Sony A7 III possible damage

[Thomas C.]

Hello everyone

Yesterday my nephew grabbed my A7 III that I hadn't tidied and shook it pretty hardly. It didn't fell down. can this cause internal damage? (Ibis sensor or anything else?)

Thanks

Shoot a photo.  Is it sharp?  If so, you are all set.  Dropping or banging cameras tend to do more damage.  Keep a lens shade on and even an UV filter to protect the front lens element.  Lens shades can bend and absorb lots of damaging hits and save the lens.

This is a mirror-less camera where only moving part is the shutter. There is no way it should be damaged because of shaking. I have dropped and physically injured my camera many times. Still functions. That is the part of paying so much for this camera. The magnesium casing is built to sustain a variable amount of damage.
 

Yes you should respect the camera ( because they are fall fragile ) but shaking should not take it out so easy.
