Redefine basic

The technology to capture your vision

Full-frame partially stacked Exmor RS™ CMOS sensor

An enhanced partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS image sensor features 33.0 megapixels and high-speed circuitry above and below the sensing layer. Readout is approximately 4.5x faster providing a maximum shutter speed of 1/16000 sec., blackout-free bursts at up to 30fps with full AF/AE tracking, and video recording at 4K 120p. It delivers up to an unprecedented 16 stops of dynamic range with smooth gradations.

BIONZ XR2™ with integrated AI processing unit

The BIONZ XR2 processing engine which integrates the AI processing unit of the latest α™ series delivers vast improvements in image and sound quality, and overall operation. It incorporates AI-based Real-time Recognition AF and Real-time Tracking, plus accurate, stable color reproduction. In an upgrade from its predecessor, the α7 V includes a lightweight RAW format, while user interface, networking, and file management functions have all been refined.

Lifelike imagery

Excellent image quality

The new 33.0 effective megapixels sensor and BIONZ XR2 processing engine deliver up to 16 stops of dynamic range. Smooth gradations from shadows to highlights enable highly effective HDR processing when needed, and effective noise reduction applied at all sensitivities achieves high resolution throughout the ISO 100–51200 still and movie range.

Deep learning-based light source estimation

Enjoy improved auto white balance (AWB) performance, thanks to deep learning technology for light source color estimation. The α7 V offers more accurate, stable white balance in settings that can be challenging for conventional AWB systems, such as those that include a mix of skin tones, vegetation, shade, and more.

Composite RAW support

Composite RAW shooting captures multiple RAW images that can be composited on a computer. The enhanced [NR Shooting] setting produces low-noise images while maintaining high resolution even at mid to high sensitivities. [Shooting for HDR] captures high dynamic range, with options for the simultaneous capture of 4, 8, or 16 images at 30fps.

[1] Composite RAW [Shooting for HDR]

Extended RAW Processing offers enhanced RAW development

The Imaging Edge Desktop application now includes an Extended RAW Processing feature that allows you to take full advantage of the large amount of information in RAW image files for enhanced RAW development, particularly with moving subjects. Use the [Extended NR] for extremely low noise while maintaining full resolution or try [Extended Hi-Res] for 4x the normal pixel count and reduced noise.

5-axis optical stabilization

An advanced optical stabilization unit, gyro sensors, and an enhanced algorithm accurately detect and correct image shake. Up to 7.5-step central and 6.5-step peripheral stabilization allow handheld shooting with no need to boost sensitivity. Use compatible lenses with built-in stabilization for even more effective shake suppression, including when shooting at telephoto focal lengths.

More efficient, lightweight RAW format

A lightweight RAW format achieves high image quality in smaller files that are easier to manage. The [Compressed (HQ)] format provides even greater compression in lightweight RAW files while prioritizing image quality, and the [Compressed] format allows for extended shooting.

Enhanced subject recognition and tracking

Real-time Recognition AF: Human pose estimation

AI processing in the new BIONZ XR2 processing engine improves recognition by approximately 30% over the α7 IV. Human pose estimation technology uses detailed form and pose data to achieve reliable human eye recognition as well as body and head position, even with challenging subjects. The camera can also recognize multiple subjects, meaning it can pick out and track the desired subject in a group.

Real-time Recognition AF: Wider subject recognition

Real-time Recognition AF supports [Human], [Animal], [Bird], [Insect], [Car/Train] and [Airplane] recognition, and an [Auto] mode can automatically detect the subject type. The α7 V offers about 30% improved animal recognition and about 50% improved bird recognition. It now also recognizes the eyes of some grazing and small animals in addition to the eyes, heads and bodies of dogs, cats, and similarly featured animals.

Reliable Real-time Tracking

AI-based Real-time Tracking accurately focuses on and tracks the selected subject when the shutter button is half-pressed. If the subject cannot be recognized or subject recognition AF is OFF, Sony’s original algorithm processes color, pattern, and spatial data at high speed for reliable focus and tracking. If [Touch Tracking] is engaged, simply touch a subject on the monitor to instantly select it for tracking.

High-density 759-point focal plane phase-detection AF

759 AF points in a high-density focal plane phase-detection AF system cover approximately 94% of the image area for precise focusing. The BIONZ XR2 engine processes the large amount of data from the image sensor in real time to ensure ideal focus even in challenging situations, such as when shooting small subjects or night scenes.

