The Sony Alpha 7 is a fast-shooting, full-frame mirrorless camera that's capable of capturing some impressive images, but overall, we prefer its sibling, the 7R....
Full-frame sensors in small bodies, Superb stills and videos, Excellent OLED EVF, Hybrid autofocus system
No built-in flash, Would love faster burst modes but you can't have everything, Battery could be stronger, Makes noises
If you can afford – or find – either of these cameras, buy one. Year 2013 isn't over yet but the Sony Alpha A7 and A7R are prime candidates for DT's Cameras of The Year award. In fact, barring the release of a spectacular model from the majors in Decemb...
Impressive level of customisation, Compact size, Competitive price tag, Good handling
General burst mode performance poor, Currently a limited range of lenses, So-so kit lens
The Sony Alpha 7 is a very impressive camera that delivers the goods when it comes to image quality. There are certainly issues when it comes to continuous focusing, and the standard kit lens isn't anything to write home about, but on the whole it earns o...

Affordable, small size, full-frame image quality is great with prime lens attached, excellent electronic viewfinder quality, tilt-angle LCD, button customisation, focus peaking for manual focus
Poor battery life, 28-70mm kit lens not great, full FE lens system yet to materialise, AF-C not comparable to DSLR, no pinpoint AF can mean questionable accuracy
The Sony Alpha A7 is a mini marvel with a big point of interest: that full-frame sensor. At £1,299 for the body only, this is as affordable as large-sensor snapping can get, and it could open up a whole new set of interest from more casual photograp...

Abstract: The NEX is dead. That's right, the new Sony Alpha A7 compact system camera represents Sony's decision to push the Alpha brand forward. And it does so in style. The key feature of the A7 is that it has a full-frame sensor yet compact body, the likes of wh...
Abstract: Introduction The compact system camera market is still relatively new in the camera world, but it's still able to produce new cameras which shake up the system just a little bit. Sony is no stranger to innovation, with its seemingly constant desire to be ...

Abstract: The full-frame camera has been synonymous with the most high-end DSLRs-the biggest, the priciest. Not anymore. A new breed of camera that's light on its feet but packs the best image quality outside of pro-grade gear is here, and it starts with Sony's new...

Excellent picture quality, compact for a fullframe camera, fiveaxis image stabilisation works well
Autofocus a little slow in low light, shutter sound is pretty loud
The A7 II is an evolutionary update to the A7. It doesn’t offer anything that would really make it worth upgrading to if you already own an A7. However, if you’re looking for a full-frame mirrorless then there’s actually no other choice except for the A7 II an...
