Mathew Malwitz (click here) shared his thoughts on the Sony A7V:
The A7V shapes up to be quite the worthy successor to an already stellar camera. While there are times when upgrading from one model to the next doesn’t always make sense. This is one of those occasions where I’d bet an upgrade is well worth it, no matter the genre of photography you pursue. There’s truly a feature to benefit nearly all use-cases.
Sports and wildlife shooters will undoubtably love the faster frame rate and improved subject detection, whereas landscape and concert shooters will appreciate the tiltability of the rear LCD. Even wedding and event shooters can make use of both features and so much more in an environment where every shot counts and there are second chances.
For those looking to enter the Sony ecosystem with a solid, versatile full-frame option, the A7 V may seem overkill. Yes, it’s the latest and greatest, but the A7 IV is still available and at a decent price now that it has been “replaced.” You can even still buy a new A7 III for an even steeper discount if you choose. Though my stance remains the same. If you can justify it, go for the Sony A7 V . To learn more about this camera, check out the detailed product page below.
