Just got the camera the other day, and i must say from just playing with it for a few days it's a absolutely great camera. Filled with great features for both cinematic and still photography. This camera will for sure force Canon and Nikon to up their game.
| Key Stats: | ||

| Sensor | 24MP 35mm Fullframe Exmor R CMOS | |
| Battery life | Rated at aprox 660 stills | |
| Iso Range | 50-204800 | |
| Stils per secound | 10 fps | |
| Film capabilities | 4K 24 fps 60-100 Mb/s , 1080p 24-120 fps 16-100 Mb/s | |
| Focus points | 693 points |
The first thing i can say about this camera is that it feels great in my hands. An ergonomic build with a deep groove for a tight grip make it an ease to handle. On the back it has a 2.95 inch touch screen which can be tilted out to help you to take photos in awkward positions. To set your focus area you could use the touch screen and easily by taping the spot you want to focus on, or by using the joystick to the right of the screen. If you wish to use the viewfinder it has a 2.6 million dots 1.3 OLED screen, which is a lifesaver if you are out in the sun and want to check if you got all your pictures in focus.
The lense i got with this camera is the 24-70mm f/2.8 FE GM that i will review another time.
Ps: Here are some sample photos from the camera that i quickly optimized in adobe lightroom. (Size reduced for upload)

I have been using sony for a long time. really excellent quality.
Thats nice to hear, for me this was the perfect camera option.
Ughhhhh wanting to have that camera for so long.... Actually, I didnt own one camera in my entire life.. So lucky to have that camera @thestig.... Also liking that lit shots that you posted above...just WOW
Thank you so much! If you want an all round great camera with amazing features for film and still pictures the Sony A7III got the best of both worlds.
All pictures are outstanding..But the picture with leg is the best one...i rather say great one. And i have really no knowledge about Camera but it seems good.
Thank you for the positive comment! I still have lots to learn in photography but it's fun to see the work improve day by day.
Congrats on your new camera π My heart is aching for one of these so badly. Probably the best valued full frame option by far in 2018. Jeez I want one π«
Edit - And just noticed you're a dronie ...A7 iii + drones and you've got my follow. What are you flying btw?
Thank you @steemmeupscotty! Hahah jee at this time best value for sure π Yes i am a dronie! got a phantom 4 pro with me at all time π So keep your eyes open drone content is coming π
Nice! I've a Mavic Pro .. haven't posted any drone shots yet on steemit but will be for sure. Btw .. there's a drone photo contest I came across yesterday. Here's the link https://steemit.com/theflyingphotographer/@hadimemories/the-flying-photographer-contest-photo-and-video-drone-week-5-theme-building#@steemmeupscotty/re-hadimemories-re-steemmeupscotty-re-hadimemories-the-flying-photographer-contest-photo-and-video-drone-week-5-theme-building-20180427t115906782z
The Stig's definitely got some Top Gear ;)
Sweet the mavic pro is such a handy size for a drone, with the phantom 4 i always need a backpack for dragging it around.. Hahah 10/10 great pun sir! π
Yup - It's a pretty new purchase and I'm getting such a kick out of exploring its potential, and you're right..it's such a handy size. No regrets so far :)
Resolution looks fantastic. Thanks for the quick review! I'll go play with one as well now.
Thank you! You do thatπ
The pics look great for sure, I'm searching for a new camera myself. My old Nikon D300s is about to break down. So your review is a great help. But first I have to save the money for it ...
Thank you! I upgraded from my old canon 400d, so i think you would get the same great experience as me.
the Japanese are just the best for building cameras
That is for sure π
very beautiful photos, keep on working
Thank you! i will.
awesome post
Thanks! π
Hello, @thestig. I'm really impressed with the image quality of your camera. Those last 2 pics say a lot. Nice compositions. But really, the ISO Range of it is out of the charts! Incredible!
Thank you sir! Yeah the iso is amazing up to 12500 and still quite good quality. Gonna test it some more in low lights and maybe do a post about it π
Glad I ran into this post. How much is the camera going for in the U.S.?
Se ve que tomas las fotos espectacular π y es hermosaaaa
Thanks @coquiunlimited! In the US you can get the camera body for $2000, and be sure to check ebay/ amazon for a good price on lenses π
really cool bro !!! the device specification is really at the god level
i want to have this device soon after having money from steemit LOL
Thanks bro! That is something i would 100% recommend you to do, the quality is soo worth it!
Recuerda que no es la cΓ‘mara quien tiene la particular visiΓ³n creativa, es tu ojo, sensibilidad y capacidad para realizar la mejor fotografΓa posible. Hace unos aΓ±os, estuve en un museo donde un fotΓ³grafo NorteΓ‘mericano, realizaba una exposiciΓ³n con una cΓ‘mara Diana, de material plΓ‘stico. Me gustaron tus fotografΓas @thestig y la cΓ‘mara tambiΓ©n. Un abrazo.
Muchas gracias @billo, muy apreciado!
My dream camera πππ
Thank you @appleskie π can absolutely recommend it!
The photos are so sharp. Your camera can capture a lot of details. Congratulation for your new camera, Sony AIII. I wish I had one.
Thank you so much for that, try to set off a little money monthly and all of the sudden you can get one as well π
Hi @thestig π·
As a huge fan of Sony mirrorless 7 line cameras I was waiting for the article like this on steemit. β¨οΈ Your article are great and very interesting with lot of information about this fantastic camera. The photos from camera are great and the last photo with little tree has beautiful smooth bokeh. I reed lot of review and seems like the best full frame camera on the market so far. I plan to buy a7II which is the previous model as a good value for money compromise, but in the future I would definitely like to have Sony a7 mark III too, when the prices drop a little. I looking for more posts about this camera and more quality photos. ππ»
See you soon...
Thank you so much for your comment @romanriviera! π Got to love the sony mirrorless cameras. I see you can get the a7II for an amazing price these days, quality for the price is amazing. And with Sigma soon releasing 9 art lenses native for Sony E-mount we are starting to get quite a good selection of lenses to choose from.
Planing to continue with more post like this one, so keep your eyes open π
It is so smooth <3
Thank you! π
No worries. You deserve it! :)
Buena cΓ‘mara @thestig, pero mejor tu ojo fotogrΓ‘fico, recordando siempre que la misma, es una extensiΓ³n del ojo. Me agradaron las imΓ‘genes expuestas a travΓ©s de tu nuevo juguete. Mil felicitaciones y te estarΓ© siguiendo con mucha atenciΓ³n.
π
Thank you! I like post it
Thank you for the positive comment!
Great images, the only thing I'll say is that the pics of the camera itself are too dark for me to really see it
Thanks for the comment. that i will keep in mind for my next post, all feedback is much appreciated!π
