According to our mirrorless camera expert
Thanks to the maximum aperture of f/1.8, you can easily create a background blur.
The camera automatically focuses on the eyes of people, animals, and birds with the real-time tracking and Eye autofocus.
You can record in 4K resolution at 60fps, so you get sharp and smooth videos.
A memory card isn't included.
The Sony A7 IV + FE 50mm f/1.8is a professional mirrorless camera with a portrait lens for photographers and videographers. The 50mm prime lens is light-sensitive thanks to the large aperture of f/1.8. This allows you to take sharp photos in dark locations. You can also create a soft background blur. That's useful for portrait photography, because you draw attention to your model. With the backlit 33-megapixel full-frame image sensor of the A7 IV, you can take clear photos and videos in dark surroundings. Capture an atmospheric sunset, for example. The smart autofocus system recognizes the eyes of people and animals. When they move, it keeps them in focus. Thanks to the fast buffer, you can take photos at 10 frames per second. You don't miss any action during a sports match, for example.
LensThe FE 50mm f/1.8 is a compact, light-sensitive lens. Thanks to the light weight of 186g, you can easily take it with you for a day. You can use it for portraits and product and landscape photos.
Image stabilizationThe 5-axis image stabilization of the A7 IV reduces motion blur up to 5.5 stops. If you're photographing by hand, you can take sharp photos with slower shutter speeds. That way, you capture a city at dusk. In the Active mode, the camera stabilizes your videos and photos even more and also crops the image. You use this mode when you like to record sports footage, for example.
VideoWith the A7 IV, you can record sharp and smooth videos in 4K at 60 frames per second. If you want to take slow-motion or sped-up recordings, you can use the Slow & Quick mode. The camera edits the footage right away. For a larger dynamic range, record in the 10-bit 4:2:2 S-CINETONE/S-LOG3 file format. In post-editing, you have full control over the lighting and colors of the footage. As a streamer, you can stream your footage with the livestream function. That way, you can share a special moment with your followers right away.

The Sony A7 IV is a powerful hybrid camera for the serious photographer and videographer. I capture smooth 4K footage and sharp 33MP photos. Thanks to the IBIS (In-Body Image Stabilization), I easily shoot stable handheld footage. However, I noticed that the burst speed for uncompressed RAW files drops to 5 to 6 fps. If you often photograph fast-moving subjects, such as athletes or race cars, and you primarily work with uncompressed files, this is something to keep in mind.
Smooth 4K videos and sharp photos I tested the Sony A7 IV with the Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II lens. With this kit, I easily capture a variety of subjects. I tested the camera at a petting zoo and photographed wide landscapes from a distance and animals up close. The photos I took with this camera are razor-sharp thanks to its 33-megapixel resolution. I shoot in RAW and JPEG so I have editing options and can share my images quickly. For example, I photograph a cat enjoying the sun, and even after zooming in, I can clearly see all its hairs in my photos. These small details stand out even more thanks to the bokeh effect I create with the lens. I'm also happy with the videos I shoot. The A7 IV films in high resolution, 4K, at 60 frames per second. This allows me to smoothly capture a couple of playful goats. I film in 8-bit to save memory. For more color depth, I switch to 10-bit. This gives me even more flexibility in post-processing.
Fast autofocus on the eyes of people and animals The Sony A7 IV's autofocus is fast and quiet. I point the camera at a goat, and it immediately focuses on its eyes. The animal isn't startled by the soft sound of the shutter release. The autofocus also works well with people, making this camera suitable for portrait photography as well. In burst mode, this camera shoots a maximum of 10 compressed RAW photos per second. If you work with uncompressed files, this drops to 5 to 6 photos per second. For most situations, this is more than enough. Do you enjoy shooting fast-moving subjects like athletes or race cars and prefer working with uncompressed files? Then keep this limitation in mind.
Handy video functions with a single button On top of the camera is a function button that I customize. With a single press, I switch between video functions like Active Mode, Focus Compensation, and AF Assist. Active Mode further stabilizes my footage when I'm filming while walking. The IBIS in this camera helps with this. Thanks to this image stabilization in the camera body, I shoot sharp videos handheld. That works well, especially when I'm filming from an awkward angle and my hand shakes more. That's why I also recommend this camera for travel photography.

What a beast of a camera this is, for both my photography and video work. Before this I had the Sony A7iii, which was already a great camera. This one has a better grip, higher megapixel sensor, and 10-bit video (this is what makes the difference for me).
Keep them coming Sony!

Switched to the cinemaline after using it for a little over 1 year for mainly video. Nothing but praise for the image quality. Unfortunately less enthusiastic in the audio field. As soon as you plug in a headphone, the screen is extremely limited when tilting because the plug is in the way. The optional XLR unit regularly malfunctions (Accessory not supported). HDMI is also not always free of interference. After 1 year, the camera is returned to Sony because the headphone plug has stopped working. In short, do you occasionally make a video? That's fine. Are you going to use it for serious filming? Then choose something from the cinema line.
