I recently found myself on a photo walk in London with a Sony A7 IV in hand, a camera I hadn’t used before in a genre I rarely shoot. Street photography isn’t my usual lane, and neither is Sony, but I figured it was a good excuse to try something new.
First impressions? The camera did everything you'd expect from a high-end mirrorless camera – it's fast, responsive, and solid in the hand. Autofocus was snappy, image quality sharp. But none of that really surprised me. What stood out wasn’t the performance, but the small touches that made the process feel unusually smooth.
