A better frame-by-frame camera for its price, but not without flaws. The first thing to start with is the price. You get a full-frame camera for matrix stabilization. Bright electronic viewfinder. Many customizable settings. The ability to connect any vintage lens through adapters. Fairly accurate autofocus, with face and eye focus function, but only with a separately programmed button and doesn't work with every lens. Good build quality and materials, possibility of charging from a power bank, no need to remove the battery. Lightweight body, good microphone quality when recording video. Relatively inexpensive accessories and a wide selection. There is the possibility of control through a smartphone. The screen is not touch-sensitive, the autofocus is weak when recording video, focusing on the eyes works so well and then only primus frame-by-frame. A MUCH weak battery, with large zooms and including a stub up to 200 fps, with manual ones and without a stub and in the mode of use - up to 500 fps. The old zastosunok for smartphones is rather buggy. Messy settings menu. Likewise, the camera loves to think, especially when vmikannі and vmikannі. Humbling shutter. After a long time it is charged with a complete charger. ![]() |
A high-end and cutting-edge mirrorless camera or, as it is also called, the “DSLR killer” from Sony. Before this camera, I didn’t even know that full-frame matrices were put on mirrorless cameras. All the photos taken with this camera can be divided into three categories: good, excellent, and magnificent. After all, a full-frame sensor combined with a fast processor and good firmware are capable of a lot. The advanced five-axis matrix stabilization system together with an optically stabilized lens provide a noticeably effective result. The quality of the combined work of the two stabilizers is especially evident when shooting video from a moving platform. By the way, the video quality is superb. Full 1080 at 60p will satisfy even the most discerning amateur, and this is not only due to the sensor and optics but also thanks to Sony's new XAVC-S codec with a bitrate of up to 50 Mbps and expanded color depth. Such video and burst shooting in RAW require a fast memory card. IMHO, for all possible situations, a speed of at least 100-150 Mbps is needed. I would call the rear three-inch display one of the best in its class, but it only swivels in one plane. However, for 98% of situations, this is sufficient. The electronic viewfinder is also good. Limited range of compatible optics. I shoot with an FE 28-70mm F3.5-5.6 OSS. Very loud shutter. You can't do discreet shooting with such a sound; everyone immediately notices and pays attention. No built-in flash. They could have at least installed a poor one. The battery could be more capacious. |

All three second versions of Sony's full-frame mirrorless series are pulling to the role of flagships: the A7 II, A7R II and A7S II models. The most affordable option among this trio is the first model.
Double stabilization
The Sony A7 II was the debut full-frame camera equipped with a 5-axis matrix image stabilizer(up-down, right-left, along its own axis). Only cameras of the same series can compete with the model in this regard. The stub allows you to win up to 4-5 steps of exposure. Those. getting blur in the image when shooting at slow shutter speeds with hands has become more difficult. Plus, stabilization by means of optics has not gone anywhere (if there is a built-in stabilizer on board). In fact, we are dealing with dual image stabilization — both through the matrix and through the lens.
compactness
Since the Sony Alpha A7 II is a mirrorless camera, it is almost twice as light as its mirror counterparts. Accordingly, its dimensions are smaller. But not to the detriment of ergonomics — the controls on the "carcass" of the camera are thoughtfully and sensibly. Convenience in the process of filming adds an inclined screen, which is easy to sight from the lower and upper angles. It is non-touch, so you will have to set the focus point using the keys. By the way, the model is equipped with 4D autofocus with 117 phase focus sensors located directly on the matrix. The focus system does not smear even in the dark.
Optics park
In Sony Alpha systems, only one thing upsets — an undeveloped fleet of optics. Naturally, this is a matter of time and in the near future the variety of lenses will grow. So far, you have to be content with what you have, or use the optics of third-party systems installed through an adapter. A plus in this state of affairs still exists: even the oldest manual lens will be stabilized.
Balance
The camera will become a faithful companion for a landscape painter or a lover of shooting architecture. For reporting purposes, it is less suitable — this is not facilitated by the overall responsiveness and short duration of operation on a single battery charge. Also, the model is one of the most balanced options on the market in terms of price-quality ratio.
