The Quattro was introduced 2 years after the A7R which is quite a large difference as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras have different body design with the Sigma Quattro being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Sony A7R being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go right into a full comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the Quattro matches up vs the A7R for portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Sigma sd Quattro & Sony Alpha A7R. The whole galleries are viewable at Sigma Quattro Gallery & Sony A7R Gallery.

When you are aiming to carry around your camera regularly, you will want to think about its weight and proportions.

Typically, it can be difficult to picture the contrast between sensor sizes only by checking a spec sheet. The picture below may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Quattro and A7R.

As you can see, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The Quattro using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh more difficult and the Sony A7R will give more detail using its extra 7 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more modern Quattro should have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
