With its impressive ISO handling and superb image quality, we think it's one of the best astrophotography cameras around, and we gave it a huge 4.5/5 stars in our Sony A7 IV review. Its 33MP sensor produces beautifully rich and detailed images with a fantastic dynamic range, and it will deliver amazing results for almost any style of photography. At this price, it's the perfect camera to get if you want to advance into the full-frame system from your older DSLR or APS-C camera without breaking the bank.

During our Sony A7 IV review, we took it to Glastonbury Tor to shoot astrophotography, went to sunflower fields for portraits and tested its mettle in woodlands with harsh shadows — it hit it out of the park every single time. It doesn't have the fastest burst rate (10FPS), but it's more than capable of capturing great wildlife photography — you'd only want to consider another option if you shoot real fast action stuff and you need a large buffer. For that, you'll want one of the best cameras for wildlife photography.
