I read alot of people complaining about battery life on the A7 and A7r, up until now I had always just thought it's the world smallest mirrorless camera and trade offs have to be made so just buy an extra battery and shut up, but yesterday I did a real test studio shoot sending pictures to an ipad over wifi, the camera was on most of the time all morning for 4 hours, I took 410 shots and still had 20% left.
To me that's pretty impressive for these tiny batteries with a camera in Live view mode and sending pictures over wifi.
So now it makes me wonder what all the complainers are doing to get such crappy battery life, what are your experiences?
It seems obvious to me we can't expect the same battery life as a DSLR that isn't in Live view all the time and has a bigger battery.
