What do you think about the "one NEW Major Feature"???

[youuuuuuuuuuutube]

That screen is the best of both worlds. Game changer.

[kfloyd]

A7RIV owner here… thank you for this, I truly appreciate it. I do t do much sports photography, but this focus system is going to be clutch for weddings when your subject is working through the crowd. Keep up the great reviews!

[JsGarage]

Was wondering when the rear screens would work this way. Seems the best solution overall.

[Remmerboy]

finally a screen screen that can rotate the way i wanted. best of both world (old and new)

[ladmanstudiosphotography]

I'm here for the "Train detection" lol.

[tdawg]

I’m glad he mentioned focus bracketing. I’ve been looking at the info on this camera for a while and no one mentioned it. The fact that it’s in body in a Sony now is actually a HUGE deal

[Mike-fsbv]

For a non Sports camera it did an outstanding job of tracking and keeping on the subjects.

[jmackultra]

The Sony A7RIV was the first full-frame Sony camera that didn't have that 30-minute video recording limit.

[amandawilley]

Hi. First I Love your videos thank you.
I would really love to see a setup video for those of us just getting into the mirror less camera world and starting with this camera, it’s packed with such a large menu and I’m new to Sony.
Thank you

Things are looking good with this tech for the a9 III.. stick that a7IV’s 33mp sensor but the crazy fast readout stacked version in it.. gold

[christianisaacjones]

Sounds like a killer camera. Seeming more video & photo centric than we all thought. Also 7fps bursts aren’t very fast. I’m surprised.

[jpmcgreg]

I have an a7iv and use it primarily for video and I want to get into photography as a business. Just trying to get others input if it would be worth the upgrade.

[gurugamer]

Is the autofocus a lot better than A7RIV?

[MannyG]

As a Birder Photographer... it make sense for the upgrade from the A7RIV. Thank you.

[shanemartinphoto]

Coming from having the A7iii since to released, I can't wait to get my hands on this. I shoot Real Estate and architecture.

[Hsukhaybir]

As A7R IV owner and stills shooter I’m disappointed ..

Sony focused on improving feature thats not the first priority for stills shooters and that’s what the R series for!

As you mentioned camera can lock on in everything I don’t need these silly train and cars options as much as I need better ISO performance in low light ..

I didn’t want to see too much effort in enhancing videos which I’m not going to use more often over enhancing sensor for stills and action in second place, again this is R not S .. it’s for landscapes, wild life, Astro, which all Depends In sensor performance for stills.

They could have improved image quality a lot better by using stacked sensor that will give me much better ISO and at least 15FPS as an actual upgrade to the sensor performance since resolution is not changed !

Unless Sony is intentionally planing to shove up video capabilities over stills in every camera since there’s a growing demand for video as one of their officials says .. I don’t understand this upgrade,

and it’s just a camera with better AF for me.

[vads]

For sports Sony A1 30fps and stacked sensor is still king. But that new screen is cool for vertically angled photos as well as standard horizontal angles, that you don't have to look from the side like the older flip outs.

[XxCrazZyNooBxX]

I think it's finally time to upgrade, had my a7iii since release and switched to only photography a while back. This camera seems to be perfect for me

Great video jared. Waiting for the comparison video with R5
