While cameras like the new Sony Alpha 1 or Canon EOS R5 are the most talked about lately, the Sony A7 II not only remains a viable camera but is one of the cheapest full-frame cameras you can buy today.

There are a number of Sony A7 series cameras to choose from these days. The A7 ‘all-rounder’ model within that range is a great place to start.

While it may not be the latest model on the market, a good camera is always a good camera… and the Sony A7 II is a great camera. The progression of the Sony A7 range has brought some deep price cuts to its older models, such as this. This means you can now find a powerful, hardy camera like the Sony A7 II within the same price range of Sony’s entry-level full-frame cameras, if not cheaper (the Sony A7C body currently costs about £500 more).

So for any entry-level or APS-C camera owners out there wanting to go full-frame, the Sony A7 II looks to be an exceptional choice.
