Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Switching from Cannon to SonyVerified BuyerReviewed by Motiontography - 4 février 2022
Oh my gosh, i’m so happy I made the switch. My Canon 5DSr is good but my Sony A1 took it to a couple other levels. It took a couple weeks to get over that hurdle learning a new system. Much better image quality, way more features, and it works perfect alongside my Sony a7S III For my video clients. And for my portrait studio clients, I could not be happier.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Review of Sony a1Verified BuyerReviewed by SteveB - 5 avril 2022
It's been almost 40 years since I used a dedicated camera, so the change in technology is amazing. I'm still learning to use this camera, but so far it's been easy enough and intuitive. There are endless support resources available on the internet. No doubt this is an expensive camera, and the lenses are also costly, but the results are amazing.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Beyond my expectations!Verified BuyerReviewed by VroTeck - 24 septembre 2021
Utterly blown away by the Resolution on both video and photos. At first I though...this camera was wayyy to expensive but.. wait till you get your hands on it! (I used it with the 35mm GM 1.4). One of the most stunning things that I doscovered that you can actually see stars when you point it to the sky at night. Truly blown away.

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Full Frame Mirrorless Camera on SteroidsVerified BuyerReviewed by Tiburon - 25 mars 2022
The Full Frame Mirrorless camera on steroids. It's a beast and combined with G or G-Master lenses, the technology has progressed tremendously. This is the fourth Sony Alpha camera that I've owned and this one has leaped generations ahead. Worth the $ spent.
