Sony A7III vs A7IV Real World Comparison

Hey everyone! I hope you all enjoy today's video comparing the Sony A7III vs A7IV. This is an overview comparison taking a look at a few of the key differences between both cameras when it comes to photography and video. Let me know in the comments what you want to see for a portrait photography comparison which I want to film soon! I think it will be interesting to take a look at more side by side photos with some different lenses and in different lighting situations too.

Julia's goofy autofocus tests should become mandatory manufacturers marketing material 👍📸

Is it me or do skin tones look nicer with the III?

[Seekingsophia]

I wish all camera reviews were as good as this. Incredible.

Nice review... but staying with my a7iii, it works for what I need it for and a lot more, just happy with it... :)

You have incredible intelligence; there aren't many videos on YouTube that get right to the point. You come off as very serious and competent in the way you present the material. I'm really impressed by your effort. I appreciate it.

Thanks for a nice review as always. Personally, A7IV comes with a higher price tag and many more function upgrades that are unnecessary for me. So, for enhancing my photography, that is an easy decision for me to buy another new G-Master lens instead.

what I really like about your videos is that you are really down to earth... good luck

Thanks for the overview! At some point I'd love to upgrade my A7iii to the A7iv as a B-Cam to my FX3, but since I use the A7iii for mainly photography and FX3 mainly for video, I'm good for now. Hugely helpful to see that both are great, but it's not the night and day difference for stills that something like the A7Siii was for video compared to the A7Sii. An upgrade to be sure, but far from an immediate need to stay competitive.

Wow, the reviewer and model are one and the same. Don't see that every day. :) Very nicely done and practical review that gets to the basics quickly. The side by side approach is very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you so much for all your work Julia. I am with Sony now for my professionnal work. Cheers from France. Julien.

I have upgraded from a6500 to a7iv. For landscape the a7iii is good enough. I also do bird photography, the bird AF and tracking is a huge improvement. And 33 mp give me more room to crop.

Great, easy to get comparison, Julia. I would love you to do a comparison between the A7iv and the A7C in the same vein.

One of the reasons switching from DSLR to mirrorless is size and weight. However as time progresses mirrorless gets bigger and bigger in the name of “better grip”. It’s no longer smaller than DSLR now.

I was wondering about those two models, but I recently ended up buying an A7C which I've been very happy with. I think the camera will serve me for many years to come.

This video is so helpful..it is a complete walk through of both cameras..great job

[RBeltranTV]

I have a sony a7Iv seens it came out. I sold my 7iii. I am struggling on have another body to be my main or B cam for photos only. Recently i get the fx3 for main video. And the 7iv now is a b cam for video. But now, i want or a 7iii again or thinking on going to 7riii to be my main on photo. HELP!!!

[MollyFitzBrown]

Great comparison :) I'm loving the a7iv so much!

[fotografieravhanna]

Thanks for the review! I would love to upgrade to A7IV soon as I’m looking to include more video in my work 😄

[MedievalAI]

Just bought a sony a7III and the 28-70. I have upgraded from the canon t7 so as you know a very big difference. I'm so excited to get this camera. For a person who mainly does bird photography I'm saving up for the 200-300 and then maybe in the future cause it's super expensive the sigma 200-600

Nice comparison :) I‘m still happy with my A7III, but the A7IV is amazing 😍👌🏽
