Description

Sony A7 V Mirrorless Camera (ILCE7M5B.CEC) brings professional-grade speed and intelligence to a compact full-frame body that’s ready for any creative challenge. With AI-powered autofocus, 33 MP of stunning detail, and 4K 120p video, it delivers outstanding results for hybrid creators who demand both precision and freedom. From fast-moving subjects to intimate portraits and cinematic scenes, the Alpha 7 V ensures your vision is captured exactly as you imagined – an experience that truly goes Beyond Standard, giving every creator the freedom to realise their full potential.

Capture Every Instant

Shoot at up to 30 fps with blackout-free continuous shooting and pre-capture that records moments even before you press the shutter. Track fast-moving subjects without ever losing sight, making it ideal for bird, wildlife, or sports enthusiasts who want to catch every decisive moment with absolute clarity.

True-To-Life Image Quality 

Capture outstanding image quality in both photo and video, thanks to the newly developed 33.0 MP partially stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor and advanced BIONZ XR2 processor. Delivering up to 16 stops of dynamic range, rich colour depth and beautifully low noise, the Alpha 7 V brings every scene to life, from epic golden-hour landscapes to vibrant city nights, with stunning depth and clarity.

Smarter Autofocus for Every Subject

Powered by the latest BIONZ XR2 processor, the Alpha 7 V uses advanced AI to recognise and track people, animals, birds, insects, cars, and more, with precise eye detection for both humans and animals. Real-time Recognition AF keeps focus locked in both photo and video, even when subjects move unpredictably, so every frame stays razor-sharp and your creativity remains uninterrupted.

Cinematic Video Made Simple 

Record stunning 4K 120p (Super 35) or 4K 60p (full-frame) in 10-bit 4:2:2 for silky slow-motion and professional-grade colour grading. S-Cinetone™ and LUT preview support make it easy to achieve cinematic looks straight from camera.

Confidence in Every Shot

Experience reliability and mobility like never before with up to 7.0-step in-body image stabilisation that keeps every frame steady, even when shooting handheld in low light. The refined grip and 4-axis vari-angle LCD monitor make comfortable, flexible shooting effortless from any angle—so you can focus fully on the moment.

Ready for Real-World Shooting

Built for demanding shoots, the Alpha 7 V combines efficient heat dissipation and extended battery life for longer recording without interruption. Transfer your images and videos seamlessly via Creator’s App—wired or wirelessly—for effortless sharing and remote control. With a durable, weather-resistant body, the Alpha 7 V is ready to perform anywhere your creativity takes you.
