Sony Alpha 7R IV Full-frame Interchangeable Lens Mirrorless Camera (Body Only)

OVERVIEW:

Another Milestone: Virtuoso expression. Sony’s full-frame mirrorless α7R IV reveals ever more overwhelming photographic vision, with expressive prowess once expected only in medium-format cameras, and remarkably high speed in a compact body. See how its enhanced rigidity and connectivity raise your productivity.

Ever more inspiring: Enter a whole new world of photographic expression with incomparable image quality and processing speed. A powerful new choice joins the α7R series with ever more advanced connectivity and enhanced reliability demanded by pros.

Unimagined subtlety: 61.0-megapixel1 full-frame Exmor R™ CMOS sensor combined with BIONZ X™ imaging engine delivers unprecedented resolution, fine gradation, and low noise to open entirely new dimensions of detail just as pro photographers expect. The α7R IV captures the mood of each scene and the texture of aimed subjects.

In-body 5-axis image stabilization: The in-body 5-axis image stabiliser algorithm is optimised to maximize high-resolution 61.0-megapixel1 image sensor performance. This fully supports your handheld shooting for reliability as effective as 5.5-stop4 higher shutter speed.

Shoot in absolute silence: Silent shooting not only provides a useful advantage in venues where quiet is required but avoids vibration that can cause camera-shake blur. A vibration-free shutter maximizes the extremely high α7R IV resolution for crisp clear images.

Blur reducing structure: A re-examined and redesigned mechanism infixes the shutter unit to suppress subtle camera shake, and enhanced image stabiliser algorithm effectively reduces image blur. Overall, the camera's high resolution is successfully maintained.

Shake-free remote shutter release: Remote camera operation using the optional wireless remote controller (RMT-P1BT) allows you to shoot effective stills while avoiding camera shake caused by pressing the shutter release. This maximizes the image sensor’s high resolution.

The highest-level burst speed in its class: Regardless of remarkable image resolution, the a7R IV maintains its shooting speed of up to 10fps with a mechanical shutter (up to 8fps in live-view continuous shooting mode).7 This allows you to capture decisive moments — such as motion of wild animals — with subtle details made possible only by the 61.0MP high-resolution imaging capability.

Useful 26.2 MP with APS-C cropping: Thanks to extraordinary image resolution, you can still maintain remarkable high-resolution images at approximately 26.2 megapixels even after cropping a full-frame image down to APS-C size. This means the α7R IV can help you proactively utilize 61.0-megapixel full-frame shooting, for example, in bird photography that tends to require cropping editing to magnify captured images.

High-precision AF in low-light conditions: Advanced AF algorithms contribute to AF precision at light levels as low as EV-3. The ‘Focus Priority in Aperture Drive’ option is for more accurate focusing in dim lighting and when the aperture is stopped down.

Shoot up to 68 images continuously: Because buffer memory size is 1.5 times larger, the camera maintains a burst shooting speed of up to approx. 68 images. With APS-C shooting mode, you can shoot approximately three times more photos than with full-frame shooting mode.

Dual media slots, both supporting UHS-II: Both SLOT 1 and SLOT 2 are compatible with UHS-I and UHS-II for fast mass-volume data writing. The α7R IV can simultaneously or relay record, separate RAW/JPEG data and stills/movies and copy data between cards.

Extend shooting to professional length: The α7R IV uses a high-capacity NP-FZ100 battery. For longer hours of shooting, combine this with the optional VG-C4EM Vertical Grip holding up to two NP-FZ100 batteries, which allows you to shoot two times more shots than with α7R IV.

ely on smart AI-based Real-time Tracking: AI-based Real-time Tracking11 is newly featured to greatly increase your success rate in challenging shots. Simply designate a subject and press the shutter button halfway, and rely on the camera to steadfastly track the subject. With "Face/Eye Priority in AF" function, the α7R IV seamlessly changes tracking targets between face and eye when the subject is a person.

Technology basis for Real-time Tracking: Sony's original AI (Artificial Intelligence) subject recognition technology and algorithm process large volume data captured by the image sensor in real time, tracking moment-to-moment subject changes with a high degree of accuracy. Color, pattern, subject distance, human face and eye information are used for highly accurate subject recognition.

Real-time Eye AF with animal eye tracking for more success: Thanks to an improved algorithm, the α7R IV now supports animal eye in addition to human eye tracking12, allowing fast, precise, automatic detection and tracking. This animal eye support will greatly increase your success in capturing images of animals in the wild or favourite pets at home when an obstacle comes into view or the camera’s horizontal/vertical orientation often changes.

Real-time Eye AF: evolution of portraiture: Real-time Eye AF represents the evolution of portrait shooting. This AI-aided technology provides immediate, accurate eye detection and tracking for crisp, clear focus on the subject’s face, even when capturing a fast-moving model in a photo session. The photographer can concentrate on composition — for smoother workflow that counts with pros.

Wireless and wired connective solutions for demanding pros: The α7R IV supports various options for PC Remote functions and means of data transfer including 5 GHz15 Wi-Fi. Take full advantage of more choice and convenience in remote shooting operation and data backup.
