The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

I have been using Sony mirrorless cameras for a long time. There is no need to enumerate the advantages of this line. I consider this camera to be the top one at the moment in terms of price / quality ratio. The BSI sensor works wonders. ISO-3200/6400, when properly shot in RAW with subsequent development, does not leave noise or traces, while maintaining image detail. Incredible ISO invariance. Just forget the ISO button! 42MP looks like a shot from a medium format camera. Colors, clarity, richness, micro-contrast. The camera is designed for creativity. Using manual optics is a pleasure. Huge selection. Sensitive sensor, resistant to "bad" (old) enlightenment. Stabilizer that fixes the image in the viewfinder. The camera is truly amazing. But, unfortunately, not particularly suitable for sports. Not the speed, the huge size of RAWs, one slot for a memory card. Sports need A9, but that's another story and other money. And this camera is for calm, thoughtful creative shooting.

Pros

BSI sensor. Sensor! Once again the sensor! Picture. Colors. 5 axis stabilizer. Ergonomics of Sony (in the viewfinder: digital zoom, zebra, focus peaking, histogram, etc.). Price reduction due to the release of a new flagship.

Cons

The battery is actively eating, which already comes with 2pcs. Only one memory card slot. The standard belt is narrow and uncomfortable, you need to take it from ordinary DSLRs. The size of the uncompressed RAW is 100MB, but we haven’t learned how to reap normally without loss. When shooting in RAW, it noticeably slows down, although this does not interfere with the shooting process, it mainly affects viewing photos.
