Higher resolution, sensitivity, and readout speed
Sony introduces an industry leading full-frame 35mm format back-side illuminated image sensor with an amazing 42.4-megapixel CMOS sensor. The detailed imager enhances light collection efficiency while expanding the circuitry scale. Helping to maximize the output of data, quick-transmission copper wiring layer renders information about 3.5 times faster4, while still reducing image noise to reveal fine details in every photograph.
Faster, smarter, truer processing
Having the vast amount of pixel information that the new 42.4 MegaPixel CMOS senor produces, it must be partnered with a processor as fiercely capable. Enter the new BIONZ XTM 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.
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 ?7R 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.
Fast Hybrid AF sharpens up
Thanks to an advanced image sensor and AF algorithm, the ?7R II's Fast Hybrid AF system delivers far superior AF coverage, speed and tracking performance. 399 AF points cover 45% of the total image area - more7 than any other digital camera can match. Accelerated data readout (thanks to back-illuminated sensor) and the Fast Hybrid AF system raise AF speed by 40%4.
