Alpha 7 IIby Sony
PROS
- Alpha 7 II images have excellent sharpness with few artifacts.
- The five-axis image stabilization is solid, especially when shooting stationary handheld video.
- The continuous autofocusing is fast and accurate when shooting moving subjects.
CONS
- Autofocusing in low light scenes is not as good as most prosumer DSLRs.
- The battery life for a custom lithium-ion pack at 340 shots with LCD or at 270 shots with electronic viewfinder is fair for a compact camera but poor compared to most DSLRs.
- This camera lacks a built-in flash.

My only criticisms regarding buttons is the rather awkward positioning of the movie-record button, which when pressed using the thumb has a tendency to jolt the camera slightly, and the rear control wheel being too small and fiddly to use in bitter winter conditions when gloves were worn.

The camera automatically switches between the EVF and rear LCD via an eye sensor. The sensor is a bit hyperactive—its range is a bit excessive, so it's fairly easy to fool the camera into switching to the EVF when you're actually holding it at waist level

The tilting screen is now more smoothly integrated into the camera body, and this means it can, at times, feel a little difficult to pull away from the camera to tilt the screen.

Undoubtedly, the biggest draw of the A7 II is its 24-megapixel full-frame sensor. With a lens system that's still quite a ways behind Panasonic, Olympus, Canon, Nikon, and even Fujifilm, it's the best reason to opt for Sony's fledgling system.

The Mark II uses the E-mount and there are seven full-frame (FE) lenses available including primes and zooms. It’s far from a huge selection but the key bases are covered, and Sony plans to grow it.

We found the A7 II's "SteadyShot INSIDE," as Sony calls it, works very well, for both stills and stationary, handheld video. For run-and-gun video, or other video with lots of camera movement, however, the IS system did not show significant improvement over non-stabilized footage.
