A Long-Term Review of the Sony a7C Mirrorless Camera

The Sony a7C was the company's first major design departure from the highly respected a7 series of mirrorless camera, taking a full frame sensor and dropping it into a remarkably small and portable body, albeit with a few compromises. How does it hold up over the long run? This great video review discusses the camera. 

Coming to you from Mike Smith, this excellent video review takes a long-term look at the Sony a7C mirrorless camera. The a7C took some of the features of the popular a7 series and reduced the footprint and weight by 20%, though there are a few compromises, most notable being the loss of a second card slot. Nonetheless, it comes with a variety of useful features, including:

• 24.2-megapixel Exmor R BSI CMOS sensor
• 15 stops of dynamic range
• ISO range (expanded) of 50-204,800
• 5-axis in-body image stabilization
• Hybrid autofocus system featuring 693 phase-detection and 425 contrast-detection points
• Real-time Eye AF and Tracking AF
• 4K video at 30 fps with 2.4x oversampling
• 1080p video at up to 120 fps
• Burst rate of 10 fps
• 3.0" vari-angle touchscreen LCD
• 2.36-million-dot OLED EVF
• Magnesium alloy chassis with weather-sealing
• Internal Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

Altogether, the a7C is a capable and portable camera. Check out the video above for Smith's full thoughts.
