Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Nikon D780, which was introduced in January 2020 is a Advanced DSLR camera with a 25.0MP Full frame sensor whereas Sony A7 III, which was introduced in February 2018 is a Pro Mirrorless camera with a 24.0MP Full frame sensor. There is 22 months difference between D780 and A7 III so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger D780, especially in sensor tech.
Despite some fundamental differences of these two body types, Mirrorless cameras are becoming serious alternatives to DSLR cameras thanks to their size/weight advantages and recent improvements in their focus speeds , which makes this comparison even more interesting.
Here is a brief look at the main features of the Nikon D780 and Sony A7 III before getting into our more detailed comparison.
Let's read on in the following sections in order to better understand in detail how the Nikon D780 and Sony A7 III compare and hopefully end up with enough arguments to decide which one is better for you.
