Sony a7 II E-mount Mirrorless Camera

Stability for all

Breathtaking image quality meets unrivaled shooting freedom in the a7 II, the world’s first1 full-frame camera with 5-axis image stabilization. Discover full-frame, palm-sized perfection and stability for all!

New handheld freedom

Now you can fully express your vision with full-frame quality and cutting-edge camera shake compensation compatible with wide-ranging lenses.

5-axis image stabilization

World’s first in a full-frame camera

Dramatically expand your range of expression by compensating for five types of camera shake while shooting still images and movies.

Say goodbye to five types of camera shake!

5-axis image stabilization lets you zoom, snap close-ups and capture night scenes with greater clarity. Compensation is equivalent to using a 4.5-step faster shutter speed.

Pitch and yaw compensation

Compensate for commonly experienced pitch and yaw shake at long focal lengths.

Horizontal and vertical shift compensation

Compensate for X- and Y-axis shift shake at high magnification (during macrophotography, etc.).

Roll compensation

Compensate for roll shake on the Z-axis during long exposures. Most in-lens systems cannot compensate for roll shake.

Compatibility with wide-ranging mountable lenses

Use your favorite lenses without camera shake.

Enjoy unparalleled handheld shooting freedom with more of your favorite lenses. The short flange-back distance in the E-mount a7 II contributes to broad lens compatibility.

Automatic optimization for every a lens

Your a lenses will always perform their best.

The a7 II analyzes information from your E-mount and A-mount lenses to optimize depiction performance and 5-axis image stabilization for the particular lens you mount.
