The Sony a7R IV is the company’s fourth generation, high-resolution full-frame mirrorless camera and is built around a 60MP BSI-CMOS sensor. Relative to previous generations, it promises more robust build quality, refined controls, the company’s latest autofocus implementation, and more.
Despite its high resolution, it can shoot at up to 10 frames per second with full autofocus and shoot 4K video either from the full width of its sensor or from an APS-C/Super 35 crop. It also gains a 16-shot high-resolution mode that can be used to generate 240MP images of static scenes.
Key takeaways
- 60MP BSI CMOS full-frame sensor
- Powerful yet easy-to-use AF tracking system
- 10 fps burst shooting (12-bit Raw mode)
- 5.76M dot OLED viewfinder
- 4K video from full sensor width (sub-sampled) or oversampled from roughly-Super35 crops
- 4 or 16-shot high resolution modes (up to 240MP images for static subjects)
- S-Log 2, S-Log 3 and ‘HLG’ video modes (8-bit only)
As well as an increase in resolution, the a7R Mark IV sees an increase in price: at $ 3499, it’s being launched for $ 300 more than the a7R III was.
