Shoot up to 828 RAW JPEG frames in a burst using CFexpress Type A cards.Video Recording4K 60p Video Recording in 10-BitRecord UHD 4K at 30p using 7K oversamplingCapture oversampled 4.6K to 4K 60p video with Super 35 cropUnlimited recording time with improved heat dissipationSupports XAVC HS (H.265) and XAVC S-I (Intra-frame, up to 600 Mb/s)Includes S-Cinetone, S-Log3, and HLG for color grading and HDR-ready contentS-Cinetone, S-Log3, and Other Color and Gamma ControlsS-Cinetone can be used to deliver distinct colors and healthy-looking skin tone rendering that matches the FX9 and FX6 cameras, along with the a1 and a7S III, and is based on technology from the professional Cinema Line cameras, such as the VENICE. This color profile offers natural mid-tones, soft colors, and especially well-controlled highlights.HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) support permits recording within a wide color gamut for producing HDR-ready content directly from the camera.S-Log3 is also available for producing a 15 -stop dynamic range with increased grading control in the shadow to mid-tone regions of the image.Fast Hybrid AF SystemAI-Based AutofocusSony a7 IV Covering approximately 94% of the image area, a Fast Hybrid AF system incorporates 759 phase-detection points for quick and precise focusing in a variety of lighting conditions with sensitivity down to -4 EV. This focusing system is available for use in all recording modes, to benefit both video and stills applications.Real-time Tracking and Real-time Eye AFBorrowing from the flagship AF system, the Sony a7 IV Body has tuned tracking and subject detection capabilities that lock onto subjects quickly and refines focus accurately on recognized eyes and faces of subjects:Real-time Tracking is an AI-based subject recognition system that recognizes color, pattern, and subject distance information for high accuracy and focusing speed.Beyond just tracking subjects, Real-time Eye AF fine-tunes the focusing accuracy and recognizes human, animal, and bird’s eyes for critical sharpness. Real-time Eye AF even maintains focus on a subject’s eye when they leave and re-enter the frame, allowing for working in more spontaneous shooting situations.Sony a7 IVAF During Video Recording and Additional Focusing ModesReal-time Eye AF is fully supported during video recording, for subject detection and tracking of human, animal, and bird eyes while shooting.For more control over how focus shifts appear during recording, seven-step AF transition speeds and five-step AF subject shift sensitivity controls let you refine how quickly focus shifts from point to point and how smoothly focusing shifts occur.Focus Map is a unique way of visualizing depth of field and functions in a similar way to peaking with a colorful overlay of the scene that indicates which parts of the scene are in front of and behind the focus point depending on the chosen aperture.A feature carried over from the FX6 digital cine camera, AF Assist lets you intuitively switch over to manual focus control for adjusting focus position when working with AF. This is a quick way to shift selective focus between various subjects in a scene while recording.A unique solution to compensate for how certain lenses perform when racking focus, Focus Breathing compensation will automatically smooth focus transitions and maintain a consistent field of view when changing the focus position during a shot. This mode crops into the image slightly and corrects for any detected shifts in composition when focusing is happening. This function is compatible with select E-mount lenses, check Breathing Compensation lens compatibility here.Body Design, Connectivity, and StreamingViewfinder and LCD Screen – Sony a7 IV3.68m-dot OLED EVF with 120fps refresh rate3.0” vari-angle touchscreen LCD – perfect for vlogging and low/high angle shootingPorts and Interface – Sony a7 IVFull-size HDMI-A, USB-C (3.2 Gen 2), micro-USB, headphone & mic jacksSupports digital audio with ECM-B1M or XLR-K3MWired LAN support via USB adapter5-Axis SteadyShot INSIDE Image Stabilization – Sony a7 IV – bodyGet up to 5.5 stops of stabilization, ideal for handheld shooting with any lens.
