Micron-level adjustment of the positions of the top-quality Zeiss 35mm Sonnar T* lens and its focal plane, made possible by the integrated fixed-lens design, along with the advanced full-frame 61 megapixel back-illuminated CMOS image sensor and the latest BIONZ XR image processing engine, deliver stunning optical and imaging performance while achieving ultra-compact size

Powerful BIONZ XR image processing engine

BIONZ XR delivers the full potential of the image sensor, rendering details and textures with outstanding fidelity. Processing is fast too, so the camera responds instantly to user control.

Creative Look modes for expanded in-camera expression

Creative Look parameter combinations can be used as presets or customized via eight adjustable parameters. There are now 12 presets, including the film-style looks FL, FL2 and FL3, providing a wide range of variations in colour, colour depth, brightness, contrast and sharpness.

Instantly switch between three angles of view with Step Crop Shooting

The Step Crop Shooting function allows switching between 35mm (60MP), 50mm (29MP), and 70mm (15MP) equivalents with a simple one-touch operation. Even when you can’t approach the subject, you can shoot at 70mm equivalent while maintaining a high resolution of 15MP.

High sensitivity, low noise and outstanding resolution

The standard ISO range is 100–32000 for both stills and movies, expandable to ISO 102400 for stills. Dynamic range at lower sensitivities is an impressive 15 stops that translates to smooth, natural gradations.

A wide variety of subjects accurately recognized

The AI processing unit supports [Human], [Animal], [Bird], [Insect], [Car/Train] and [Airplane] recognition6. The same wide-ranging subject recognition is provided for stills and movies, and an [Auto] mode simplifies operation by allowing the camera to automatically select the subject type. The [Auto] mode reliably takes care of subject selection in most cases, leaving the user free to concentrate on composition and shooting.

Wide, high-density AF reliably captures subjects

693 phase detection points in a high-density focal plane phase-detection AF system cover approximately 78% of the image area when shooting stills, achieving accurate focus even when the subject is small. Sony’s Fast Hybrid AF system combines the speed and tracking capabilities of phase-detection AF with the precision of contrast AF.
