Newly developed 33‑MP1 full-frame back-illuminated CMOS image sensorDelivering outstanding performance and excellent image quality in both stills and movies, the α7 IV’s new 33.0 megapixel1 Exmor R CMOS image sensor provides high-speed readout, high sensitivity, low noise and highly accurate colour reproduction. |
Flagship-level image processing with BIONZ XRThe α7 IV uses the latest image processor to offer greatly enhanced performance, with improved image quality and colour reproduction. Fast processing speeds facilitate comfortable continuous shooting as well as responsive operation while performing data transfers. |
Higher resolution, better colour reproductionThe new 33‑MP1 image sensor and processing engine raise the bar for image quality In addition to boasting a larger pixel count and higher resolution than the α7 III, the α7 IV and its powerful Exmor R sensor represent a significant evolution of Sony’s original image technology, for improvements that go beyond mere numbers. Experience new levels of colour gradation and detail rendering as well as soft, natural-looking human skin textures. |
Beautiful images with reduced noiseBuilding on the capabilities of the back-illuminated image sensor the BIONZ XR engine reveals even higher subjective resolution combined with exquisite detail and texture even in medium- and high-sensitivity ranges. Impressively low levels of noise are achieved throughout the standard range of ISO 100-51200 (expandable to ISO 50-204800 for stills and ISO 100-102400 for movies). |

Wide, 15-stop2 dynamic rangeTaking advantage of the camera’s full dynamic range of 15 stops2, the α7 IV uses image data from the sensor’s 33.0 megapixels1 to render remarkably delicate detail in landscapes and scenery. This stunning image quality is based on Sony’s unrivalled experience at the front lines of both still-image and movie creation. |
Quickly set the visual mood with ten Creative Look presetsA selection of ten Creative Look presets and eight parameters can quickly craft a mood for your still images, movies and live streams. And since no post-editing is needed, you can share your vision immediately after shooting. |
10-bit HEIF3 still-image format for smooth gradationsAlong with conventional RAW and JPEG, you can choose the HEIF (High Efficiency Image File) format for still-image capture. Smooth 10-bit colour depth provides realistic reproduction of skies and portrait subjects where subtle, natural gradation is essential. |
5-axis optical image stabilizationUp to 5.5-step4 shutter-speed compensation from the in-body stabilization unit The α7 IV’s high-precision stabilization unit and gyro sensors work together with image-stabilization algorithms to achieve up to 5.5 steps3 of shutter-speed compensation, to maximize the high-resolution performance of the camera’s 33.0‑MP1 image sensor. |

Fast Hybrid AF, evolvedThe Fast Hybrid AF system, combining phase-detection AF and contrast-detection AF, has evolved even further to achieve greater speed, accuracy and tracking performance. With Sony’s 4D FOCUS, a wide, dense AF area covers roughly 94% of the image area for both stills and movies with 759 phase-detection AF points. |
Sony’s smart AI-based Real-time Tracking9Sony’s unique subject recognition algorithm uses colour, pattern (brightness) and subject distance (depth) data to rapidly process spatial information in real time. AI is used to detect and track the eyes and face of the subject (human, animal or bird) with extremely high precision. Just select the subject to track, then leave it to the camera. |
Improved Real-time Eye AFKeeping the targeted eye in focus so you can concentrate on composition The high speed of the latest image-processing engine provides a significant boost to Real-time Eye AF performance, even when the subject is looking up, down or sideways. It is also possible to use Touch Tracking to initiate Real-time Tracking of any subject in the frame, simultaneously initiating Real-time Eye AF if an eye is detected, simply by touching the screen |
Pet photos made easyFast, accurate focus for difficult animal shots By setting the camera’s subject detection type to “Animal” in advance, you can automatically detect and track an animal’s eyes, for greater success in both wildlife shots and photos and movies of your pets at home. Animal-eye detection has been improved, with reliable tracking and accurate focus even when the animal’s face is upside down. Bird-eye detection supported for both still shots and movies For the first time in the α series, bird-eye detection is available in movies as well as still shots—simply preset the subject to “bird”. The camera’s astonishing speed and precision allow automatic tracking of a specific bird, whether it’s perched somewhere or in flight, keeping the eye in steady focus despite any fast and unpredictable movements. |

