November 2014 The Sony a7 II (ILCE-7M2) is a full frame mirrorless camera. Sony released the camera in November 2014 as an upgrade to the original a7. Sony designed this camera as a great general-purpose camera.

The Sony A1 is easily the best camera I've ever had. For the type of work I do, no other camera bodies I've had in the past can compare to the A1. This camera can genuinely do it all, and I've been so happy with its performance throughout every challenging shooting situation I've thrown at it.

Sony offers the Alpha line of high-end mirrorless cameras. The company sold roughly 2.11 million units globally in 2022, according to Euromonitor. Of those, China accounted for 150,000 units, with the rest, or 90%, sold elsewhere, meaning the bulk of Sony's Chinese production has been shifted to Thailand.

The most technologically advanced, innovative camera that Sony has ever released, the Alpha 1 combines high-resolution and high-speed performance at a level never previously reached.

This camera is perfect in a lot of ways, but there are still areas in which the Sony A1 still excels. First- the Sony does still have a higher resolution sensor at 50mp as opposed to 45.7mp. Also, Sony technically can capture more frames in various RAW formats adding slightly more flexibility in its speed.

Sony appears to have finally and quietly discontinued the last of its DSLRs. The a99 II, a77 II, and a68 cameras show as “no longer available” through dealers and have been removed from the company's official website.

The Sony α7 II is a full-frame mirrorless camera originally released in 2014. Nearly a decade after its release, it's Sony's most affordable full-frame camera that you can still buy new, with a sensor that still largely holds its own in today's market.

In the same announcement, Sony also confirmed that it will no longer produce any a7 II or a6100 camera systems.

Best Sony Camera The Sony α7 IV is the best Sony Alpha camera we've tested. It's a true hybrid camera that can do it all. It has plenty of dynamic range for high-contrast scenes and a 33MP sensor that gives you more leeway to crop your photos.

In 2022, Sony sold about 2.11 million cameras worldwide. Of these, 150,000 units are destined for China, with more than 90% being destined for Japan, the United States, and Europe. Most of the production has been transferred to Thailand.

Japan Sony Global Manufacturing & Operations Corporation (SGMO) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sony Corporation and responsible for managing manufacturing operations both in Japan and overseas, through its own factories as well as third party contract manufacturers.

Yes, the price tag may be hefty, but there's no question you're getting your money's worth. If you're looking for a camera, you won't need to upgrade for quite a while; this is the one. Instead of carrying two separate bodies for photo and video, this hybrid camera performs incredibly.
