Up to 16-stop dynamic range
Up to 16 stops of dynamic range at low sensitivities support HDR processing. Outstanding resolution and high sensitivity capture stunning imagery throughout the ISO 100-32000 range. Noise in night scenes is also reduced.
Stable, accurate auto white balance
The Visible Light + IR Sensor uses deep learning-based illumination estimation to achieve stable, accurate auto white balance under any lighting conditions. Together, they enable natural color reproduction in a wide variety of scenes.
Lifelike rendering of wide dynamic range scenes
The updated D-Range Optimizer (DRO) balances bright highlights and dark shadows. It offers a wider range of strength settings, up to Lv8. At higher levels, DRO lifts shadow areas in strong backlight, delivering more natural-looking portrait shots.
Up t o 8.5-step central and 7.0-step peripheral stabilization
Superb stabilization performance maximizes resolution, preventing blur-induced degradation. Stabilization is even more effective with compatible lenses, and telephoto lens shake is also effectively suppressed.
Upgraded format options with lightweight RAW
A [Compressed (HQ)] RAW format has been added to the existing format, providing lightweight RAW files that enable continuous shooting while maintaining high image quality.
Three composite RAW modes
[Pixel Shift Multi] mode creates composites with extremely high resolution, [NR Shooting) produces low-noise images, and [Shooting for HDR] captures images with a wide dynamic range.
Extended RAW processing uses deep learning for enhanced quality
Extended RAW offers two image-enhancing functions: [Extended Hi-Res], which boosts the pixel count of captured images by a factor of 4 to approximately 270 MP, and [Extended NR], which provides high noise reduction at full resolution.
Enhanced speed & tracking
Blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30 fps with full AF/AE
Shoot bursts at up to 30 fps at full 66.8 MP resolution, with AF/AE tracking and no viewfinder blackout. Up to 60 AF/AE calculations per second4 effortlessly track even complex subject movement. Plus, with the upgraded BIONZ XR2 processing engine and CFexpress Type A card support, capture up to 215 JPG and 65 Compressed (HQ) RAW images continuously.
Pre-Capture for key moments before shutter release
Capture the decisive moment — even after it happens. Half-press the shutter button to set focus, then fully press to record a burst of images from 0.03 to 1 second after the initial half-press.
Temporarily boost speed while shooting bursts
During continuous burst shooting, press an assigned custom button to change the shooting speed — for example, from 10 fps to 30 fps — when the key moment approaches. This feature can be used even while shooting single frames.
Real-time Recognition AF+ for more tenacious tracking
The α7R VI utilizes the latest human pose estimation technology for improved recognition and tracking. It accurately maintains focus on the desired subject in a group or when a distant subject is small in the frame, even when the subject is moving.
Improved subject recognition performance
Recognition of distant animals and birds has been significantly improved. Choose from Human, Animal, Bird, Insect, Car/Train, or Airplane mode, or let Auto detect the subject type. Even when Subject Recognition is turned off, Sony's original algorithm still processes multiple data points to ensure reliable tracking.
Approx. 94% AF coverage for extra framing freedom
Fast readout and processing deliver notably improved AF. 759 phase-detection points cover about 94% of the image area, enabling precise focusing for stills, even when the subject is small in the frame.
Precise AF in low light
Enjoy reliable AF at light levels as low as EV-6 or EV-11 with Bright Monitoring enabled. The AF can also be limited to long-range shooting for low-light distant scenes.
Flexible focus area settings
Choose from XL, L, M, S, and XS spot focus area sizes, or create a custom vertical focus area. The XS setting helps focus on the subject when objects are in the foreground.
Movie functionality
Full-frame 4K 60p video without cropping
Equipped with an upgraded image sensor and processing engine, the α7R VI is capable of 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) 60p and 4K 120p recording at high frame rates without cropping. 4:2:2 color sampling and 10-bit depth further support high video quality.
8K movies for spectacular resolution
8K 30p movies can be recorded in XAVC HS format with 8.2K oversampling, offering spectacular resolution. This is further enhanced by precision AF performance, along with natural gradations and colors. 8K also supports 4:2:2 10-bit recording.
Dual Gain Shooting for enhanced editing flexibility
Leveraging the sensor's tonal range, Dual Gain Shooting delivers wider latitude with detailed shadows, low noise, and smooth video gradations for enhanced editing flexibility.
S-Log3 supports post-production workflows
The S-Log3 gamma curve maintains smooth gradations for more effective post-processing. S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3. Cine color spaces are supported, and S-Cinetone and imported user LUTs offer a finished look without grading.
In-camera audio processing
Whether recording via the internal or an external noise-reduction microphone, Audio Noise Reduction — with Noise Cut and Wind — uses digital processing to reduce background, wind, and lens noise.
32-bit float audio recording for editing flexibility
The optional XLR-A4 XLR Adaptor enables 9 6 kHz/32-bit float audio recording. This delivers a wide dynamic range via the Multi Interface (MI) Shoe, which supports a digital audio interface. This high-quality audio offers greater flexibility during editing.
Real-time Recognition AF+ lets you focus on composition
Pose estimation technology for human subjects provides reliable recognition for both movies and stills. Choose from Human, Animal, Bird, Insect, Car/Train, or Airplane mode, or let Auto detect the subject type.
Enhanced stabilization
An enhanced developed stabilization unit expands the roll direction compensation range by up to 2x, effectively reducing handheld roll shake. Select Dynamic active Mode for 30% stronger compensation and steadier handheld video.
Breathing compensation for smooth movie imagery
Sony's original Clear Image Zoom technology stabilizes the angle of view when focusing, minimizing breathing. Compensation can also be applied via the Catalyst BrowseTM and Catalyst Prepare applications or the Catalyst Prepare Plugin during post-production.
