Item Description: I've got a Sony A7RII that I bought new from Adorama, came with the kit 28-70 lens and I added a SmallRig L-bracket to it for tripod use. Shortly after picking it up I got a deal on an A7RIV that I couldn't pass up so this has been sitting here "collecting dust" and figured it needs to move along. If you really need me to I can get the total shutter count, but it's less than 500.

Asking $1400. Would consider trades, but the only thing I'm really looking for right now is an Impact action to build on.

If you're looking to get into a mirrorless camera, you'd be hard pressed to find much better than this.

Specs from DP Review:

The Sony a7R II is a 42MP full frame mirrorless camera with 5-axis image stabilization, featuring the world's first (and currently only) 35mm BSI CMOS sensor, and including a hybrid autofocus system and 4K video capabilities. It's the fifth in the company's a7 range of full frame cameras and the second high-resolution 'R' model. However, although its name and appearance are very similar to the first round of a7s, the R II arguably represents just as significant a step forwards as those first full frame mirrorless models did.

The reasons for suggesting this are two-fold. Although the a7R II's body is essentially the same as that of the 24MP a7 II (albeit with more substantial magnesium alloy construction), the camera includes two significant changes:

The first is that this is the first full frame camera to feature a sensor based on BSI CMOS technology. Although Sony always stressed that the benefits of BSI designs are most valuable in small sensors, its application on larger scales should reduce the pixel-level disadvantages of moving to higher pixel counts (which means an improvement in quality when viewed at a standard output size).

Secondly, and perhaps, most unexpectedly: the camera's phase-detection autofocus capabilities have been increased to the point that it not only focuses quickly and effectively with its own lenses but can also do so with lenses designed for other systems. This may not sound like a big deal until you think about what Sony needs to do to make the camera a success: win-over dedicated photographers, many of whom are already committed to other systems.

Sony a7R II Highlight specifications

42MP Full Frame BSI CMOS sensor

399 on-sensor Phase Detection points

5-axis image stabilization

Internal 4K recording from full sensor width or 'Super' 35 crop

Picture Profile system including ITU-709 and S-Log2 gamma

Full magnesium alloy construction

2.36m dot OLED viewfinder with 0.7x magnification

High speed AF with non-native lenses

The rest of the camera's core capabilities are exactly as you would expect from a high-resolution camera at this level: weather-sealed magnesium alloy body, twin control dials, extensive customization of control points and 5fps shooting.

The camera's video capabilities, though, are well worth highlighting. Like the recently-released, and more video-focused a7S II, the a7R II can record 4K (UHD) video internally. But, unlike the a7S II, its sensor has enough resolution to shoot using a near full-frame crop or a Super 35 (~APS-C) crop. In fact, the camera is over-sampling when you shoot Super 35 4K - which should help control moiré. These two modes should let you choose between the shallow depth-of-field and low-light capability of using the full sensor, vs. the effective extra reach and greater lens compatibility of Super 35 mode (though our testing shows this isn't quite the case).
