The α7R VI offers extraordinary 66.8 MP resolution, 16-stops dynamic range, incredible image quality, and 30fps blackout-free burst speed, thanks to advanced imaging technology refined by feedback from discerning creators. A full system upgrade pushes performance to unprecedented heights.

66.8 MP full-frame fully-stacked CMOS Exmor RS™
The first in the α7R series to feature a fully-stacked Exmor RS image sensor, the A7R VI delivers enhanced image quality with readout speeds up to 5.6x faster. Take your shooting to the next level with 30 fps bursts at full resolution, 4K 60p without cropping, expanded dynamic range, and reliable low-light AF.

BIONZ XR2™ with integrated AI processing unit
The BIONZ XR2 engine with an integrated AI processing unit delivers dramatic improvements in image and sound quality, power management, and responsiveness. High-speed processing enables up to 60 AF/AE calculations per second, blackout-free shooting, and 8K video, while the integrated AI processing unit enhances subject recognition and illumination estimation for unprecedented shooting support.

Expansive creative potential
The fully-stacked Exmor RS image sensor delivers class-leading 66.8 MP resolution and superb image quality for landscapes, portraits, wildlife, and more. Shadow noise is minimized in high-dynamic-range landscapes, and portraits are captured with realistic skin tones.

Up to 16-stop dynamic range
Up to 16 stops of dynamic range at low sensitivities supports HDR processing. Outstanding resolution and high sensitivity capture stunning imagery throughout the ISO 100-32000 range. Noise in night scenes is also reduced.

Stable, accurate auto white balance
The Visible Light + IR Sensor works with deep learning-based illumination estimation to achieve stable, accurate auto white balance under any lighting. Together, they enable natural color reproduction in a wide variety of scenes.

Lifelike rendering of wide dynamic range scenes
The updated D-Range Optimizer (DRO) balances bright highlights and dark shadows and offers a wider range of strength settings, up to Lv8. At higher levels, DRO lifts shadow areas in strong backlight, delivering more natural-looking portrait shots.

Up to 8.5-step central and 7.0-step peripheral stabilization
Superb stabilization performance maximizes resolution, preventing degradation due to blur. Stabilization is even more effective with compatible lenses, and telephoto lens shake is also effectively suppressed.

Upgraded format options with lightweight RAW
A [Compressed (HQ)] RAW format has been added to the existing format, providing lightweight RAW files that enable continuous shooting while maintaining high image quality.

Blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30 fps with full AF/AE
Shoot bursts at up to 30 fps*3 at full 66.8 MP resolution, with AF/AE tracking and no viewfinder blackout. Up to 60 AF/AE calculations per second effortlessly track even complex subject movement. Plus, with the upgraded BIONZ XR2 processing engine and CFexpress Type A card support, capture up to 215 JPG and 65 Compressed (HQ) RAW images continuously.

Temporarily boost speed while shooting bursts
During continuous burst shooting, press an assigned custom button to change the shooting speed — for example, from 10 fps to 30 fps— when the key moment approaches. This feature can be used even while shooting single frames.

Full-frame 4K 60p video without cropping
Equipped with an upgraded image sensor and processing engine, the A7R VI is capable of 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) 60p and high frame rate 4K 120p recording without cropping. 4:2:2 color sampling and 10-bit depth further support high video quality.

8K movies for spectacular resolution
8K 30p movies can be recorded in XAVC HS format with 8.2K oversampling offering spectacular resolution. This is further enhanced by precision AF performance, along with natural gradations and colors. 8K also supports 4:2:2 10-bit recording.

Illuminated rear-panel buttons
Illuminated rear-panel buttons allow easy status checks and smooth operation even in very dark conditions. Button illumination can be turned on via the top-panel Backlight button.

Efficient heat management for up to 120 minutes of 8K recording
Sony’s Σ (sigma) graphite element and efficient heat management minimize sensor and processor overheating.
