Sony has finally announced the A7 V, the eagerly anticipated successor to the very popular A7 IV.
Naturally, the A7 V packs a host of upgrades. Inside, it has a 33-megapixel full-frame sensor that has a partially-stacked design. It also has Sony’s newest Bionz XR2 processor, which has a dedicated AI chip for improved autofocus, subject detection, and auto white balance. The five-axis in-body image stabilisation system has also been improved and is now rated for up to 7.5 stops.
The rear screen is now fully articulating.

On the outside, the design hasn’t changed much. The grip has been tweaked slightly, and the fully articulating rear screen is borrowed from the A7R V. The screen is slightly larger at 3.2 inches and has a higher resolution of 2.09M dots. The resolution of the EVF is unchanged at 3.69M dot, but it has a higher refresh rate of up to 120Hz.
