The Sony A7R is the next step in the mirrorless evolution. Consider it to be like the Nikon D800E in a far more compact body, with a much lower price tag. It isn't a fast camera by any means with a maximum burst rate just 4 fps, but then again, this isn't...

Abstract: The full-frame camera has been synonymous with the most high-end DSLRs-the biggest, the priciest. Not anymore. A new breed of camera that's light on its feet but packs the best image quality outside of pro-grade gear is here, and it starts with Sony's new...

Restrictive native lens line-up, AF not as good as A7

Full frame sensor in smaller body than your average DSLR proper, feels solid in the palm and built to last, eye level viewfinder with builtin eye sensor plus tilting rear plate LCD offers a wealth of framing options, razor sharp imagery when twinned with
Priced almost the same as a full size pro DSLR and that's without any lenses, battery life could be improved as could auto focus performance, massive file sizes require decent storage space
Taking a high-resolution sensor and putting it in a small and lightweight camera body is certainly a recipe for success, and there are no CSCs that can currently match the resolution of the Alpha 7R. The nearest is Sonys own NEX-7 and even that is a long...
The Sony Alpha 7R is a full-frame mirrorless camera with an amazing 36-megapixel image sensor. It's not quite as fast to shoot as its twin sibling, the Alpha 7, but its image quality earns it our Editors' Choice award....
