α7R II with back-illuminated full-frame image sensor
Define the next dimension
With an incomparable new image sensor
Now, even more comprehensive quality enters the picture. With the world’s first back-illuminated 35 mm full-frame CMOS image sensor with 42.4 megapixels, the Sony α7R II takes image resolution, sensitivity (up to ISO 102,400)
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 entirely throughout the frame, while 5-axis image
stabilization reduces blur which otherwise tends to affect handheld
shots. High resolution is further enhanced by 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.
The world's most selected image sensors
Faster, smarter, truer processing
The
BIONZ X™ image processing engine efficiently and finely tunes the new
image sensor’s vast 42.4-megapixel data for 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 resolution even higher
Great
performance achieves its full potential accompanied by 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 employs no optical low-pass filter that can
compromise high resolution. To reduce image blur, the camera’s newly
developed reduced-vibration shutter minimizes and Silent Shooting mode
eliminates camera shake caused by shutter movement. And a growing family
of FE lenses lets you witness more of the incomparable clarity that the
sensor delivers from every perspective.
Make every shot look sharper
Without
an optical low-pass filter that can compromise image clarity, the α7R
II lets you take full advantage of the high-resolution image sensor and
superior resolving power of α lenses.
Take a more steady, assured shot
The new shutter cuts vibration by about 50%
and you can use the electronic front curtain for even less vibration
and noise, so the shutter is durable enough to have been tested to
500,000 cycles.
No camera shake from shutter movement
The
Silent Shooting mode features an electronic shutter that is noiseless
and causes no curtain vibration, so you can shoot high-resolution images
without camera shake.
Full clarity with all lenses in a wide FE lineup
All
FE lenses (35 mm full-frame compatible E-mount lenses) are developed
for full-frame sensors to employ ever-higher pixel counts, so they make
the most of the 42.4-megapixel performance.
Fast Hybrid AF sharpens up
Thanks
to an advanced image sensor and AF algorithm, the α7R II’s Fast Hybrid
AF system delivers far superior AF coverage, speed and tracking
performance.
More continuous shooting capability
Fast readout and advanced algorithm make predictive subject tracking extra-precise for 5fps shooting.
Fast Hybrid AF for movies
This system’s extra-precise, smooth focusing perfectly suits the higher requirements of 4K movies.
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 optimized for recording 4K (QFHD: 3,840 x
2,160) movies, particularly in Super 35 mm format, as it processes
readout data from every pixel without pixel binning, to effectively
suppress jaggies and more. The resulting footage exhibits visibly
sharper, finer, more subtle detail than typical 4K movies. Also, as the
first2
full-frame camera that can record movies at 4K resolution in the 35 mm
full-frame format, the α7R II extends your power to express qualities of
vision that the newly developed, back-illuminated full-frame image
sensor makes possible.

Frame as you see fit
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-bitrate XAVC S format
XAVC
S format now supports 4K recording at maximum 100 Mbps bitrate 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, smarts 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.
