I got the a7c because I needed a second camera but was on a tight budget. This model is the best budget friendly camera while still maintaining all the great qualities of one double its price. It checked all my boxes, plus it's super light weight and easy to hold which I was not expecting. It'll certainly become my go to for travel.

This is my first mirrorless camera and I'm glad I have picked Sony. It's incredible from build to image quality and compactness, it's worth the price!

I love the marriage of compact form factor and full frame camera technology. Paired with smaller lenses this is a great walk-around setup.

Excellent pictures but worried about dark circles which are appearing at various places in my images, most noticeable in areas of sky.

Exactly as advertised and reviewed. I?m transitioning from Canon, so still getting used to the configuration. Love love love the size and everything that Sony managed to pack into this little body

The A7C is basically the A7iii in a compact body. There are less button options but if you are coming for an a6000 series camera then this won?t be an issue. It?s a great full sensor camera with IBIS but also has gyro data you can steady the shot with in post. Adorama sent this to me fast and with a signature required which I love because it?s not just sitting there waiting for a porch pirate.

I love the size of it and it has a full frame censor. I use it as my secondary camera for my weddings.

This is an excellent camera for travel and simple day hikes around town or elsewhere. It is a great size, lightweight, but also feels good in your hands. The quality of the photos is excellent with the kit lens. I would definitely recommend it.

Sony a7c, I used it like an iPhone. I took photos and videos without drawing much attention. It's easy to carry around. I even had it my hand for a whole day and never felt a thing. The image quality is great. I am also liking the new colors from Sony. The menu system is not smooth, but not a deal breaker. I am having a fun time using my new Sony a7c. I think it's worth the extra money over a Sony a6400 or a6600.

Just another Sony clone of the A7 III that is a tiny bit smaller.

To be clear, I'm glad I bought this. It adds something new to my hardware portfolio. The size and weight is appealing and it looks nice too. But the OS is excruciatingly slow, the viewfinder uselessly small, and a great dearth of buttons and knobs with which to control basic features. Using the camera is a lesson in patience, especially when your main unit is a snappy A1.

Superb mirrorless full-frame camera in a really small package. Kit lens much better -sharper, versatile- than expected. Just swapped into the Sony system from a different brand and couldn?t be more pleased with the improvements in image quality and focusing system.

I really like this camera. It?s small, full frame, and with a small lens, easily slides and fits into fanny packs and bags compared to a DSLR. Having a lens with an aperture ring helps the handling a lot so you don?t have to over use your thumb. Also, I haven?t had a camera with a digital viewfinder before and after reading other reviews I was worried about the size, however, the viewfinder works just fine for me. Not having a viewfinder on top really makes this camera more accessible to bring with you. Besides, you also have a screen. I switched over from Pentax DSLR and overall the handling isn?t as good as that. Pentax just get?s it with handling, however, the size and autofocus EASILY makes up for it. And besides, you get good at what you practice so even though the handling isn?t the best, with practice it it?s fine. Did I mention how good the autofocus is? If you are coming from a DSLR you will be blown away.

I went weeks at a time without taking photos using my Nikon D500 kit. When I used it, I loved it. But times between uses were ever lengthening. The A7c hangs beside my keys and my mask, and it goes out with me every single day. If I'm with the kid, I grab the kit lens and it's basically a point and shoot on steroids. If I'm alone or with the wife, I grab the 24-70/f4 or 85/f1.8 and have a completely capable kit for portfolio/print ready shots. It's usable in any light and the results are always shockingly sharp. Technical specs and various photo nerd needs aside... It just FEELS good. It's versatile and a joy to use. It reminds me of a Leica or Ricoh in that regard. Quirks and quibbles disappear when it comes time to shoot and it just becomes an extension of you. Traded a mountain of old gear for it and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

I bought this back in the Summertime, and it's been a bit of a challenge to learn. It's VERY nicely set up with wide angle photos (great for landscapes with different lenses) and the manual adjustment is smooth and easy. I'm not too fond of the sudden 'microscoping' when using the manual focus, but I'm used to it. I kinda wish I could turn that off though. Overall a nice camera, good for photos and video, the battery doesn't burst into flames when you go over 10 minutes of running it, and the battery life is AMAZING. I use the camera almost every day.

Rolling shutter is terrible in silent shooting mode. Flash sync speed is 1/125 of a second, not good. Everything else is okay. I feel like they could have made this even smaller. For example, use a smaller battery. I have no problem carrying around 3 batteries. The thing is, it's a compact full frame camera. Why settle for mediocre compact when it can get even smaller. I'd much prefer they work on something like the rx100 with a better sensor but instead we got the a7c. just an extra little note to add. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the evf or the grip. You hear a lot of complaints in camera reviews about it. They are fools. It's a compact camera. Buy it for compact purpose. Compact it, make the grip smaller, make the viewfinder hard to find, I don't care.

I love this camera so much. It's such a useful small size. The kit lens is great, but when you slap a fancy lens on this bad boy the quality is incredible!! best of both worlds. every single part of the camera is so well made and has very satisfying feel when using. and it has a million features. love love love it!

The camera itself is an excellent camera, but the kit lens Sony 28-60 mm zoom ring did not rotate smoothly and stopped at 50 mm mark. Not a Sony quality so I returned the whole thing, the camera and it?s lens to Adorama, which Adorama replace it immediately and still waiting for the arrival of the new replacement. I am very happy with the focus and exposure of the camera

Camera is amazing. Can?t wait to get more lenses, and capture some amazing adventures with my family.

This is honestly too much camera for me- I?m definitely not a photographer. Even with my lack of experience/talent it takes amazing photos, and videos. Definitely want to get more lenses, so it?s easy to see how this can quickly become an expensive hobby. Looking forward to capturing a lot of adventures, and memories in the future.

It is a compact full-frame camera. Some say that that this camera do not have enough custom buttons. But I would rather have a smaller size camera that I can easily take with me and take more pictures with. And there are dozens of videos on Youtube that helped me utilize the necessary functions with more ease. So far, I have nothing to complain about this camera. I also purchased a compact lens (40mm 2.5G) that can maximize its mobility. What can I say? This camera rekindled the passio...
