Sony Alpha a7 IV 2025
The 33MP full-frame sensor and 759-point autofocus system capture crisp stills at 10fps bursts with a 680-shot battery. 10-bit 4K 60fps video and 5-stop in-body stabilization make it a flexible hybrid tool. This camera best suits photographers and videographers needing a capable all-rounder, though vloggers will be hindered by the fixed screen and 4146g body.
