- I'm living in Japan and actually I was able to save 800$ to buy it in USA and deliver to Japan vs ENG version availble here. In Japan is top of that limitation only in two possibilities, buy overseas version which has ENG/Japanese only or local (600$ cheaper vs overseas) with Japanese only. With delivery fees from Sony store and customs fee, I was able to save anyway 800 $ in total :).
- full size camera made in 2018 with briliant properties comparing other cameras even made today
- first selection was Canon EOS R6, which has amazing ergonomy and properties , but price was incredible high.
- lens is simply great, I wanted lens from Tamron,but as for beginners, current selection is enough for urban and portrait. It'll worth to buy also telescopic lens too. Pictures, auto-focus, or even touching focus and manual management is great. Only dislike is complexity of menu, but once is set, that is great

Let me start of by saying I've been a professional photographer for 15 years and mostly photograph models in a studio setting or outdoors. I use natural light and also strobes. I started with Nikon, went to a Canon 5dmkii, have had other canons and also 3 fuji x series cameras
Firstly, what kind of company ships a $2000 camera without a battery charger? I get it, it can plug into your computer to charge or car adapter via USB-C. But that means more wear and tear on the USB port which will eventually be loose and then have issues. When I get home I prefer to take my battery out and put it on the charger which will tell me when its charged.
Second. I read all the reviews who talked about the poor color science and then all the videos who said all the things you had to do to fix it. I never realized how bad it actually is. When I would view my photos from my canon in camera raw or capture one I was only one click away from getting an accurate representation of what I had originally seen. Sony has its own version of Capture One (I also use the pro version) and the images look like garbage from the moment they appear on the screen. they even look worse then what you get in Lightroom.
The next issue is the awful menus. Do I need to be the next person to complain about the menus? ISO is on page 9 of the menu. White Balance on page 12. Sure, you can set a custom quick menu, but I would have expected updates to make it better.
Another thing I was kind of surprised about were the files sizes. I guess I kind of thought they would be like my Canon where a 24 megapixel image had a raw file of 24 megabytes. I did not expect the raw files to be double that. a typical raw file on the Sony is about 48 megabytes, and the matching jpeg is 12 MB.
I just can't stand shooting with this camera and the struggle of working on the images. Luckily I'm not too heavily invested in the Sony ecosystem so I can change back to Canon or even Fuji
I can even use my Canon 580ex ii successfully with this (manual mode/no HSS) with a Fomex flash trigger.
The reason I bought this however was for video. 4k is stunning, though I have to say, plan for paying a but extra for a UHS-II card to get it to work. The S&Q setting is nice for switching over to slow-mo very quickly.
The menu system is a bit much but at least it includes a lot of features that are missing with Canon. Battery performance is quite incredible.
Overall, I can't see why this camera wouldn't satisfy most pros unless they work in a harsh environment in which case, the weather sealing probably won't be enough. The compact size of it though is nice when you don't want to draw attention.
