About this model
The Sony Alpha 7 III is a full-frame mirrorless camera built to handle almost anything. Its 24.2-megapixel back-illuminated sensor delivers clean detail and strong low-light performance, while the wide 693-point hybrid autofocus system tracks moving subjects confidently. Five-axis in-body image stabilisation steadies handheld shots with any lens, and the camera records 4K video, with 24p using the full width of the sensor. This kit pairs the body with the Sony FE 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS zoom – a compact, lightweight everyday lens covering wide-angle to short telephoto, with optical stabilisation. A strong choice for photographers and videographers wanting full-frame quality in a manageable body.
