With an incomparable new image sensor

Now, even more comprehensive quality enters the picture. With the world’s first back-illuminated 35mm full-frame CMOS image sensor with 42.4 megapixels, the Sony α7R II takes image resolution, sensitivity (up to ISO 102400) and speedy response to new heights. The Fast Hybrid AF system's dense extra-wide focal plane phase-detection AF coverage keeps a subject in sharp focus throughout the entire frame, while 5-axis image stabilization reduces blur which otherwise tends to affect handheld shots. High resolution is further enhanced by a 4K movie recording featuring full pixel readout without pixel binning. With so much insight packed into such a compact form, it's clear that there is more to life than meets the naked eye.

World’s first back-illuminated full-frame sensor

Higher resolution, sensitivity and readout speed

As the world’s first 35 mm full-frame image sensor with back-illuminated structure, this 42.4-megapixel CMOS sensor enhances light collection efficiency, expands circuitry scale, and, with the help of a quick-transmission copper wiring layer, outputs data about 3.5 times faster, while minimizing image noise to reveal fine details in every picture.

Faster, smarter, truer processing

The BIONZ X™ image processing engine fine-tunes the new image sensor's vast 42.4-megapixel data efficiently giving truer, clearer, more natural, low-noise image depiction.

New 14-bit uncompressed RAW format

Now more format options to choose from, for unbeatable quality and range of tonal nuance.

Clearer, more vibrant images

Advanced features raise the resolution even higher

Great performance achieves its full potential with an array of innovative features. With an outstanding 42.4-megapixel count, the new image sensor in the α7R II lets you explore the world in remarkable detail and the camera does not use an optical low-pass filter that can compromise high resolution. To reduce image blur, the camera's newly developed reduced-vibration shutter minimizes camera shake caused by shutter movement and Silent Shooting mode eliminates it. And a growing family of FE lenses lets you see more of the incomparable clarity that the sensor delivers from every perspective.

Advantages of the phase-detection AF are assured even with an A-mount lens mounted via LA-EA3 (LA-EA1).

Always keep the eye in focus

Eye AF (available with AF-C) not only shows fast, effective autofocusing performance with eye detection but also keeps steadfast tracking on the eye of a moving subject. Easy maintenance of optimum focus on moving subjects can totally transform your portraiture.

5-axis image stabilization in full-frame glory

Fine-tuned for high-resolution image sensors

To optimize the benefit of the α7R II's amazing high-resolution capability, especially when shooting unpredictable action or while you're in motion, the act of shooting should be as steady as possible — otherwise, even slight camera shake can risk blurring the shot. The 5-axis image stabilization system is carefully fine-tuned to match the 42.4-megapixel performance of the α7R II, so you can zoom in on faraway subjects, shoot close-ups and capture night scenes with minimal camera shake blur to achieve maximum clarity.

4K movie quality hits an all-time high

The ultimate high-resolution movie experience

You can see how the α7R II is optimised for recording 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) movies, particularly in Super 35 mm format, as it processes readout data from every pixel without pixel binning, thus effectively suppressing jaggies and moire. The resulting footage exhibits visibly sharper, finer, more subtle detail than typical 4K movies. Also, as the first full-frame camera that can record movies at 4K resolution in the 35 mm full-frame format, the α7R II extends your ability to express visual qualities that the back-illuminated full-frame image sensor makes possible.

Shoot footage in proper perspective

Select full-frame or Super 35 mm format when shooting in Full HD or 4K resolution, depending on your creative intentions. Either way, everything looks brilliant from edge to edge.

High-bit-rate XAVC S format

XAVC S format now supports 4K recording at maximum 100 Mbps bit rate as well as Full HD recording at 50 Mbps, so the α7R II can capture movies filled with finely detailed movement.

Ready for the long run

Focus on strength, smart features and reliability

The α7R II is the toughest, most durable α camera ever made, solidly engineered for action under all conditions, even with large lenses attached. It's also designed with sophistication, integrating advanced functions that seamlessly complement the image sensor's extraordinary 42.4-megapixel high resolution.
