Sony A7IV - Hands-on Review / Side by Side Comparison to the A7iii
I'm sharing my experiences and first impressions after using the A7IV for a couple of days and this is my hands-on review of the camera. There have been some significant updates that I'm excited to share with you. I'm also doing a side-by-side comparison to the A7iii.
Is the A7IV the perfect successor to the A7iii?
*NOTE*
I just realised I didn't talk about battery life in the video so here's how I experienced it:
Sony claims a reduced battery-life of 15% in stills-mode. And I confirm that's the case - Since it's the same NP-FZ100 batteries but updated features (such as the processor etc) and higher megapixels. For the shooting I did with some 4K 10bit clips, and some photography. I needed to bring an extra battery for a day out. It would be nice to see an update in battery life, but having he same type of batteries for all cameras in the bag, is worth the reduced battery life in the A7IV imo.