Flexible focus area settings

The α7 V now offers XS, S, M, L, and XL focus area spot sizes. The XS size can make focusing easier when foreground objects such as branches are in the way. It is also possible to create a custom focus area of a specified size and even a custom vertical aspect ratio, enabling you to optimize focusing for a wide variety of subjects and scenes. Simply set the shape and size via the touch-sensitive monitor.

Precise AF in low light

The latest AF algorithms achieve high AF precision down to light levels as low as EV-4.0 in AF-S mode (ISO 100 equivalent, F2.0 lens) so that AF is precise and reliable even in low light.

Speed

Blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30fps

High-speed bursts at up to 30fps with uncompromised AF/AE tracking are now possible when using the electronic shutter, and there is no viewfinder blackout when shooting stills. Up to 60 AF/AE calculations per second mean that you can capture fleeting moments with confidence, even when shooting fast, unpredictable action or portraits where expressions can change in an instant.

Pre-Capture for those pre-shutter release moments

Capture that decisive moment, even if it’s in the past. With this feature, half-pressing the shutter button to set focus enables the camera to capture a series of images, starting from up to one second before the shutter button is fully deployed.

Speed boost for critical action shots

Use one-button Continuous Shooting Speed Boost to temporarily change the continuous shooting speed at any time while shooting a continuous burst—making sure you never miss that key moment. This function is best used when you can roughly predict the timing of the desired shot, and it’s now available even while shooting single frames.

Smooth, detailed video

7K oversampled 4K 60p recording with full pixel readout and no pixel binning

The new BIONZ XR2 processor and Exmor RS sensor enable full pixel readout with no pixel binning when recording full-frame. This allows 3.3x the data required for 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) to be compressed into spectacularly detailed 4K 60p images with minimal moiré and jaggies.

In-camera audio noise reduction

The Audio Noise Reduction function digitally reduces continuous noise. Working with the camera’s built-in microphone and external microphones, this function can dramatically reduce wind noise and other continuous environmental noise, including mechanical noise from a power zoom lens. Choose between two settings: [Wind NR] and generic [Noise Cut].

High frame rate 4K recording at up to 120p

Internal 4K recording at up to 120p makes it possible to produce up to 5x slow motion video with outstanding 4K resolution. Frame rates up to 240fps are available when recording at Full HD resolution, allowing up to 10x slow motion playback (24p recording in S&Q mode) for detailed sports analysis and more. A variety of formats are supported, including 4:2:2 10-bit recording, Long GOP, and All Intra.

Stable Active Mode handheld shooting

Make the most of smooth handheld movie shooting thanks to Active Mode optical image stabilization, which now supports 4K 120p recording. The stabilization unit, gyro sensors, and image stabilization algorithms enable the camera to precisely detect and correct for movement. Stabilization is even more effective when the body is used with a compatible stabilized lens.

Extreme stabilization with Dynamic active Mode

The Dynamic active Mode adds electronic stabilization to the optical stabilization system for even greater effect. This improves stabilization approximately 30% more than just Active Mode, making it possible to shoot smooth, stable images even when running around with the camera.

Designed for creative possibilities

4-axis monitor maximizes shooting flexibility

The 4-axis multi-angle monitor adjusts upward by 98°, downward by 40°, and sideways by 180°, and when open, it can rotate up to 270º. Its 3.2-type 2.1-million-dot (3:2 aspect ratio) touch sensitive display panel has a wide color gamut and provides clear viewing even in bright conditions. [Monitor Low Bright] reduces brightness and battery drain when the camera has not been used for a pre-settable amount of time.

Durable magnesium alloy chassis

A lightweight, high-rigidity magnesium alloy is used for the top cover, front cover, internal frame, and rear cover. The grip and front cover are manufactured as a single unit for high rigidity, while the mount is attached by six screws for extra strength. This provides maximum durability on shoots requiring a variety of large, heavy lenses, like super-telephoto lenses.

3.68 million-dot Quad-VGA OLED electronic viewfinder

The 3.68 million-dot (approx.) Quad-VGA OLED electronic viewfinder delivers clear viewing to ensure clarity in the widest possible range of shooting environments. You can adjust brightness and colour temperature for optimum viewing in any situation and set the finder frame rate to [Standard] (60fps) or [High] (120fps).

Dust- and moisture-resistant design

Refinements throughout the camera’s body achieve outstanding dust and moisture resistance. External seams and the battery cover feature a sealed structure that effectively prevents intrusion of dust and moisture, maximizing reliability even in challenging outdoor conditions.

Effective heat dissipation

Effective heat dissipation allows 4K 60p 4:2:0 8bit video to be recorded continuously for around 90 minutes. A unique Σ (sigma) shaped graphite component built into the image stabilization unit allows the image sensor, a major source of heat inside the camera body, to move freely during image stabilization while conducting heat away for efficient heat dissipation.

