I bought this amazing camera about 3 weeks ago and I can honestly say this is what a camera should be. Granted with a good Zeiss lens and battery grip and flash Its quite a spend purchase. But I must say its worth every penny! I was waiting on Canon to upgrade to Full Frame but they seen to not be doing much so this 15 year Canon user just switched to Sony. I love LOVE LOVE this camera!
My Best Buy number: 811705668
What's great about it: Wifi - Full Frame - Zeiss Lenses - 117 focal points
What's not so great: nothing so far
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent camera especially if you have a load of old glass laying around, this camera will make them shine again. Honestly i can't think of any major negatives. This camera is just a pleasure to use and it delivers. So far I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

Designed for use with select Sony cameras, this Sony HVLF60M external flash features a Quick Shift Bounce system to help maintain even horizontal light distribution. The built-in LED light lets you easily switch between shooting stills and videos.

I have no complaints about this flash thus far. I have used it a few times and have not run into any problems yet. I did read some negative reviews about this flash elsewhere about it having an issue with overheating. However, I think Sony addressed this issue with a flash firmware update that is now on these newer flashes. I have had no issues with the unit overheating.
The new multi interface shoe on newer Sony Alpha cameras has created quite a problem trying to find flash systems that support High Speed Sync. This flash works really well on all of the new E-mount camera systems. My main reason for purchase was a HSS solution for my A7r and A6000 cameras. This flash can act as a commander to control several other HVLF60M flashes in HSS. It can also be controlled by other Sony flashes such as the HVLF32M and HVLF20M.
All in all, this flash works well and is very easy to setup right out of the box. If I had to complain about one thing at this point it would be the lack of RF control not being built into the flash. I would really like Sony to incorporate an RF system in a version 2 of this flash such as the likes incorporated into Canon’s 600EX-RT flash.

Utilizing a Carl Zeiss T-star coating, this dust- and moisture-resistant Sony SEL2470Z zoom lens allows you to shoot clear, detailed images using your compatible Sony a7-series full-frame camera. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization minimizes blur.
is this lens much better than the kit 28-70 on the a7?
YES!!!
