Buying call

Buy the A7 V if you want a full-frame all-rounder that handles action: reviewers praised its big autofocus upgrade with an AI processor, 30fps blackout-free 14-bit RAW bursts with pre-capture, tighter rolling-shutter control, a large viewfinder and a screen that both flips and tilts. Skip it if video is your priority, because reviewers found its video specs behind rivals. CFexpress Type A cards are still expensive.
