    Pretty camera with flaws
    I've been using the a7c paired with a Sony f/1.8 50mm lens for a few days now. and here are my thoughts.PROS:- It looks and feels fantastic. I absolutely love the look of it. Very sturdily built too!- Being able to auto ftp transfer photos is cool but slow. The process to set it up was cumbersome though.- Auto focus is good for faces- Battery life is great- Dynamic range is greatCONS:- IBIS is a joke - movies while moving is horrible. Don't buy this for 'vlogging' if that's still a things kids do these days- This has Sony's old menu system and it's cumbersome, uneasy to browse through and unintuitive.- Sony does not seem to support this camera anymore- Transferring individual photos to iPhone is cumbersome (makes you scan a QR code each time to connect to camera's wifi)- Sony's iphone apps are abysmal and hard to track down (imagine edge, t&t). I'm surprised why not a lot of people talk about this.- Auto focus is good for detecting faces and locking on - but not good for much else- viewfinder is the worst viewfinder i've used to date- accessing memory card and charging port and battery chambers aren't ideal. you have to literally unlock and LOCK each time. Canon does it better.I'll be switching to the cheaper Canon R8 which does not look as good but outperforms this camera in almost every way.

    Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2020
    Wow I feel like I am emerging from the Stone Age! This camera has amazing features and makes taking amazing shots and videos a breeze. I had heard a lot about the Sony mirrorless cameras but hadn’t had a chance to try one out but with the release of the A7c it was the perfect balance of price and features that I had to go for it! The real time tracking autofocus system is truly amazing and very fast allowing for fast capture of clear shots. I also really liked the 4K video recording and the inputs for a mic and headphones allowing clean audio recording with the video. This would be a great camera for anybody looking to take amazing photos and videos on the go. The size is great for travel it is almost pocketable and the kit lens has a great range. The collapsable zoom lens helped keep the form factor small and balanced with the size of the camera. I loved the silver and black color scheme for its retro feel but with modern technology. Coming from a APS-C camera, the amount of details and the dynamic range that is captured by this full frame is amazing. I didn’t think it would be that big of a difference but I can really tell the difference it image quality between this full frame and my old APS-C. The bokeh is mind blowing! No portrait mode on a phone can compete, the software makes it very easy to get studio quality results and always gets the subject in focus with the right amount of background blur. I would highly recommend it for any beginner photographer or somebody who travels a lot and wants something that can be tossed into and bag or large jacket pocket. You really can’t beat the size of this camera especially with a full frame lens, it’s almost the same size as the old digital point and shoots we all used to have.

    Best Camera for Your Lifestyle

    This is the best camera for recording your lifestyle and express yourself. Sony Alpha 7C is the most compact full-frame mirrorless available in the market. Its lightness and well-balanced body help you carry it wherever you go without any second thought. Its uncompromising capability and quality let you obtain the highest quality images and videos anywhere and at any moment. I would recommend this camera for people who want to upgrade from crop body, serious about recording your lifestyle, content creator, professionals who need a second body.

    Swivel screen
    This is the second Sony full-frame camera with an articulating screen. Another one that has this screen costs much more. It changes the game in the sense that you have much more freedom in your shot angle and also monitor yourself for the self-shot without any other accessories.

    Sony Auto Focus Tracking
    Autofocus and Video focus tracking are out of this world. You will not sacrifice shots that are out of the focus. Especially, Auto tracking enabled in the video makes this camera best for the Vlog. The enhancement on the screen brightness is an upgrade from a7m3. Some suggest viewfinder is a downgrade, but I had no problem with it. I also like how detail you can adjust focus transition speed to make it more cinematic. I wanted it to have an updated Sony menu system, but it has the previous generation touch menu system with a menu button in a weird location.

    Video reliability
    This is also a great camera for video recording with unlimited video recording minutes. You can make a professional-quality video for any type of conference or lecture. I see this can be even a great sub-camera for the professionals to have that reliable second and third view of the recording.

    New Compact bundle Lens
    Sony created a new FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 compact lens to go in hand with Sony A7C. I took several shots with this lens and it was a pleasant surprise. I usually do not have any high hopes for the bundled lens and especially the small lens. However, this produces great quality images. The compact lens size and lightness draw you to use it more often than you think.

    Video reliability
    This is also a great camera for video recording with unlimited video recording minutes. You can make a professional-quality video for any type of conference or lecture. I see this can be even a great sub-camera for the professionals to have that reliable second and third view of the recording.

    New Compact bundle Lens
    Sony created a new FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 compact lens to go in hand with Sony A7C. I took several shots with this lens and it was a pleasant surprise. I usually do not have any high hopes for the bundled lens and especially the small lens. However, this produces great quality images. The compact lens size and lightness draw you to use it more often than you think.

    I bought this camera to replace my compact, Sony, ZV1 as my everyday carry camera and to come with me places where I did not want to bring my larger A7IV. I love it! So glad I picked it up as the low light performance is terrific and photos are beautiful. The camera menu is almost identical to the ZV1 so I was comfortable navigating the camera and getting it set up. I picked up a gently used open box version, with the kit lens for a song, ($1300). I only pair my smaller sized lenses, 50mm, f2.5, Sony, G ; 24mm, f3.5, Sigma, dg dn; and 90mm, f2.8, Sigma, dg dn with it for a light, palm sized, cute, and really sharp EDC setup. 24MP is a nice sweet spot for photo quality and I love the rendering from this sensor. I have some gripes with the grip. This is not the most comfortable or ergonomic grip and does nothing to make me forget the ultimate comfort I feel from my A7IV, which seems to hug my hand. I always worry I am going to drop my A7C. Also, I was really spoiled by all the customizable buttons, dials, and controls of my A7 IV. The A7C gives you enough for utility but that's all. Also, the biggest gripe is with handheld 4k video stabilization. It is noticeably worse than my A7 IV, which makes me not want to shoot walking around video on it....something I do regularly with my A7 IV. I still love the cameras size, performance, and price. I'm getting extreme value for all this full frame goodness in a palm sized package. It doesn't make me shoot less with my aA7 IV, but I am overall getting more great photos because my A7C comes with me places the A7 IV would not.

    This camera works great for point and shoot as well as filming. I got it for filming sets at shows and taking pictures backstage. It works great in low late.

    This is not one of my favorite cameras right now. Small, light and easy to use. The most important thing about a camera is its size, and a good camera is the one that is willing to take pictures. In order to perform its function. And the full-frame function is too powerful and the picture quality is great. The important thing to mention is that its focus system should be one of the strongest I have used in cameras today.

    Perfect as a b-cam if you’re in full frame already, really compact, but if you’re upgrading from apsc and want to stay light and compact, this is the one.
