Digitalcameraworld tested the A7IV and concluded:
Don’t think of the A7 IV as Sony’s new ‘entry level’ full frame mirrorless camera. It’s both too powerful, too complex and, yes, too expensive for that. It’s more like a mini-A1 that’s terrifyingly good at everything but less than half the price. Stills photographers can revel in its 33MP resolution and incredible burst mode, while videographers get a camera that leaves the previous A7 III far behind.
Dpreview answered the question: “Should you upgrade? New Sony a7 IV vs a7 III”
Ultimately, then, it all comes down to money. The a7 IV is a better camera than the a7 III in just about every respect. Not just its performance but also in terms of everyday usability. If you’re in the market for a new E-mount camera and you plan to keep it for a couple of years, we believe the additional cost, spread out across those years, is worth it for a camera that’s just that bit nicer to work with, in addition to the specific feature upgrades it gets.
And this is Tonys take on the A7IV:
An overview article of all the new lenses we got in 2021 can be read on Explora (Click here). I hope next year we will get even more new lenses…
Sony Japan announced the production halt of some Alpha cameras. As usual blame the worldwide chip shortage for that!
