According to our mirrorless camera expert
The Sony Alpha A7 is a professional system camera with a 24.3-megapixel full-frame sensor. In fact, this camera has everything you're looking for in a single-lens reflex camera when it comes to manual control, but in a compact size. This makes it suitable for traveling photographers. The metal casing is sealed, making it rainproof and dust proof. The Alpha A7 can record up to 1080/60p video with the same manual controls as in photo mode. The A7 has an E mount but can also be used with NEX-line lenses, although you won't be able to make use of the sensor's full frame.

I use the Sony Alpha A7 for taking medical photos, mounted on an operating microscope. Until now I didn't use a full-frame camera. The great thing about the Alpha A7 is that it has a full-frame sensor and is still affordable in price. This allows me to get the full images directly and as I see them on an external screen, which is ideal for documentation. The images are razor sharp and full of color. The settings are simple. The recording function also does its job more than properly.

The A7 was purchased to film with and to serve as a backup for photo assignments Good for manual focusing of old retro lenses with adapter. I don't think the A7 is the durable workhorse like the canon 5D My advice is buy the new version A7 mark2 All the gadgets will come into their own there But remember.. good lenses cost money and full frame lenses cost even more. or.. deviate from the full frame concept and go for the sony A6300

Good automatic white balance. Reuse of old lenses via adapter. Indication focus with manual lenses very useful.
