With groundbreaking performance in both still and movie recording, the α7 IV is the ideal hybrid, providing breathtaking imagery along with on-the-spot delivery and distribution. The α7 IV is a camera designed to bring to life the artistic visions of today’s creators.

Basic has never been this good

Prepare to be inspired. The α7 IV’s true-to-life resolution and remarkable AI-powered autofocus complement a range of world-class features at the cutting edge of imaging technology. 

Beautiful images with reduced noise

Building on the capabilities of the back-illuminated image sensor the BIONZ XR engine reveals even higher subjective resolution combined with exquisite detail and texture even in medium- and high-sensitivity ranges. Impressively low levels of noise are achieved throughout the standard range of ISO 100-51200 (expandable to ISO 50-204800 for stills and ISO 100-102400 for movies).

Wide, 15-stop dynamic range

Taking advantage of the camera’s full dynamic range of 15 stops, the α7 IV uses image data from the sensor’s 33.0 megapixels to render remarkably delicate detail in landscapes and scenery. This stunning image quality is based on Sony’s unrivalled experience at the front lines of both still-image and movie creation.

Improved Real-time Eye AF 

• Keeping the targeted eye in focus so you can concentrate on composition 

The high speed of the latest image-processing engine provides a significant boost to Real-time Eye AF performance, even when the subject is looking up, down or sideways. It is also possible to use Touch Tracking to initiate Real-time Tracking of any subject in the frame, simultaneously initiating Real-time Eye AF if an eye is detected, simply by touching the screen. 

• Fast, accurate focus for difficult animal shots

By setting the camera’s subject detection type to “Animal” in advance, you can automatically detect and track an animal’s eyes, for greater success in both wildlife shots and photos and movies of your pets at home. Animal-eye detection has been improved, with reliable tracking and accurate focus even when the animal’s face is upside down.

• Bird-eye detection supported for both still shots and movies

For the first time in the α series, bird-eye detection is available in movies as well as still shots—simply preset the subject to “bird”. The camera’s astonishing speed and precision allow automatic tracking of a specific bird, whether it’s perched somewhere or in flight, keeping the eye in steady focus despite any fast and unpredictable movements.

7K oversampling for beautifully expressive, richly detailed images 

When recording 4K movies at up to 30p, full-frame 7K oversampling is possible, resulting in high-resolution, highly detailed 4K. Select the mode that best suits your purpose, and let the camera deliver.

Next-level image quality with 10-bit 4:2:2 recording 

Make in-camera recordings with the amazing richness of 10-bit depth and 4:2:2 colour sampling, with either Long GOP or All-Intra frame encoding, for far greater flexibility in image grading, post-processing and compositing.
