Full-frame, palm-sized α with 5-axis image stabilization
Breathtaking image quality meets unrivaled shooting freedom in the α7 II, full-frame camera with 5-axis image stabilization.
Dramatically expand your range of expression by compensating for five types of camera shake while shooting still images and movies.
5-axis image stabilization lets you zoom, snap close-ups and capture night scenes with greater clarity. Compensation is equivalent to using a 4.5-step2 faster shutter speed.
Whenever fleeting photo opportunities arise, you can always depend on state-of-the-art Fast Hybrid AF.
Images are gorgeous from corner to corner, courtesy of Sony’s 35mm full-frame Exmor CMOS image sensor and BIONZ X™ image processing engine.
Stunning 24.3-megapixel resolution, low noise, an extremely wide dynamic range and subtle gradations.
High-speed processing faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye.
Create movies of breathtaking visual and sound quality with exquisite background blur and the sensitivity to bring dark scenes to vibrant life.
