The best mirrorless camera that money can buy
Phenomenal image quality in almost any situation ; Extremely fast and responsive ; Compact, lightweight design with well-placed controls ; Superb electronic viewfinder ; In-body image stabilisation gives sharper images with any lens
AF area is invisible when moved using the joystick ; Rear screen only tilts up or down ; Handgrip too close to the lens for shooting with gloves
Quite simply, the Sony A7R III is a ludicrously brilliant camera, and one of the very best on the market.

It's the best mirrorless all-rounder and one of the best cameras of any kind
42.2MP at 10fps ; 5-axis IS system ; Fast autofocus
Battery could be better

Sony's megapixel monster gets a performance boost
10fps at 42.2MP ; Advanced 5-axis IS system ; Large and bright EVF ; Fast AF performance ; Improved handling
Battery life could still be better ; Limited touchscreen control ; Only one SD slot supports UHS-II cards
The Sony Alpha A7R III is not only the most well-rounded mirrorless camera you can buy today, but one of the best cameras out there right now.
Expert review by : Timothy Coleman (pocket-lint.com)
The Sony A7R III is the epitome of quality, whatever your genre of photography. It's one of the first mirrorless cameras to outsmart a DSLR.
Sharp images with plenty of detail and exceptional dynamic range ; Much improved new battery with 650-single-shot-life ; Lovely electronic viewfinder ; Very respectable high-speed performance ; Customisable 'My Menu' for direct access to most used...
Still takes a while to work your way around the camera ; LCD touchscreen lacks some functionality ; Some buttons/dials are not the easiest to control ; Still uncomfortable to hold with larger lenses
The Sony A7R III is the epitome of competence, whatever your genre of photography. Only the more demanding sports and wildlife photographers will need the A9, while landscape and studio photographers will struggle to find a better full-frame camera.

Sony hits the prosumer sweet spot with its latest full-frame camera
Fast burst mode and autofocus ; Superb all-round video and still quality ; Lengthy battery life
Large body by CSC standards ; Screen tilts but doesn’t flip
A true imaging powerhouse, with the price tag to match
Expert review by : Sam Kieldsen (stuff.tv)
The finest camera Sony has ever made
Superb image quality ; Excellent low light capabilities ; Compact given its specs
Video record button is annoyingly placed ; We can’t afford one
A no-compromise compact system camera for well-heeled enthusiasts

The Sony Alpha a7R III is Sony's latest attempt at a high-end, full frame mirrorless camera and an update to the a7R II. With some impressive claims about image quality and shutter speed, we put this latest model to the test to see how it compares with...

We review the Sony Alpha A7R Mark III, find out how the new 42mp Full-Frame camera performs.
The Sony Alpha A7R Mark III delivers excellent image quality with good colour, and very good noise performance. Levels of detail in images can be improved by using the Pixel shift multi-shot mode, for still subjects, although this does require further...

We go hands-on with the Sony Alpha A7R Mark III, and post full-size sample photos from the new 42mp Full-Frame camera.
Expert review by (engadget.com)
Sony's A7R III handles landscapes, action and video with aplomb.
Its only real rival is the superb Nikon D850, and which you choose may depend on whether you prefer mirrorless or DSLR. DP Review called them "genuinely two of the best cameras the world has ever seen."
