The combination of the high-resolution sensor and these processors enables new breakthroughs in subject recognition and capture for both still photography and video.

The new Alpha 7R V offers 61.0MP still images plus the most effective 8-step image stabilisation system ever offered in any of Sony’s Alpha cameras, as well as refined 8K movie output, a new 4-axis multi-angle monitor, high-speed communication functions, high-level operability and smooth workflow integration.

Sony’s newest camera is ideal for professionals who need a first-class high-resolution imaging tool.

Speaking on the announcement, Mukesh Srivastava, Head of Digital Imaging Business at Sony India, said We are excited to introduce the all-new Alpha 7R V camera with high-resolution and extremely advanced AI processing unit which offers best-in-class autofocus performance. This newest addition to our Alpha 7R lineup is a perfect example of our persistent efforts to offer best-in-class imaging experience and new level of creative freedom to professionals.