Designed for comfort

The α7 V has been refined for improved hold and manageability to minimize fatigue, particularly when using heavy telephoto lenses or shooting for long periods of time. The grip fits comfortably in the palm of the hand while the location and angle of the shutter button have been carefully designed for effortless access.

Two USB Type-C® ports

Two USB Type-C ports support USB Power Delivery (PD). PORT 1 supports SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps (USB 3.2) for high-speed backups and PC remote connection, and PORT 2 supports Hi-Speed USB 480 Mbps (USB 2.0) for USB communication.

Excellent battery life

The α7 V can shoot up to 630 stills per charge when using the viewfinder or 750 stills per charge when using the LCD monitor.

Info display adapts to horizontal and vertical orientation

Shooting info shown on the monitor and in the electronic viewfinder automatically matches camera orientation for maximum shooting comfort.

CFexpress Type A memory card support

Card slot 1 (upper slot) supports CFexpress Type A and SDXC/SDHC UHS-II/UHS-I memory cards, allowing high-speed recording of large volumes of image data.

Fast, stable connectivity

Advanced Wi-Fi for wireless transfers and remote tethering

Built-in Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11ax) with 2×2 MIMO support provides high-speed wireless communication that has been significantly improved over the α7 IV. Communication on the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands offers maximum speed and stability with minimum interference for news and sports shooters who need to deliver immediately via FTP, as well as for studio environments.

Easy live streaming

The α7 V offers live streaming at up to 4K 30p via a direct USB (UVC/UAC) computer connection and via a wired or wireless LAN network. When streaming via LAN, it’s possible to broadcast 4K (3840 x 2160) 30p video while simultaneously recording the same content to an internal memory card. RTMP, RTMPS and SRT protocols are supported.

Creators’ App

A smartphone application for file transfer, remote shooting, cloud storage management and more.

Imaging Edge Desktop

A desktop application that enhances the quality and efficiency of production work such as remote shooting and RAW development.

Monitor and Control

A mobile app for visual content creators that enables wireless monitoring, high-precision exposure adjustment and focus control via smartphone or tablets, or a Mac.

Camera Authenticity Solution (paid service)

Addressing concerns about fake images generated by AI, this system verifies image/video authenticity using unique meta-information from Sony cameras. This enables confirmation that an image was taken with a specific camera, accurately identifies real subjects, and ensures transparency in editing history per the C2PA format.

Environmental consideration and accessibility

Recycled materials in cameras and digital camera products

Our Road to Zero plan aims to achieve a zero environmental footprint by 2050. We use a fully recyclable, durable material, SORPLAS™, as much as possible to reduce environmental stress without compromising performance or functionality. More than 20% of the α7 V is made from recyclable plastic. Additionally, Sony Group manufacturing facilities run on 100% renewable energy.

Recyclable non-plastic packaging materials

We are working toward the use of non-plastic packaging materials that provide ample protection against shock and impact. We ship the α7 V in a plastic-free package made of an Original Blended Material that can be recycled as paper. We also use plant-based non-woven fabrics product bags to further reduce the plastic use and minimize environmental stress.

Greater accessibility for all users

We want everyone to enjoy shooting with the α7 V. It comes with specialized accessibility features, such as a Screen Reade that reads most menu screen text aloud, a menu magnifier, and a [Mode Dial Control Set] function. Other advanced features like AI-based Real-time Recognition AF and intuitive touch operation for subject tracking also support a wide range of users.

FEATURES:

