Abstract generation in progress

Tech Home February 6 News, sources from SonyAlpha Rumors reported yesterday the detailed specifications of the Sony Alpha 7R VI camera.

According to the report, this camera is equipped with an 80-megapixel full-stack CMOS sensor, a significant upgrade from the previous model’s 61-megapixel backside-illuminated sensor. When using the mechanical shutter, it can achieve over 16 stops of dynamic range, and the electronic shutter’s dynamic range can also surpass that of the α7 V.

In terms of specifications, this camera features the new generation image processing engine BIONZ XR2, which significantly enhances data throughput. It can shoot at 30FPS in 14-bit RAW continuous shooting, with autofocus/tracking at up to 60FPS, and includes a pre-shooting function.

For video, this camera can record up to 8K 30P (10.9K full-frame oversampling), 4K 60P (7.1K APS-C oversampling), and 4K 120P video (5.5K pixel binning). However, it does not support advanced video features like Open Gate, in-camera RAW recording, or 6K HEVC.

Additionally, this camera’s readout speed is faster than the α7V, but its technical specifications are about one-third of the α1 II. It features a more advanced display with a peak brightness 50% higher than the α1 II, and a pixel density higher than the α7V. The ergonomic design has also been reworked, making the grip more comfortable than that of the α1 II. Currently, it is in small-scale testing, with an expected release in November.
