- Is the a7 III still worth buying?
- Yes for stills and 4K video, especially at used or discounted prices. Newer bodies add better tracking and 4K 60p, but the a7 III's sensor and autofocus remain competitive.
- How does it compare with the a7 II?
- The a7 III is a big step up: much larger AF coverage, 10fps versus 5fps, a bigger battery and dual card slots. The a7 II is cheaper but feels dated.
- Is the 28-70mm kit lens good enough?
- It is fine for daylight snapshots and travel, but soft wide open and dim at the long end. Most owners add a prime or a constant-aperture zoom for serious work.
- How is the battery life?
- Sony rates the NP-FZ100 at roughly 710 shots per charge. Owners commonly report a full day of shooting on one battery.
- Does it shoot 4K video?
- Yes, 4K at up to 30fps using the full sensor width, with microphone and headphone ports. There is no 4K 60p option.
- What is in the box?
- The body, the FE 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens, battery, charger, strap and body cap. A memory card is not included.