Full-frame partially stacked Exmor RS™ CMOS sensor with 33.0 effective megapixels	Featuring the latest technology, the α7 V is equipped with a partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS image sensor featuring high-speed circuitry above and below the sensing layer. Readout is approximately 4.5x faster than the α7 IV, providing a maximum shutter speed of 1/16000 sec., blackout-free bursts at up to 30fps with full AF/AE tracking, and video recording at 4K 120p. The advanced sensor technology delivers up to an unprecedented 16 stops of dynamic range with smooth gradations.
BIONZ XR2™ with integrated AI processing unit	The BIONZ XR2 processing engine which integrates the AI processing unit of the latest α™ series delivers vast improvements in image and sound quality, and overall operation. It incorporates AI-based Real-time Recognition AF and Real-time Tracking, plus accurate, stable color reproduction. In an upgrade from its predecessor, the α7 V includes a lightweight RAW format, while user interface, networking, and file management functions have all been refined.
Excellent image quality	The new 33.0 effective megapixels sensor and BIONZ XR2 processing engine deliver up to 16 stops of dynamic range. Smooth gradations from shadows to highlights enable highly effective HDR processing when needed, and effective noise reduction applied at all sensitivities achieves high resolution throughout the ISO 100–51200 still and movie range.
Creative Look creates visual moods in-camera	The Creative Look function makes it easy to create visual moods in-camera. 12 presets are provided, including [FL2] and [FL3] selections. The presets can be used as they are or edited to create custom looks. Use seven parameters to adjust contrast, saturation, highlights, shadows and more while viewing the results on the monitor display. Custom Looks can be saved for later use.
Deep learning-based light source estimation for accurate white balance	Enjoy improved auto white balance (AWB) performance thanks to deep learning technology for light source color estimation. The α7 V offers more accurate, stable white balance in settings that can be challenging for conventional AWB systems, such as those that include a mix of skin tones, vegetation, shade and more. [1] Shot on α7 IV [2] Shot on α7 V
Composite RAW support	Composite RAW shooting automatically captures multiple RAW images that can then be transferred to a computer and composited. The enhanced [NR Shooting] setting produces low-noise images while maintaining high resolution even at mid to high sensitivities. [Shooting for HDR] captures high dynamic range, with options for the simultaneous capture of 4, 8, or 16 images at 30fps. [1] Composite RAW [Shooting for HDR]
Extended RAW Processing offers enhanced RAW development	The Imaging Edge Desktop application now includes an Extended RAW Processing feature that allows you to take full advantage of the large amount of information in RAW image files for enhanced RAW development, particularly with moving subjects. Use the [Extended NR] for extremely low noise while maintaining full resolution or try [Extended Hi-Res] for 4x the normal pixel count and reduced noise.
5-axis optical stabilization for up to 7.5-step central and 6.5-step peripheral stabilization	An advanced optical stabilization unit, gyro sensors, and algorithm accurately detect and correct image shake. Up to 7.5-step central and 6.5-step peripheral stabilization allow handheld shooting without the need to boost sensitivity. Take advantage of compatible lenses for better stabilization, with the camera effectively suppressing shake even when shooting at telephoto focal lengths. [1] Yaw [2] Roll [3] Pitch
More efficient, lightweight RAW format	A lightweight RAW format achieves high image quality in smaller files that are easier to manage. The [Compressed (HQ)] format provides even greater compression in lightweight RAW files while prioritizing image quality, and the [Compressed] format allows for extended shooting.
Real-time Recognition AF: Human pose estimation technology	AI processing in the new BIONZ XR2 processing engine improves recognition by approximately 30% over the α7 IV. Human pose estimation technology uses detailed form and pose data to achieve reliable human eye recognition as well as body and head position, even with challenging subjects. Multiple subjects can also be recognized, making it possible to track the desired subject.
Reliable Real-time Tracking	AI-based Real-time Tracking accurately focuses on and tracks the selected subject when the shutter button is half-pressed. If the subject cannot be recognized or subject recognition AF is OFF, Sony’s original algorithm processes color, pattern, and spatial data at high speed for reliable focus and tracking. If [Touch Tracking] is engaged, simply touch a subject on the monitor to instantly select it for tracking.
High-density 759-point focal plane phase-detection AF	759 AF points in a high-density focal plane phase-detection AF system cover approximately 94% of the image area for precise focusing. The processing engine processes the large amount of data from the image sensor in real time to ensure ideal focus even in challenging situations, such as when shooting small subjects or night scenes where focus often falls on the background.
Precise AF in low light	The latest AF algorithms achieve high AF precision down to light levels as low as EV-4.0 in AF-S mode (ISO 100 equivalent, F2.0 lens) so that AF is precise and reliable even in low light.
Pre-Capture for moments prior to shutter release	Capture that decisive moment, even if it’s in the past. With this feature, half-pressing the shutter button to set focus enables the camera to capture a series of images, starting from up to one second before the shutter button is fully deployed.
Speed boost for critical action shots	Use one-button Continuous Shooting Speed Boost to temporarily change the continuous shooting speed at any time while shooting a continuous burst. For example, you can instantly switch from the standard burst rate to a higher rate when the key moment approaches. This function is best used when you can roughly predict the timing of the desired shot, and it’s now available even while shooting single frames.
