Sony Alpha A7 III
Not too big, but not too small. It's just right! The Sony Alpha 7 III combines ease-of-use with a range of the latest features you expect in a modern camera.
A More Than Capable Compact
The images coming out of this compact camera punch well above their weight in terms of quality. They're the sort of images you'd expect from a full-frame camera and are made possible thanks to Sony's newly developed back-illuminated image sensor and evolved image processing system.
Instant recall
My Menu offers instant recall of your favourite settings, so you can snap in a flash without missing a thing. Simply create and customize an optimal menu based around your preferences and be ready to shoot in no time.
Better Battery Power
When you're out and about capturing one great image after another, battery longevity is crucial. The good news is that the A7 III can use an NP-FZ100 battery, which gives you more than two times the capacity of a NP-FW50 battery. This allows you to shoot up to approximately 710 photos with one full charge.
Built For Speed
Another surprising feature of this compact camera is its speed: the Sony Alpha 7 III offers high-speed continuous shooting of up to 10 fps (frames per second).
Exceptional 4K Video
This is the video age, where the moving image is just as important as the still photograph. Yet again, the A7 III over-delivers with 4K video recording over the full width of the sensor. No more cropped video! What you get is video of exceptional clarity, colour and detail.
A newer model Sony Alpha A7 IV was released in October 2021.

About 10 days ago I switched to Sony FE system after 14 years with Canon cameras (Powershot A80, EOS 300D, 400D, 5D, 6D), and it seems that Ia€?m not going back. I spent almost half of my life shooting Canon, but after release of EOS 5D MkIV and EOS 6D MkII, I saw that these are not the cameras I...
Sony a7 III review
The A7 III manages to pull off a lot of technology and desirability in a body which costs less than £2000 - an excellent price point for dedicated enthusiasts. While when the A7 range came out there wasn’t much in the way of a lens selection to work with, there’s now over 25 available, with yet more from third party manufacturers. Short of super specialist optics, there’s pretty much something to suit everyone. Here we’ve got a fantastic all-rounder which is well-suited to a bunch of different shooting scenarios. It copes well with landscapes, portraits, and even a little bit of sports shooting. The camera design is probably not the prettiest thing we’ve ever seen, but it handles fairly well for the small size, and that little bit of weight reduction may be a welcome relief for many. This could well be the camera to really kill off “enthusiast” level full-frame DSLRs altogether - or at least seriously injure the beast. We’ll be waiting with baited breath over the next few months to see if old hands Nikon and Canon pull their finger out and deliver their long-rumoured full-frame mirrorless models: they’ve certainly got a lot to live up to.- Incredible value
- Excellent image quality
- Good for video
- Speedy autofocus and tracking
- Small physical buttons
- Battery life could be improved

Sony A7 Mark III Camera Body ILCE7M3B review
Sony's most affordable full-frame camera is certainly nothing to scorn at.- Class-leading picture quality, enhanced usability, sharp 4K-video, and fast shooting rate and focus response.
- Low resolution viewfinder and display, moderate weather proofing, and only one UHS-II slot.
Sony Alpha 7 III review: The best mirrorless under £2,000
Sony's A7 series has been around for over four years and, since the release of the original A7 and A7R at the start of 2014, the series has improved and expanded to help make Sony a major force in the market.- Compact size
- Good video capabilities
- Well-rounded set of features
- No top-plate info LCD
- Limited touchscreen facility
- Electronic finder could be better
Wonderful
Great ergonomics if you're used to Sony. Amazing IBIS, e.g. 1/8 s handheld in a dark forest. Sadly, a Metabones adapter broke a contact pin in the camera so I had to return it.
Fantastic! And I am a tough judge. Made me consider abandoning my Fuji system with 11 lenses... The only thing is it's ridiculously configurable, so you need to spend time to create your own 'My menu', otherwise you can never find anything.
Wonderful Camera
First mirrorless camera. Great built quality, great functionalities. Great all purpose camera!
BEAST is an understatement
I've been shooting with Sony for a while. I was shooting with eh a7sii and it was amazing autofocus was not the best but I shot some killer shoots on it like Post Malone, Newsboys, corporate videos and many weddings but the A7III is awesome no crop in 120 frames amazing battery life (killed 2...
