Sony Alpha 7 IV Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera
The Sony Alpha 7 IV is a full-frame mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera featuring a 33MP back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor designed to deliver detailed still images and high-resolution video. The camera combines its latest-generation sensor with the BIONZ XR image processor to support continuous shooting, improved colour reproduction, high-resolution image capture, and responsive operation across a variety of shooting situations.
The Alpha 7 IV supports 10-bit HEIF image capture, providing greater colour depth and accuracy for still photography. Its 5-axis optical image stabilization combines the in-body stabilization unit with gyro sensors to provide up to 5.5 steps of shutter-speed compensation, helping reduce the effects of camera movement during handheld shooting.
The camera features a Fast Hybrid AF system that combines phase-detection autofocus and contrast-detection autofocus for fast focusing performance. The supplied specifications identify autofocus as a key feature of the camera, while the BIONZ XR processor works with the imaging system to support improved autofocus performance and overall shooting responsiveness.
Designed as a hybrid stills and video camera, the Alpha 7 IV provides 3840 x 2160 video recording and includes dedicated functionality for both still-image and movie shooting. A dedicated control design allows users to switch between still-image and video settings, with an additional dial provided for easier operation across both shooting purposes.
The supplied product information identifies a Wi-Fi-enabled body with exposure control, low-light functionality, HD movie mode, and shock-resistant construction. The camera is finished in black, has a listed body-only configuration, and is supplied with one camera in the box. The listed specifications also identify dust-resistant properties for use in demanding shooting environments.