7K oversampled 4K 60p recording with full pixel readout and no pixel binning	The new BIONZ XR2 processor and Exmor RS sensor enable full pixel readout with no pixel binning when recording full-frame. This allows 3.3x the data required for 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) to be compressed into spectacularly detailed 4K 60p images with minimal moiré and jaggies.
Extreme stabilization with Dynamic active Mode	The Dynamic active Mode adds electronic stabilization to the optical stabilization system for even greater effect. This improves stabilization approximately 30% more than just Active Mode, making it possible to shoot smooth, stable images even when running around with the camera.
Auto Framing automatically adjusts composition	Auto Framing uses AI-based subject recognition to automatically keep the subject in a prominent position when shooting movies, even when the camera is stationary—ideal for shooting interviews, music performance, cooking and much more. You can also set the timing at which Auto Framing will begin, the size of the subject in the frame and the tracking speed. [1] LCD monitor [2] Recorded footage
S-Log3 supports post-production workflows	The S-Log3 gamma curve helps to maintain smooth, natural gradations from shadows to mid-gray (18% gray), making it easier to grade for high image quality in post-production. S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3.Cine color spaces are supported. Imported user LUTs (.cube) can be used as alternatives to the preset picture profiles (PPLUT 1 through 4) to provide the final graded output. [1] Before grading [2] Graded
Shot Marks facilitate still image extraction	Enable this function before shooting so that any frames marked with Shot Marks during movie recording are automatically extracted and saved as stills when recording has finished. You can also extract and save any other frames as stills after recording.
4-axis monitor maximizes shooting flexibility	The 4-axis multi-angle monitor adjusts upward by 98°, downward by 40°, and sideways by 180°, and when open, it can rotate up to 270º. Its 3.2-type 2.1 million dot (3:2 aspect ratio) touch sensitive display panel has a wide color gamut and provides clear viewing even in bright conditions. [Monitor Low Bright] reduces brightness and battery drain when the camera has not been used for a pre-settable amount of time.
Designed for comfort	The α7 V has been refined for improved hold and manageability to minimize fatigue, particularly when using heavy telephoto lenses or shooting for long periods of time. The grip fits comfortably in the palm of the hand while the location and angle of the shutter button have been carefully designed for effortless access.
Durable magnesium alloy chassis	A lightweight, high-rigidity magnesium alloy is used for the top cover, front cover, internal frame and rear cover. The grip and front cover are manufactured as a single unit for high rigidity, while the mount is attached by six screws for extra strength. This provides maximum durability on shoots requiring a variety of large, heavy lenses, like super-telephoto lenses.
Effective heat dissipation	Effective heat dissipation allows 4K 60p 4:2:0 8bit video to be recorded continuously for approximately 90 minutes. A unique Σ (sigma) shaped graphite component built into the image stabilization unit allows the image sensor, a major source of heat inside the camera body, to move freely during image stabilization while effectively conducting heat away for extremely efficient heat dissipation.
Two USB Type-C® ports	In an upgrade from its predecessor, the α7 V includes two USB Type-C ports support USB PD (Power Delivery) so that you can connect a compatible charger or mobile battery to supply power or charge the internal battery. Power Delivery capacity is now 3–4x higher than the α7 IV. PORT 1 supports SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps (USB 3.2) for high-speed backups and PC remote connection, while PORT 2 supports Hi-Speed USB 480 Mbps (USB 2.0) for USB communication.
Advanced Wi-Fi for wireless transfers and remote tethering	Built-in Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11ax) with 2×2 MIMO support provides high-speed wireless communication that has been significantly improved over the α7 IV. Communication on the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands offers maximum speed and stability with minimum interference for news and sports shooters who need to deliver immediately via FTP, as well as for studio environments.
Creators’ App	A smartphone application for file transfer, remote shooting, cloud storage management and more.
Imaging Edge Desktop	A desktop application that enhances the quality and efficiency of production work such as remote shooting and RAW development.
Camera Authenticity Solution (paid service)	Addressing concerns about fake images generated by AI, this system verifies image/video authenticity using unique meta-information from Sony cameras. This enables confirmation that an image was taken with a specific camera, accurately identifies real subjects, and ensures transparency in editing history per the C2PA format.
Sony’s goal: zero environmental footprint	Sony’s “Road to Zero” environmental plan aims to achieve a zero environmental footprint by 2050. To achieve that goal, we continue to refine every stage of our camera and accessory manufacturing and distribution cycle to minimize environmental stress, from development through production, packaging and transport.
Greater accessibility for all users	At Sony, we want everyone to enjoy digital imaging. The α7 V is equipped with accessibility features, such as a menu magnifier and a Screen Reader that reads an expanded range of menu items aloud. Advanced features, like AI-based Real-time Recognition AF for a wide range of subjects, intuitive touch operation for subject tracking, and many more make the joys of photography and moviemaking available to the widest possible range of users.
