The Sony a7 V is a full-frame mirrorless interchangeable lens camera, supplied with the 28-70mm II lens. It uses a partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor with approximately 33.0 effective megapixels and a BIONZ XR2 image processing engine with built-in AI. The sensor reads out about 4.5x faster and allows a maximum shutter speed of 1/16000 sec.
Autofocus uses 759 phase-detection points on the focal plane. Real-time Recognition AF uses human pose estimation and recognizes a wider range of subjects. The camera shoots blackout-free bursts at up to 30 fps with full AF/AE tracking. Pre-Capture records moments before the shutter is released, and a one-button speed boost temporarily raises burst speed.
For video, it records 7K oversampled 4K at 60p with full pixel readout and no pixel binning, and 4K at up to 120p. Active Mode and Dynamic active Mode stabilization support handheld shooting. Auto Framing adjusts composition automatically, and S-Log3 supports post-production workflows. The body has a magnesium alloy chassis and a dust and moisture resistant design.
