Is the a7 III still worth buying?

Yes for stills and video at this price. Its full-frame sensor, stabilization and 4K video remain competitive, though newer Sony bodies have better autofocus.

Is the 28-70mm II lens good enough?

It is a fine general-purpose starter zoom for travel and everyday shots. Add a prime if you want sharper results and better low-light performance.

Does it shoot 4K video?

Yes, it records 4K video with full-frame readout and uses in-body stabilization to steady handheld clips.

Is it weather sealed?

Yes, the body is weather sealed, so it handles light rain and dust better than an unsealed camera. It is not waterproof.

The camera body, the FE 28-70mm II zoom lens, a detachable flash, battery, charger and strap.

How does it compare with the a7 IV?

The a7 IV adds a higher-resolution sensor, a newer autofocus system and a flip-out screen. The a7 III remains the simpler, lighter option for stills and basic video.
