Pros and cons

According to our mirrorless camera expert

  • Thanks to the maximum aperture of f/1.8, you can easily create a background blur.
  • The camera automatically focuses on the eyes of people, animals, and birds with the real-time tracking and Eye autofocus.
  • You can record in 4K resolution at 60fps, so you get sharp and smooth videos.
  • A memory card isn't included.

Description

The Sony A7 IV + FE 50mm f/1.8is a professional mirrorless camera with a portrait lens for photographers and videographers. The 50mm prime lens is light-sensitive thanks to the large aperture of f/1.8. This allows you to take sharp photos in dark locations. You can also create a soft background blur. That's useful for portrait photography, because you draw attention to your model. With the backlit 33-megapixel full-frame image sensor of the A7 IV, you can take clear photos and videos in dark surroundings. Capture an atmospheric sunset, for example. The smart autofocus system recognizes the eyes of people and animals. When they move, it keeps them in focus. Thanks to the fast buffer, you can take photos at 10 frames per second. You don't miss any action during a sports match, for example.

Lens

The FE 50mm f/1.8 is a compact, light-sensitive lens. Thanks to the light weight of 186g, you can easily take it with you for a day. You can use it for portraits and product and landscape photos.

Image stabilization

The 5-axis image stabilization of the A7 IV reduces motion blur up to 5.5 stops. If you're photographing by hand, you can take sharp photos with slower shutter speeds. That way, you capture a city at dusk. In the Active mode, the camera stabilizes your videos and photos even more and also crops the image. You use this mode when you like to record sports footage, for example.

Video

With the A7 IV, you can record sharp and smooth videos in 4K at 60 frames per second. If you want to take slow-motion or sped-up recordings, you can use the Slow & Quick mode. The camera edits the footage right away. For a larger dynamic range, record in the 10-bit 4:2:2 S-CINETONE/S-LOG3 file format. In post-editing, you have full control over the lighting and colors of the footage. As a streamer, you can stream your footage with the livestream function. That way, you can share a special moment with your followers right away.

Best hybrid camera on the market!

  • Best hybrid camera on the market!
  • Unprecedented autofocus
  • Good lowlight options
  • 4K 50FPS in crop modes only

What a beast of a camera this is, for both my photography and video work. Before this I had the Sony A7iii, which was already a great camera. This one has a better grip, higher megapixel sensor, and 10-bit video (this is what makes the difference for me). Keep them coming Sony!

Hybrid topper for the serious photo and videographer

  • The autofocus
  • The overall quality of the photos and videos
  • The speed (as long as you don't use the camera for sports photography)
  • You would rather see such devices a 1000 euros cheaper, but the increased prices are everywhere. It is what it is.

I really needed an upgrade for video, while I still have a long way to go in photography. As far as photography is concerned, it is actually still an overkill for me at the moment to own a camera of this level. Still opted for a camera from this class and was deeply impressed from the first moment. As far as videography is concerned it does exactly what I want and need (without overheating and time limits but unfortunately with a crop at 4k50) and in the field of photography the possibilities to expand my knowledge and skills with this camera are almost unlimited. Because I switched from Canon to Sony, everything is actually new, but the ease of use is excellent. It is advisable to really go through all the settings, whether or not "accompanied" by a YouTube video of someone who explains it for you, so that you do not have to figure everything out yourself. I find it useful. Soon I will be going to the national parks in the US and I have no doubt that this full frame beast will give me much nicer shots (and videos anyway) than the devices that have come with me on previous trips. Thanks to this camera, I'm secretly looking forward to the upcoming trips even more.

Good photo camera but less for video

  • Very good image quality
  • Very good autofocus
  • focus mapping
  • Less suitable for professional video use

Switched to the cinemaline after using it for a little over 1 year for mainly video. Nothing but praise for the image quality. Unfortunately less enthusiastic in the audio field. As soon as you plug in a headphone, the screen is extremely limited when tilting because the plug is in the way. The optional XLR unit regularly malfunctions (Accessory not supported). HDMI is also not always free of interference. After 1 year, the camera is returned to Sony because the headphone plug has stopped working. In short, do you occasionally make a video? That's fine. Are you going to use it for serious filming? Then choose something from the cinema line.
