Sony A7 V

Released in December 2025, the Sony A7 V is a full-frame hybrid mirrorless camera built around a 33 MP partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor and the BIONZ XR2 processor with integrated AI processing. Compared with the A7 IV, the new sensor reads out much faster, helping reduce rolling shutter and enabling blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30 fps with full AF/AE tracking. For filmmakers, the camera records oversampled 4K up to 60p using the full-frame sensor width and 4K up to 120p in APS-C / Super 35 mode. It is a versatile body for commercial work, events, interviews, documentary production and hybrid photo-video assignments.

Faster partially stacked sensor and improved autofocus

The biggest change from the A7 IV is the 33 MP partially stacked Exmor RS sensor. Sony states that its readout is approximately 4.5 times faster than the previous generation, which improves responsiveness and noticeably reduces rolling-shutter distortion during fast movement. The autofocus system uses up to 759 phase-detection points and AI-based subject recognition for people, animals, birds, insects, cars, trains and airplanes. This makes the A7 V particularly useful for unpredictable subjects and productions where the operator needs reliable continuous tracking rather than repeated manual focus corrections.

4K 60p full-frame and 4K 120p slow motion

Video recording reaches UHD 4K 120p, with 10-bit 4:2:2 options available in supported XAVC formats. 4K 60p can be recorded using the full-frame angle of view, while 4K 100/120p uses an APS-C / Super 35 crop. Full HD slow motion reaches up to 240 fps in S&Q mode using the APS-C / Super 35 image area. The camera supports S-Log3, S-Cinetone and HLG workflows, as well as user LUTs and focus-breathing compensation with compatible lenses. The A7 V does not offer Open Gate recording or internal RAW video recording.

Up to 16 stops of dynamic range and stronger stabilization

Sony rates the A7 V for up to 16 stops of dynamic range, giving filmmakers additional flexibility when working with high-contrast scenes and log recording. The 5-axis sensor-shift stabilization system is rated at up to 7.5 stops of compensation in the centre of the frame and 6.5 stops at the periphery under Sony’s test conditions. Standard, Active and Dynamic Active stabilization modes are available for video, giving operators additional options when shooting handheld.

Professional connectivity and recording media

The camera includes a full-size HDMI Type-A output capable of up to 4K 60p 4:2:2 10-bit output, two USB-C ports, 3.5 mm microphone and headphone connections and Sony’s Multi Interface Shoe with digital audio support. Slot 1 accepts both CFexpress Type A and SD UHS-I/II cards, while Slot 2 accepts SD UHS-I/II cards. This combination allows the camera to fit comfortably into compact cinema, interview and monitoring setups while remaining small enough for gimbal or handheld work.
