"You’d be forgiven for thinking that the Sony Alpha A9 II is only an incremental update over it predecessor. However, every single one of the 43 little bits and bobs that are different about the A9 II make the new camera a much more compelling option for sports photographers and photojournalists over the older model." - Tech Radar, read the full review here.

"The Sony A9 II is the fastest, most ferocious full-frame sports camera we've ever used. Its blistering speed and autofocus performance are matched only by its phenomenal connectivity, which promises to be a game changer for pro shooters." - Digital Camera World, read the full review here.

"The new Sony Alpha A9 II is faster, more refined, more durable and more versatile than the two-year-old A9 camera that it succeeds, making it simply a better tool for the professional sports photographers and photojournalists that it's even more clearly aimed at. With Sony busy adding new, longer lenses in the two years since the original A9 was released, it's never been a better time to use a Sony Alpha camera for professional use, giving Canon and Nikon even more to worry about." - Photography Blog, read the full review here.

"The Sony A9 II is an obvious pick — possibly the pick — for sports, news and action. Nothing is as fast, it has an AF system to match, and it's also silent. Sony is out to kill Nikon and Canon, and this certainly helps, at only 2/3 the price of the competitive DSLRs." - Ken Rockwell, read the full review here.
