Sony A7 mark III body + Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8 DI III VXD G2

The Sony A7 mark III body is a full-frame mirrorless camera that is perfect for professional photographers and videographers. This camera gives you even more speed and an even higher image quality than its predecessors from the A7 series. The camera has a 24.2 MP back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS image sensor and offers the option to shoot videos in 4K resolution. With no fewer than 693 phase-detection points, which cover 93% of the image, and 425 contrast AF points, you'll benefit from fast and very accurate focusing. The impressive ISO range of 100-51200 (extendable to 50-204800) also makes the A7 Mark III excellent to use in low-light situations. With the high-quality XGA OLED Tru-Finder viewfinder, you can keep a close eye on your subject and even the smallest details will be reproduced in lifelike quality. In addition, you can choose between 'High' or 'Standard' image quality for both the viewfinder and the monitor of the camera.

Beyond taking photos, the Sony A7 Mark III Body is also a great piece of kit for making professional videos. The camera does this in 4K quality across the entire width of the full-frame sensor. The new HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) picture profile supports an HDR workflow that allows you to play your images in lifelike quality on HDR-compatible TVs. For more colour gradation, you can use the S-Log2 and S-Log3 functions. Prefer to shoot in Full HD? Then you are guaranteed 120 fps with a maximum of 100 Mbps. This is ideal for when you want to edit the footage and, say, want to include slow-motion images in your videos.

Among many other things, what makes the Sony A7 Mark III so suitable for the professional photographer is the dual memory card slot. This allows you to shoot for a longer period of time without having to change the memory card in your camera. Plus, the battery life is up to 710 images per charge. With the extensive 'My Menu' function you can store up to 30 different menu options and retrieve them when you need them. The ideal way to quickly access your favourite settings and options. The mirrorless camera is also dust- and splash-proof, so you won't have to store the camera immediately in bad weather or in a humid environment.
