There's no need to jump on this at this price unless you really want an a7iii and have access to a EDU account.
Personally I shoot on this camera like a ton of other SD users and love it. It's a great full frame camera and keeps professional work cheap using something like Tamron glass. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to get more seriously into photography, but not totally break the bank on your budget getting setup.
Thumbs up from me. 👍👍👍
The difference is modern smartphones remove the need for proper knowledge and technique to produce fairly nice photos.
Too many people think buying an expensive camera will make them take better pictures. It wont. You as a person have to be able to use the camera effectively.
All else equal an unskilled individual will take substantially better pictures on a phone.

I own a DSLR and an S21U 256GB with a Samsung and a pen case. The difference in the quality is like a power lifter and a body builder. The definition, the esthetic, the look, etc, stop speaking nonsense 🙄
First in regard to your aps-c question. I would not use this camera with those lenses. Your megapixels will be about 11 in aps-c. You would be better off getting a better lense unless you eventually are going all FF. not apples to apples but I have the a7riii that we use for amateur landscape. It is an AMAZING camera. This is probably better for those not doing much large scale outdoor shots though as you don't need the extra resolution and the a7iii will have better low light performance per reviews. Pair this with a relatively cheep tamron and I think this would be great too. I also have a Sony a6000 because I wanted to try something lighter/smaller for long hikes. If you have and a6xxx and don't want to shell out the serious money for full frame camera and FF lens look at upgrading to the new tamron aps-c lens. (17-70). I have not used it yet and know it has its flaws but- I have compared the the Sony 18-135 on the a6000 with the FF tamron trio on same camera and the tamron lenses give a way superior photo (same shot outdoors on tripod a few minutes apart). Finally to those who are saying phone camera is good enough. If all you are doing is very small photos or online, I agree with you. If you want to enlarge, resolution is terrible (did the same test with outside shot with my photo above with iPhone 11. With same zoom, the iPhone just made me cringe, a6000/ 18-135 was moderately good if you don't pixel peep, a6000 with tamron made me smile and enjoy photography and the a7riii with tamron made me say. *%#+ THAT IS NICE!
Lol wut? Fanboy was your first big swing and a miss.
All high end features on cameras have diminishing returns and are only useful to a select subset of users. But for those who need that of which other models don't offer the price is worth it.....no matter how hard it is for you and your limited ability to understand the usefulness.

No, photography is art of composing. To be a great one, needs serious gift and talent and practice. Just like drawing: a pencil is enough and it is not rocket science.
Handling of the camera is pretty much the same on both. Other than an added dial, the bodies are the same. If you have any long lens, get a grip to add on it balances the camera and is is easier to hold.
I never understand why people come on the camera body sales and bash the item for what it is. I pass by 100's of items on SD and never look at the comments. If I don't like the product it occupies less than a second of my time and is forgotten.
The A7IV is rumored to be announced in the fall, and possibly late year release. Rumors only. Expect around a 2K price and no EDU deals for a while. I am going to assume it will be an awesome camera.
