61.0 Megapixel Exmor RTM image sensor in full-frame
The noise reduction of the back-illuminated sensor, the seamless on-chip lenses, anti-reflective coating, the elimination of the optical low-pass filter in front of the sensor, and other original technologies enable high resolution, high sensitivity, low noise, and a wide dynamic range.
BIONZ XRTM image processor
The latest BIONZ XR image processor reduces latency and increases processing power for photo and video capture. The result is natural gradations, realistic colors, low noise, brilliant image quality, and fast operation.
High sensitivity and wide dynamic range with low noise
Sensitivity settings from ISO 100-32000 for photos and videos through optimized imaging technology. The dynamic range at low sensitivity has 15 stops for smooth, realistic gradations from deep shadows to highlights.
Consistently precise exposure and color reproduction
The optimized AI processing unit achieves optimal white balance even in shadows. Skin tones, foliage, and other materials are reproduced in natural colors with lifelike gradations, such as light falloff in portraits.
Advanced optical 5-axis image stabilization
The precise image stabilization, modern gyroscopic sensors, and optimized algorithms effectively detect and correct camera shake. A fantastic 7.0-stop advantage for handheld shots.
Pixel Shift Multi Shooting for variable conditions
Pixel Shift Multi Shooting allows for images with varying pixel counts through precision control of the integrated image stabilization, which can then be composited on a PC for brilliant resolution in a single image. Compositions from 16 images with approximately 240.8 million pixels (19,008 x 12,672 pixels) can be generated from data with about 963.2 million pixels.
Anti-Flicker System
Flicker caused by artificial light is automatically detected, and the timing and speed of the mechanical or electronic shutter are precisely controlled to minimize this effect.
Selectable RAW image sizes and HEIF
Three sizes (L/M/S) of lossless RAW compression include M and S outputs at the same resolution (26 MP/15 MP) for full-frame and APS-C, for seamless workflows. The Light mode for JPEG and HEIF produces images that are easy to share.
Creative Look: various expression possibilities
Ten customizable Creative Looks allow creatives to create different "looks" directly on the camera and capture moods in photos and videos precisely.
Lenses for maximum resolution with the Alpha 7CR
The range of premium E-Mount lenses from Sony includes over 70 models, including the G Master™ series with stunning resolution and bokeh, as well as the G Lens™ series with excellent image quality and smooth bokeh. The compact, lightweight lenses fully exploit the potential for resolution and reproduction of Sony's popular E-Mount cameras. Perfectly suited for E-Mount cameras, they become compact, mobile systems for a wide range of photo and video applications.
AI processor for optimized subject recognition
The AI processing unit supports human recognition through learned data about human shapes and postures, as well as the recognition of non-human subjects like animals, insects, and vehicles. The performance of AF with detection and tracking in real-time is thus improved, making subject recognition and tracking through fast hybrid AF much more precise and reliable.
Classification of human poses using a skeleton model
The new AI processing unit of the Alpha 7CR utilizes subject shape data for accurate motion detection, significantly enhancing eye recognition in humans. The technology for classifying human poses recognizes not only eyes but also head and body positions with high precision. This allows for focusing on a subject that is turned away from the camera or whose face is partially obscured by a helmet or sunglasses.
Recognition of many different subjects
AI processing enables the recognition of various subjects, such as the eyes of an even larger number of grazing and small animals and birds. The new combined animal/bird setting makes switching unnecessary. Just like insect heads, cars/trains and airplanes are recognized in full or at the front end.
Continuous real-time tracking
AI-based real-time tracking can be activated through subject selection and half-pressing the shutter. The camera automatically captures the subject. This allows the user to focus on image composition and framing. Subject recognition and reliability have been significantly improved for further shooting situations.
Wide-area high-density AF reliably captures subjects
The BIONZ XR Engine and updated algorithms provide significantly improved performance of the fast hybrid autofocus. Up to 693 phase detection points cover approximately 79% of the image area. This allows even small subjects to be captured precisely. The Alpha 7CR combines phase detection and contrast detection AF, focusing quickly and steadily even in simple AF (AF-S).
High-precision AF down to EV -4.0 even in dark scenes
The latest AF algorithm enables AF shooting in low light conditions, down to EV -4.0 (AF-S, ISO 100 equivalent, F2.0 lens) even in dark scenes and indoors, offering a useful focus priority mode.
Full-time DMF
When shooting photos with AF-C or AF-S autofocus, you can switch directly to manual focus mode at any time by turning the lens focus ring. This makes it easy to change focus to another subject.
Focus bracketing for the perfect shot
The camera automatically captures up to 299 images with shifted focus points at defined intervals and sequences. You then choose the perfect image. In post-processing, you can creatively compose images with incredible depth of field.
AF/AE continuous shooting at up to 8 fps
Continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking is possible at up to 8 fps with mechanical shutter or 7 fps with silent shooting. This captures even brief movements or changes in expression in detail. The performance of the BIONZ XR Engine allows for continuous shooting of over 1,000 JPEG images to capture important moments.
Mobility for HD video recording
The Alpha 7CR offers detailed 4K quality in video recording with 6.2K oversampling in conjunction with the mobility needed for gimbal or drone shooting. Additionally, it features S-Cinetone™ for cinematic look, log shooting, real-time tracking with optimized subject recognition, active mode image stabilization, breathing compensation, and many other improvements.
4K 60/50p recording in full-frame
The latest BIONZ XR processor and revised algorithms provide significantly improved video quality. In addition to focus support, the optimized AI processing unit of the camera is utilized to enable precise white balance even when the subject is in shadow. Skin tones, foliage, and other materials are reproduced in consistently natural colors at almost every exposure, and gradations such as light falloff in portraits are particularly lifelike.
6.2K video oversampling for impressive 4K images
4K video recording is possible in full-frame and Super 35 mm. With full pixel readout without pixel binning, approximately 2.6 times the necessary data can be captured in high resolution and detail with minimal moiré and aliasing effects compressed to 4K.
S-Cinetone effortlessly provides a cinematic look
Sony's S-Cinetone Picture Profile ensures more faithful color reproduction and skin tones, with natural mid-tones for healthy-looking skin as well as soft colors and great highlights that create a cinematic look without color correction.
Log recording and LUT
The Alpha 7CR features an S-Log3 gamma curve to maximize dynamic range of over 14 stops. Settings for the S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3.Cine color spaces provide more control in post-production. Selected LUTs (lookup tables) allow for a preview of the processed recordings.
Active mode image stabilization for handheld video recording
The active mode enables precise stabilization for video recording through innovative gyroscopic sensors and optimized algorithms. Camera shake is detected and compensated for by compatible objects working together with the camera for more stabilization.
Real-time tracking also supports focusing in video recording
Significant improvement in real-time tracking performance through AI, which recognizes, tracks, and focuses on the eyes of a subject.
