The Sony α7R III has won the coveted DPReview Gold Award. In their comprehensive review, the DPReview staff puts the camera to the test in a variety of still and video shooting situations. Here are some of the highlights from the in-use review:
"Essentially it can be seen as an α7R II that inherits many of the lessons learned from the company's pro-sports model, the α9. This means faster processing, improved autofocus, improved handling and ergonomics, as well as the adoption of a much larger battery. While some of the individual changes are subtle, they very quickly combine to produce a hugely capable and highly useable camera."
"The sheer capability of the Sony α7R III is hard to overstate. With the sports-oriented α9, Sony was aiming for outright speed; the α7R III has inherited much of that, but offers far more resolution and dynamic range...the α7R III is a camera that you can shoot just about anything with, from landscapes to fast action."
"It's fair to say that the Sony α7R III is a great option for an incredibly wide variety of photographers. Offering great image quality, fast burst shooting speeds, high quality 4K video and a reasonably compact package, it's an incredibly well-rounded offering. The endless customization options can be daunting at first, but in the end, it's a camera equally at home capturing fast action one moment, and expansive landscapes the next."
The α7R III also gets 2017 DPReview Staff Picks for Landscapes, People & Events and Cameras Over $2000.
