The editors didn't like
Battery life is still too low (200 photos at best)
Camera freezes while saving a burst of photos
Sensor is sensitive to dust
Huge file size

Terrible battery life and a mushy shutter mechanism may negatively impact your shooting experience. Also
There's general highlight clipping in still photos and artifacts in some high-ISO-sensitivity shots that we hope Sony can improve via a firmware upda
Review: Comprehensive Look At Sony Alpha 7R II Sony has been one of the earliest camera manufacturers out there that moved from the traditional DSLR camera that uses mirror/prism to the now-popular mirrorless system. They started well with the Alpha SLT...
Bigger 42.4MP sensor makes for more detailed pictures, 4K recording ability brings this Alpha series flagship up to date, High ISO threshold allows for better shots in low-light environments
Recording button is still inconveniently on the camera grip
Sony's Alpha 7R II is one of the very reasons that the mirrorless compact professional camera line has pulled ahead of its competitors. Its 42.4MP full-frame mirrorless sensor is amazing, the handling brilliant, and its features are simple and easy to use...
Superb image quality, Excellent low light capabilities, Compact given its specs
Video record button is annoyingly placed, We can't afford one
We know what you're thinking: this camera costs over two and half grand, and that doesn't even include a lens. And you're right: the A7R II is eye-wateringly expensive – over RM4,000 more than the original A7R was at launch. But it's just so, so good.Whil...
Superb image and video quality, 4K video capture with 25p framerate, 399point AF system, Silent shooting (Electronic shutter), Very high ISO
Average battery life, 5axis don't work properly sometimes, No builtin flash
We wish we had more time with the camera and an extra pair of prime lenses to click and capture some razer-sharp images and videos. For someone like us who owns a Sony APS-C E-Mount camera, the Sony α7R II is clearly a big jump when it comes to image sens...

Compact, robust body, Produces vibrant and detailed images, Astounding ISO sensitivity, Easy to navigate dials and instrumentations, Snaps silently, Satisfactory AF
EVF sensor is sensitive, Record button is oddlyplaced, Takes a while to pair with other devices using WiFi
The Sony a7R II undoubtedly has what it takes to be one of the best full-frame mirrorless cameras out in the market. It's a fitting example of what a camera should be with all the useful features squeezed...
Abstract: After a complete redesign, the second-generation A7R at 625g is tiny, featuring a new 42.4-megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor, which Sony touts as the most advanced and versatile image sensor it has ever made.But does this make the S$4,099 mirrorless...
Abstract: Comparing the cameras in Sony's a7 full-frame interchangeable lens mirrorless camera series can be confusing. For one thing, the models have similar names like a7 II, a7S and a7R. Each of the models also has its own strengths. The latest Sony a7R II stil...
Estamos ante una cámara de precio elevado (3.500 euros el cuerpo) dirigida a un público muy concreto además de exigente. Estos dos aspectos no son críticos pero si es cierto que no es una cámara competitiva en el mercado ya que su público objetivo está mu...
