Compact and lightweight The Sony A7C II Mirrorless Camera (Black) is the full-frame camera that serious creators have been waiting for. Packed with cutting-edge capture technology for both stills and movies, it’s the essential tool for capturing the world the way you want to.
Weighing just 429 grams, the full-frame α7C II offers impressive portability and manoeuvrability with exceptional performance. Featuring a state of the art 33.0-effective-megapixel image sensor that can record up to 4K 60p/50p movies as well as capture high-quality stills, it’s the essential tool for hybrid shooters.
Delivering excellent image quality in both stills and movies, the α7C II’s 33.0 megapixel Exmor R CMOS image sensor marks a significant step-up from its predecessor. The enhanced AF performance and improved noise reduction are supported by an impressively wide 15-stop dynamic range.
The advanced BIONZ XR processing engine delivers up to eight times more processing power than its predecessor. It minimises processing latency while boosting movie and still image processing power, achieving natural gradations, realistic colour, low noise, superior image quality and fast menu response.
The new high-powered BIONZ XR processing engine works with an advanced AE algorithm to detect the skin area of faces and adjust exposure accordingly for both stills and movies. This achieves consistent exposure control even in challenging shooting conditions when the subject is backlit, in shadow, over-illuminated in direct sunlight, or not directly facing the camera. It also produces more natural human skin tones and sky and foliage colours.
Set the visual mood with Creative Look, which offers 10 customisable presets so you can capture the world the way you want. The presets can be used as they are or eight parameters can be adjusted, including contrast, saturation, and shadows, allowing you to create instantaneously shareable stills and movies in-camera without the need for post-production editing. Customised Creative Look settings can be stored as Custom Look selections for later recall and use.
Lossless RAW image compression provides efficient compression for smaller file sizes with no loss in image quality, enabling the camera to shoot up to 32 frames in continuous bursts. There are three lossless-compression image sizes to suit any application, and a Light image quality selection that generates less data is provided for JPEG and HEIF images.
Handheld shooting for stills got even better, thanks to the α7C II’s high-precision image stabilisation unit, advanced gyro sensors, and optimised image stabilisation algorithms that effectively correct camera shake, achieving 7.0-step stabilisation. Compatible lenses with built-in image stabilisation combine with improved synchronisation between the body and lens to provide even more stable framing.
The α7C II is compatible with Sony’s extensive lineup of optically advanced E-mount lenses, including the G Master series that blends breathtaking resolution with exquisite bokeh, and the G Lens series with excellent image quality and smooth bokeh. Compact and lightweight, these lenses offer a wide range of photographic and videographic applications.