Focus Map to visualize depth of fieldAnswering a request from professional creators, the brand-new Focus Map feature lets you easily visualize depth of field when you’re shooting19. In use, focus (depth map) information is overlaid on a display of the live view in real time, so you can easily see which areas are in or out of focus. |
Choose your look, for more expressive moviesSupport for S-Cinetone, Creative Look and S-Log3 The S-Cinetone colour matrix, based on technology acquired through development of CineAlta cameras such as the VENICE, produces an impressive look with beautiful skin tones without post-editing. The Creative Look presets create other interesting visual moods in-camera, or you can use S-Log3 gamma to access the camera’s full dynamic range (15+ stops17) for smoother post-production workflows. |
Next-level image quality with 10-bit 4:2:2 recordingMake in-camera recordings with the amazing richness of 10-bit depth and 4:2:2 colour sampling, with either Long GOP or All-Intra frame encoding, for far greater flexibility in image grading, post-processing and compositing. |
Instantly turn your α7 IV into a web cameraAll it takes is a USB connection to turn the full-frame α7 IV into a high-performance webcam. There’s no need for complicated advance setup, just connect the camera to a computer or smartphone via USB26, select “Live Stream (USB Streaming),” and you’re set. |

Many criticize sony for saving on some features such as custom luts, heavy codecs, and monitoring capabilities, I think the situation here is similar to what happens in the world of mobile phones - iPhone just works despite all of its limitations, and Android manufacturers just throw more features and hardware to make a good impression.
As for this particular camera, it's like a sequel to Avatar... after A73 everyone expected it to be better in every regard, and that's exactly what Sony did. Its 10bit, its ALL-INTRA, its got h265 codec, its got the best eye tracking AF in the industry, its got slog3 and scinetone. There's just not much room to improve to impress customers anymore!
I see thermals on this camera are often criticized here. I tell you this; the only occasion where I had it overheating was a 6-hour straight interview, which we shot in one piece in 4K 10bit 422. It overheated 2 times that day. 6 hours! For run-and-gun type of shoots, it never overheats.
Also a lot of negative comments from people who clearly have no idea how to use a professional camera. They complain about "sensor issues" and "bending" while they shoot with fluorescent light at 30fps and their shutter at 1/250, they complain about overheating without even checking the "High temperature" menu, they argue that a 33PM sensor should allow 60fps from the full size of the sensor...
To all buyers I'd suggest taking it for what it is - $2500 FF camera, that does 33MP photos and 10 bit FF video in codecs comparable to prores all this with the industry's leading autofocus capabilities.
Amazing camera ...as expected! Had to wait for my copy for 2 months after the preorder upon release though.

I also don't recommend purchasing cameras on Amazon because they will take forever in giving you back your refund. Camera was sent back to the warehouse last November 18 and I still haven't received any updates on my refund. Contact customer service and they will all tell you the same thing - to wait. Never buying expensive electronics on Amazon again.
There are lots of benefits from A7C to A7iv however, if you are doing mostly video;
please stay far away. Sony A7iv gets very warm and frequently turns off due to overheating.
Another problem is that I've ordered a product from Amazon Warehouse deals and took a video unboxing it.
I found couple dust and ?scratch that I was not able to remove with my blower.
Amazon CS will not let me return it for free. ??? Buyers beware.

The other thing I noticed is how this camera body is about twice as thick as the original A7. If you liked how small the A7 was well... expect the A7IV to be more of the thickness of most other cameras. The thickness from what I understand is the sensor stabilization which by the way the original A7 didn't have. I used to use a monopod with the A7 because no stabilization meant handshake was a very real issue. With the A7IV I can get very sharp images in hand without worry.
One other thing. This camera's ISO has some dual sensor business going on. It's both a good and bad thing. It's good because if you shoot at 100ISO or 400ISO your images will look almost identical on noise. The bad is if you shoot at 125, 160, 200, 250 or 320. Someone that doesn't know this may get less sharp images when you need to increase ISO over 100. Do yourself a favor and just shoot at 100 and 400 for most instances then over 400 as usual.
I noticed reviewers complaining about the camera menu, but if your coming from another A7 you'll understand the menu quite easily.
All other specs were about what I expected. The massive increase in AF points, better video recording, full HDMI slot, dual SD card slots, etc. Also no wall charger for battery... really Sony? Don't be Apple please.
