Title: This is the camera I've been waiting for!
Review: I currently own 2 A7RIII's that I've used professionally for a few years. I was looking to upgrade and checked out the A1 and others in the Sony line. I didn't feel the A1 really fit my needs, or budget, so I waited. I'm glad I did because I love everything about this model.Mainly a portrait and wedding photographer, I wanted to stay with the R line for the resolution capabilities and really didn't need 20 fps or any crazy video capabilities. The A7R5 has a 61 MP sensor that delivers amazing detail in images. I often crop my images and really benefit from the sensor size. Coupled with any G-Master lens, this camera delivers sharp images. I shoot mainly with the 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.2, the 100mm 2.8 (5.6), and the 70-200 2.8. All deliver exceptional results on this body.Focus/Auto Focus: The Autofocus, as usual, is excellent. You can set the Eye AF to target human, bird/animal, animals, birds, insects, car/train, and Airplane. I haven't used it on anything but my dogs and cats so far, and so far it has been flawless. I used the Eye AF on the A7RIII almost exclusively. It really makes shooting with lenses with really narrow DoF very easy. Additionally, it has human movement AF that keeps focus on the subject even when the eyes aren't visible (like when shooting a subject from behind). I have not really tried out the video focus capabilities because it's winter in PA and too cold to be outside shooting (haha). It has 693 Phase Detection Points too!Menu: The menu has changed styles and I definitely like the change. With the A7RIII, a rarely used the touch screen, but with the new menu system on this, I do and even having it only a week, I can say it's definitely improved. As usual, with Sony Menus, it takes a bit of research to find out what and where everything is. I'm sure with a little practice, the new menu will be extremely usable.Video Capabilities: EDITED July 17, 2023 - One thing to note about this model, and other "R" Models in the Sony Lineup, is that this is a RESOLUTION camera, meant for stills and delivering HIGH RESOLUTION as the "R" in the model name suggests. It is NOT Sony's best video camera in my opinion, and with 10 fps, not the best for shooting stills in sports. If you're a sports shooter, look at the A1 or A9. If you are mainly interested in vlogging or video capabilities, look at the FX3, A7C, or A7S III. Sony has a variety of models to choose from that are tailored for your specific needs. I am 90% portrait photography, so the A7R5 is what I needed. I'm glad they improved the video capabilities, because I do sometimes take video. This can shoot 8K @ 24p and 4K 60p. Way more than I'd really need, but not as good as some other models out there. There are some good videos on YouTube that talk about the video capabilities on this camera and mention the ever painful rolling shutter issue.Flip Screen: The new flip screen design is amazing. I struggled with the tilt screen on the A7RIII for a long time. If you find yourself in a situation where you have the camera extended high above your head, or at any weird viewing angle, the new flip screen is easily visible. Contrast that with the previous models, where you only had a limited angle to view the screen because of the design. With the A7R5, you can view at any angle you desire, which is absolutely amazing.Size: Ergonomically, the size is a little bigger than the A7RIII. I personally like the larger grip because I always felt like the A7RIII was a little small in my hand. The A7R5 has a bigger grip and overall is slightly larger than the III. (In the photos, the A7R5 is on the right, and the A7RIII on the left).Storage: A7R5 has dual SD/CFExpress slots. For the sports photographers, that's another benefit over the A7R3. I most likely won't use CFExpress cards as the cost is fairly prohibitive, but it's nice to know that this body has that capability. For portraiture, SD cards handle everything very well.Side Ports: On the side ports, they've replaced the 'floppy' cover with a hinge design. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet since I haven't hooked up external monitors or anything. They seem pretty solidly built but one would have to use them a lot to test. One thing to note is that if you do have cables plugged into the USB or HDMI ports on this body, it can block the screen a bit. This is overcome by using the flip out mechanism to bring the screen away from the body more. Not a deal breaker at all.Viewfinder/Screen: Beautiful. Monitor is 2,095,000 dots and the viewfinder is over 9,400,000 dots with 100% coverage.Continuous Shooting: It can capture 10 frames per second and caps out at 583 frames (RAW) and 1000 frames (JPG). Pretty beastly.Image Sizes with 14-bit depth (I shoot 3:2 Raw so I get the largest files).3:2 JPEG / Raw60 MP (9504 x 6336)26 MP (6240 x 4160)15 MP (4752 x 3168)4:3 JPEG / Raw54 MP (8448 x 6336)23 MP (5552 x 4160)13 MP (4224 x 3168)16:9 JPEG / Raw51 MP (9504 x 5344)22 MP (6240 x 3512)13 MP (4752 x 2672)1:1 JPEG / Raw40 MP (6336 x 6336)17 MP (4160 x 4160)10 MP (3168 x 3168)It also has interval shooting, self-timer, electronic shutter (7 fps @ 61MP), 5-axis stabilization and sensor shift, IP streaming capability, WiFi MIMO 5 (5 GHz or 2.4 GHz), Fast/Slow Motion Support. One thing it doesn't have is the GPS Positioning.I'm really happy with the capabilities of this camera and look forward to shooting with it quite a bit. It comes in way less than the A1 on price and since I didn't need that capability, this model is perfect for my needs. Highly recommend!UPDATE: So, I've had the camera for a while now and finally did some shooting with a model friend and we generated these images. I added 2 images to the lineup. The camera is all it's cracked up to be.UPDATE 2 - 16-OCT-2023: Still going strong and I love it even more. I don't even use the A7RIII any more because it seems inferior to this body in terms of resolution and image quality, which is to be expected. I took the III out for a couple shots, and it didn't last long. I realized quickly that the A7R5 is just so much nicer to use. I'm going to be looking for another body in 2024, and I'm considering a backup 5 or maybe something with better video specs... but not sure yet. Still feel the same way about this body as I did when I wrote the review, it's my go-to camera and is still delivering crisp beautiful images with no issues.

