Sony α7R IV Gets DPReview’s Gold Award

The new Sony α7R IV full-frame mirrorless camera has earned DPReview’s Gold Award. The rating comes after Carey Rose and Richard Butler performed a comprehensive review of the camera, examining its handling and controls, image quality, autofocus, performance, video capabilities and more. See more of what the reviewers had to say about the camera and how it earned its gold rating.

Summary of the review

The Sony a7R IV is among the most capable cameras we've tested. It makes a compelling case that the days of choosing between speed-oriented cameras and resolution-oriented cameras are coming to an end. It wouldn't be our top choice for sports and action purists (all those megapixels result in many megabytes of storage), but for those users that need this resolution on a regular basis and want to be able to photograph fast-moving subjects when necessary, the Sony a7R IV is the best option on the market right now.

Some key takes from the review

“Perhaps Sony's greatest triumph is the a7R IV doesn't feel like it's churning out 60MP files”

“The a7R IV offers a unique blend of high resolution and nearly industry-leading autofocus. Improved ergonomics make the camera much easier to use.”

“For professional wedding photographers, landscape shooters and studio portraitists, the Sony a7R IV is, frankly, the camera to beat right now.”
