  • While its good that the A7 III has so many customisation options
  • Some of them are confusing. And although Sony has made improvements
  • The extensive menu could still be better organised
  • I'm expecting these issues to be addressed by the Sony A7 IV
  • 24MP full-frame BSI sensor
  • 10fps with tracking

  • Fast 10 fps shooting
  • Excellent autofocus
  • Sharpest 4K video of any Sony full-frame camera
  • Double the battery life of the last model

The editors didn't like

  • PSMS kind of a gimmick
  • Fewer AF points than the A9 and A7 III
  • 36-page menu system needs to be simplified (and touch support!)
  • This is probably a camera for the person just getting into mirrorless options
  • But in 2018 folks should've been on the boat already
  • I genuinely think the Sony A7 III is a fantastic camera. Sony describes it as their “basic” option. For that
  • I understand
  • Color rendering on skin tone on the yellow end
  • 24.2 megapixels might leave something to be desired
  • Dynamic range is excellent
  • But not amazing
  • Minimal use of the screen's touch-sensitivity
  • Tilting rather than vari-angle screen
  • Complex menu
  • Screen not true vari-angle
  • Only one card slot is UHS-II
  • No in-body flash
  • Shooting buffer must clear to start video
  • Dense menu system
  • Omits PC sync socket
  • Imbalance with larger lenses
  • No drive or focus mode dials
  • Good
  • Rather than great
  • Burst shooting buffer
  • Not especially portable
  • Menu system is difficult to navigate
  • Electronic Viewfinder Subject to Tearing
  • Only One Card Slot Supports UHS-II Cards
  • LCD touchscreen functionality limited to focusing
  • Subpar weather sealing around accessory ports
  • Only one of the two memory card slots supports the faster SD UHS-II cards
  • Those that need more resolution for detailed scenes or large prints
  • Those that need ultimate build quality for harsh shooting conditions
  • EVF and viewfinder not quite as good as rivals
  • Two SD card slots but only one is high-speed UHS-II
  • Not as weather-resistant as the Fujifilm's X-H1
  • No 10-bit video output like Panasonic's GH5s

  • Abstract:  There's never been a better time to make the jump to a full-frame digital camera. Over the past few years, models with 24-by-36mm image sensors-the same dimensions as a frame of 35mm film-have become more and more affordable. And while the smaller APS-C s...

  • Abstract:  If you're feeling limited by what your point-and-shoot can do, there are plenty of reasons to consider an interchangeable lens camera (ILC), whether it be a traditional DSLR or a more modern mirrorless model. Compared with your phone or point-and-shoot, t...

  • Abstract:  Buying a digital camera is a very different experience than it was a few years ago. Smartphone cameras keep getting better, so there are a lot fewer buyers out there for budget pocket shooters. And because of that, there aren't that many good, inexpensive...

  • Abstract:  Best camera. It is somewhat disingenuous for anyone to give a camera this tag. Because in real world, there are no "best" cameras. There are only best cameras for a particular situation, and even then a lot depends on how you opt to use that camera and wi...

  • Abstract:  I was at wedding recently with the usual bunch of photographers trying their best to take away the view for the rest of the guests. However, what struck me more was how many of them were using Sony Alpha cameras this time. A few years back there would hav...

  • Good battery life, Compact and well-built, High-quality stills with good dynamic range, 4K video support, Quick autofocusing
  • Low EVF resolution, Limited use of touchscreen,
  • The Sony A7 III is a great entry point into the company's full-frame range of cameras. If you're an enthusiast or even a professional looking for a full-frame camera and want something portable, then mirrorless is the way to go. The A7 III is a huge step...

  • 24-megapixel full frame sensor is enough for 2020, High ISO performance is rather impressive, Autofocus on par with flagship cameras, Eye AF performs remarkably well almost all the time, Battery life much improved from previous generation, Outstanding bur
  • Button layout is great, but the flat design makes it hard to use with gloves, Port covers are flimsy and cheap-feeling, Single UHS-II slot instead of two shows that Sony is reserving it for next generation, Viewfinder can be a bit further out so I do not
  • Sony's A7 III had been in the market for 2 years now and, while no longer carrying the latest camera technology, has proven itself to be a great starting camera if you are looking to buy into a new system or you are interested in an excellent full frame m...
