-frame sensor. It’s not perfect, though, but most of the shortcomings we can forgive because each time we go and look at the images again they make us smile.

SLR Lounge (Click here) posted the extensive A7r review:

Are the a7 and A7R enough to shake up the industry? I believe so. There is no doubt that because Sony was the first to come out with a mainstream full-frame mirrorless camera, Canon and Nikon has been caught sleeping and has to now play catch up. Even the Nikon DF does not have the same impact as the a7/A7R because of its size, inclusion of the mirror box, and most notably, the price.

Johnnie Behiri reports:

I am happy to report that when experimenting with the camera I could not get it to “overheat”. Please understand that experimenting was not done in a very hot outdoor location (snowing out here). What I did was letting the camera to work in a hot room for 2 hours (starting recording again as it got to the 30 min limit) and no problem at all!
