The Sony A7 V is a full-frame mirrorless camera engineered for photographers and videographers who demand flagship-level performance without flagship-level compromise. At its core sits a 33MP Partially-Stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor paired with the new BIONZ XR2 processor and a dedicated AI unit, delivering 16 stops of dynamic range, a native ISO range of 100–51200, and blackout-free 30 fps continuous shooting — all in a single, versatile body.
From AI-powered 759-point PDAF with Real-Time Tracking to 7.5-stop 5-axis in-body stabilization, 4K 60p 10-bit video with S-Log3 and S-Cinetone, and a 3.68m-dot EVF refreshing at 120 fps, the Sony A7 V is purpose-built to handle fast action, cinematic video, and creative content creation — making it one of the most well-rounded mirrorless cameras available today.
