Community Reviews
Sony's a7 IV is framed as a strong full frame mirrorless body for video and a solid all around system, especially when paired with Sony's broad third party lens ecosystem. The camera itself is praised as reliable and capable, with the a7 IV still described as very good for video on Sony prime lenses. The main concern is value at this price, with several comments putting a fairer body price closer to $1,600 to $1,800. The Macy's Star Money promo also looks shaky, with reports of short expiration windows and third party seller orders not qualifying, making the bundle harder to justify.
Common Questions (4)
Sony has a much larger selection of affordable third-party lenses, which makes the system more flexible and often cheaper to build out. Canon RF/RF-D is more closed, so buyers can be stuck with expensive Canon lenses.
Macy's customer service confirmed the credit can be used to buy lenses. The offer is tied to the purchase, but orders fulfilled by third-party sellers may not qualify for the full Star Money amount.
The a7 IV is still a strong camera, especially for video on Sony prime lenses, but this price is considered high for the body and kit. A more reasonable target mentioned is about $1,600-$1,800 for a USA non-import.
Star Money expires 30 days after issuance. That makes it useful only if you can spend it quickly, especially since Macy's pricing is often inflated.

The differences here, One has slightly faster AF. Another slightly better IQ due to a more advanced sensor for this day, and pioneering in the mirrorless world. And another, with many more accessories and cheaper glass, etc.
You missed adding Fujifilm mirrorless cameras into the list, Bigly!
All these differences are minimal for most users and indifferent at the end of the day.
Go for the best deal you see at buying time, for your budget.
Anyone want to donate $3k to me? :-D
Seems like a decent deal if you can make use of the rewards. I have a a7iii so I'm skipping the a7IV and hopefully picking up the a7V late next year or early 2027.
*edit*
Also be mindful of the CB sites having a different rate (much lower) for marketplace sellers vs direct from Macy's
