    Buy recommendation!

    I have had the camera for a fortnight now and am very satisfied. I bought the cam mainly for filming and have already been able to take great pictures. I use the camera together with the Zhiyun Crane - it makes fantastic cinematic movies!

    If the camera is delivered in pristine condition, which does not seem to be a given, it is a very good compromise between weight and performance.

    I am on the road a lot. As a passionate photographer, I chose this camera because it is a good compromise between weight and performance. However, I am very disappointed with the build quality. The lens could not be fine-tuned and was replaced 4 weeks after I sent it in. But the camera itself also has a fault. The pictures are not sharp. I then tested with a tripod, tape measure, smallest focus point and open aperture. The autofocus focuses about 80 cm in front of the object. That is very annoying. Interestingly, this could be compensated on the camera side for A-mount lenses, but this function is inactive for the original E-mount lenses. Digitec has so far been very unwilling to exchange the camera. That means sending it in again and waiting 4 weeks. In future, I will take a closer look at other shops that may look less nice but offer better service.

    Very good, I recommend.

    I bought it for more than 1'299 CHF (price in July 2019), but this camera was well worth it before. This camera is the perfect mix in the Sony Alpha for the beginning in photography and good quality video creation. Good product at a good price. Attention: detail but does not contain a jack port for headphones when recording video.