Title: Best camera on the market for still shots
Review: I actually purchased an A1 first and sent it back because this camera came out a week later. Don’t give me wrong. The A1 was amazing but it was dated and there were no updates available. Plus, this camera came with the AI auto focusing, subject, recognition, and 61 megapixels. The shutter is as fast as they come. You can tell by the way it stopped the hummingbird pictured here in time. Also, the 61 megapixels make this camera superior to all others for Astro photography. Paired with any of the GM lenses you can’t go wrong. I highly recommend this camera.

Title: Seriously Powerful Camera
Review: I buy a lot of things from Amazon. I've never left a review. I felt it was necessary for the A7RV.I thought my old Nikon D7200 was good. I got crystal-clear shots, it had enough features to keep me learning and pleased, and I loved the dials and menu. I had a hard time convincing myself to upgrade. "Why bother?" I thought, "My pictures are already good enough."Looking back, I'm so happy I did. My photography skills didn't immediately improve when I got the camera, but I suddenly had more options. The 61 megapixels give such high-quality shots that each picture you get, you can zoom and crop really giving you several shots in one.The menu is fine, and that's coming from a several years long Nikon user. It took a bit of getting used to, and there are a ton of features, but I learned quickly. And photography is just the start. People will say "this isn't a video camera," but I don't know what they're talking about. I don't know the nitty-gritty details, but this thing is a video beast (you just have to learn the settings).Everything—from the weight to the extendable screen—about this device is class, composure, and brilliant engineering.I uploaded a few stills and videos. If you're not seeing perfect, crystal-clear quality blame Amazon.

Title: A class of its own
Review: On the Sony mirrorless ecosystem, this is the greatest photography camera ever.It’s the same sensor as the r iv but with the quality of life improvements that make professional work even more seemingly effortless.The 61mpsensor is detailed, razor sharp and an utter joy to play with in most lighting conditions. I’m still a little disappointed with low light but that’s not what this is for and anyone getting into this price point of professional photography equipment should look away if they didn’t already know that.The 8k video is beyond stunning…when rolling shutter is not a factor. It usually is, so just be mindful.Dual SD card slots make this a wedding photography champ.The body and the grip fit comfortably in my above average sized palms. But if I’m not using a battery grip, I do use a walnut wood base plate extension so my pinky isn’t left out.The weight is solid without being tiresome. I can easily juggle this body on a battery grip and an a7c in the other hand for a 12-hour wedding shoot, no problem. (If I were wielding two r v’s, that would be tiresome)The eye autofocus, while not perfect, is in a class of it’s own.I’m most impressed with Sony’s new auto white balance. For photo work, I just leave it permanently on. I’m loving skin tones on a Sony and I don't and the haters can hate.

Review: Please don't buy this product, as the seal was not there at all in the box and it was open. The image shoes it all. I was happy and excited in opening the product and suddenly noticed this and was really upset. The product was dusty inside when opened,so it is a used product. I don't think Sony does like this. Please people buy these products from all there savings. Stop doing this. Thank you.
