Bei der Bildqualität hat der Hersteller hier alles richtig gemacht denn die 7 verhält sich auch bei wenig Licht hervorragend. Dabei ist sie zwar nicht ganz so schnell wie die top Modelle aber einen schnellen Autofokus hat sie allemal. Zudem ist sie sehr gut ausgestattet und lässt sich sehr gut bedienen.

Stiftung WarentestSystemkameras mit Sucher (im Test mit ihrem Setobjektiv)ReleaseFebruary 2014

Vollformat zum Tiefpreis. Die derzeit billigste Systemkamera mit großem Vollformatsensor: ermöglicht Schärfentiefe bis ins kleinste Detail. System ohne Spiegel, sehr guter elektronischer Sucher und guter Monitor zum Klappen. Pluspunkte: staub- und spritzwassergeschützt, für hohe Ansprüche, mit Netzwerkfunktion zum Fernsteuern der Kamera und Weitergeben der Bilder.
